Why does the right insist Obama did not call it a terror attack?

[OohPooPahDoo]

I haven't heard him call it an act of terror yet.

President Obama Speaks on the Attack on Benghazi - YouTube

It was a speech regarding the protest that were going on not just Libya.

There was no psecific mention of Benghazi being an act of terrorism.

Nice try..... but you failed.

OMG, you're a complete fucking moron. The entire speech is about the attack. You really are this stupid, aren't you?

 

[WillowTree]

That's because you're an idiot.

Actually it's because I haven't heard him say it was a terrorist attack.

I understand how things like facts escape you.

The only reason you haven't heard him call it that is because you're incapable of rubbing enough neurons together to click the following link:

So if we are to believe you and believe that he knew that the US had been attacked by a terroist group, the flag burned, the Al quaida flag raised and four Americans murdered,,and he still got on his jet aeroplane and went to Las Vegas to campaign? Holy shit! I'm voting for Romney.

You are incapable of seeing anything Regarding Obama in an Objective light.

You want to Pretend he declared it an Organized Act of Terrorism in that Speech, which is debatable, and then you want to Ignore everything that happened in the weeks after that speech.

Take the Blinders off son.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Because he didn't. He repeatedly blamed it on a video.

For the second time in this thread alone, here is the President, calling the attack an act of terror, on 9-12

President Obama Speaks on the Attack on Benghazi - YouTube

So now please go to the top of the thread and answer the poll for yourself.

No liar, he speaks of 9/11 and generically states that no act of terror will go unpunished, he NEVER terms this a terrorist attack.

Instead, the lying fuck blamed the whole thing on Nakoula Nakoula, some two bit con man in LA. Rice, Clinton and Obama all referenced internet videos as the reason for the attack, your lies can't alter reality, Poo Poo Doo Doo.

{Obama says in a speech Tuesday before the U.N. General Assembly that "there are no words that excuse the killing of innocent" and "no video that justifies an attack on an embassy."

Obama says the video "is an insult not only to Muslims, but to America as well."}

So Obama did not say

"No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for."

Even though he clearly did say it - is that what you are telling me?

That was a reference to 9/11.


Fail.

 

[LogikAndReazon]

A spontaneous "act of terror" based on an internet video........

Or a planned terrorist attack on the U.S. Embassy and consulate by Al Qaeda after numerous threats and the denial of increased security..........

Everyone is clear who is responsible, who is backtracking, and who is trying to cover their asses...

 

[Uncensored2008]

"It took the president 14 days before he called the attack in Benghazi an act of terror,"

True or not true?

Not true, it took him 11 days to say that it MIGHT be a planned attack, and 14 to definitively say that it was.

Try this on, fucktard;

I condemn the terrorist acts that occurred on Setp. 11, 2001. Airport security has gotten out of hand. I oppose the way the TSA handles Airport security.

Did I call airport security a terrorist act?

BUT I SAID TERRORIST ACT, so I must have, WAHHHHHH.

Moron.

 

[emptystep]

So if the attack was by more than one person does that make it a mob? If Abu Khattala is not actually a member of al Qaeda it he an 'official terrorist'?

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/10/18/w...a-commander-in-benghazi-consulate-attack.html
Asked last week about Mr. Abu Khattala’s role, an American official involved in a separate United States investigation declined to comment on any particular suspects, but he indicated that the United States was tracking Mr. Abu Khattala and cautioned that the leadership of the attack might have been broader than a single man.

“Ansar al-Shariah is not only a shadowy group, it’s also quite factionalized,” the official said. “There isn’t necessarily one overall military commander of the group.”

OMG, you're a complete fucking moron. The entire speech is about the attack. You really are this stupid, aren't you?

THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. Every day, all across the world, American diplomats and civilians work tirelessly to advance the interests and values of our nation. Often, they are away from their families. Sometimes, they brave great danger.

Yesterday, four of these extraordinary Americans were killed in an attack on our diplomatic post in Benghazi. Among those killed was our Ambassador, Chris Stevens, as well as Foreign Service Officer Sean Smith. We are still notifying the families of the others who were killed. And today, the American people stand united in holding the families of the four Americans in our thoughts and in our prayers.

The United States condemns in the strongest terms this outrageous and shocking attack. We're working with the government of Libya to secure our diplomats. I've also directed my administration to increase our security at diplomatic posts around the world. And make no mistake, we will work with the Libyan government to bring to justice the killers who attacked our people.

Since our founding, the United States has been a nation that respects all faiths. We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. But there is absolutely no justification to this type of senseless violence. None. The world must stand together to unequivocally reject these brutal acts.

Already, many Libyans have joined us in doing so, and this attack will not break the bonds between the United States and Libya. Libyan security personnel fought back against the attackers alongside Americans. Libyans helped some of our diplomats find safety, and they carried Ambassador Stevens’s body to the hospital, where we tragically learned that he had died.

