Libyan Embassy Attack

This:

The Obama administration is sticking to its position that Tuesday's deadly attack in Benghazi wasn't premeditated, contradicting U.S. lawmakers and Libya's own president.

Yeah. Read that the first time. Repetition isn't providing clarification. So again, fell for what... exactly?

Did you "fall" for the Obama's account of the incident? Or Libya's? Which account did you "fall for"?

Thirteen killed in Pakistan protests against anti-Islam film

Thirteen people died in riots across Pakistan when thousands of protesters used a national holiday to stage demonstrations against a film denigrating the Prophet Mohammed.

Nine people were killed in Karachi, including a police officer who was shot, as demonstrations provided cover for arsonists and looters who attacked shops and restaurants.
A protester and a driver with a TV news channel were killed by police gunfire in the north-western city of Peshawar, where four people died amid attacks on cinemas and government offices.
Pakistan said it summoned the most senior US diplomat in Islamabad to protest against a YouTube trailer for an anti-Islam film made by a small group of extremists in the United States.

Artie, please – please - step up immediately and do the right thing. The wisdom you are selfishly keeping hidden in the dark recesses of your huge intellect may be the only thing standing between peace in the Middle East and its complete and total implosion. You have the solution – you have said so yourself – so share it with the rest of the world so that we may have peace once and for all.

Meanwhile, the Middle East is in a state of chaos, and all the major players wait with bated breath for your solution.

I'd like to know what would be YOUR solution.

Waiting with bated breath.

Death toll rises in Pakistan video protests

[b]At least 17 reported killed as demonstrators clash with police, while nation holds "Love the Prophet Day" marches.

Hmmmm....Population of Pakistan 180 MILLION....minus 17 dead. In other words, .99999? did not choose to participate. Btw,What happened to that "Home field advantage" you were yapping about?

happy jack wrote:

There is no mass rioting in the U.S. because the would-be rioters do not have home-field advantage, and they know that they would get their miserable asses kicked for attempting such a thing. That should be obvious to normal people.

So, where is that solution of yours?
Is it hiding in the same undisclosed location as that of Harry Reid's Mitt-Romney-didn't-pay-income-tax-for-10-years source?

You really think Mittwit releasing those tax return summaries helps him? If you do,you're dumber than I thought. Guess what? It's just another turd in the punchbowl and by his own words it should disqualify him from being POTUS.

If Romney had taken all of the deductions available to him under the tax code, he would have paid closer to a 9 percent tax rate in 2011. In attempting to match up his tax rate with his prior statement, Romney is paying more in taxes — and by his very own standard — disqualifying himself from the presidency. It’s worth noting that under Romney’s tax plan, he would cut his own rates even further, and would have paid little to no taxes under Paul Ryan’s 2010 budget, which would have eliminated the capital gains tax.

In a bid to tamp down public rage over the anti-Islam film, the American embassy in Islamabad is spending $70,000 to air an ad on Pakistani television that features President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton denouncing the video.

Will Boy Barry spend $70,000 of the taxpayers’ money to denounce this other work of “art”?
Will wait and see.
Will not hold breath.
And has the NYPD pulled its riot gear out of mothballs in anticipation of mass Christian riots?

"Art"

Piss Christ Is Back in New York

Good news, "art" lovers: Piss Christ is back in the Big Apple.

The controversial Andres Serrano work is just a photo of a crucifix soaking in the "artist's" urine. Somehow, it's considered "art" and will be showcased at the Edward Tyler Nahem gallery starting Thursday.

Piss Christ first stirred up controversy in 1989 when former New York senator Al D'Amato took to the Senate to complain about the "piece of trash."

It's a "deplorable, despicable display of vulgarity," Senator Pothole said at the time.

If Jesus soaking in piss doesn't offend you, this might: Piss Christ received taxpayer funding from the National Endowment for the Arts.

So not only is Jesus soaking in piss, but also you paid for it.

Libyans storm militia building after giant protest in wake of attack on US consulate

Quote :

Hundreds of protesters stormed the compound of one of Libya’s strongest armed Islamic extremist groups Friday, evicting militiamen and setting fire to their building as the attack that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans sparked a public backlash against armed groups that run rampant in the country and defy the country’s new, post-Moammar Gadhafi leadership.

Armed men at the administrative center for the Ansar al-Shariah militia, suspected to have led the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. Benghazi consulate, first fired in the air to disperse the crowd, but eventually withdrew from the site with their weapons and vehicles after it was surrounded by waves of protesters shouting “No to militias.”

