Obama Administration Denying Terrorism

By Larry Johnson on September 15, 2012 at 8:30 PM in Current Affairs

Al Qaeda is back and, despite the death of bin Laden, still viable and still capable of conducting a coordinated attack. That is what happened on 9-11 in Libya and Egypt. These were coordinated attacks. What happened in Libya, in particular, was sophisticated and required advanced planning.

This was not a spontaneous reaction to a movie, despite the claims and justifications by some in the media. What is particularly disturbing is that President Obama and Secretary Clinton so far have refused to describe what happened in Libya as terrorism.

This is the first major Al Qaeda attack against the United States in at least five years. Obama has spent too much time doing a victory lap for the death of bin Laden rather than ensure that Al Qaeda is eliminated. Note, the current leader, Ayman Zawahiri, is being sheltered in Pakistan by the same goons who protected Bin Laden.

We saw the coordinated attacks on US Embassies by Al Qaeda in August 1998. Here we are, 14 years later, and they’ve done it again. And Obama’s response? A campaign fund raiser in Las Vegas.

    At exactly what point are Americans going to get smart and realize that this is much more than just about al Qaeda? While there are other groups that have branched off al Qaeda and other terror groups that were never affiliated with al Qaeda, this has been a long developing movement among Muslims to elevate themselves in the world and regain dominance they once had.

    At the heart of this movement has been and continues to be the Muslim Brotherhood who have regained power in a number of countries.

    We and the rest of the West are in a war against this effort to bring fundamentalist Islam to the Middle East as well as the West.

    For Obama and Biden to parade like they defeated al Qaeda because bin Laden is dead is ignorant and gives false hope to Americans.

    There were warnings for these attacks and Obama is going to be asked why they were not heeded and where was American security in what you admitted were fledgling new governments.

    • MG6

      This is what we should do. Put a halt on immigration from the ME. Go back and review those who came in start deportation of hose who refuse to adopt the American way. Or at least respect us, remember they expect respect when nonmuslims go to their countries.
      Remove the MB and CAIR from the US.

      • BronwynsHarbor

        No kidding. It’s terrible … but, when and if I go to Seattle, eery taxi driver makes me nervous — except the Iranians who have been here a long time since their parents left when the Shah was run out of Iran. They love and appreciate the U.S. … and most are studying for degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science — I saw their textbooks back in the days when I could afford to take a cab.

        • CathyInKs

          I think those Iranians who have been here for 30 years or more are citizens of this country and have been so for a long time. The ones I’ve known are hard-working and well-educated. They are a far cry from the Muslim extremists in the ME! In fact they consider themselves Persians – not Arabs. I feel so sad for the people of Iran because their government doesn’t represent most of them!

      • http://www.theindependentview.com/ Matthew J. Weaver

        No, what we need is a president that will act decisively and put the fear of God into anyone that dare cross, threaten, or touch America or an American.

        • HObama HObamanana

          I agree with you Matthew. The actions on this past September 11th demand a response they will not soon forget.

        • Hokma

          Absolutely. That was the difference between Carter and Reagan. While many here don’t like GW Bush while he was in office the ME was still stable. If you harken back to the months following 9/11/01 there was enormous fear in the ME of the U.S. including Iran. Quadaffi surrendered his WMDs after Bush announced his line-in-the-sand policy.
          This all became unglued after Obama made his infamous surrender speech in Cairo.

        • TeakWoodKite

          or at least the fear of 70 ugly virgins. Think of it. If you murder in Allah’s name you get to be a pedophile / rapist in heaven….
          Now we have Obama, who was up front about being a Muslim, and now the SOS buying into another “work place violence” incident.
          Obama is a clear and present danger to the national security interests of the United States. He needs to be voted or rmoved from office via the 25th. (so what if Biden is POTUS! At least he is an American, Obama is not)

      • HObama HObamanana

        At a bare minimum I would immediately deport any one of them without proper documentation to be here. And to hell with flying them out. Put them on a slow boat to China and pray for swift winds.

    • BronwynsHarbor

      Someone last night or today said on FOX NEWS that the Koran dictates that Muslims’ mission is to make the entire world Muslim. Europe is already half-way there…. exaggerating ONLY a little. WHY ELSE did the Germans (who DO have decent intelligence) step up security at the U.S. embassy in Germany?