It's especially tragic that Chris Stevens died in Benghazi because it is a city that he helped to save. At the height of the Libyan revolution, Chris led our diplomatic post in Benghazi. With characteristic skill, courage, and resolve, he built partnerships with Libyan revolutionaries, and helped them as they planned to build a new Libya. When the Qaddafi regime came to an end, Chris was there to serve as our ambassador to the new Libya, and he worked tirelessly to support this young democracy, and I think both Secretary Clinton and I relied deeply on his knowledge of the situation on the ground there. He was a role model to all who worked with him and to the young diplomats who aspire to walk in his footsteps.

Along with his colleagues, Chris died in a country that is still striving to emerge from the recent experience of war. Today, the loss of these four Americans is fresh, but our memories of them linger on. I have no doubt that their legacy will live on through the work that they did far from our shores and in the hearts of those who love them back home.

Of course, yesterday was already a painful day for our nation as we marked the solemn memory of the 9/11 attacks. We mourned with the families who were lost on that day. I visited the graves of troops who made the ultimate sacrifice in Iraq and Afghanistan at the hallowed grounds of Arlington Cemetery, and had the opportunity to say thank you and visit some of our wounded warriors at Walter Reed. And then last night, we learned the news of this attack in Benghazi.

As Americans, let us never, ever forget that our freedom is only sustained because there are people who are willing to fight for it, to stand up for it, and in some cases, lay down their lives for it. Our country is only as strong as the character of our people and the service of those both civilian and military who represent us around the globe.

No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character, or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for. Today we mourn four more Americans who represent the very best of the United States of America. We will not waver in our commitment to see that justice is done for this terrible act. And make no mistake, justice will be done.

But we also know that the lives these Americans led stand in stark contrast to those of their attackers. These four Americans stood up for freedom and human dignity. They should give every American great pride in the country that they served, and the hope that our flag represents to people around the globe who also yearn to live in freedom and with dignity.

We grieve with their families, but let us carry on their memory, and let us continue their work of seeking a stronger America and a better world for all of our children.

Thank you. May God bless the memory of those we lost and may God bless the United States of America

Now highlight the part where he called the "attackers" terrorist.

What is the Definition of Terrorism? And Why is the White House Afraid of Using the Term?

 

[slackjawed]

President Obama has had ample opportunity to completely clarify why he and his administration were running around for about 2 weeks blaming a youtube video. He could have even done so without really blaming anyone, as it would not be a stretch to say information was not good in the time the attack was happening.
He hasn't done that.
The rose garden speech is not 'proof' as he sent his boy on a news show and he was pinned down, and had to agree that the president did not say it was an act of terror or a terrorist act, that was 12 days after the events.
Check this board during that time, most on the left were saying the same thing and calling for the guy who made the film to be arrested or worse, and parroting the white house claim that it was all because of a film on youtube. The posts are still there, you can read them yourselves. The obama supporters were only repeating the party line from the White house.

Instead of being a arrogant ass, and going to the UN and all but apologizing for our freedom of speech, he certainly could have headed this off before it got so far out of hand.

It is a shame too, President Obama had control of this election until this started to unravel, now It is not such a sure thing.

 

[Claudette]

None of this explains the full court press to blame a movie trailer for the attack. Both Obamas minions on media talk shows and Obama himself in front of the UN. A known and calculated lie to coverup a failure.

Pathetic.

Yup. Barry's State Department dropped the ball big time even after requests for more security.

He sent his minions out on all the morning news shows to blame it on a fucking video.

Barry's running for that second term and didn't want any negative news. You know. The requests for added security in Libya. But hey. We all know that second term is way more important to Barry than a few lives lost.

He's the POTUS and the buck stops with him.

If this had happened under Bush Ol' Oop Pah would be screaming like a stuck pig as would the other lefties on here who are defending Barry Boy.

 

[NYcarbineer]

The simplest answer to the OP's question can be put this way.

When is the last time you ever saw the kind of rightwing nuts that hang out on this forum ever admit they were wrong about anything?

 

[NYcarbineer]

You gotta love how NOW the Right is insisting that Muslims are incapable of committing acts of violence in reaction to something insulting to their religion.

WTF??? What was all that previous rhetoric about?

[LordBrownTrout]

So did this happen or not?

President Obama Speaks on the Attack on Benghazi - YouTube

Of course, and Obama does not directly call it terrorism in that. And then as I said he spends the next 2 weeks Claiming it was likely just a Mob that got out of hand.

Which of course you want to Dismiss.

Even the Moderator in the Debate walked her statement back and said Romney was right on the Broader Point.

He refers to it as an "Act of terror" - I don't really see how you could get more direct. Do you want him to tack a note to your dumb head?

Because he didn't.

Perhaps he was hammering down so hard on the video to show how much they disapproved of the video so that other places around the Middle East, and the world, would not erupt in violence. But your probably right, it was a giant left-wing conspiracy to hide some awful truth. Thank you, BENGHAZI TRUTHER!

 

[BlindBoo]

Because he didn't. He repeatedly blamed it on a video.

When did his blame the murder of the 4 American directly on the video. Got transcript of what the President said?

 

[Uncensored2008]

He repeatedly referenced "internet videos that insult Islam."

{Speaking at a candidate forum on the Spanish-language network Univision, Obama said: 'What we do know is that the natural protests that arose because of the outrage over the video were used as an excuse by extremists to see if they can also directly harm U.S. interests.'}
