Clinton calls Libya attack work of 'small and savage group'

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton condemned on Wednesday an attack that killed the US ambassador to Libya as the work of a "small and savage group" but said US-Libyan ties would not suffer.

"I ask myself, how could this happen? How could this happen in a country we helped liberate, in a city we helped save from destruction?" Clinton said. "This question reflects just how complicated and, at times, how confounding the world can be." (Reuters)