      • Hokma

        That is right and ignoring it as some small faction of Muslims is ignorant.
        Apologists for these people try to point to disctinctions between Shia and Sunnis without recognizing that they are first bound by the same essential beliefs in estabishling global domination of Islam.
        The only thing these people understand is strength and Obama has shown non of it.

    • binky354

      At exactly what point are Americans going to get smart and realize that this is much more than just about al Qaeda?

      When it’s too late.

      • HObama HObamanana

        I agree with your sentiments. Instead of focusing on Islamic fanaticism we have allowed ourselves to be lulled into believing that if we just stop Al Qaeda the world will suddenly become a safer place for everyone. Al Qaeda is but the tip of the iceberg. They were the most organized and successful of the barbarians but they are by no means the only barbarians. Nor the only organized ones.

    • elizabethrc

      Cut off all funding to each of those countries. Let them sink or swim on their own. It’s like a beating victim saying to his or her attacker: Please may I have some more?
      This is nonsense. What good is the money doing? Does anyone truly think that the money is winning us friend in the ME?

  • akaPatience

    Hillary Clinton is giving a speech right now that began with a lengthy preface denouncing the blasphemous video. This video has been on Youtube since June but the attacks in the ME became acute on 9/11 which betrays the idea that it was the trigger but rather lends credence to the notion that it’s merely an ostensible excuse for the violence.

    • shelldoll2

      I don’t care what Hillary says. She supported Obama’s ME policy which led to these extremists getting into power.

      She said nothing when Obama was using these same extremists to overthrow these governments.

      Her outrage is a day late and a dollar short.

      • binky354

        The blame needs to be put where it belongs–on Islam, not on a video or our free speech.

        • HObama HObamanana

          I agree with you. Let our country set the record straight.

    • BronwynsHarbor

      It was translated into Arabic in late JULY and then it went “viral,” along with the proposition to attack U.S. embassies. That did not take ANY planning except to bring ladders to scale the fences, and lots of paper and matches and a few Molotov cocktails. AND some guns. That’s it!

      And — I’m repeating myself — every Arab knows that the U.S. is still hung up on 9/11 so it goes without much thinking to do the attacks on 9/11, except to spread the word via Twitter, Facebook, e-mail, cellphone messages, and videos.

      Then all they have to do is get to the embassy, make sure a few of them bring a ladder and a gun … and there you have it.

      • Hokma

        I had read late yesterday that someone had the phone number of this supposed film director which was a phone number for an Egyptian American. I’m trying to search for that.
        It has already been established that this supposed film director was neither Israeli or even Jewish.

      • DianaLC

        The attack in Libya DID take planning. Doesn’t anyone besides me think the timing of the storming of the Eqyptian embassy–Egypt next to Libya–was a little suspicious? The Egyptian government knew what was happening, did NOTHING to stop the breach of the embassy walls. Our attention was focused on Egypt; then WHAM, we get brutal murder and rape in Libya.
        This all falls on the Obama administration. Both embassies and consulates should have had more protection. Their intelligence organizations should have known about the movie and had some inkling of the terrorist planning. Instead, they were so convinced of their hopey-changey universe that they did nothing, resting assured that soon they would be presented flowers by the flower children of the ME.
        I do NOT accept the straw man argument about the video. I won’t go there at all. It’s a stupid trailer, laughable. Who but IDIOTS and ODIOTS would have taken it seriously. No one here was watching it. Why should we pay just because we allow freedom of speech? (That is unless you are a member of our supposed fourth estate who believes only progressive liberal ideas are allowed free expression.)

        • HObama HObamanana

          You are absolutely correct. These were not isolated instances that occurred as a result of some obscure film. They were both planned well in advance.

        • sowsear1

          My brother in law told me last week that he heard on conservative radio that something big was going to happen on Sept. 12…Yes it did.

      • FLDemFem

        You forgot the Egyptians, they applied for a permit to demonstrate months ago. So it wasn’t just the movie, it was planned in advance for 9/11.

        • HObama HObamanana

          And we should hold this Administration accountable for their failure to be aware of these threats and neglect to protect embassy personnel.

    • HObama HObamanana

      She is portraying the weakness of the Obama Administration and bowing to the demands of the Muslims. To hell with her! Why didn’t she demand and secure proper protection at the Libyan Consulate?

