Also, I imagine the main reason for the large amount of embassy closures is a forced overreaction due to Benghazi. Why would Obama risk it?

With regards to the NSA, it cannot be viewed as black and white. Yes, the NSA surveillance will stop some terrorist attacks. No, that does not automatically justify the extent of the program.



Edit: Also, Obama didn't mention if this was NSA doings or not.

He didn't specify which countries posed the greatest threat. He also wouldn't say whether the U.S. learned of the threat through National Security Agency Surveillance programs.
