A damning new congressional report released Tuesday concluded that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was responsible for reducing security at the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi and that the Obama administration lied to cover it up.

Five Republican-led House committees conducted what is still an ongoing investigation into the Benghazi terrorist attack that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other diplomats on Sept. 11, 2012.

The interim report determined Clinton approved cutting security at the consulate prior to the attack – a fact that “contradicts her testimony before the House Foreign Affairs Committee on January 23, 2013,” the report noted.

Committee members also concluded that the Obama administration not only lied to the American people in saying that protests over an anti-Muslim YouTube video prompted the attack, but that it also deliberately altered the CIA talking points used by U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice to cover up the inadequacies in Clinton’s State Department.

“Contrary to Administration rhetoric, the talking points were not edited to protect classified information,” the report said. “Concern for classified information is never mentioned in email traffic among senior Administration officials.”

According to the report, the House committees will continue to investigate the Benghazi attack:

These preliminary findings illustrate the need for continued examination and oversight by the five House Committees. The Committees will continue to review who exactly was responsible for the failure to respond to the repeated requests for more security and for the effort to cover up the nature of the attacks, so that appropriate officials will be held accountable.
