Catherine Sebelius would be equivalent to Adolf Eichmann or Joseph Mengele?

Neither. HHS has no equivalent in the old Nazi regime. Eichmann and Mengele, for all their crimes, were middle functionaries, and not Cabinet-level people.

Now on Drudge

State Department sets up 24-hour monitoring team for embassy crisis
The State Department has gone into full-blown crisis mode, organizing a round-the-clock effort to coordinate the U.S. government’s response to the expanding attacks on U.S. embassies in the Middle East and North Africa.

“The State Department has stood up a 24-hr monitoring team to insure appropriate coordination of information and our response. In addition, our consular team is working with missions around the world to protect American citizens and issue appropriate public warden information,” a senior State Department official told reporters Friday afternoon.

Kind of an interesting response for a State Dept who says the protests are not targeting the US, don’tchya think, Jay?

Yea right. I guess we'll need to redefine death to America now.
Which America, South? North? Since the terrorists didn't exactly define
which America they want to die it's up the the Messiah to interpret the true
meaning and then bless us all with his words of holy wisdom.

I'm so sick of this crap.

It dovetails with rumblings I’m getting elsewhere...

Next thing to watch: troop movements.

I know it’s the wrong thread and I’ll go over in a second but this just kills me!

Pentagon Spox Won’t Confirm Marines Had Live Ammo
\However, Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs George Little would not clearly state whether the Marines had live ammunition during a press briefing earlier today.

When contacted by the Free Beacon, Pentagon spokeswoman Monica Matoush said that she was unable to clarify Little’s comments, and directed this reporter to the State Department.

A senior State Department official told the Free Beacon: “The Marines on duty at Embassy Cairo had ammunition in their weapons, as they always do at all our Missions overseas when they are on duty.”

U.S. Marines carry weapons, Little repeatedly stated during his Friday briefing.

“And Eric Holder is parallel to Ernst Rohm.”

To the extent of mirroring Rohm’s “after-hours” pursuits?

good comparisons, by the way

WE are all Osama now

“The crowd chanted, “Islamic, Islamic. The right of our prophet will not die.” Some shouted, “We are all Osama,” referring to al-Qaida leader bin Laden. Young men, some in masks, sprayed graffiti on the walls.”

Question is how long is our country going to wait to REALLY deal with the Muslim problem? At any moment for any reason from now throughout the future, Muslims around the world can decide to rise up en masse in violence against non-Muslims. By waiting to deal with them once and for all, all we ensure is that someday, eventually they will grow powerful enough to truly bring down the western world in one of their uprisings.

White House press secretary Jay Carney said Friday the violent protests throughout the Middle East are not directed at the United States or U.S. policy but are a response to a YouTube video:

CARNEY: We also need to understand that this is a fairly volatile situation and it is in response not to United States policy, and not to, obviously, the administration, or the American people, but it is in response to a video, a film that we have judged to be be reprehensible and disgusting. That in no way justifies any violent reaction to it, but this is not a case of protests directed at the United States writ large or at U.S. policy, this is in response to a video that is offensive to Muslims.

Again, this is not in any way justifying violence, and we have spoken very clearly out against that and condemned it. And the president is making sure in his conversations with leaders around the region that they are committed as hosts to diplomatic facilities to protect both personnel and buildings and other facilities that are part of the U.S. representation in those countries.

The protests which began earlier this week have expanded rapidly across the Middle East on Friday.

Protesters attacked the U.S. Embassies in Tunis and Sudan; Tunisian protesters smashed windows and lit fires inside the embassy compound, while gunfire could be heard. Images of a dark column of smoke over the Tunisian site have circulated on the Internet Friday.

According to a page on the State Department’s website describing what an embassy is, an attack on an embassy is considered an attack on that country.

“Because an embassy represents a sovereign state, any attack on an embassy is considered an attack on the country it represents,” the page reads.

If Carney boy was telling the truth, wouldn’t it have made more sense for the raggies to attack a Red Box rental machine or a video rental joint instead of Hardee’s and Kentucky Fried Chicken?

LOL. Any one that believes this bogus stuff from Carney, must believe pigs fly, the Pope is NOT Catholic, and would naively purchase swampland in Florida, to name just a few examples.

Maybe they mistook KFC for Chick Fi Le, the other "threat to national security" besides a the dreaded badly made video ridiculing Mohammed. /s
