Intelligence versions 2.T Text Newly leaked memos from the Obama Administration about last year's killing of the U.S. ambassador in Libya show they were edited heavily to remove references about a possible al Qaeda link. Media outlets reporting that emails between the State Department, White House and Intelligence agencies went through multiple versions and extensive edits to create the so-called talking point memos that explained the attack. In one email exchange, the State Department's top spokeswoman at the time objected to mentioning groups suspected of being behind the attacks in case the information could be used against the State Department by members of Congress. The attack on the US consulate in Benghazi last September killed the U.S. ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. A US naval strike group led by the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Nimitz arrived in South Korea for joint naval exercises likely to draw strong response from North Korea. The Nimitz made a port (of) call at the southeastern port city of Busan today for a three-day stay to participate in joint military drills. Ｔ