      • http://profile.yahoo.com/ND2FCCGVV2IZTTAZQTXKJTCPNI Ruth

        if hillary had quietly been pushing for greater security then she should have resigned when this happened. actions speak louder than words.

        • HObama HObamanana

          I have no idea what Hillary was or was not pushing for. I am certain that she works for Obama and I hold him responsible for these deaths and the multitude of mayhem.

  • BronwynsHarbor

    True! But, for the people “in the street” in Libya, Egypt, Tunisia, and Temen — all they needed was that Arabic translation to get them going — with some Al Qaeda types (AND IMAMS!) to get them off and running, smashing, breaking, tearing down flags and, in Libya, attacking the ambassador.

    It doesn’t take lots of planning to get at an ambassador who has inadequate protection — as many are saying since the State Dept. did not give Ambassador Stevens enough protection. ALSO: He probably thought he was safe since he’d serve in Libya so long.

    Wanna bet that people guarding him — hell, even the cooks and cleaning people in his private quarters — were feeding info to a bunch of crazy radicals?

    The COPTICS in California? They hung around with and secretly APPROVED OF and GAVE MONEY TO the filmmakers. After getting NOTHING but lip service from the State Department AND President Barack Obama. They resorted to “desperate measures.”

    Wanna bet who translated that trailer? A Coptic who writes in Arabic. I’ll bet my Mitt Romney tumbler on that one.

    NONE of this requires five years of training — just a few people infiltrating all of those embassies — and, with social media, the word got passed around to hammer Americans on 9/11 — a date that EVERY Arab will never forget since they celebrate 9/11 every year, except for a very few in Tehran, Iran (and that was 11 years ago).

    • BronwynsHarbor

      All it took was for one man to burn himself to death for the Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda and other thugs to get going … I see your point, Larry. I really do.

      Sadly these countries have far too many young men who can’t find work OR have normal sex with normally-raised young women. They are bored, broke and they are horny — they take it all out by joining ANY protest, no matter what it’s for.

      They get USED just like Al Qaeda et al. use young boys and women, even grandmothers, to be suicide bombers. Makes me ill. (Being a suicide bomber only takes a short period of brainwashing, if any is needed, and brief instructions on how to set off the bomb … and people watching to make SURE that he sets off the bomb, or else … tragic for all of their victims, and even themselves (if they are ages 12-17, as many are).

      • HObama HObamanana

        Well, when they are brought up to blame everything wrong with their lives on Americans and Jews is it any wonder that we are the first to bear the brunt of their frustrations? This isn’t due to horny guys not being able to get some, this is a society programmed to hate and to direct that hate outward so as to prop up the powers that be that are in all actuality failing them.

      • DianaLC

        We all understand how it happens. But when, for example, someone like George Obama, BHO’s half brother, the son of his father’s fourth wife, can see things more rationally on his own, living in poverty, your understanding should NOT amount to excusing.
        My ex-father-in-law had a nasty mouth, would say mean things to my sister-in-law (a Hispanic). The family tried to explain it away because he was so very ill at the time, an illness brought on by his own lifestyle. I stood with her. Both of us had very ill older people in our families. Those people never used their illnesses as excuses for being nasty.
        In the U.S. we believe in the INDIVIDUAL’s right and duty to try to achieve the life he or she wants. I am sick to death of excusing others for their idiocy.

    • shelldoll2

      I understand the Coptic desperation. However, helping to set up their American allies, I mean the average American/the Ambassador not the Obama administration, will not win them any sympathy or support.

      Why didn’t they send a representative or a delegation to DC? They have exiles that have fled the region. I’m sure international journalists would have listened to their pleas and their plight. With the internet at their disposal they could have made their cause go viral.

      I’ve followed the plight of the Coptics for years.

      Americans are dead. That’s my line in the sand.

      • HObama HObamanana

        I am not so certain that the Coptics are behind this. Not saying they aren’t. It’s just that I have not seen conclusive proof that they are. And what little evidence presented seems to implicate only a few people described as radical Coptics, not the church itself.

        • shelldoll2

          Oh great. Now we have radical Coptics and radical Muslims?

          Good grief.

