Video of US Ambassador Dragged In Benghazi Libya
These people are animals. I think we can stop worrying about offending them. It’s time to release the footage of Osama bin Laden’s death and burial.
CAUTION This video contains GRAPHIC content. This video was uploaded by a YouTube user in an Arabic language portion of the site claiming it was authentic raw footage of United States Ambassador Chris Stevens – victim of the 9/11/2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya. In the attack, Ambassador Stevens and three others were killed in an apparently coordinated attack on the U.S. consulate and a safe house. The video purports to show the body of Amb. Stevens being dragged on the ground by the gathered men, amid celebratory cheers. This video is newsworthy to the Presidential campaign because, if true, it apparently contradicts the statements made by President Obama’s campaign, and by his officials in the State Department, that the body of Ambassador Stevens was treated with respect and that the attack was not pre-meditated, but rather was a spontaneous reaction to a movie trailer about Islam.
The authenticity of this video or its source has not been verified, and likely cannot be verified ever. However, the body of the depicted victim of the video appears to be clothed in the same shirt, pants and belt as seen in one authenticated photo of Ambassador Stevens after his death. It originally was uploaded by a YouTube channel user named “Abdalgadar Fad”. The uploader had inserted Arabic language texts that were translated to read, “Moment directed the U.S. ambassador before his death” and the headline inserted there was “U.S. Ambassador and the people of Benghazi rescue attempt before his death.”
Update:
Various early translations are contradictory as to whether the Ambassador is alive or dead at the beginning of the video, and also as to the meaning of the cries of Alahu Akbar in the crowd, as to whether those were in celebration of retrieving a live or dead body. Nonetheless, Ambassador Stevens did not appear to be conscious. The historic significance of the video likely is as to the care or lack of care given the Ambassador and the manner of handling of his remains.
Joke Of The Day: Remember 9-11
I was sitting at a long stoplight yesterday, minding my own business, patiently waiting for it to turn green even though there was no on-coming traffic. A carload of bearded, young, loud Muslims, shouting anti-American slogans, with a half-burned American Flag duct taped on the trunk of their car and a “Remember 9-11” slogan spray painted on the side, was stopped next to me. Suddenly they yelled, “praise Allah” and took off before the light changed.
Out of nowhere an 18-wheeler came speeding through the intersection and ran directly over their car, crushing it completely and killing everyone in it.
For several minutes I sat in my car thinking to myself, ” Man… that could have been me!” So today, bright and early, I went out and got a job as a truck driver
