Obambo GOT HIM!!! Woot! Just think! Another National Geographic propaganda film based on a true story from the files of Barack Hussein Obama! I can’t wait. Hell, I’ll be so busy watching Obambo movies that I might forget to go vote! This is great! Of course, this clown probably wasn’t even in the area of Benghazi during the Al Qeada raid but what the heck! It’s something for Americans to be happy about!

Color me skeptical. I suppose Hussein flew over there, tracked him down, and personally took care of him!

This whole story seems a little too neat.

He was ‘described as a terrorist.’? How would you describe this man? “Well, I would describe him as a terrorist”

“Police reportedly seized bombs, rocket-propelled grenades and ammunition from the scene.” Wow. Perfect. He must have smuggled them from Cairo to Benghazi in his man purse, and these were the left-overs he brought back.

“The reports could not be independently confirmed, and there were conflicting reports over the incident.” Shocking.

I’d be willing to bet 60% this didn’t take place. It’s an entirely bare bones sketch, where every skeletal fact builds the narrative that we got some revenge on a caricature of a terrorist. I don’t buy it. Sounds like Nigel Tufnel Axelrod scribbled it out on a napkin at the IHOP in Chicago.

The stonehenge terrorist was probably 6 inches tall.

Obviously an Egyptian stock broker.

Nothing to see here. Move along!

LATimes, didn't you get the memo? Obama gets the credit for this! Not some Egyptian policeman!

“killed in a shootout with police in Cairo” ...yes, um...and ah...that’s where there were protests about a movie.

It was about a vile movie, Version 4.03.01.

“Hazem”....(the terrorist)

Was this the guy the Adm identified as the only suspect so far. They knew he wasn’t a leader, but the Adm weren’t allowed to go in to interrogate him?

A name had been mentioned, but I can’t find my source for the above.

[PS & btw: I’m not thinking of the strawberry frappe man who was interviewed by a reporter.]

ROFL Histerical post............

I knew this thread would not fail me, FUNNY STUFF. Think I will hang around for awhile.

did they really say they described him??? Well, he had black hair, black beard, brown eyes (what we could see of them), he had a towel around his head, dark skinned. Yep that's how we recognized him.

Oh Yeah, he was saying something about Greetings from Obama. So of course we had to take him out. Loose lips and all........

My gut tells me he is not dead but is being covered for by Obama’s Muslim Brotherhood. OMG 2 more weeks. I will shout to the heavens and mountain tops if this traitor is removed Nov 6th.

I don’t think so. The one that was mentioned by zero administration is being held in Tunisia after being ‘captured’ in Turkey. We still have not interviewed him according to reports.
