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

It's a common misconception, Lizzie, propagated by fools and liars who are mostly European.. Klown on this thread is only one of the many examples.

I'm in the tourism business and no one is more gracious than the Americans. Among my visitors the Canadians, French, Italians, Chileans, and Argentinians also tend to be warm and wonderful people. Americans should certainly be very proud of themselves and their contributions to the world.

I understand that, but it still doesn't change our image around the world as greedy, fat, decadent Americans.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

.... I would not have killed Gadaffi for starters ... I would not keep supporting the infamous Arab Spring which means bringing religious fundamentalists into government to the Arab world...

that for starters

So, if you were in the mob of people who found Gadaffi and killed him, you would have voted 'no' on the killing thing?

How does that relate to President Obama?
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate Benghazi leaves 4 dead, inc. U.S. Ambassador[W:9

Before I was mad. Now I'm pissed.






Good on the Libyan government for not trying to either quietly ignore or appease these thugs. Looking at you, Egypt.


I'm happy to see the Libyan response to this tragedy as the people don't seem to be being duped by the terrorist there. The terrorists try to say it was for that anti Muslim movie being made but that is a load a **** because this was clearly a pre-planned attack with heavy munitions and that story about the movie didn't break until that day or the day before.

Good on the Libyan people though:

I suspect the overwhelming majority of people around the world wish they could be greedy, fat, decadent Americans too.

I'm sure you right about that, but it doesn't change the fact that they hate us for it. It's pretty typical to hate what you want, but can't have.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

Obama just pissed off Israel (snubbing Netanyahu) and ONLY condemned the death of a US ambassador within days. His foreign policy abilities are on full display. Bush would have embraced Israel and had an aircraft carrier on its way.

You really need to know what your are talking about before you post some times.

1) Obama didn't snub Nentanyahu. That is right-wing bull**** that you bought.
2) Warships were redirected towards Libya immediately.

Your Obama derangement syndrome needs some serious help if you ever want to see the truth again.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

So are you saying that we ammend the first ammendment to our constitution? If we change a part of who we are i.e "freedom of speech" they win. That is exactly what thay want us to do.

OK.. You want to impose "freedom of speech" on every culture? I find that hysterically funny. Do you also want to impose that on Canada and Germany?

Saddle up, kiddo.

And your Obama/Dem worship doesn't blind you at all. Lol.

I do think the comments immediately following the attack by both Obama and Romney were an extremely good and clear example of the differences between the two presidential candidates. In fact, I think they're a very good illustration of the difference between the parties.

guess im a war criminal then...news to me

Are you Bush or Cheney? If not, then no, you're not a war criminal.

I never said the soldiers are responsible. I hate it when people assume someone criticizing the war is criticizing the troops. Totally totally false.

And arrogant, you missed out arrogant, believing we'd all like to be Americans if we could be.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

The creeping arm of Sharia Law in effect. This is how it starts. create unrest until the people they want in power (Talibanesque-style rulership) are in power, then leave and let them impose Sharia Law. If you need a clue, just look at Egypt now. Mubarak out, Sharia Law in.

Thanks Resident Obama.

This is true. or else they wouldn''t even desire to come here(America). We are the infidels, so why come here if their religion forbids any relations with infidels. hmmmmmm....Sharia Law maybe?
:(
not gonna happen here.

How silly and myopic.

Then let's hear your analogy? And save your insults because I have no time for that mess.

Because from where I'm sitting, No Muslim can debate what I said. They hate America, don't get it twisted. do some research on the 2 Houses of Islam and get back to me. You'll understand why I posted what I posted.

Dear God.. Israel has betrayed Eisenhower, LBJ, Reagan and Nixon. Is Israel more important to you than our country?

Yes, arrogance is clearly an exclusively American trait. :D

You see how the stupidity of one man escalated the turmoil in the arab world.

Yeah, it's the guy who made the video who's "stupid" not the people killing over it. :roll:

Besides, didn't the vid come out, like, a year ago? Wow, can you imagine the egg on people's faces if it turned out the video was just a cover for a planned attack?

Do you think that posse will meander on down around my way? Cuz I reckon if so.....I will have to play Bill Hillcock, and make sure they checks their weapons.

The video was part of a two hour feature film that bombed because it was so stupid

And recently it was dubbed in Arabic and released as a 13 minute trailer on YouTube.

No question that it was intended to provoke Muslims.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

Frankly, I think we forget sometimes that in some of these places, the concept of freedom is completely different. To Egyptians, if a film gets made, it obviously has the approval of the government. After all, all the films they see there are from the government. To them, this was America insulting their religion. The concept that this person can make a movie that says whatever he thinks without running the script by the government censors is completely foreign to them.

We see these movements like the Arab Spring, and we think that they wanted this kind of freedom and government. They don't even have a concept of it. These people are not sitting there with a Constitution like ours just waiting to be freed from their dictator so they can put it in place. Some people have seen it and want that, but for a lot of them freedom means wearing blue jeans and having a job.

Compared to the rest of the world, even our conservatives are extremely liberal. If you sent Dick Cheney to Iran, he'd get beheaded for being dangerously liberal!

Far from it, but this demonstration of it was by an American.
