I heard it was because of a video....
Hilliary should know. She has unfettered access to youtube and the makings of jihad.
Why would they suddenly pretend to care about “Americans” elsewhere in the world?
My guess: Somebody finally stepped up to the plate and has risked his life to tell the explosive truth about what the elected and appointed USA government idiots were actually doing in that region...
Hint-Nobody is going to be happy,happy, happy about it.
You mean there were Americans stupid enough to even be in Libya? The religion of peace must be acting up again.
Susan Rice and Samantha Power are the 2 geniuses responsible for this mess.
He listens to Rice because she was a good basketball player and Power because she went to Harvard and runs around screaming “Genocide” every 2 minutes.
Preparing to Wag the Dog. Take the heat off recent bad press. Get Americans to rally around the troops. Probably bomb an aspirin factory or two.
Libyan civil war
As the 2011 Libyan civil war progressed, Rice made clear that the United States and the international community saw only one choice for Gaddafi and his aides: step down from power or face significant consequences. Rice offered some of the toughest rhetoric toward Gaddafi, blasting his denials of atrocities against his own citizens as “frankly, delusional”.
Several UN diplomats said that in a closed door meeting on April 28, Rice’s claims of Gaddafi’s atrocities included the issuance of Viagra to loyalists in order to further terrorize the population with sexual violence.[41][42] Together with National Security Council figure Samantha Power, who already supported military intervention, and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who came to support it, the three overcame internal opposition from Defense Secretary Robert Gates, security adviser Thomas Donilon, and counterterrorism adviser John Brennan, to have the administration advance a UN proposal to impose a no-fly zone over Libya and authorize other military actions as necessary.[19][43]
On March 17, 2011, the UK, France and Lebanon joined Rice to vote for United Nations Security Council Resolution 1973 while Brazil, Germany, and India joined permanent Security Council members China and Russia in abstaining. Rice and Clinton played major roles in gaining approval for the resolution.[19][44] Clinton said that same day that establishing a no-fly zone over Libya would require the bombing of air defenses. Rice said that “we are interested in a broad range of actions that will effectively protect civilians and increase the pressure on the Gaddafi regime to halt the killing and to allow the Libyan people to express themselves in their aspirations for the future freely and peacefully”.[45]
In January 2012 after the Russian and Chinese veto of another Security Council resolution calling on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to step down, Rice strongly condemned both countries, saying, “They put a stake in the heart of efforts to resolve this conflict peacefully”, adding that “we the United States are standing with the people of Syria. Russia and China are obviously with Assad.”[46] In her words, “the United States is disgusted that a couple of members of this Council continue to prevent us from fulfilling our sole purpose”.[47]
Some Security Council diplomats took issue with Rice’s negotiating style, calling it “rude” and overly blunt. According to David Rothkopf of Foreign Policy magazine, Rice is known for her “abrasiveness” but has the asset of a close relationship with the U.S. president. Human rights activists took issue with Rice and U.S. foreign policy generally in 2012 for working against U.N. statements that criticized Rwanda for supporting a rebel group in Congo known for committing atrocities.[
It goes without saying this is all about Hillary 2016.
Thank you.
Hillary gave the AlQaeda WEAPONS!!!! to beat Qadaffi— THAT IS REASON!!
I am so glad they are concerned about American citizens in Libya to give them a warning to leave. On the other ambassadors are just told to stay put and die

Marines on standby - things must be going poorly for the President’s Al Queda friends there in Libya, time to intervene? I hear the US military is to train Al Queda in Syria too, is that right? And whats up with keeping 10,000 troops in Afghanistan?
Military and foreign policy shambles. Meanwhile Poland and Romania are terrified of the Bear.
Since when does the State Dept. care about Americans in Libya?
What does it matter?
(obvious /sarc...)
too much bad press over these terrorists sitting in cafes. We must be going in after them,
More human speedbumps in the road ahead?
Why there? Real question. India is Hindu and just put down some attempts from the Muslim facists. They have little tolerance for Islam. Guess I've missed something you're suggesting.
But then, I never thought we'd have a president who would bow to Saudi royalty. Among all the anti-American crap Obambi and Dimocrats have forced upon on us domestically and internationally, that is THE most obscene action I've ever seen in my life. I really didn't like Obambi from the beginning, but when the leader of the USA bowed to a Saudi royal, I almost threw up.
I hate that man who is soiling our Oval Office. And as I said before, hate is human emotion like love, envy, joy, fear, courage, et al for good or bad. It's just a matter of over-coming the destructive emotions us human's naturally have.
The Fedgov/States can pass laws about hate talk, but that is un-Constitutional to the 1st Amendment. You think the Founding Fathers didn't hate the tyrannical rule of England? Don't remember the word actually being used in all their writings, but hate against oppression of self-determination was at the core of our founding.