          • MG6

            Coptic have a right to be radicalized. They have to submit to sharia law even if they are not Muslims. They cannot build their churches or repair them without Muslim approval which they never get. A Priest was killed recently while trying to repair the roof of his church. Muslims men can rape coptic girls without repercussions. The law protects Muslims and leaves Coptic on their own with no protection from the mob. Their is so much of a beating and killing you can take before taking revenge.

            http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=si3jFTpObmk&feature=youtube_gdata_player

            • shelldoll2

              I’m not saying the Coptics shouldn’t be angry or want revenge.

              I’m well aware of what’s been done to them in the name of “Islam”.

              Ah to hell with it. Let’s see how many dead Americans can dance on the head of a pin.

              • MG6

                Islam will always hate us. We have constitution that flys in the face of Islam. We are free people to decide how we wish to worship, or not.
                While we exist and refuse to submit they will try to kill us. We stand in their way of world domination. We the west the free people.
                Kinda think about so does the china, the left and other despots.

                • HObama HObamanana

                  Yesterday morning I spoke with a Minister about the situation in Egypt and Libya and his response surprised me. He said that it was of no use attempting to make these people see the light, that they hate us and will continue to hate us regardless of what we say or do. He said that all they understand is hate and war and that we should get out of there completely. I was a little shocked but really appreciated his honesty.

            • DianaLC

              I agree. But I still don’t think it’s fair that we are wasting time trying to figure out how much they are or are not to blame.
              I don’t want to talk contributory or even necessary causes here. To me it’s clearly only a question of sufficient causes. Who pulled the triggers? Who threw the rocks? Who climbed the fence? Who set the fires? Who raped? We do believe in a person’s rights to choose their own life pattern. They need to choose correctly.
              I’m with shelldoll2 on this issue.

      • DianaLC

        You and probably only a very small number of people in the U.S. know anything at all about the Coptic Christians–especially the fact that they have been there in Egypt as long as and maybe longer than the Muslims.
        I am refusing the blame the video. I am going to ask it again: DO WE BELIEVE IN FREEDOM OF SPEECH OR DON’T WE?
        This video is not, in my opinion, the same thing as yelling “fire” in a crowded theater.

        • HObama HObamanana

          Your last sentence is the obvious truth, despite the spin of liberals.

        • HoosierinDixie

          I absolutely agree with you Diana. As distasteful as this film is, the bottom line is….. “Do we Believe in Freedom of Speech or Don’t we?”
          My nephew is currently deployed in Afghanistan and there is not a day goes by that I do not worry about his safety. I asked him before he joined the Marines why he was willing to risk his life. He said “Because I believe in America and for everything it stands for. If we change our way of life or are not willing to defend our freedom here and abroad, than all is lost.”
          It is tragic times like this when I remember what he said and I have Hope. I don’t have to agree with what people say or do to express themselves, but as an American I defend their right to say it.

          • DianaLC

    Yes, the dismissal of the thret, just a mournful and incredibly weak comment then fundraising trip to Las Vegas says all we need to know about Obama. He not only fails his 3 a.m. Moment, but he does not even get it.

    • FLDemFem

      Not only does he not get it, he think that diplomats getting killed and embassies getting attacked is on a par with his campaign and the people who work for him. Seriously, he said that.

      “Obama’s remarks came during a meeting
      with volunteer leaders in Las Vegas. ‘And obviously [our] hearts are
      broken for the families but I wanted to encourage those folks at the
      State Department that they were making a difference,’ he said, according
      to a pool report.
      ‘The
      sacrifices that our troops and our diplomats make are obviously very
      different from the challenges that we face here domestically but, like
      them, you guys are Americans who sense that we can do better than we’re
      doing….I’m just really proud of you.’

    • lola828

      Mr. Weaver what would you have had Obama actually say instead? You talk a lot of BS, so step-up and tells us what you would have liked Obama to have said?

      What you are not seeing is what the U.S. military is currently doing in Libya and North African to try and take-out these attackers.

      • HObama HObamanana

        Perhaps a President would spend his time with his National Security team making strategic decisions on how to proceed after our Embassies have come under siege and our Consulate sacked and it’s diplomats murdered. Or maybe a President should go to a fundraiser in Las Vegas. I suppose that’s a hard choice if you are a liberal nitwit.

