Hillary Clinton: How could this happen in a country we helped liberate?
Washington Examiner ^ | September 12, 2012 | Charlie Spring

Posted on 09/12/2012 11:32:03 AM PDT by Zakeet

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton admitted this morning that the attack on the U.S. embassy in Libya was "not easy" for Americans.

"Today many Americans are asking, indeed I asked myself, 'How could this happen? How could this happen in a country we helped liberate? In a city we helped save from destruction?'" Clinton asked.

Clinton explained that this question "reflects how confounding the world can be" and reminded Americans to be "clear-eyed in their grief."

Could it be because Muslims hate our guts, call us the Great Satan and Israel the little Satan, and would like to see us converted or dead - either being fine? Nah.

even after Reagan dropped those bombs.

ole kernel mo-ham-ar got real humble after the bombs blew up his house didnt he ???

fast forward to W 'asking' him to either dismantle his NBC programs, or be considered a valid target, and well, brute force was the understood motivator...

fast fOrward again to 'the call to prayer is the [swish] prettiest sound on earth'...and well again, the knowledge of no sticks to follow the carrots and the bloodthirsty savages show their true colors...

pantsuits is clueless on how to tame her attack dogs...sooner or later, they will bite her big ass...

A republican form of government will never work in the Muslim world. The best one cam hope for is one controlled by a friendly army like existed in Egypt prior to Obama.

when you try to be friends with moslems like Ron Paul wants to do or try to help them, they just smile in your face and laugh behind your back at how naive and gullible you are.

Hey Hillry, ‘what did you know’ and ‘when did you know it’?

I remember your words on the Senate floor accusing President Bush responsibility for 9/11...

I’ve seen posts that claim that there were no marines guarding the ambassador, that there were Libyan guards, who may have been left over from the Gaddafi army. That doesn’t sound possible, but that’s what I read somewhere.

Remember how when we captured Saddam, the libs first concern was that Saddam’s trial would be fair.

Gadaffy and Osama didn’t even get a trial.

Obama likes to claim credit for getting Osama. Why hasn’t he tried Khalid Sheikh Mohammed yet?

Hillary, with the help of the media, pretends to be a great diplomat, administrator, patriot, etc. Now that "we" elected a black POTUS, we need a woman next!

That is not necessarily a bad idea, but Hillary, who twisted the arm of Honduras to keep a leftist, Chavez-buddy President???

Speaking of Reagan, It would be OK if they could find somebody more like Jean Kirkpatrick There is no guarantee that Romney would appoint a Sec, of State comparable to Kirkpatrick.

The Liberal Establishment is more serious about taking out the domestic political opposition than they are about winning the War on Terror against Islamonazism.

These “liberated” persons need to find the love of Jesus and then they will be truly liberated. Their hatred will not change because we killed their dictator.
