YES THAT IS THE DEAD BODY OF A U.S. AMBASSADOR
AND OBAMA DOES NOTHING
I have no angle here but what should he do? What does he have the power to do?
"You run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole; you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole."
Nuke 'em...Bomb them back to the stone age.
Seriously, these bullshit protest killings in the Middle East aren't about some muslim film no one has seen.
These people don't have power, water, food, TV, computer or internet service, yet some how they are enraged
over some You Tube trailer about an anti-muslim movie that they didn't see.
governments send countless of thousands to their deaths in times of war, losing a few in times of "peace" must not even register
Obama's a pussy and has done horrible in his foreign policy. Do you think Truman,Roosevelt,Kennedy,Reagan or Eisenhower would put up with this shit? Anyone with a backbone would have demanded them to release the body for proper burial. If not, a nice stealth bomber strike.
As an ambassador, he was the official representative of the President of the United States to the head of state of Libya. Way to have his back Obama, way to let other people have free shots at other foreign dignitaries by having your thumb in your ass.
MAJOR
Those people do have all of them things.
Its not a new thing for Muslims to get murderously angry about their God getting slandered.
They kill many of their own for far less than what was in that film.
No excuse for murdering that innocent ambassador though.
But it's beginning to appear that it was Al Qaeda who was behind the actual killing of that man.
The people of the Middle East don't hate Americans. They just hate the policy's of the American Government's, past and present.

Obama sent the CIA in to help arrest the people responsible for the attacks. I understand that punishing the people actually responsible for an attack is a strange concept for some of you.
Obama's State Department had credible information two days before the consulate was attacked. They did nothing. So the question isn't what should Obama do but rather why did he do nothing when he knew the attack was imminent?
Revealed: inside story of US envoy's assassination
Exclusive: America 'was warned of embassy attack but did nothing'
The killings of the US ambassador to Libya and three of his staff were likely to have been the result of a serious and continuing security breach, The Independent can reveal.
...
According to senior diplomatic sources, the US State Department had credible information 48 hours before mobs charged the consulate in Benghazi, and the embassy in Cairo, that American missions may be targeted, but no warnings were given for diplomats to go on high alert and "lockdown", under which movement is severely restricted.

Al Qaeda, ex-Gitmo detainee involved in consulate attack, intelligence sources say

If we want to find these guys I guess we just need to talk to Bush and Cheney. The Republican's gave this guy to Qaddafi as long as he promised to keep him in jail. He didn't. Republicans -- soft on terror since 2001.
Also one of the reasons the attack may have happened was this:
"The consulate attack may have been inspired by an appeal by al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri to avenge the death of his second in command, Abu Yahya al-Libi, a Libyan who was killed in a drone attack in Pakistan in June."
So al-Qaeda seems to be getting tired of Obama's tactic of killing the terrorists instead of starting huge wars that kill hundreds of thousands of civilians, thousands of our troops, and turn whole countries against us. Not to mention billions of dollars wasted and boatloads of money to Cheney.

I love your posts. It has been 8 days. Bush caught Bin laden in a week.
After the most likely preventable 1983 barracks bombing in Beirut that killed 241 American servicemen Saint Reagan grabbed his guns and did ...NOTHING. NADA. I apologize. Reagan did give a nice speech saying he felt very sorry for the loses.
France who lost 58 troops that day conducted a bunch of their own airstrikes. Don't listen to the kooks like Rollo and Sixtoepete try and rewrite history like Fox News.
Obviously there are people that expect immediate action, I can't say I disagree but I understand why they aren't. Not to mention you have all these issues with Egypt and the whole fucking Iran/Israel situation. Having said that and full well knowing actions will be taken, I just hope they are extremely stern. Fuck, vicious and savage even, show these people that we will not stand for this kind of thing.
BTW - for the people saying welcome to WW3, I say welcome to the never ending crusades, as long as people believe in myths. Fuck you, fuck you all.

One of two things is going on in the thread:
#1 -- Far more people on this forum than I would have ever imagined (more than zero) receive the daily national security briefings
#2 -- a whole lot of people are talking out of their ass and have no clue what was known before the attack or what has transpired since

PFA members are not privy to national security briefings. President Obama of course is. However, these important briefings (President Bush attended almost 100% of them) are not high on Obama's agenda (unlike fundraisers with Beyonce and Jay-Z and meeting with a pirate and David Letterman instead of Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu).
Obama has missed more than half of his national security briefings.
Even the Washington Post asked...
Why is Obama skipping more than half of his daily intelligence meetings?
If you only watch NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN and MSNBC and read the NYT, Boston Globe and other biased liberal rags then I can forgive you for having 'no clue' about Obama's failed foreign policy.
However, many PFA members are well informed by reading the Drudge Report, Wall Street Journal, the American Spectator, National Review, New York Post, Boston Herald, TownHall, Daily Caller, Breitbart and watching FOX NEWS CHANNEL.
So having a right-wing slant is ok, but having a left-wing slant makes one stupid; interesting. You should do what i do: when the RNC is on I watch MSNBC; when thed DNC is on I watch FOX. Other than that I only read articles linked to by people I trust as rational thinkers: some are Liberals, some are Conservatives, and some are firebrand Libertarians... linking to an editorial as facts won't get you on that list by the way. Also, the Boston Herald is about as bad as Salon.com, it's like listening to the people in line at a methadone clinic.
