Yeah, nothing promotes safety & welfare of our troops like apologizing to people who see it as an act of weakness.

WELL DONE, BARRY!

What a tool.

Yo Barry! Homie! Ever hear of John Wayne?

"Never apologize. It's a sign of weakness."

IHMO, John "Captain Nathan Brittles" Wayne was right. Your apology didn't do much good for those two Americans who were murdered by those religious fanatics over there. You need to start treating the Muzzies the same way you treat Catholics here!

Muslims will riot or kill for whatever reason, real or perceived. Walk past a mosque with a bucket of pork BBQ ribs and see what’ll happen.

Islam is a religion of peace, and Moslems reserve the right to behead anyone who says otherwise.

Notice how the left and the muslims are one and the same.

When there is some perceived outrage by someone on the right by the left, if the person on the right then apologizes the left will go into a feeding frenzy that the perceived outrage is so great that an apology just won't work.

Muslim same thing. You apologize and they will go into a feeding frenzy and the outrage is so great an apology will not work.

Don't anyone try and tell me Zippo didn't know his apology would fan the flames.

such ignorance is hard to accept or believe.

That apology, and the miltary’s mr. milktoast apologies will only embolden the protesters. Apologies to these wretched enemies will cost American lives. They are itching for a confrontation and we should accommodate them. Obviously they are Taliban followers.

The US has dome marvelous things for Afghanistan at many levels, never to be appreciated. But we don't and should not look for kudos - we do what is right because it is the American way.

Well,
Obammy sure ain’t up the Jews rear ends.
And you know with Jeremy Wright, Obammy sure ain’t up the Christians rear ends.
But EVERY time you turn around this marxist punk ass ,”magic negro” sure is up the damned moose limbs rear ends.

This will only encourage more of the cult of death to sacrifice more of our troops to their satanic god, allah the pig as reparations since they know hussein will do nothing to retaliate but offer more apologies.