  • Theymustbemorons

    Larry, I came across this detailed article last night (posted the link on the “surrender monkey” thread) and I agreed with Matthew it was “suspicious.” While it was picked up by many other sites (not mainstream), it is a Reuters article by “Hadeel Al Shalchi.” I’ve never read her stuff but she does have a Twitter as well and seems to be a known Middle East journalist. The title: “Libya rescue squad ran into fierce, accurate ambush.” Here’s the link:
    http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/09/12/libya-ambassador-battle-idUSL5E8KCMYB20120912

    This story was also picked up by Harretz, and an NBC blog which would be more “mainstream.”

    I’m curious… is there any reporting on increased security of Muslim embassies in the USA?

    Has Obama sent the plan for the sequestration defense cuts yet? Or is he still too busy fundraising, campaigning and apologizing for America?

  • Indy

    The administration’s pandering policy is clearly failing:
    ”

    A news report made by the Libyan Free Press is also reporting that Ambassador Stevens was sodomized before he was killed:
    “Libya – USA Ambassador in Bengazi sodomized and killed by his own al-Qaeda puppets.”

    http://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/watercooler/2012/sep/13/picket-report-murdered-us-ambassador-libya-reporte/

    The assault is unconfirmed, but the quote above says all we need to know about co-existing with these regimes.

  • elizabethrc

    If Obama were to stop spending so much time contemplating his navel he might see what’s going on around the world, especially in the Middle East. He’s the Neville Chamberlain of our time (that sure worked out well) and he’s growing more and more out of step with just about every ally.
    I am shocked at Hillary’s watery speeches and refusal to first and foremost place the blame forthrightly on the Islamists and further, to adopt the same apologetic tone as the State Dept. initially did.
    Waterloo comes to mind and if little will unite political parties, this kind of attack on America surely will. Obama’s subsequent actions in taking so long a time to even respond and then to split to LV for fund raising, especially after snubbing Bebe, are bad form in the extreme and politically unwise. Is no one advising this man on responsible governance? It appears the adults have left the room and the kids are trashing the furniture.
    I remember seeing W C Fields tombstone once and his epitaph read: “On the whole, I’d rather be in Philadelphia”. If truth were any guide, Obama’s would read similarly, substituting the golf course, a vacation or celebrity event instead. Obama is digging his own political grave, but I’m sure his tombstone will have lots of Grecian columns around it.

    • DianaLC

      ” It appears the adults have left the room and the kids are trashing the furniture.” Problem is this: the kids trashing the furniture are the odiots who are now the “reporters.” And the “teachers” who have raised up non-thinking, uncaring, selfish students–or worse, brainwashed progressives.
      I am praying that my generation and the children of some of us who were raised to be responsible thinking individuals can save the country on Nov. 6.

    Islamism is nothing new, it had just been suppressed for most of the 20th century following the collapse of the last caliphate, the Ottoman Empire. The Ottomans should not be regarded as some medieval relic in the dustbin of history, nor should the atrocities committed under them, the last and final being the Armenian genocide, the memory of which the Organization of Islamic States has been somewhat successful in attempts to suppress any mention of it ant the international diplomatic level.

    Kemal Ataturk tried to introduce an Enlightenment into the Islamic world, but we see today that modernization of an Islamic state could only be sustained through a quasi military dictatorship. The declining influence of the military sworn to uphold Turkey’s secular constitution adopted after the fall of the Ottomans has allowed the Islamist to regain political power under Recep Erdogan, and reverse course from Turkey’s eventual accession into the EU, Major stumbling blocks include Turkey’s refusal adopt the underlying basics freedoms, such as religion. One must now even ponder whether Turkey id a reliable member of NATO.

    In 1899, Winston Churchill wrote in his River Wars Islam as it existed then under the Ottomans. What he wrote holds equally true today.

    How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the faith: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.

        I agree. There are many comments that Romney should be 15 points ahead given who he’s running against. But Rush Limbaugh made a good point, I think. He turned it around. He asked, why isn’t Obama 15% ahead? He’s been fundraising all year, He has DEMS, the msm, Hollywood and some republicans all doing his bidding. Romney is running against all of them.

