Obama assassination bid fears - aircraft carriers on standby off Irish coast during G8 summit

@Press Eye Ltd Northern Ireland - 17th June 2013 - Mandatory Credit - Brian Little/ Presseye --- Culture Minister Carl N Chuiln and Minister for Education, John O'Dowd MLA waiting for US President Barack Obama during his visit to the Waterfront Hall, Belfast ahead of the G8 Summit in County Fermanagh.

It is understood that a contingency plan is in place for the unlikely event that an attempt would be made on the President’s life.

The Secret Service also have diplomatic immunity which will allow them to shoot to kill a would-be assassin without fear of prosecution.

As part of the “evacuation route” plan, they would be able to spirit the President by chopper to one of the carriers where a jet is on standby to take him back to the United States.

A source said: “It sounds like James Bond stuff but the Americans treat the personal protection of their President with the utmost seriousness.

“They have plans in place for all possible incidents, despite how unlikely they might seem or how much security is already in place.....

Money is no object when it comes to the safety and convenience of Dear Leader.

I’ll sleep better tonight knowing that Caliph Baraq is secure.

[schm0e]

all dictators rant about assassination at some point.

paranoia strikes deep...

[Olog-hai]

They couldn’t have at least half of this for the ambassador in Benghazi, funny enough.

1-800-Orthodontics on that pic..

man, what a waste.. teleconferencing would work just fine..

[popdonnelly]

I think people will believe this to be bizarre. Looks like we’re expecting a full-fledged military invasion of Belfast.

[mardi59]

They don’t want to assassinate the marxist tyrant, they just want to kick his ***.

Another costly bid to build sympathy for the community organizer.

Not even his greatest detractor in the US would wish harm on Bammy! No one wants to make a martyr of him, the worst anyone wishes is for the American people to learn the truth!

[Buckeye McFrog]

If it happens, the perp will most likely be

a) some nut with a pistol

OR

b) a Jihadist with a suicide belt

so.....what good is a FRIGGIN’ AIRCRAFT CARRIER going to do him???????

[Pollster1]

If there is an immediate threat to our Dear Leader, I’m sure the military will protect Obama every bit as energetically as he protected our people in Benghazi. Obama deserves that level of loyalty from our military.

LOL

AMEN! The last thing I want is the death of that jackazz!

[cripplecreek]

In incredible amount of hardware follows wherever the president goes. They even take their own fuel for AF-1 and have even upgraded foreign landing strips to carry the jet and those that follow.

[South40]

I don’t know, it could be a wise move. Do we really want a president Joe Biden?

[Farmer Dean]

Two guys in Benghazi desperately trying to hold back a sea of terrorists,Obama has 200 secret service in Ireland and still it's not enough.

[PeteB570]

I think that is pretty much standard for any US President.

Now the bill the FLOTUS is racking up at Taxpayer expense is something else.

The Mulatto Messiah (the Muslims' best friend) need only fear in Christian Nations.....

Around the world, such as his "Roots" African homeland, he has nothing to worry about except those who want HIS job! LOL

[jazusamo]

Obama knows how our people were ignored in Benghazi by our government, looks like he's making sure he's not ignored should anything go awry.