“I don’t want to see armed men wearing Afghani-style clothes stopping me in the street to give me orders, I only want to see people in uniform,” said Omar Mohammed, a university student who took part in the takeover, which protesters said was done in support of the army and police.

No deaths were reported in the incident, which came after tens of thousands marched in Benghazi in a rally against armed militias. A vehicle was also burned at the compound, which was taken over by Libyan security forces after its occupants fled.

For many Libyans, last week’s attack on the U.S. Consulate in the eastern city of Benghazi was the last straw with one of the biggest problems Libya has faced since Gadhafi’s ouster and death around a year ago — the multiple mini-armies that with their arsenals of machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades are stronger than the regular armed forces and police.

The militias, a legacy of the rag-tag popular forces that fought Gadhafi’s regime, tout themselves as protectors of Libya’s revolution, providing security where police cannot. But many say they act like gangs, detaining and intimidating rivals and carrying out killings. Militias made up of Islamic radicals are notorious for attacks on Muslims who don’t abide by their hardline ideology. Officials and witnesses say fighters from Ansar al-Shariah led the attack on the U.S. consulate.

Some 30,000 people filled a broad boulevard as they marched along a lake in central Benghazi on Friday to the gates of the headquarters of Ansar al-Shariah.

“No, no, to militias,” the crowd chanted, filling a broad boulevard. They carried banners and signs demanding that militias disband and that the government build up police to take their place in keeping security. “Benghazi is in a trap,” signs read. “Where is the army, where is the police?”

Other signs mourned the killing of U.S. Amb. Chris Stevens, reading, “The ambassador was Libya’s friend” and “Libya lost a friend.” Military helicopters and fighter jets flew overhead, and police mingled in the crowd, buoyed by the support of the protesters.

. . .

Residents of another main eastern city, Darna, have also begun to stand up against Ansar al-Shariah and other militias.

The anti-militia fervor in Darna is notable because the city, in the mountains along the Mediterranean coast north of Benghazi, has long had a reputation as a stronghold for Islamic extremists. During the Gadhafi era, it was the hotbed of a deadly Islamist insurgency against his regime. A significant number of the Libyan jihadists who travelled to Afghanistan and Iraq during recent wars came from Darna. During the revolt against him last year, Gadhafi’s regime warned that Darna would declare itself an Islamic Emirate and ally itself with al-Qaida.

But now, the residents are lashing out against Ansar al-Shariah, the main Islamic extremist group in the city.

“The killing of the ambassador blew up the situation. It was disastrous,” said Ayoub al-Shedwi, a young bearded Muslim preacher in Darna who says he has received multiple death threats because has spoken out against militias on a radio show he hosts. “We felt that the revolution is going in vain.”

Al-Shedwi said some were afraid that if they don’t act to rein them in, the U.S. will strike against the militias, pushing people to support the gunmen.

Just a cover.

Why do you think there is no rioting in the U.S.?

I know I've tried explaining it to you before... It has little to do with the religion and everything to do with the geopolitical reality they live in. There's no riots here because there's no reason to.

I have had enough experience with you to know that you were lying from the get-go.

What did I lie about,Einstein? The fact that I have no intention of getting into a useless hypothetical discussion with you and thus will not share my ideas does not constitute a lie.

I suggest you calm down,stop your tantrum,and move on.

Bingo! When Muammar Gaddafi was overthrown Libyans thought that their lives would be very different,much like the Iraqis did. Unfortunately it takes a considerable amount of time to set up a new government,put security in place, and agree on a Constitution. Heck,it took us 13 years from the end of the Revolutionary war before the US Constitution went into effect.

Meanwhile there are still a small number of Islamic extremists and fanatics in these places whose only desire is to promote unrest and sponsor terrorists. The right-wingers always focus on them,while conveniently ignoring the other .99999?% of Muslims who just want to live a peaceful life and have the same opportunities as other free people.

When Bin-Laden was killed one of the documents they found was that he was extremely disappointed that the US was focused on Al-Quaeda and not the Islamic religion as a whole. Neither George Bush nor Obama ever blamed the Islamic religion for 911. Bin-Laden clearly wanted a religious war,but never got one. Unfortunately in this country there are still too many people like Happy Jack and the Neocon far right that essentially play right into Bin-Laden's hands.

The very fact that you cannot even verbalize this imaginary solution of yours is proof enough that you are lying about having such a solution.
See my comment on Harry Reid in the 10.0 thread- same principle.
