Terrorist attack U.S. Embassies in Egypt and Libya |
Say what you will... but the "one" characteristic that is tantamount to the American people's trust in its government is the confidence we place in our leaders that they will NOT lie to us! Unfortunately, that confidence has been destroyed as a result of the recent Benghazi-gate.
On September 11, 2012 the U.S. properties in Libya were compromised, attacked and four Americans killed. One of those who was savagely murdered was U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens, who––according to the Lebanese news organization Tayyar.org, ––was killed by the gunmen that stormed the U.S. consulate in Benghazi and was reportedly brutally raped before being murdered and dragged through the streets of Benghazi.
The conflicting stories that have come from President Obama's administration since these events unfolded reflect a "Nixonian" air... or a possible cover-up being perpetrated on the American people.
For instance, who are we supposed to believe when at the recent UN conference the president of Libya, Mohammed Magarief said:
"the deadly assault on a U.S. consulate was a 'pre-planned act of terrorism."
But... at the same UN conference, our President, in explaining the atrocities which occurred on 9/11/2012, was still blaming the killings on a video:
"There are no words that excuse the killing of innocents. There is no video that justifies an attack on an embassy". President Barack Obama Sept. 25, 2012 http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/decision2012/obama-to-tell-un-us-will-always-stand-up-for-freedom-around-the-world/2012/09/25/4a89fba8-0706-11e2-afff-d6c7f20a83bf_story.html
Others in his administration, including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and even Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, have come out to debunk the President's claim that this act was an Islam mob-riot-gone-amuck!
So what was the reason for the 12-days of confusion, misrepresentation of the facts, lies and misleading the American people relative to this brazen act?
Just tell the truth! Because the two starkly different stories emanating from the White House only makes the President look shady... and is causing irreparable damage to the 'trust and confidence' factor of Barack Obama.
Democrats and Republicans... put all politics aside and let's get some answers!!
And, main stream media persons... do your jobs already! It's time for our President to stand before the American people–– not sitting on the couch on The View or David Letterman–– and come clean on what happened. We need to know what he and his team knew... and when he knew it.
Obama's reputation is at stake and his credibility is on the line until he does!
