TRIPOLI, Libya -
Libyan officials say the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans have been killed in an attack on the U.S. consulate in the eastern city of Benghazi by protesters angry over a film that ridiculed Islam's Prophet Muhammad.
The officials say Ambassador Chris Stevens was killed Tuesday night when he and a group of embassy employees went to the consulate to try to evacuate staff. The protesters were firing gunshots and rocket propelled grenades.
All of the officials — three in all — hold senior security positions in Benghazi. They are deputy interior minister for eastern Libya Wanis al-Sharaf; Benghazi security chief Abdel-Basit Haroun; and Benghazi city council and security official Ahmed Bousinia

"The protesters were firing gunshots and rocket propelled grenades."
I think at that point they are no longer "protesters"

This is not good, not good at all. RIP and condolences to the families.
Americans will be looking for retribution, it will be interesting to see what Obama's move is.
Full Scale war? not likely, I feel the term "measured response" being used in the next few days..

Uh, Its election season, Obama denounced the attack while apologizing. That is all that's gonna happen.

Romney is doing a speech as we speak and tearing Obama apart for his weak response ....
This is just outrages, I have a feeling Romney’s speech and the outrage of virtually everyone on both political sides is going to persuade Obama to do something tangible… or risk looking utterly weak and impotent in comparison to Romney, which is certainly possible considering how the Democrats have been in recent years...

Or maybe he's apologizing for your embarassing comments about this matter! Do you remember Atrox how shameful you were ridiculed the topic? The nonexistent threat of Al-Aqeda influence in Libya...do you remember?

Btw, this is just the last attack in the last few months in Benghazi. The others were:
- Benghazi June 11, 2012, attack at the British consulate, 2 WIAs
- Benghazi May 22, 2012, RPG attack vs the Red Cross building, one wounded
- Benghazi June 6, 2012, a bomb exploded outside the U.S. diplomatic mission

Okay, I know you're Russian, which automatically denotes your stupidity, but let me give you a hint: The Russian insult in my post was meant for you, Ivan.
A little slow, are we? Is it 9 A.M. yet?

btw this thread isn't the right place for u two to battle it out, so relax.
anyways its pretty disgusting how this happened, even worse is hearing we sent some Marines in there to track em down.. enough American lives have been lost at this point we don't need to endanger anymore when we could use satelites & drones to track down these targets

Attrox knows how Obama thinks: Always try to portray yourself as a victim or apologize.Those are the tenets of Obama's "Soft power".The Whitehouse is now a testosterone free zone with Hillary Clinton wearing the pants. Didn't Obama say "The Day I'm Inaugurated Muslim Hostility Will Ease"?.Obama is naive and gutless. Remember, Obama is a mediocre product of affirmative action. He needs to go.
