(20,629 posts)the past 48 hours, as it looks like that stupid-ass movie had NOTHING to do with the Libyan consulate attack.

(2,104 posts)I can't speak to everyone else or the last 48hours but as I saw new information I moved on from that inaccurate information that was being reported.
I don't think I was the only one here to do so.

Did she say anything about that ?
I watched on the news earlier today that they did have some possible suspects in custody

(50,130 posts)Because that is what I have seen passed around on several message boards. I just want to know if the right is spreading that as a lie, or if it has been reported by trusted sources.

(23,867 posts)I'm grateful that she is making the distinction between any possible protest, and the actual attack.
But, I hear her saying that these rebels/terrorists are now more interested in international affairs rather than just regional. What I find upsetting about this is that if these attacks were revenge for our imprisoning Al-Libi for his part in the '93 World Trade Center bombing, then one really must go a step further in order to really find the true cause for bombing of that embassy. If the US had not been meddling in the Middle East (ie. we use lots of oil and we need to control and use their oil), then the 'World Trade Center bombing never would have taken place. It didn't happen because they "hate our freedoms". It didn't happen in a vacuum. And I don't think it's apples and oranges, because people cross borders. I mean that even the sanctions in Iraq for over a decade have to have created really dire situations which create fertile ground for the very attacks we see. To be blunt, we did it to ourselves.
It's hard to erase the past. And now we're participants in a bigger international game. Or I should say THEY are. For all of the invading we've done, we have never had to suffer the consequences.
