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

Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate Benghazi leaves 4 dead, inc. U.S. Ambassador[W:9

I will chalk it up to general liberal jack assery.

He may be many things that you would dislike politically, but I've a feeling he's no liberal.
 
Re: Libya: Assault on U.S. consulate in Benghazi leaves 4 dead, including U.S. Ambass

Well, that's a judgement for you to make, you're American, I'm not.

Really? I am supposed to know that? Also, frankly then since you are not American, mind telling us which country that benefits from America's force, and the blood of America's soldiers you reap the benefits of safety from?

Isn't it slightly ironic that you refuse to make formal declarations of war for your wars, yet still behave as if they were, suspending normal behaviour.

Isn't is slightly ironic that you enjoy the comfort of being able to make these judgements from the safety of your living room, protected by the very people you condemn?

Then, when convenient, you'll categorise enemy combatants as terrorists because no state of war technically exists.

Worry not friend, with increasing frequency the state sponsors of terrorism are revealing themselves. And when they do, I am sure you along with many other misguided liberal peoples will beg for the protection of Stars and Stripes.

And you act all surprised when people don't view you as a positive force for good in the world.

Well, Your opinion of the US, and the reality of what the US is are two different things.

As far as I can see, most of the western world has been made an infinitely LESS safe place due to the actions of the US, and its crusader allies like the UK, in the past 12 years.

You ain't protecting me, you're endangering me.

We'll see.

I doesn't surprise me that you would hold such an opinion. I do look forward to the day when the US does return to being a positive force in the geo-political firmament. I had hopes for Obama, but much of the world that welcomed him so warmly are feeling let down. I don't think anyone outside of the GOP heartland would have any such aspirations for a Romney presidency. In other words, I'm not holding my breath.

No, terrorism describes the effect of an action on a population. The effect is the key, not the intention. A population can be terrorised by unintended consequences of intentional actions. Those launching drone attacks cannot guarantee the safety of civilians therefore in launching them they accept that civilian casualties will be the consequence. The civilian population is thereby terrorised. What part of this isn't terrorism?

The part when the civilians are being targeted with the intention to terrorize them and make them fear. Without this part the action cannot possibly be described as terrorism and in the world of warfare it is rather known as collateral damage, unintended damage.

When the action is undertaken, knowing the possible outcome and the high likelihood of 'collateral damage' (what weasel words are they?), then it is intentional, even if the 'primary' target might be legitimate enemy combatants.

Just so we can make a well assessed determination, Which country do you hail from?

so you feel the world would be a lot safer with the Taliban still in power in Afghanistan and Saddam Hussein in Iraq?

Why is the world more unsafe now? Why do you feel 'endangered'?

Good for them...Now turn them over to us.

From your link...

"It was planned, definitely, it was planned by foreigners, by people who entered the country a few months ago. And they were planning this criminal act since their arrival," he told CBS.

Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has said in a statement the attack was in revenge for the killing of the terror network's deputy leader Sheikh Abu Yahya al-Libi in a drone strike in June.

I think this puts to rest the whole "it's about the 'movie' trailer" then.

Are you saying they were misled?

I should know the intent of every person with a you tube account now? And "Media for Christ"? Are you kidding me? The very fact that you say dumb **** like this sharon is endemic of liberal sympathy with America's enemies around the world...Including these terrorists that drug thru the streets, raped, and killed our Ambassador.

Egyptian rioters yesterday were photographed wearing Guy Fawkes masks next to graffiti on a wall of the U.S. embassy during a protest in Cairo, Egypt

The rioters climbed the walls of the U.S. embassy in Cairo and tore up the American Flag, replacing it with a black al Qaeda flag.

Liberal? Even conservatives recognize a pack of con artists pretending to be an "Evangelical" charity?

To expose Wahhabist males trying to pose as Christian females on internet discussion boards?

Just taking a stab there.

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

BENGHAZI—The head of Libya's new national congress has blamed al Qaeda-linked militants for planning Tuesday's deadly attack on the U.S. Consulate in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi, raising further questions about the motive behind the mayhem that killed four Americans.

U.S. officials told The Wall Street Journal on Friday that they are investigating indications that a local group of Libyan militants, Ansar al Sharia, held a series of conversations Tuesday with al Qaeda extremists about the assault that day on the consulate, in the first sign of possible coordination in the attack between local fighters and the global terrorist movement.

No, you'd be pretty presumptuous, and pompous to characterize someone from an anonymous message board...Anyway, why is it so damaging to you, or so you perceive to have an honest conversation? Why is it that people like you always have to dance around this vague sort of subterfuge in order to continue with their failed line of debate...It says much about your line of posting sir.

And it appears endemic of your that you repeat long-disproved lies as if they were truth.

Lies? I don't think so...Opinion is just that....so I invite you to uncover what you think are the supposed lies, and talk about them...but rest assured that you are already starting any discussion from this point behind in honesty points due to your lack of open honesty.

The Ambassador died of asphyxiation due to smoke inhalation before he was discovered by locals, rushed to hospital and confirmed dead. Where's your evidence for your claim that he was raped?
