New details emerge of deadly attack on US Consulate in Libya
FOX News ^ | October 21, 2012 | Greg Palkot

EXCERPTS

A credible witness tells Fox News that, prior to the attack, he heard a mob approaching the mission’s front gate, chanting blood-thirsty slogans, before they broke in. He said it was less like a demonstration and more like a warm-up to battle.

This could explain how others thought, including some I spoke with, that the attack started as a protest.

(snip)

There were several closed-circuit camera installations.While attackers targeted some, they appear to be intact and could already be supplying key video evidence regarding the start of the attack and the movement of the mob.

(snip)

What Fox News did hear though, throughout the visit, was the unmistakable hum of surveillance aircraft circling over Benghazi. Some folks most assuredly are listening, watching, waiting and trying to make sense of the still muddled scene down below.

"Yeah, everyone brings shoulder fired weapons to a protest."

Yeah, and they always go out with those weapons to protest a film after dark.

The truth lies among all 20 of those people who were saved. Someone is going to have to break and tell the truth. They would not be alive if it were not for Tyrone and Glen. Someone will talk!

The real catalyst for the global Islamic riots remains Obama and the DNC bragging about bagging Osama.

(A quick Blackberry grab off the web)

“Obama, Obama, we are all Osama” the crowd chanted outside the U.S. Embassy in Cairo on Sept. 11. The slogan also found its way to Tunis, where a mob attacked the embassy as well, and the chant was taken up in Qatar and other Muslim countries.

___________________________

The MB and AQ in Egypt fomented the Sept 11, 2012 mob riots to provide cover for the paramilitary assault on the US Consulate in Benghazi, which had been under observation for some time before 9-11-2012.

After the first news of the North African riots the rest of the Islamic world followed in kind as they always have. Mindless savages taking bloody minded offense at cloud formations.

I’ve deflated several local Dems who have some small remnant of integrity and followed up by web searches of their own to find some truth.

It’s important to keep slamming the with this first lie by the Administration from which the remainders of the cover up stem.

Of course any reason is useless against those that hold the idea that Big Bird’s lady parts are under assault.

...can you document that?

I only guessed at the "5 mortar" movie rating, so the answer is 'no'.

are there any Americans among the 20 saved? Are there any reports of their nationalities at all? Is the press asking about these 20 people?

Not sure who’s blood covers the toilet, or bloody hand print smeared down the wall. Disturbing as hell, isn’t it? Who’s DNA?

You should know, your efforts resulted in the rescue of over 20 Department of State personnel.

it says they were State Department Personnel... at least SOME of them should be Americans, and regardless, if somebody saves your LIFE, and you don't acknowledge it, in my opinion, their effort was wasted!
