Another LOLberal deflection from the topic. Do you ever manage to stay on task, Shallow?
the thread is clearly about defending the scandal. Clearly.
That's not what this thread is about.
As part of the Senate conclusions:
And it seems that the annex may have been holding prisoners, which was one of the reasons for the attack.
Given that Libya's government was overthrown by both France and the United States and given that these militants were still involved in fighting off what they perceived as invaders.
Is an attack on a foreign spy headquarters an "Act of Terror"?
Or is it now legitimate for any country to keep spies in diplomatic consulates?
All attacks are terrifying. The Benghazi attack was an act of terrorism by terrorist.
So it's "terrorism" to fight foreign hostiles in your country?
Lets be clear about this.
That's not what this thread is about.
The burning question is what is this thread about
So it's "terrorism" to fight foreign hostiles in your country?
Lets be clear about this.
Not "terrorism", but I imagine terrifying. At least for the foreign hostiles.
Terrorism is the unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons.
terrorism
Okay.
So is war terrorism now?
Regardless, the deaths were preventable. The president and his cronies lied about the cause, and LOLberals continue to try and deflect the scandal away and into something else. Such as the OP has done here.
Of course they were "preventable".
Most deaths are "preventable". Like if President George W. Bush never launched an invasion of Iraq based on the lies he told Congress and the American people, 4000 American Military and 100K civilian Iraqis would be enjoying their lives and families.

The OP is mine.
The Topic is "Was the Benghazi Attack an Act of Terror".
Given:
-The consulate was housing a CIA outpost.
-The consulate may have had captured militants.
-Geneva affords no protections to spies.
-No international protocol allows for spies.
Was it?
It's a pretty simple question.
All attacks are terrifying. The Benghazi attack was an act of terrorism by terrorist.

Lets be clear about this.
Let's see, WHO is in the White House? What's the guy's name who is in charge?
If you give Obama credit for the positives, you must hold him responsible for the negatives.
In any event ,this is another lib troll deflection thread.
It'll end up in badlands or some other forum for which no one cares.
Nice try though.
Jesus Christ....Next thing we will read from one of you deep thinkers is the people within the confines of the Consulate were "enemy combatants"..
Hey shit for brains, Libya is a terrorist rogue country which is subject to violent regime change from within on a daily basis. You needn't wring your hands anymore.
Of course any attempt to convince one of you Northeastern Blue state elitists that you are wrong is futile. You know because you know.
Guess what. There is a large difference between believing and knowing.
You believe. You believe because you made a poor choice in voting for Obama. And because you lib elitists cannot ever admit you made a poor choice, you convince yourselves you are correct 100% of the time.
I wanted to slap you around a little before I unsub from this vapid thread.
Stow it.
Muammar Muhammad Abu Minyar al-Gaddafi[6] (Arabic: معمر محمد أبو منيار القذافي* /ˈmoʊ.əmɑr ɡəˈdɑːfi/ About this sound audio (help·info)) (c. 1942 20 October 2011), commonly known as Colonel Gaddafi,[nb 2] was a Libyan revolutionary and politician, and the de facto ruler of Libya for 42 years. Taking power in a 1969 coup d'etat, he ruled as Revolutionary Chairman of the Libyan Arab Republic from 1969 to 1977 and then as the "Brother Leader" of the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya from 1977 to 2011, when he was ousted in the Libyan civil war. After beginning as an Arab nationalist and Arab socialist, he later governed the country according to his own ideology, the Third International Theory. He eventually embraced Pan-Africanism, and served as Chairperson of the African Union from 2009 to 2010.

Spies? Who were the spies and what evidence do you have?
The bipartisan report laid out more than a dozen findings regarding the assaults on a diplomatic compound and a CIA annex in the city. It said the State Department failed to increase security at its mission despite warnings, and blamed intelligence agencies for not sharing information about the existence of the CIA outpost with the U.S. military.
Senate report: Attacks on U.S. compounds in Benghazi could have been prevented - The Washington Post
The CIA has three traditional principal activities, which are gathering information about foreign governments, corporations, and individuals; analyzing that information, along with intelligence gathered by other U.S. intelligence agencies, in order to provide national security intelligence assessment to senior United States policymakers; and, upon the request of the President of the United States, carrying out or overseeing covert activities and some tactical operations by its own employees, by members of the U.S. military, or by other partners.[11][12][13][14][15] It can, for example, exert foreign political influence through its tactical divisions, such as the Special Activities Division.[16]

Espionage or spying involves a government or individual obtaining information considered secret or confidential without the permission of the holder of the information.[1] Espionage is inherently clandestine, as it is taken for granted that it is unwelcome and, in many cases illegal and punishable by law. It is a subset of intelligence gathering, which otherwise may be conducted from public sources and using perfectly legal and ethical means. It is crucial to distinguish espionage from intelligence gathering, as the latter does not necessarily involve espionage, but often collates open-source information.

Bush had congressional approval to go to war. And it was a Democratic controlled congress that gave him the authority.
Facts are a bitch huh?
Any act attacking people that places them in fear of death is an act of terror
But the question should be was the attack on the Benghazi Consulate a coordinated "terrorist attack" I say it was.
Of course they were "preventable".

So spies are okay?