  • lola828

    Larry Johnson you are a funny guy.
    First during your ridiculous knee-jerk reaction comment (just like Romney) you blame this entirely on a movie, comparing the reaction to other religious movies. You told all Muslims to go Fuck themselves based on that.
    Now you change your tune and say that it is all about Al Qaeda. So, which is it?
    Libya was clearly an organized attack. So your critique of all Muslims because of that attack and the death of Americans was completely unfounded and bullshit.
    You are also wrong on Egypt above. It was not a coordinated attack, but rather a mob protest.
    I cannot believe people consider you a terrorist expert.
    Here is a question for you. Do you think it was a good idea for the U.S. embassy to have released the statement they did ahead of the attacks to try and cool the situation?
    If not, then why not and what is wrong with the statement?
    If yes, then yours and Romney original statements were completely BS, as the statement was clearly not an apology.
    Also, given the statement was made well before any attacks it was not, as Romney thought, the Adminstrations first response to the attacks, as the attacks occured after the statement.
    You and Romney and your reactions to these attacks and your politicization of the issue are an embarrasment and look bad.
    Obama has done a very good job at protecting America and whipping out Al Qaeda.

    • http://noquarterusa.net Larry Johnson

      Okay Moron,
      I realize giving you answers is akin to flushing turds down a toilet.

      1. Ayman Zawahiri put out a video on 10 Sept. The so=called “flash mob” in Cairo was in fact a coordinated, pre-planned event. You are just dead ass wrong. Moreover, the brother of Zawahiri was one of the leaders of that so-called mob. It is incumbent on Egypt to protect the Embassy. Egypt chose not to do its international duty.

      2. Embassy statement sounds like it was written by you. Totally fucking moronic. Embassy statement should have been a sharp rebuke to the Government of Egypt for its complete and utter failure to preserve and protect the sanctity of the US Embassy.

      3. I told all muslims that justify the violence in Cairo and Libya to “GO FUCK THEMSELVES.” I happily include you in that group.

    • Hokma

      Here are the real issues:
      1. Since the U.S. had warning why was there inadequate security in these embassies?
      2. Since these are fledgling governments, why were we relying on them for security and not ourselves?
      3. Why are we giving more aid to Egypt than any other country except Israel when, according to Obama, they are NOT an ally?
      4. Why, as LJ pointed out, was our intial communication in Egypt and even subsequent ones to apologize at all?
      5. With Obama and Biden pinning so much of their re-election on spiking the ball with the bin Laden killing, how valuable an event was that considering the Cairo protesters were yelling that thee are now a thousand bin Ladens?
      6. How is that apology foreign policy working out for Obama?
      Despite the frantic spinning and diversions being created by the Obama media events there are overwhleming that effort and THIS will do in Obama’s re-election efforts.

      • HObama HObamanana

        Something that I’ve been pondering all day is the stated reaction from the State Department to the original Embassy statement. They admitted they had received the communication and then said that they had received a second communication which was a variation on the first.

        Between the first and second receptions of communication they make no claim to have intervened or requested any sort of changed message of communication. How can they then claim to disavow such communications, stating they had not been cleared?

        • HObama HObamanana

          Never mind. I found much more information about this that I posted upstream.

    • HObama HObamanana

      Look you idiot, Obama said that the Embassy statement was not cleared with the State Department and he disavowed it. Are you now disagreeing with your Lord and Master?

      As to your last insane sentence, I don’t suppose that Obama did a very good job of protecting the 4 dead Americans at the Consulate in Libya from Al Qaeda, did he? Or is that what you consider a good job.

      • lola828

        Doesn’t matter if Obama said the statement was not cleared with the Statement. It was still a very reasonable statement to try and cool tensions. What exactly do you have wrong with the statement and what in it do you disagree with it.? hHvae you read the statement?

        What we do know that given the statement came before any attacks either in Egypt or Libya, it was not as Larry Johnson or Romney claim the first reaction to the attacks and not an apology.

        Romney and Larry Johnson were full of shit.
        We have 3 1/2 years of Obama and not a single terrorist attack in America by a foreign terrorist and most ot Al Qaeda is wiped-out.

        Romney’s bullshit, literally bullshit, politicization of this was extremely insensitive to the 4 dead Americans. It makes him look bad.

    More information on the infamous Embassy statement. From The Cable:

    Before issuing the press release, Schwartz cleared it with just one person senior to himself, Deputy Chief of Mission Marc Sievers, who was the charge d’affaires at the embassy on Tuesday because Ambassador Anne Patterson was in Washington at the time, the official said.

    Schwartz sent the statement to the State Department in Washington before publishing and the State Department directed him not to post it without changes, but Schwartz posted it anyway.

