Questions about Benghazi-gate

Perhaps this has been addressed in the Benghazi-gate investigation, but I haven't seen it. The reason the CIA was there was to recover weapons which had fallen into the hands of al-qaeda, and which were being funneled to Syria to support anti-regime forces there. OK. Now brushing aside the deaths of the Americans (who were there for that purpose), are tons of weapons still being moved to Syria and are there still Americans in Libya attempting to either run guns or find weapons? The cover up is only part of the story (because of the election), but isn't what we were doing there also important to investigate? It looks like Congress wasn't consulted on any of this.

Another question I have about Benghazi-gate has to do with Jill Kelley, the Lebanese born Floridian socialite who parties with military big-wigs and is a close friend of Petraeus and his “betray us” wife. The FBI got into this, so we're told, because Kelley asked a friend who was in the FBI to find out who was sending her masked e-mails. Tell me how common is this and do we need to be concerned about the FBI, or any agency of government/police, checking up on private individuals as a favor for friends? And yet, asking for ID when voting is a violation of something imaginary?

While that FBI guy was doing something for a friend, another FBI guy much, much higher up saw no need to alert the President that the head of the CIA could be involved in something that could impact national security. Really? What sort of instruction do FBI members get on responsibility, authority, morality, lines of reporting, and the history of love affairs in national security going back to Cleopatra?
