wolfie Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 Seems the ambassador to Libya and three other Americans have been murdered because of the release of some online film ridiculing Muslims. Murdered by the same people who the Americans and British helped to put in power. Some thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 It's now being suggested that it was a planned attack; using "the film" as an excuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Pastor Terry Jones kicked this one off by burning Qurans in Florida. The Quran - burning spree began in 2010. He vowed to burn 200 on the 10th anniversary of 9/11, before reducing the book-toll to one. Jones's anti-Islamic flame sparked 20 deaths. Back in April 2012 with a burning vengeance that cost him a fire department fine, he is reported to have said he might yet burn again. It's about time the US started sorting their own out before dashing around the globe trying to sort others out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleopatra Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 I'm only going on the reports I have read, but I suppose the reports could be wrong. Libya embassy violence was a 'planned terrorist attack' The film was initially blamed for both the Cairo protest and the attack in Libya. But Senator John Kerry, the chairman of the foreign relations committee who was briefed by administration officials, said that the Libya attack appeared to be premeditated. ''The evidence was that [the Libya] attack was very well planned and very well structured,'' he said. ''This was not a mob.'' But exactly who it was, or whether the attack was linked to the anniversary of the September 11 attacks, remained unknown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 It appears there is a wide gulf between the Western concept of freedom of expression and an intolerance to disrespect or criticism exibited by some religions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fugtifino Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 beaky, give it a rest. I'm intrigued as to how any interested collective can feel aggrieved against a whole nation because one of their citizens posted something on youtube. Then again, I suppose extremists don't really do diplomacy. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 I am wondering whether or not it is some sort of ploy by the arms manufacturers to keep the conflict on the boil so they can make few more bob selling their wares. ( quick check for signs of suspicious activity in the area by way of black suv's with blacked out windows or men in trench coats and hats with bits of curly wire hanging from one ear, all clear phew) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Some people are easily upset, poke em with a stick and they react but who’s to blame? To my way of thinking, people who deliberately set out to provoke or incite violence should be held responsible for the predictable outcome and in this case held responsible for the deaths. Bill BTW Fug I gave you the red mark there for incitement on the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie Posted September 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Reports wrong? Sounds familiar The subtle hints are lost on some people Eagle As for fugs, if that was incitement, some on here should be banned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
