CNN’s Hala Gorani reported via Twitter that the network now believes that the Islamists who attacked the Libyan consulate used the existence of an anti-Muhammad film as a “diversion”:

US sources tell CNN say attackers who targeted consulate used protests against film as a diversion. Say attack was planned. #Libya

REPORT: No Record of Obama Attending Intel Briefings Week Before Attack...

Press Here

According to the White House calendar, there is no public record of President Barack Obama attending his daily intelligence briefing--known as the Presidential Daily Brief (PDB)--in the week leading up to the attacks on the U.S. embassy in Cairo and the murder of U.S. Libyan Ambassador Chris Stevens and three American members of his staff:

The last time prior to the slayings that the White House calendar publicly confirms Mr. Obama attending his daily intelligence briefing was September 5th. (The White House did not provide an official public calendar for September 8-10.) Mr. Obama and Vice President Joe Biden met with Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta at 5:00 p.m. yesterday.

It’d cure 99% of the World’s terrorism with one strike.

Completely wrong. Sorry, but it is just DEAD WRONG.

The people who ORDER and PAY for terrorist acts do not make the Hajj. Matter of fact, many of those involved are in our GOVERNMENT.

Why do you think Hillary skipped the DNC Convention and has been traveling to the Middle East ?

Exactly. When the UN says we violated their resolutions, just say “Ok.... what are you going to do about it?”

If it works for Iran and North Korea, I’m sure it will work for us too.

CBS News: Libyan Security team move Ambassador, then told mob

CBS News ^ | 12 Sept 2012 | CBS News with AP input

Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2012 1:11:40 PM by mbarker12474

CBS story: http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-202_162-57511043/assault-on-u.s-consulate-in-benghazi-leaves-4-dead-including-u.s-ambassador-j-christopher-stevens/?tag=stack

CBS story quote, about half-way down: “He said Stevens, 52, and other officials were moved to a second building - deemed safer - after the initial wave of protests at the consulate compound. According to al-Sharef, members of the Libyan security team seem to have indicated to the protesters the building to which the American officials had been relocated, and that building then came under attack.”

The President should be in all the security briefings but this clown has not even been to even half of them in his first year and even less this year.

The media need to be dragged through the streets and told to do your damn job for once and stop covering for your messiah.

I know I saw one local news channel and I told them flat what I thought, we should have protested outside their HQ’s in our thousands when the tea party was going on

Hillary Clinton: How could this happen in a country we helped liberate?

Do I see a massive breakdown in national security out of this? Of course I do. Make no mistake, American embassies and consulates are American soil. Coupled with the threads about Obama not attending national security briefings, up to and including yesterday, this has to be one of America's darkest moments. Either there was no intelligence in advance on these demonstrations (something I find impossible to believe), or his national security team made little to no effort to communicate the urgency of the situation. For, obviously, we can't count on him to be proactive.

What I now wonder is, who is going to follow up on this?

The 'film' is not at the level of Lawrence of Arabia or even the worst professional movie released in the United States in my memory. It's more like a middle school "art" project made by a particularly inept kid with no time for script, plot, or other frills. It's a string of dumb scenes and insults to Islam, but it does not actually entertain or inform the viewer (yes, I watched it).

Where did such a pathetic film come from and why? My guess: the film was created as a provocation by the Muslim Brotherhood. It certainly didn't come from our side.

his illogic is basically “Criticizing Obama is what makes his bad ideas stop working.”

Just ask him if we stopped condemning mob attacks would they stop? if no, then point out that its the same with Obama.
Obama should do the right thing no matter what anyone says. In reality Obama is a feckless leader and needed Romney to lead to know what to say.

When he says yes, point out that nobody condemned the mob until AFTER it happened!

It wasn’t Hillary that ordered those men to attack the Consulate. It wasn’t Obama out there dragging our Ambassador through the streets.

We are at war against islam. What is islam's holiest place? Mecca! Nuke it till nothing will ever grow there again. And since the attack happend in Libya, nuke tropoli too.

And then publicize that we'll call it even. Let them know that the next attack on Americans will rsult in the eradication of Medina and the capitol of the country where th attack takes place (or the home country of the attackers if the attack takes place here)

For hundreds of years Roman citizens could safely travel anywhere in the world, because the people knew that if they attacked a Roman citizen their own country would be destroyed.

It is better to be feared than to be loved. It's time to remind the moslems to fear us.
