anyone noticed that ore Americans are being taken all over the world in these last couple of years, now if we had a non biased non corrupt media obama would be swept out of office with all this crap going on.

obama made a fool of himself and this country by appeasing to muslims America is looking weak and just think about it.

WE STILL DO NOT KNOW EHRE OBAMA WAS WHEN THE ATTACK HAPPENED IN LIBYA

Did he watch the attack live time in the sit room?

who gace that order to stand down?

This is months later and FRIGGING NOTHING FROM THE MEDIA, THE GOP AND THE WHITE HOUSE.

Powell basically said the 4 shoudl not have been there and it was their fault.

We do not know where obama was during these attacks, did he go to sleep knowing the attacks were taking place?

Months later and we have no answers, the culprits are still out there, we are a laughing stoick since this muppett went over there and appeased them in his speeches.

The MNLA and Ansar Dine fight each other.

Ansar Dine and AQIM are provisionally allied.

MUJWA and AQIM fight each other sometimes and have a truce sometimes.

MUJWA and Ansar Dine have connections to one another and seem to work together sometimes.

What seems to happen is that when one of these groups conquer a town, they will fight anyone else who tries to take it, but they will sometimes ally themselves with another group that is fighting the government over a disputed territory.

They are all enemies of the government.

I hope the Americans are not former military because they might end up line Jon Hammar.

At least .. that was my conclusion to the incident - Jon was ignored because he was MILITARY. Obama hates the military.

I can see why Panetta asked the Pope to pray for him a few days ago. He’s not a bright man amd was a Clinton stooge, but I think he’s pretty pro-American. That’s why Bambi picked him...to hang him out to dry.

Quick someone find an unelected official to publicly announce he's been cheating on his wife so we can get this out of the news.

I need to start investing in companies that make easy to fall on swords.

Look at the news sites. This story is buried about 7 to 10 stories down the list. Nothing to see here. Again, if this was Bush, it would have been plastered all over the headlines.

...if a hostage is taken and no one’s there to tape it, did it really happen???

You mean they didn’t have a video to blame it on? Bummer of Obo, he can’t say al qaeda is dead now. Meanwhile prayers for the hostages.

Investors Business Daily ran an article recently that claims the Muslim Brotherhood has infiltrated top positions in the Obama administration and that Obama has been supplying terrorists through a supply chain originating from Benghazi. The claims were made by a foreign journalist

no one seems to care . I posted the article here and it got about 20 hits in the first 5 minutes but the mods immediatly buried it in "blogs" for some reason

This nonsense will continue until the West deals with the Saudi source. The Wahibbi fundamentalist radicals who operate freely in Saudi Arabia are funding and motivating the world wide Islamic terror wave. The decadent royal Saudi family is terrified of them and the radicals do not bother them as long as they get funded and are allowed to operate.

You are totally correct.

And yet, this goes unreported, undiscussed, unseen. I fear that by the time people wake up to the extent of the Saudi corruption and threat, it will be too late.

...but his point was, Benghazi was only 4 people, no big deal, didn't matter.

To quote Dear Leader, "bumps in the road"...
