I thought this was satire from the onion when I read this but it's true. Obama has demanded that the State Department apologize the the man who authorized the bombing of Pan Am 103. Again here is a man who has Usurped the Office of the Presidency showing submission to another dictator who hates the USA. Should the American People be outraged by this? You better believe it. This is another sign of a Neville Chamberlain appeasement attitude towards sympathizing with America's enemies. When are the American people going to get fed up and do something about this man in the oval office? Look at what the headlines read at some of these links. No wonder we are not respected since this man has been elected.

State Department Begs Forgiveness After Insulting Libya's Qaddafi
Libya forces US official into apology for Gaddafi joke | News
The Obama State Department apologized to Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi for offending the dear tyrant with offensive language. The BBC reported:
The US State Department has apologized for comments made about Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafis call for jihad, or holy war, against Switzerland.
Department spokesman PJ Crowley, who made the dismissive comments, said they did not reflect US policy and were not intended to offend.
Col Gaddafi had criticised a Swiss vote against the building of minarets and urged Muslims to boycott the country.
Last week, Libyas National Oil Corporation warned US oil firms of possible repercussions over Mr Crowleys reaction. The Libyan ambassador to the US sought to clarify Col Gaddafis remarks saying the Libyan leader meant an economic boycott not an armed attack.
I should have focused solely on our concern about the term jihad, which has since been clarified by the Libyan government, Mr Crowley added.
I understand my personal comments were perceived as a personal attack on the president, he said.

Libyan dictator Moamer Gaddafi warned the Swiss in December that their minaret ban invited attacks by Al-Qaeda on Europe. In September it was reported that the Obama Administration planned to give $400,000 in funding to a Libyan charity run by the Gadhafi family.
