Obama White House Press Secretary,"Protests not directed at the United States."

reply to post by ThirdEyeofHorus


Protests are normal. Violence is not. Storming embassies are only the weakness of the guards involved, and NOT EVERY embassy in the arab world was stormed.

Killing too is not normal, nor does it means an act of war by the host nation. Let the RULE OF LAW takes place - investigations, before judgement is made. It happened in one embassy, but does not necessarily mean every embassy will see murder happening.

One death may be too many, but jumping into conclusions will bring many more deaths, more so in manipulated events such as happening today.,

Protests by the masses after Friday prayers at the mosques, but often not well attended after Fridays. It is during such opportunites that manipulators dare strike, to put blame upon the naive masses and get the heat for it while the manipulators run free.

This issue is NOT for political grandstanding. Lay off. Precious lives worldwide are far too involved with far reaching repercussions are at stake which is FAR too serious for the sake of the vote of a president for Jan 2013. Responsibility and actions of an immediate Presiding Head of State that goes beyond mere political guesture is critical at the moment.

Seriously?

They really expect the American people to swallow that line of bull when U.S. Embassies in 4 countries have been attacked?

They must think we are blind, deaf and dumb.

Reminds me of the time I was watching live news when Iraq was being attacked. I forget his name, but some guy high up, or was he their press secretary? I cannot remember, said that Iraq was winning and to have nothing to fear because they would beat all the Americans and Brittish troops.
Over his back less than a mile away you could see the American tanks bearing down on him! Crazy.....

It's amateur hour at the White House....

Make that amateur last 4 years....

Er, Jay, this statement is almost as bad as Romney's.

When they're chanting "Death To America" who else is this directed at then if not towards the United States?

It seems clear that the video 'protests' were nothing more than an opportunistic diversion. How obtuse do they think we are?

So when will the apology happen, for this gaff?

That is the "norm", for this Administration.......

reply to post by sonnny1


The American public getting an apology for having the most ignorant,corrupt, inept adminstration is Us history?

Never see that happening after all Libya was silent for near 30 years and all in the name of Humanity the amateur Potus is directly responsible for those deaths in libya, and those 4 Americans who would be alive had not the current potus shot first and thought later.

Perhaps Jay Carney could explain that to the dead American diplomat?

Is Jay Carney really that stupid or does he just think that everyone else is?

Remember "Bagdahd bob"??
There are No American forces in Bagdahd!(Abrahms tank rumbles by in the background)..

Surely this is their final insult to our intelligence. How can anyone ever take the White House seriously again after that?

The logical progression from here would be to simply come out on that little podium and tell us all to Go #*$% Ourselves.As if we already haven't.

The above notwithstanding, I am rendered speechless

Doesn't look anything like Obama...........

Now where have I seen a more delusional press secretary......Let me think>>>>>>



Guess I should have read whole thread before protesting

Here's what I think of Obama and his statement today.



Is he serious? That's why only AMERICAN embassies are being attacked right? Clearly these rioters (they aren't protesters, they are rioters) look for any and every excuse to blame America. All this over a movie?
As I recall it wasn't to long ago that the Arab Spring happened and most of these same countries asked for Western intervention.

I'm starting to seriously lean to the side that thinks these people like and enjoy violence. Perhaps it's just a minority that enjoys violence but damn, sure seems like a majority.

I been keeping up with the news and a quote that was just read on it from one of those radical islamic extremists, saber rattling and saying how they had 1.5 billion Bin ladens.

News also showed this map today:

maps.google.com...

The world has gone stupid what we are all witnessing is Islam and their 1000 year old dark ages that is just sad.

This is not a case of protests directed at the United States writ large or at U.S. policy, this is in response to a video that is offensive to Muslims."

That is the same line Hillary used at Andrews today, at the ceremony for the 4 Americans murdered by the Libyans. I almost choked on my coffee when I heard her say that. Nobody in their mind believes that hogwash. This administration is so delusional, that they REALLY believe that they can shovel sh*** and the MSM will feed it to the public. Of course, the MSM will, but very few people believe them anymore.

True words! Dead on; no pun intended.

There are fanatical people worldwide and those fanatics are not limited to any single religious, geopolitical, and/or socioeconomic group. Crazy, psychopathic, agenda driven events regularly occur worldwide; and that craziness is a crime not a declaration of war; unless directly, factually and intentionally driven by the governing body of a sovereign nation.

In any society, the majority of the population does not follow the "psychopath's" agenda; rather, they are just trying to earn a living...just like you and I. Are they apathetic? Perhaps. Are we apathetic? Perhaps. Is apathy a crime? No. To believe otherwise is to buy into the ridiculous notion that "you are either with us or against us". If you are buying into such notions, then you are not being apathetic nor are you being a patriot; you are a part of the problem.

Much the same, there are jerks in every community in every society; worldwide. When those psychopaths take an opportunity to cause harm to others, and they do; that is a crime (in every sense of the definition). yet, their actions are not an act of war.

Declaring wars on such individuals and/or groups out of vengeance, rather than pursue them as criminals, has put the United States in the position we are today. Some folks, especially uneducated, bigoted, reactionary, opportunistic and/or religiously fueled politicians/citizenry are the problem in America....they want a war on anything that disagrees with anything that does not suit them....don't like drugs..BAM...war on drugs...Don't like the current President...BAM...a war on America..ect. The "war" on terrorism is no different.

There are "terrorists" in every country on Earth...it's an ideology....you can not declare war on an ideology, a symbol, a cause, an action of non-governing individuals; nor any other inanimate object. To act as if you can control or crush such things is an exercise in ignorance and futility.

....Speaking of deficit, dating back to 1980 (at a minimum), how much have these un-winnable "wars" cost American citizens? Is it not due time to stand up to those that so freely spend OUR money? Should we not, instead, tell OUR governing body to do what is right and focus on US; not THEM..."THEM" being enemies; both foreign and domestic.

Dizzy City badly needs a reality check... they've totally lost it...
