This wasn't four guys with handguns. This was over 100 men with heavy machine guns mounted on trucks. Outside of Iraq and Afghanistan, can you name a US embassy that can stand up to this kind of an attack?
This is a fucking witch hunt, nothing more, nothing less. |
They are covering up what actually happened. Why is it so hard to understand that these politicians need to be held accountable for their actions? Why is it a which hunt to try and hold them accountable?
Why do you think 100-150 militants attacked this small little embassy? Especially militants we armed? That's the real problem here. They are covering up the fact that we armed these militants and they were pissed at this particular base of operations actions of meddling in their affairs. IE. one of the dead soldiers stated publicly he was there tracking the weapons we armed them with.

See above.. It wasn't a terrorist attack. It was blowback.
