friend of mine always drives by the local theater and says " that will be her undoing " . ( you know who) i finaly asked him this question. " weve had other embassy killings before . why is this one so important? he flew off the handle and said " should of never happened . wait a minute . that isnt an answer . i want a fucking answer . a straight answer. these people dont have any answer . even though i am voting for sanders and not u know who.sorry for the rant. i needed to vent somewhere .i dont think that she had anything to do with it. note : it is very mysteryous that the bengazzi comittee became very silent . i feel that this is republicon monies involved in this .

This has NOTHING to do with the death of an Ambassador that if they knew him they would have HATED him.

Lifelong diplomat?

Fuck, these assholes would have HATED him if he hadnt died ...

The way they HATE Obama because he was a community organizer (well of course the reason they hate him is his skin color, but they would hate any liberal who tried to help poor people)

In April 1983, radical Shiite suicide bombers blew up the US embassy in Beirut, killing 63. Reagan did nothing to prevent this attack, and his ultimate response to it and a later deadly attack on US Marines in Beirut was to quietly withdraw from Lebanon (he called it “redeploying offshore”). Democrats at the time controlled Congress but they didn’t have endless hearings on how Reagan failed our diplomats by not being prepared, not about whether it was wise for Reagan to shell Lebanese villages from the sea and kill 1,000 people.

While there have been other attacks on embassys. What they are fixed upon are the rumors that the Military was told to hold back on launching a rescue. And the comment about Youtube video being responsible. Don't know that a pair of F-15's flying overhead would have made any difference. But for some people the lack of even trying to, is a criminal offence in their eyes.

Not going to see the movie. Heard it doesn't mention gamer "Vile Rat" who lost his life in that tragedy. Think I played against him in atleast 1 WOT match.
