EXCLUSIVE: McCain praised Libyan rebels at site of their gruesome public beheading
The Daily Caller ^ | 09/15/2011 | John Rosenthal

Evidence collected by a young London-based organization called Human Rights Investigations indicates that when Arizona GOP Sen. John McCain went to Benghazi in April to express his support for Libyan rebels, he visited the site at which the rebels publicly beheaded an alleged pro-Gaddafi “mercenary” only weeks before.

Arizona senator John McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential candidate, made a surprise visit to Benghazi in order to publicly call for stepped-up American support of the rebellion. McCain spoke glowingly of the rebels and their cause, even saying of the Libyan rebels: “They are my heroes.”

Now a new video has surfaced showing that during that visit, McCain both promised American support for the rebels and toured the location of the gruesome public decapitation.

Members of the group walking with McCain wave American flags, and shouts of “Allahu Akbar!” ring out as a smiling McCain walks by the site of the beheading.

In his April 22 press release, Sen. McCain praised the Libyan rebellion as “a powerful and hopeful example of what a free Libya could be — a place where the dignity and the desires of all people for freedom and opportunity are respected.”

“We need to increase our support,” McCain’s statement concluded, “so that the Libyan people can achieve the only satisfactory outcome to this mass protest for universal rights: the end of Qaddafi’s rule and the beginning of a peaceful and inclusive transition to democracy that will benefit all Libyans.”

Grusome stuff. Was McCain clueless? Willfully blind to what amounts to a war-crime? It's hard to say.

But water boarding terrorist to keep America safe is considered torture. McLame is the most dangerous man in the Senate. He is a piece of human debris and knew full well who he was hanging out with in Libya.

And this is our Palin-endorsed senator from Arizona—a demented old man in office for how many more years.

If anyone else did it, it would be a war crime.

Muzzies get a pass, they do it to their own daughters.

It’s going to be interesting what the libs and RINOs like McCain have to say when Libya is run by psycho Muslims calling for the death of Israel and the Great Satan USA and all that Jazz.

Who did Palin endorse again? I thought it was McCain. Maybe I’m mis-remembering.

Is there any proof supporting this or is this just another lie by leftist goons?

But it was a humane beheading with a sharp blade, so unlike the barbaric torture of waterboarding. /s

Touchy. I looked it up. Palin DID endorse McCain.

Dumbass.

The only reason we are stuck with McCain for 6 more years is Palin.

Americans are given front row seats at Friday beheading ceremonies in Saudi Arabia.

That's because Arabs put Arab scum in front rows because that's where the spurting blood flows.

McCain just can’t help supporting terrorist groups. He must see something in them he can relate to.
