Canada was evacuating personnel from sensitive embassies in the Muslim world just before the attacks.

Was this because they had specific intelligence or just on the general principle that Western outposts are at risk on Sept. 11?

Obama’s “Wag the Dog” moment has been a costly tragic failure. Clinton should have encouraged him to stick with sending scud missiles at aspirin factories.

Remember how the liberal press hooted at GWB over his “mission accomplished” statement?

Don/t bet on a similar criticism of obummer.

Maybe we should rename him obungler.

Obungler.

I don’t know. But they did not do it prior to any other 9/11 anniversary, so draw your own conclusions.

Islamics have a fascination with numbers.

Perhaps the fact that this was the 11th year of the 11th means something to them.

They just might. For now I find the hypocrisy of The Won administration disgusting. They want us to believe a Youtube video is responsible for all the rioting, in spite of several intel reports of trouble coming that came out before the video was seen, in spite of rioters chanting "0bama we are all Osama!," and yet this 'spike the ball' Hollyweird production that the WH helped make is coming out during the holidays.

0ahu snackbar!!!

When Bush once said “Bring it On”, the media was non-stop in claiming he invited attacks for YEARS.

But when this administration brags about killing Osama Bin Laden, not ONE newspaper even WONDERS if there could be a connection between that bragging and attacks by Al Qaeda against our embassies.

Instead, they all assume that it is perfectly natural that some obscure you-tube video, that received no press, caused an intricate armed assault on multiple targets. And that Obama couldn’t have had any idea it was coming.

Isn’t that odd — we are supposed to believe two contradictory things at the same time: first, that it is obvious that the you-tube video would cause our ambassador to be killed, but second that the Administration couldn’t possibly have been expected to know that and take actions to protect our embassies.

Which is it? Obvious provocation that we should have known about and protected against, or a well-planned and concealed attack which shows this administration is clueless about the state of the world?

Oh wait, the media chooses option 3: It’s all Romney’s fault.

Actually, the media is so in the tank for Obama, that I expect to see a headline news story that this is all Romney’s fault, for running against Obama.

After all, if Obama didn’t have a challenger for re-election, he wouldn’t have to spend all this time raising money and campaigning, and he’d be able to take the time necessary to run the country. SO it’s all Romney’s fault for making Obama campaign.

I was referring to the actions by Canadian diplomatic personnel, but your point is well taken. The larger point, of course, is the abject failure of feeding the crocodile.

——Though no one in Washington is allowed to say the phrase “war on terror” anymore, it appears that Islamists have no trouble in continuing their war on America.-——

This administration is so disconnected from reality it’s frightening....

They actually thought that using semantics they could change the hearts and minds of jihadists....
