US withdraws staff from consulate in Lahore, Pakistan,over terror threat
Fox News Channel ^ | 8/9/13

Posted on 08/09/2013 4:13:51 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

The State Department has evacuated non-emergency U.S. government personnel from the U.S. Consulate in Lahore, Pakistan, and has warned Americans to defer all non-essential travel to Pakistan due to 'specific threats' to that mission, a U.S. official said.

In the travel warning issued Thursday night, the State Department advised Americans to defer all nonessential travel to Pakistan.

“The presence of several foreign and indigenous terrorist groups poses a potential danger to U.S. citizens throughout Pakistan,” the statement read. “The Government of Pakistan maintains heightened security measures, particularly in the major cities. Threat reporting indicates terrorist groups continue to seek opportunities to attack locations where U.S. citizens and Westerners are known to congregate or visit.”

America is respected even less now than it was in 1979 and 1980, when the extremely weak Jimmy Carter was around.

Obama, Hillary, and Kerry have constituted the biggest trio of sissies in one administration.

LMAO. I had to look that one up and it aint pretty.

Good description though.

And right after Obama stated that he wouldn’t run.

Obama is like a cockroach when the lights come on scrambling for the dark.

I don’t know why we have consulates or embassies in these hell holes anyway. Waste of money & time... but we are good at wasting money.

Here we go.

In a [Pakistani] television interview later, Kerry said of the drone strikes, "I think the program will end as we have eliminated most of the threat and continue to eliminate it."

“I believe that we’re on a good track,” Mr. Kerry said in an interview on Pakistani television. “I think the program will end as we have eliminated most of the threat and continue to eliminate it.”

Its astounding the amount of false crap these clowns spout with no pushback from the media.

Just the other day, Susan Power declared Libya to be a success.

These are all false flag events.

My overwhelming concern on all of this: what’s the end game? I truly believe they are putting a plan into motion. Something is going on behind the scenes.
