Flame Wars
Tar and Feathers ^ | 9-19-12 | Iratus Vulgas

We might be facing the most embarrassing moment in the history of human civilization. A couple of decades from now, some history book might appear with the following entry: “World War III Sparked by YouTube Video.” It’s a silly pretext that could easily be a story line for a “South Park” episode, but in this case, truth is stranger than fiction. If you buy into the ridiculous media reports, you’re supposed to believe that angry Muslims in Egypt, Libya, and throughout the Middle East exploded into deadly violence on Sept. 11 in reaction to a YouTube video they found insulting. Incredible but true.

Not only is the media sticking to this ludicrous story, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney remains firm that the violence “is in response not to United States policy…but it is in response to a video.” Incredible but true. If that’s not enough to stretch your credulity beyond the limits of reality, consider that Susan Rice, US Ambassador to the UN is promoting her version of this fiction of the absurd which she described as a “spontaneous response” to a “very offensive video.” Incredible but true.

It's sad to think that the Obama Administration and the media have taken us for witless dupes gullible enough to swallow such a poorly conceived political fabrication. It’s more than just 180 degrees opposed to anything remotely plausible. Even in the Bizarro World they’d be scratching their heads saying “this too far out to be true.”

Here in the age of viral videos and pop culture memes, you might nevertheless assume that no thinking person could possibly believe that international relations are driven by YouTube videos and fringe-cult bloggers. Yet the Obama administration seems to have reduced US foreign policy to a social networks flame war. God help us if we've gotten that stupid.

It’s a silly pretext that could easily have been triggered by a “South Park” episode:

South Park's "Episode 201" - the Mohammed Episode that was heavily censored even in the United States. I'm confused on why they would censor it. Islam is a religion of peace, and only intolerant right-wing bigots would suggest that Muslims would react like a bunch of crazy people. Why would the far left censors in Hollywood edit out a bit of innocent humor?

And of course, there are millions of videos to choose from, so they'll never run out of things to explode about.

It's more than embarrassing, it's devastating because it's the result of a country's population that is losing it's morals. The muslims are what they are and we can't change it, but our own leaders and people are full of greed, and any lie is acceptable to achieve their purpose.

Proverbs 30:12 "There is a generation that is pure in their own eyes, yet are not washed from their filthiness".

I would not be surprised to learn that the intention of the regime is to use this ridiculous premise as a reason to repeal the first amendment.

Indeed! The fire has been lit.

The move is on to consolidate the Muslim world under the Muslim Brotherhood.

People still believe 0bama's foreign policy is simply bumbling and incompetence.

0bama has set Israel up the bomb...

Sept. 11, 2012

Netanyahu gets the cold shoulder.

U.S. has no right to block Israel on Iran: Netanyahu

The embassy in Cairo puts out an apology for a movie most of the rioters know nothing about.

Former deputy national security adviser: US response to embassy attack ‘bizarre and unacceptable’

0bama sends a letter to Tehran assuring them that the U.S. will do nothing to help Israel taking that off of the table removing a big worry for them that might have made them think twice. Iran is good to go now with 0bama's blessing.

We don't support Israeli attack, US tells Iran

The "movie" turns out to be a red herring excuse to cover for the rioters.

CNN: Protests against film a ‘diversion. Attack was planned’

Quite a day of unfortunate coincidences. Israel was rebuffed and there were signals being sent to the MB and Iran. 0bama is giving the "go ahead" to the Muslim world to take out Israel.

Obama Admin Transferred 3,000 Detainees to Afghan Gov't Control Day Before 9/11

UNREAL… Obama Invites Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood President to Meet Next Week – Refuses to Meet Netanyahu

The White House hands Iran's Ahmadinejad a global megaphone

REPORTS: No Live Ammo for Marines

-------------------------------------------------------

CNN: Protests against film a ‘diversion. Attack was planned’

Egypt intelligence warns (on Sept 4th) of attacks on Israel, US embassies

Congress was warned about Libya last month

-------------------------------------------------------

U.S. denies premeditation report
"The Obama administration is flatly denying a blaring British newspaper report that the U.S. diplomats in Libya were killed as a result of a “continuing security breach,” and that “credible information” about possible attacks had been ignored. A U.S. official told POLITICO: “There's no intelligence indicating that the attack in Benghazi was premeditated.”"

Is that all incompetence? Or did it take planning to make all that happen?
Cloward & Pliven strategy and community organizing on a global scale?

This isn't just about getting re-elected, that's certainly a side benefit, this is about the big enchilada. No more Israel. The United States of the Muslim Brotherhood in the ME. ie the new Caliphate.

A couple years back, I started immediately ignoring anything someone wrote with the word “memes”...

“Memes” is the “paradigm shift” of the 2010’s.

Lol!

Well, I don’t blame a guy for trying.

But “witless dupes gullible enough to swallow such a poorly conceived political fabrication”????

There’s a McDonalds somewhere that desperately needs a wanabee writer!!

IF ?

This video is what caused all this on 9/11/12 in Egypt and Benghazi Libya in their " Spontaneous " response to that Video,
Then ?
Wouldn't logic tell you that in the prior months leading up to the 9/11/12 Muslim attacks, opps, Muslim protest, that ?
It would it be logical according to the press and this Administration's official word that ?

There would be other " FILMS " that would explain the other attacks in Benghazi in May ? June ? Aug ? this year ? right ?

So ?
So the logical question is ?
Where are the other films that caused those other " Spontaneous " Muslim attacks, opps, Muslim protests ?

Yes, that's right, according to the press and this Administration's logic that the " FILM " was the cause of this, then the other attacks, opps, Muslim protest prior that lead up to 9/11/12 would have caused those other attacks, opps, Muslim protests in Benghazi.
