He was never tortured, he was not dragged through a mob, he was dragged out of his safe house and taken to the hospital. The Right passes that off as "torture" which they established first with their fake photos.No, the fact that the Right has to exaggerate what happened shows that even the Right knows there is no there, there without embellishment.
The Right cut funding for security and have to blame everyone else for their decisions. Nobody cares about Sunday show talking points!!! Sunday show talking points did not lead to the death of 4 Americans, funding cuts did.
And I said the pix was removed from the TEXT that describes the video, not the video itself, and the fact remains the pix was placed there by the Tea Bag Brotherhood, not a "Leftist zealot."
I see NO exaggeration between the WRONG pictures and the RIGHT pictures of him being tortured and killed. The RIGHT pictures show him being dragged thru a mob and some have even highlighted the barrel of an AK47 being pointed at his chin. PLENTY of raw emotion available in the RIGHT pictures. . I think the 2 of you are under the impression that he died peacefully..
No sir.. This "fake pic" is STILL USED on the YouTube vid link you supplied as a "Title Still".
And it NEVER APPEARS in the actual video of Fox News coverage.. I watched for it TWICE and Fox news NEVER USED IT in that Youtube vid..

Video purportedly shows Libyans rushing to aid U.S. ambassador - CNN.com
Benghazi, Libya (CNN) -- The chaos is palpable, as a throng of Libyans frantically scramble outside a damaged building. Suddenly, a man's body is carried from inside toward an open window -- and the frenzy and sounds become even more urgent, more emotional.
"Get him out!" some yell.
After joyfully discovering the man -- a foreigner, apparently, a voice in the crowd says -- is alive after he's dragged out, fresh screams ring out.
"Allahu Akbar," which translates from Arabic to "God is great," men in the crowd shout. Others raise fists to the sky, seemingly rejoicing that this man has somehow survived.
According to the man who shot the video, the wounded man shown is Chris Stevens, the late U.S. ambassador to Libya.
snopes.com: American Ambassador in Libya Raped and Killed
U.S. news accounts reported that Ambassador Stevens was not raped and killed by members of that mob, as claimed above: he was alive when brought to a hospital, he bore no external injuries, and he died of smoke inhalation from the fire started in the attack on the consulate:
Thank you for your excellent research.
All we can do is keep repeating the facts and calling out the lies - like that photo.
