Who cares about the King Tut relics or the pyramids or Sphinx? Let the world see who these thugs really are.

Technically, legal-speak, they have invaded US territory. How is it not news worthy?

put out a statement earlier on Tuesday condemning those who hurt the religious feelings of Muslims or followers of any other religions.

It was not immediately clear which film angered protesters.

So, we apologized already even without knowing what we're apologizing for?

And so what have we done ... we put out a statement before the attack condemning those who hurt Muslim feelings. This sounds like another Obama apology.

“black flag” = appropriately chosen color.

And, it’s “Al Reuters,” BTW.

That Obama, what a snake oil salesman.

Notice it does not say Marines fired those shots. Makes me wonder if State had them locked up in the basement.

This whole thing appears choreographed and smells to high heaven.

Happy Anniversary, right? And 0bama just finished bleating about how we will "never be at war with Islam".

If I posted what I'm thinking I'd be banned.

It’s been a while since I’ve been to our embassy in Cairo. It was like a fortress in 1997, and I can only imagine that they’ve beefed it up significantly since 9/11. Attackers are lucky the Marines didn’t blow their heads off.

“Who cares about the King Tut relics or the pyramids or Sphinx? Let the world see who these thugs really are.”

I do. These are treasure irreplaceable and shouldn’t be destroyed just to “prove” what everyone knows. That the infestation of Moslems in Egypt that occurred thousands of years after those were created, is an ongoing tragedy. Islam hadnt even been invented yet when those pyramids were built.

The current inhabitants of Egypt are not the people who built those amazing structures. This is exactly why we buit neutron bombs. And im 100% serious. Wipes out the infestation, and leaves the buildings intact. This should be considered. Ditto for Mecca. There no reason to destroy these old buildings,,they didn’t do anything wrong.

Heh - I would have thought we had closed up shop in Egypt awhile ago. Although I guess I wouldn’t mind images of choppers on the roof of the embassy a few weeks before election day.
