An American has been killed and at least one other wounded after militiamen stormed the US consulate in the Libyan city of Benghazi, officials say.

It is believed the protest was held over a US-produced film that is said to be insulting to the Prophet Muhammad.

The building was set on fire after armed men raided the compound with grenades.

Protests have also been held at the US embassy in the Egyptian capital, Cairo.

In the attack in Benghazi, unidentified armed men stormed the grounds, shooting at buildings and throwing handmade bombs into the compound.

Security forces returned fire but Libyan officials say they were overwhelmed....

Great. Obama's state department is apologizing while Americans die.

If we had a real president that black box in Mecca would be a little blacker.

And let’s not forget that it’s Hillary’s State Department, too. She’s just as cozy with our enemies as he is.

Enough. Leave Afghanistan, Iraq etc. let them all kill each other

MEMO TO PRESIDENT OBAMA: Time to resign before you have to face impeachment charges AND before angry voters defeat you in the election.

Go live in Hawaii while we will still give you free airplane rides.

Yep. Americans are being killed and wounded in what can only be called a terrorist attack and he criticizes Americans for using free speech.

My wife and I are sitting on pins and needles tonight... Our son is a Inf Platoon Leader in the area (can't say where).
His unit is assigned to a rapid reaction force whose mission is to air assault into a embassy,secure it and effect the evacuation of the non combatants ,by any means necessary. It's not just the Marines anymore.....
Keep him in your prayers

Prayers for your son and for all innocent Americans throughout the Arab world who are under threat from Muslim terrorists encouraged by the Muslim in the White House.