    “The statement was not cleared with anyone in Washington. It was sent as ‘This is what we are putting out,’” the official said. “We replied and said this was not a good statement and that it needed major revisions. The next email we received from Embassy Cairo was ‘We just put this out.’”

    A heated discussion ensued among State Department and White House officials over e-mail as the controversy over the statement grew Tuesday evening, even grabbing the attention of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Meanwhile, those same officials were dealing with a more serious attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi that resulted in the death of four American officials, including Ambassador Chris Stevens.

    “People at the highest levels both at the State Department and at the White House were not happy with the way the statement went down. There was a lot of anger both about the process and the content,” the official said. “Frankly, people here did not understand it. The statement was just tone deaf. It didn’t provide adequate balance. We thought the references to the 9/11 attacks were inappropriate, and we strongly advised against the kind of language that talked about ‘continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims.’”

    Despite being aware of Washington’s objections, the embassy continued to defend the statement for several hours, fueling the controversy over it, a decision the official again attributed to Schwartz.

    “Not only did they push out the statement but they continued to engage on Twitter and retweet it,” the official said. “[Schwartz] would have been the one directing folks to engage on Twitter on this.”

    The news is reporting the protests becoming widespread and saying it could spread into the US. Perhaps this is why Obama, with the stroke of his Executive Pen, made the way for 30,000 Hamas to enter the US.

After all, while a matter of life and death to those of us on the ground, it was hardly the decisive battle of the Iraq War — or even one that will be recorded in the history books. But I learned lessons that I’ll never forget. First, jihadists need no real excuse to riot or attack. In this case, “Mullah Playstation” (the area nickname for al-Sadr based on his reputed love for console gaming) simply ordered his people into the streets. Second, even “mass” movements require leadership. When we captured the local leaders, the movement ended as abruptly as it began. Third — and I’ll repeat this point as long as it needs to be said — strength wins and weakness kills. The local population didn’t love Sadr’s militia so much as they wanted to be on the winning side. Had we pulled back or hesitated in the slightest, our little corner of the war could have turned out very differently.

    We do not know what is happening behind closed doors (where the administration’s talk and actions may be much tougher than we currently perceive), but the parade of public American condemnations for an asinine YouTube video are ineffectual at best and counterproductive at worst. Some jihadists in fact will view the condemnations as proof of their power and influence over American leaders. They had their moments on September 11 and September 12. They need to soon experience a decisive American response.”

    DailyCaller reports:

    “The following day, Sept. 12, Egyptian government officials refused to apologize for failing to stop the lengthy attack in downtown Cairo, and instead pressed Obama to punish the producer of the anti-Islam video.So this video bullshit is just Egypt’s excuse for their failure to protect our embassy. Egypt’s official position is that the attack is our fault.I don’t hear Hillary or what’s-his-face blowing the lid off Egypt’s bullshit. By disavowing the video, even by mentioning the video, the Obama Adminstration validates Egypt’s excuses. A leader would say “Don’t give me this bullshit about the video.” Instead, Obama/Hillary play along with “It’s America’s fault they murdered our Ambassador” because they think somehow it will cover their ass for replacing Qaddafi with Al Qaeda in Libya.

    In the Youtube age, this video could just as well have been made by a teenager, not even an especially tech savvy teenager. It’s beyond idiotic to suggest a video has anything to do with the murder of a U.S. Ambassador. So why is Clinton talking about the video, one way or the other?

    As a long time Hillary supporter, I’m disgusted. And thanks to Romney for pistol-whipping Team Obama into at least getting half-way up off their knees.

    Stevens was raped and paraded through the
    streets, not “taken to the hospital” by some” good samaritans” — there
    are google translated pages from arabic that give the true story. By the
    way, what about Huma — Hillary’s chief aid? Surely this muslim sister
    knew where the Ambassador would be…

    Sadly, even his colleagues (who I know, as we all served in the Peace Corps together with Stevens) are in denial, saying this is a perfect time “for people to come together”….unbelievable! Still singing Kumbaya, thinking that playing nice and drinking tea together will outweigh their conviction to jihad. Go on FB and you can read all about it.

    Here it is Larry, Sept. 20, 2012 and you are absolutely proven to be correct. And Hillary is remarkably absent from the stage—what is going on there? Perhaps she has seen the video of our ambassador being captured tortured and killed and is overwhelmed. Perhaps she knows a terrible truth. And Romney was also right.
