Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate Benghazi leaves 4 dead, inc. U.S. Ambassador[W:939]

Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

I think we're pissed off more than anything! Or at least I am.

Frankly, I'm just weary of dealing with 7th century barbarians.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

I would like to remind people that the US-NATO alliance did back these rebels which had Islamic extremists (Anti-American Extremists Among Libyan Rebels U.S. Has Vowed To Protect) and Al Qaeda ties (Al Qaeda may already be among Libya's rebels - World Watch - CBS News) (Libyan rebel commander admits his fighters have al-Qaeda links - Telegraph).

This is not to say that this was a good thing or that it shouldn't be condemned. Personally, I say that this is a horrid, tragic event and condemn it in the strongest possible terms.
This was the one term Marxist flexible with our enemies and his friends president Barrack Hussein Obama's war. The man could mess up a marble.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

What is disgusting is you blaming us for the actions of others. Nobody said they had to kill him like they did. They did that because THAT is the way they do things over there.

LMFAO at how narrow of a perspective you have.

See I recall once when I watched a video of American troops that were using a remote control air strike that killed a few innocent civilians and the US soldiers laughing about it and having fun in how they killed those innocent civilians. Think that was one of those wikileaks videos. then you say "How they kill people over there" as if the US is so innocent and above such things.

how can you be so one sided and really believe the propaganda you spew?
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

Right, but what could we have done? Deployed U.S. troops at every embassy in the World and stay on high-alert for 24 hours?



The Libyan government could've done something if they had a military force, but I was questioning what we could have done.

Maybe we just shouldn't have embassies in these kinds of places. I know it's not realistic, but I wish we could have nothing to do with them at all.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

They claim they were not prepared for it, which is an explanation not to be taken at face value.

Which is why in my reply to you earlier I said and investigation and disposition is in order.

I definitely agree. If the country isn't stable or is known to be largely anti-American, we shouldn't have an embassy there.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

Yep they were trying to make way towards our Embassy again. The Egyptian Military has put thmeselves in their way. They are burning things up as the Police and the protestors are lining each other up.

Throwing Molotivs and CNN is reporting they are squaring off.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

I think we're pissed off more than anything! Or at least I am.

And in a week we'll forget all about it, and not even an anniversary will be held. Then another attack will take place in few months where several innocent people will be murdered and we'll all be pissed off again.

Meanwhile we'll still be removing our shoes at airports, having body scans, being videotaped 24/7, eventually cavity searches will begin, and we'll still be asking ourselves how we can appease them further. Take our money, our freedom of speech, but please stop killing us.

Something other than what was done. Our best thinking got 4 Americans killed for no damn good reason!

This is during a war (not that it excuses killing children), but we don't know the circumstances of this either, and so that is completely irrelevant. This other person is saying that the US is responsible for dragging Qadaffi through the streets and killing him, which we are not.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

No word from Morsi in Egypt. Now with them knowing it was planned. The Libyans have admitted. They have no police force nor an army. That they didnt even have troops in and around Benghazi. That the Berber tribes and their Militias dominate that region of Libya.

No matter any spin. It was the Anniversary of 911. 2 of our Embassies were hit and it has happened on Obama's watch. Because why? Because the White house Administration is in Campaign Mode. Obama was touting his Foreign policy. Now the truth is out. Egypt has become a failure in our policy. Libya is a complete failure. He has trouble with Israel a which has put a strain on relations. He is still dropping drones in Yemen, Somolia, and Pakistan. Plus don't forget we back the French's and Brits play with Gbagbo in the Ivory Coast. While he sent in Advisors to go after Kony

This does not include all the Green on blue attacks in Afghanistan by the people we are training.

As the Alleged President of Libya's own words show the way. They have no control over that part of the Country. Not hard to consider since that is controlled by the Berber Tribes.
Yeah some of the same ones that Gadhafi belonged to. Which I doubt they will bow to the MB and the Sunni that was transposed in Libya.

Breaking new: Right now its 2 am in Egypt and they are still protesting down around the Square. Egyptian military has fired tear gas to disperse the crowds. CNN and Reuters is just picking it up.

To you Obama's foreign policy in the Middle East is a failure. Perhaps it is a success to him.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

And the saddest thing is the way they dragged the body of Ambassador Stevens after he was murdered .... exactly like they did to Gaddafi.

It's nothing short of barbaric!

Down in Texas White men have killed a few black people and tied them to the back of pick up trucks and dragged them down the road, and although that too is barbaric my point here is that it's humans who are doing these barbaric acts regardless of color, creed, or religious background so its not just "them" its also "us" who do these same things

Why you bring that into this thread? Open another one if you want to discuss that.

An end was put to what you deem was a good example.....This barbaric insanity has been going on for centuries and there is no sign it will stop. How about staying on topic.

You do a Hiroshima and, if necessary, a Dresden.

You'll notice how the Japanese and the Germans now have a deep aversion to weapons of any sort?

A little bit of Nagasaki would definitely make Islam a religion of peace.

That is true, but things like this seem to have bigger implications, like terrorism. This is way bigger than a group of guys in Texas who decide to kill a black man.

LMFAO.. during a war? Oh thats right, that was the war against a sovereign nation that never attacked the USA and never had WMD that were found but it was a justified war. Rolls eyes.

And the US had a hand in Qadaffis death and you can bet on that.

by the way kids being killed is called collateral damage so its ok, its only a young life but since they are over there they dont have the same value as an American life right? Again rolls eyes

Why would you say such things? That's just cold.

And yes, during a war. Terrible things happen during wars. I never said I agreed with that, but that is another subject.

Why dont you take a hike Jerk....... you are either the ultimate ignoramous for somehow believing Americans are worse than the Islamo Nazi's or you are an active cheerleader for the other side. Dont come in here and insult us on the anniversy of 9-11 and a day when Americans were violently killed
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

He didn't "snub" Bibi. The National Post states that "An Israeli official told Reuters on condition of anonymity that Netanyahu’s aides had asked for a meeting when he visits the United Nations this month, and 'the White House has got back to us and said it appears a meeting is not possible. It said that the president’s schedule will not permit that.'" (Barack Obama rejects Benjamin Netanyahu meeting request after PM says U.S. has no ‘moral right’ to stop Israeli attack on Iran | World | News | National Post)

Thus, it was a scheduling problem rather than a purposeful snub.
Have you ever seen the president's schedule. Often he has one meeting around 10:30 and then he flies off to play golf or attend a fund raiser.

yeah, what he said!
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

Lybian government?

Is that what you call a US propped up dictatorship?
This is completely the one term Marxist's doing. Birds of a feather, and all that.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

Have you become an apologist for Islamic terrorists now Pete?

Now come on. That's not fair to Pete to ask him if he has now become an apologist for Islamic terrorists.

he has been posting like this for several years, now.
