U.S. Captures Benghazi Suspect in Secret Raid.....

I really do not understand why they try to defend Barrack Obama from justified criticism, as though he is something more than a politician. They just don't want to know What's Goin' On.



Smiling Faces - The Undisputed Truth, huh?

Funny you got all that from my quote of



Talk about you twisting a comment around to say something I didn't even bring up.

Fact, the people that killed those 4 Americans were terrorists. Period.

I don't care what the motive was behind the murders, the fact is four Americans are dead and I'm glad someone involved got caught.

You on the other hand don't really care about those Dead Americans, you only care if it can nail Obama. That is why the right loses national elections.


I've cared since day one. I cared enough to know their families deserved the truth.

It wasn't me or people like me who made the political calculation to manufacture a false narrative over a YouTube video.

People on the left have been calling the demand for the truth a "faux" conspiracy, further pushing the politicized narrative that this was a protest
 
By the time they hit the States they will have granted him citizenship & registered him as a Democratic (for some reason Democratics want you to call it the Democratic Party doncha know)

I think the New York is going to remain in the Med. Seems the terrorist will come back by plane because the distance between a terrorist and a Democrat is not that great, and can be accomplished in relatively short order. What a relief. Now we can look forward to a protracted legal thingy in which Holder is the prosecution and the defense all rolled into one. Is this great, or what? Glad we haven't shot him or anything because Libya wants him back. I'd just hate to send him back in a body bag or something.
 
Again, this may be appropriate for this discussion. Because the reflexive antipathy toward this guys capture is nothing short of deranged.

From Andrew Sullivan:

"The reaction of the Fox News right to the capture of the ringleader of the attack on the Benghazi consulate/CIA base tells you a huge amount. If their concern at the attack on the compound were genuine, they would have taken a moment to celebrate. Here, after all, is the fanatic they’ve wanted to get for two years now. He could help answer more questions than dozens of Congressional hearings. The truth of what occurred could be fleshed out much more definitively, as long as we use civilized methods of interrogation; and justice can be better served by trying him in a civilian courts rather than military commissions, since the courts have an exponentially better record at prosecuting terrorists.

But no. The FNC right is not interested in the actual facts of the case or the pursuit of justice. It is merely a weapon with which to bludgeon their partisan opponents. So good news like yesterday’s will have to be instantly dismissed in order to maintain the crusade against the president. And when I say instantly, I mean instantly. "

So were this interested in the deaths that happened at other Embassies in the past say under a GOP president or is it just the Dem president you cared about the deaths for? Yeah right you care. :roll:
 
My friend, it is you who is moaning about criticism of Barrack Obama. If you voted for this know-nothing you should deal with it, and not complain that he is getting criticized for his inept policies. We all know the man is inexperienced, that it shows, and knew that when he was elected. It is not just his fault for these situations, it is also the responsibility of those voters who elected him.

Gimme a break you cons (independent my ass) have been whining about Benghazi but cared NOTHING for deaths at other embassies under a GOP president. Your faux outrage is noted.
 
We caught the " ring leader" of the protest ?
And FOX along with mouthpieces like I$$A are screaming another conspiracy, that Obama got the terrorist to play politics.
Cruz, Rubio, McCain, McConnell, Graham, Johnson, Ayotte, FOX---McCain says go to GITMO after saying he wanted it closed . :lamo

LOL !!

Bush tangents are funny !

Irrelevant but funny. Did the Bush administration manufacture some BS narrative over the deaths of four Americans because it was Politically expedient ?

Big difference.

So we captured a " Protester " ??

Since the Benghazi attack was triggered by a YouTube video we must have.

Signs signs.....everywhere theres signs. I am thinking of a song. Guess which one? :lol:
 
That's only in the real media. In your world, it's totally different. Read the post and you'll see why.

You know for the longest time anytime the subject of Benghazi was brought up you people responded right on cue with the whole " Faux Right wing conspiracy " rhetoric.

You wouldn't even address the issue, you would just start repeating talking points.

So I think its important now to make the distinction between " Protester " and " Terrorist " now that we've nabbed this guy.

