Touré seems to think he really had conservatives on the ropes with this hot take:
I wonder why the intense and relentless curiosity that the right had around Benghazi is totally absent regarding Niger. I wonder why…

Where to start?
Probably cuz they aren’t the same in almost any way

And he heard about it in almost every way:
Maybe because no one ordered the UN Ambassador to go on all the Sunday shows and tell lies about a video causing the attack?

I wonder why a truther can't distinguish the facts between special forces and an unguarded ambassador. https://t.co/gaOA1FsIrZ

Where would you like to start? Niger isn't being blamed on a YouTube video while arresting the guy who made it. https://t.co/USSOZ1Wcwl

Your haste to conflate the two makes for a far more interesting question.

Was a YouTube filmmaker blamed for it and arrested? Did the admin publicly lie about what happened while privately acknowledging fault?

Govt officials didn't lie & cover it up? https://t.co/qPh5l6ELmF

You really show your ignorance of both of these tragedies. There is nothing similar between the two.

Niger – a military mission
Benghazi- an abandonment of our people – with NO backup plan..— Dominick DiNardo (@dinardodp) October 19, 2017
There is a YouTube video out there you can watch to get a better answer https://t.co/iK84DkoLmw

Did they beg before hand for help and were ignored?

Because the evacuation and quick reaction force took 30 minutes, unlike 13 hours. Do you people even take YOURSELVES seriously? https://t.co/rbZZRR1wIi

French forces there to save them unlike Benghazi where we didn't deploy planes from Aviano and could have. Because secret CIA base

Because no one is blaming Niger on a YouTube video. https://t.co/HrLwbXALui

Because Niger was an inherently dangerous special ops mission and Benghazi was a supposedly secure consulate? https://t.co/97KZqIOeCc

This person has ABSOLUTELY no idea what happened in Benghazi….probably never bothered to find out. https://t.co/aFSu31H0g3

I wonder why the intense and relentless curiosity that the left has around Niger Is limited to the last two weeks of history https://t.co/hpGyOtOPOD
