During an interview with Fox News reporter James Rosen, Secretary of State John Kerry explained that the Obama administration was doing whatever was necessary to bring the terrorists responsible for the attacks in Benghazi to justice.

Kerry revealed that he spoke to the FBI director about the investigation who assured that the bureau was doing everything they could.

“He told me, literally on the eve of his departure to go to Tripoli in order to talk with people, that they are doing everything they can within the FBI to conduct their investigation and to lay the groundwork in order to be able to bring justice,” Kerry said.

Rosen reminded Kerry that it had been six months since the terror attacks occurred at the U.S. consulate in Libya – killing four Americans.

“Justice sometimes takes a while when you operate by high standards and when you need the levels of evidence that we do,” Kerry insisted. “But we are working at it, and we will continue to work at it.”
