It’s a fair question.
We have two photos, with two people handling the body. Most photos of a body being dragged through the street are when they are dragged by the feet or by the arms. These guys are carrying him from under his arms or over the shoulder.
If I were by myself and I wanted to bring someone to the hospital, I might sling the body over my shoulder or drag him from under the arms. OTOH, with those many guys around, somebody could have made a makeshift stretcher out of drapes, a coat, etc. Or at least could have helped carry the body to a car.
In the top photo, the guy with the phone in his mouth is probably trying to help, but whoever is yanking on his right arm is not helping. The ambassador is not dead in that photo, but is being helped to die by part of the mob. It’s disgusting. No doubt the MSM will never show that photo “out of respect to the family”.
Let’s review yesterday......
Our flag was desecrated on our own embassy grounds in Cairo. A nation where Obama was instrumental in installing the Muslim Brotherhood to power and deposing a man we had supported for years who honored treaties. The flag of AQ, our sworn enemies, was displayed in our embassy on the anniversary of 9/11. All this in a nation we have and continue to give billions in foreign aid.
Our consulate in Libya was burned and our Ambassador and other Americans were murdered. A nation this administration deployed our military and other resources to assist these murderers topple their own government to replace it with.... this. The images of our Ambassador being dragged through the streets, regardless of the circumstances, is horrible imagery.
The statements of this administration in response to the situation in Egypt conflicted with one another and illustrated a weakness that most Americans recognize. This guy apologized to Muslims knowing that our ambassador was dead? Seriously?
Don’t fool yourself.... don’t be fooled by the media spin. Yesterday was a sad day for our nation and a very bad day for Obama politically. In hindsight, this will be one of the worst days for this administration bringing back bad memories and comparisons to events in Tehran decades ago with another Democrat President presiding over a weak economy and foreign policy.
In Times Square it’s a fair question. What are the chances of a rational soul in the midst of that mob? And if one were found, would he be dumb enough to distinguish himself by caring for or saving the mob’s prey?
