gregory hicks said when he got there, there were 30 security personnel. think there were only six on the day of the attack. so he was obviously left exposed. it doesn't seem that the committee is really interested if they aren't going to include what gregory hicks has told them. >> steve? >> yeah. i think that's right. by leaving that out, it allowed the committee to target and criticize bureaucracies and buildings as charles argued rather than assign blame to individual people. what hicks did was very specifically and in great detail lay out othe blame. he pointed to leon panetta and said panetta basically overruled stephens. that was a problem. nobody would call that part of the senate intelligence committee report a white wash, but it certainly could have been more specific. it's a shame that it didn't include his account in any way. >> meantime new fox news poll out. the first one blame for benghazi. can you see that secretary clinton, former secretary of state gets a great deal at 28% and some at 32%. there you see the breakdown. so basically 60 o% i

chris stevens was not responsible for the reduction in security personnel, hicks writes. his requests for additional security were denied or ignored. officials at the state and defense departments in washington made the decisions that resulted in reduced security. cables signed by stevens in the months leading up to attacks first disclosed by fox news show he had repeatedly warned washington about the deteriorating environment in benghazi. hicks then claimed it was then defense secretary leon panetta who without consulting stevens shifted the special forces team from personnel protection to a training mission and that it was undersecretary of state patrick kennedy, the powerful foreign service officer who oversees all state department buildings and personnel worldwide that rejected d.o.d.'s offer. >> so many of the decisions seemed to be at ambassador kennedy's level or higher. >> reporter: republicans on the senate intelligence committee said kennedy bears a specific responsibility for the security failures at benghazi. >> we look at every location. there were 234 incide