IF he's a Terrorist then Obama and Hillary lied their asses off and you and your leftist ilk continued to perpetuate that lie at the expense of the truth ans the lives of these four individuals.

IF he's a Terrorist WE werw right all along.

We can say he's missing.

Terrorists ... emails ... Shiite happens ... or ... it's always Sunni.
 
Funny how the wingnuts have been screaming about how Obama needs to bring these guys to Justice, and now when the ringleader is captured, somehow Obama disappears from the story.
He's a 'ringleader' of nothing...that's only Obama bot spin.
 
According to whom? You?

According to much of the media and according to him. He claims he's just a Libyan citizen living at home. The only place "ringleader" is used is in the headlines. No government statement or charges against him describe him as a ringleader of anything.

That's Right JMac.....and not even all of BO's own people think he is any type of leader other than of what would be an equivalent to an Officer like as in 2nd Louie.

Do you think they kind of knew since the guy was a Construction Worker? :lol:


The Associated Press reported in May that American officials had identified *five men* who might be responsible for the Sept. 11, 2012, attack in Benghazi that occurred just weeks before President Barack Obama's re-election. The suspects were not named publicly, but the FBI released photos of three of the five suspects, asking the public to provide more information on the men pictured. The images were captured by security cameras at the U.S. diplomatic post during the attack, but it took weeks for the FBI to see and study them. The FBI and other U.S. intelligence agencies identified the men through contacts in Libya and by monitoring their communications. They are thought to be members of Ansar al-Shariah, the Libyan militia group whose fighters were seen near the U.S. diplomatic facility prior to the violence.

Waiting to prosecute the suspects instead of grabbing them now could add to the political burden the Benghazi case already has placed on Obama and Democrats who want to succeed him in 2016. Since Obama's re-election, Republicans in Congress have condemned the administration's handling of the matter, criticizing the level of embassy security and questioning the talking points provided to U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice for her public explanation of the attack. Conservatives have suggested that the White House tried to play down the incident to minimize its effect on the president's campaign.

In an interview with the Times in October, Khattala said he had arrived at the American compound in Benghazi as gunfire broke out but that he had played no role in the attack. He told the newspaper that he entered the compound at the end of the siege in an attempt to rescue Libyan guards who worked for the Americans and were trapped.

Khattala accused American leaders of using the Benghazi attack to play "with the emotions of the American people" in an effort to "gather votes for their elections," according to the Times.

Did you notice where the terrorist mentioned the youtube video?
Are you giving thanks today that Obama has taken out so many bad guys?
Yet the flip side of your party whines on about drones.
There is no pleasing you guys--so Obama needs to go it alone--as with Bergdahl--don't even tell Dems either .

So no matter whatever happens, in your mind your partisan GOP views it a win over a captured terrorist.
That you are taking a right turn back to protester and 4 dead in Ben--gha-zi .

U.S. captures Benghazi suspect in secret raid - The Washington Post


Timeline:

Late December 2012 to early January 2013: Although Ahmed Boukhtala, *a member of an Islamic terrorist group*, is the *main suspect* in the September 11 terrorist attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, he continues to live freely in that city. Libyan authorities are reluctant to become entangled in cases like his, which involve terror-group affiliations. In an interview with a Libyan newspaper, Boukhtala neither admits nor denies his role in the September 11 attack. In response to a direct question regarding the incident, he says:

Let’s first ask about the reason for their presence in Benghazi in this suspicious and secret way. The other thing is: what is the nature of work they were doing in Benghazi? What was the role that the consulate was playing, and who gave it permission to violate Libya’s sovereignty and intervene in Libyan politics?” .....snip~

Time will show that you are on the wrong side of this scum...

A three-count criminal complaint filed by the FBI last July and unsealed in federal court in the District on Tuesday charges Abu Khattala with “killing a person in the course of an attack on a federal facility involving use of a firearm” on Sept. 11 and 12, 2012, providing and conspiring to “provide material support to terrorists resulting in a death” and possessing and using a firearm during a crime of violence.

Conviction on the felony counts could make him eligible for the death penalty or life imprisonment. In a statement, Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said the Justice Department could bring more charges against Abu Khattala.
