One more 9-11 to remember

Infidel Bloggers

Alana Goodman;  A Problem With State Department Security?   "How did a suicide bomber find out where the American consulate vehicle would be at the time? Was he tipped off by security — the same way a mob of violent fanatics reportedly discovered the location of the U.S. ambassador to Libya?
"Either these are just unfortunate coincidences of timing, or they point to a more fundamental problem with State Department security. The department is entrusted to keep American officials safe abroad, and the past two weeks do not engender confidence."

10 Photos From The Destroyed U.S. Consulate In Libya  Will Rosie O'Donnell call this a US government plot?

"The Offensive, Laughably Bad Movie That Led To Four People Dying"  Of course, 9-11 had absolutely nothing to do with it. Were these the same guys that we supported in their fight against Qaddafi?

Dead Ambassador dragged through streets, MSM furious at Romney criticism of Obama   "If there ever were a doubt, no matter how small, that the mainstream media is deeply in bed with the Obama campaign, the reaction to the killing of the U.S. Ambassador to Libya and several other Americans should put such doubt to rest.

"Beginning early this morning, when news was just breaking, the left-blogosphere and mainstream media, led by MSNBC, has attempted to shift the focus from the Obama administration’s failure to protect our embassies and for its apologies (both before and after the attack on the Cairo Embassy) to whether Mitt Romney was wrong to criticize Obama last night."

The left-wing blog, Memeorandum quotes NBC's statement: "Romney issues over-the-top attack on embassy attacks."  Naturally, NBC used this photo of Romney, at left:

Newsbusters has this take.

[South Carolina Sen. Lindsey] Graham: Obama’s lack of leadership leading to ‘explosion in the Middle East’

" “It’s about to explode,” Graham reiterated. “The American disengagement, lack of leadership, and leading from behind is leading to uncertainty and doubt on all fronts. ... There is no substitute for leadership by the United States and every group within the region is uncertain about who we are and what we believe.” "

Romney Rips into Obama Response to U.S. Embassy Attack in Cairo

"Romney’s statement was in response to Cairo, not the murders of the four Americans. Romney said the administration’s response from the Cairo Embassy appeared to sympathize with attackers and it sent “mixed signals to the world.”

“It’s disgraceful that the Obama administration’s first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks,” Romney said.

"Romney is absolutely correct."  (Emphases in the original.)

Jonathan S. Tobin; Has Romney Erred on Obama Criticism?  "The willingness of Secretary of State Clinton to condemn a foolish independent film critical of Islam that is supposedly the reason why Americans are being attacked, before speaking of the outrage against U.S. facilities and personnel, was similarly ill-considered and deserved Romney’s riposte. While the president’s statement today was better, Romney still needs to point out that the administration’s desire to appease and conciliate the Muslim Brotherhood government of Egypt while refusing to meet the prime minister of Israel or to set red lines on Iran is the product of a mindset that has ill served America’s best interests."

Hot Air: Ambassador Chris Stevens hoped for ‘free, democratic, prosperous Libya.’

"Stevens’ reports back to the US government are believed to have encouraged the American support of the rebel council, formally carried out in July 2011 by Obama administration."

Rest in Peace, Mr. Ambassador.

U.S. EMBASSY: PROTECT 'FEELINGS' OF MUSLIMS   

"The U.S. embassy redefines and limits freedom of speech to that speech which others, and, explicitly Muslims, do not find offensive: The embassy asserts that to “hurt the religious beliefs of others” is to “abuse the universal right of free speech.” "
