Not seeing a problem here. I’ve said forever that the sooner we can get a weapon, at least a pistol, into the hands of every arab, the sooner peace will break out in the middle east. Give ém to ém-—let them blow themselves to hell until they learn common courtesy and settle every last 12th century feud that’s been biting their collective buttz.

Rience will say “Obama, if you don’t stop those bad things you are doing, Jeb and Chris Christie won’t debate Hillary in 2016, so there”.

Of course, but I guarantee you when the truth finally rises to surface on Benghazi and this regime arming terrorists all over Middle East.....we are going to find that McCain,Graham,Pete King and other rinos and dems on select intelligence committees knew about it. Go look who on our side is blocking a Select Committee on Benghazi...who is out in front on TV on this terror threat! People who are defending the NSA over reach and refusing to investigate Benghazi gun running. It is same crowd.

Have the American people EVER been so ashamed of their government?

They don't know enough to be ashamed.

Good work. A very alarming and interesting report.

I’m still puzzled about what platform they used for the firing.

There ARE ground-based hellfire platforms but almost all I’m aware of are still in prototype stages of development.

This should be followed, but I’m still skeptical, and this photo might be borrowed from another engagement and used here for propoganda purposes.

The public at large considers, “a missile is a missile”.

My view is that we are close to a revolution in this country. People ,like you, are tired of the Coup-de’etat against our constitution and our culture. Look for Bravehart very soon. This will not be pretty.

Must’ve got it because of that gun show loophole we’ve been hearing about.

Maybe some fresh covert shipment for the express purpose of empowering the MB, but why not from Benghazi. Only the Jihadis and their US handlers, if any, know for sure.

See post 28.

I’d say any decent engineer with a little time & maybe access to a machine shop and some easily obtainable parts & materials could manage something like this. I’m not sure what it takes to program the guidance, though. It’d be a mistake to underestimate our enemies, in any case.

"Egypt claims jihadists fired US Hellfire missile at government office"

Your tax dollars at work.

Making people "shovel ready" around the world is another obama legacy embellishment.
