1 Dead in Pakistan Consulate Attack

[saxitoxin]

Thousands of Egyptian youth, angry at the wars of Barack Obama, captured Embassy Cairo this afternoon, overcoming Obama's guards who opened fire at the unarmed demonstrators, gunning down an unknown number. The pro-democracy demonstrators ripped down the U.S. flag, then burned Obama in effigy. The embassy itself was then burned down. Learning of the approach of the pro-democracy demonstrators, Obama's diplomats fled the facility in a fleet of armored limousines before they arrived.

Obama's State Department issued a press release that said protestors were expressing their criticism over an unnamed movie that got poor reviews, however, non-US news reports said few protestors were even aware of the unnamed film.

According to Obama for America press releases, Obama has improved the worldwide reputation of the United States since seizing power in 2008.

He typed "gunning down an unknown number." That number could be zero. Just saying.

Post on the US Embassy Facebook page, the Coalition of Arab Unity of Youth claim the storming of Embassy Cairo was in response to grave provocations and offenses occurring at the Democrat National Convention and directed against the pro-democratic youth of the Arab world (specifically the Jerusalem incident) ...

The coalition members protesting formally to both:
1.The sovereignty of the U.S. Ambassador in Cairo.
2. American Parliament (Congress).
On Obama's last remarks about acknowledging that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, and we find that these statements are provocative and completely untrue, and he has taken advantage and invested an opportunity to speak out for gains at the expense of his rivals in the presidential elections, and this is a lie and is misleading the world and the American people, and with the American Nation him choosing him as the president of the United States of America, they have lost relationships with the Arabs.
We hope the American people choose wisely for whoever person they choose their president, and investigate the truth and not a lie. The remarks Obama made are a ploy to counterfeit and deceit in the proceedings of fixed and truthful facts of geography and history, which affirm the right of the Arabs and Palestinians in Jerusalem. No matter what happens, Jerusalem is, and always will belong to the Palestinians.

Yours sincerely,
Members of the Coalition Unity Arab Youth

Thirty minutes ago, the US Consulate-General in Benghazi, Libya was overrun by a NTC government militia Obama ran guns to last year. Unfortunately one person lost their life and several were wounded.

In the space of one day, two U.S. diplomatic facilities have been stormed and captured when - in the preceding 30 years - only one compound capitulated. It seems likely more facilities will fall in the coming days.

Apparently the only photo yet available after protestors breached the perimeter wall of Consulate-General Benghazi with (US-made) rocket propelled grenades.

US goes places for Israel. Israel doesn't go places for US.

You don't think Israel is going to attack anyone? Just reading through your thread, I'm getting a thrill up my leg that something is going down, perhaps enemies of Israel are acting pre-emptively here? Or else what is the bigger picture if there is one? What city/country would you guess/predict this will spread to after Libya?

So far, it seems these actions are only in countries that the US had a hand in.....

Egyptian-Iranian intelligence meeting prompts fears of a new Middle East terror axis

U.S. intelligence agencies recently monitored a secret meeting between Egypt’s intelligence chief and a senior Iranian spy that is raising new fears the Muslim Brotherhood government in Cairo could begin covertly supporting global terrorism.

This was the scene in 2009 after mass protests broke-out in Tripoli against Switzerland. The government of the Arab Socialist Libyan Jamahriyah took seriously their obligations to the Geneva Convention and defense of diplomatic facilities and surrounded the Swiss legation with hundreds of police, 20 rows deep for days. Now, after the NATO backed assassination of Col. Qaddaffi, only rudderless chaos reigns in the "Libyan Republic" - a modern banana republic.
