Libyan Questions

Why did Obama miss the daily intelligence briefing for the week before the attacks?

This fits into the Demoralization category.

There are answers, but these would cost tickets to partying at the parties of infamy and, probably their press agent jobs.

No one will give answers to a journalist because our violence conductors are covered by power now and want to expand that power.
And security forces protect them from the people who are the instruments of violence.
And there is no ‘court’ on temporal earth to sort it out.
Accountability and transparency not this time either.

It is another attempt for wrong to defeat right into oblivion with unanswered questions.
And, also, to obliterate that line between both good and evil, and truth from lies.
And, to tire and defeat the questioners.

They can try, meanwhile the press agents and people who are tools should check out the holder of the qualities of omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence for a better perspective.

Just who is waging war on peace with hate, lies, and violence? It’s a big story to write for both the uninformed and for vindication.

The president missed his daily intel briefing because he’s too busy doing what he does best- campaigning. This guy has done NOTHING but campaign since he entered the U.S Senate. Unfortunately, the American people are too focused on the likes of Jersey Shore and Keeping up with the Kardashians and the politics of envy to care what happens to this country.

Our Founding Fathers must be spinning in their graves.

“For #4– It’s 9/11 and you’re in the middle east. Seriously, how much of a “credible warning” do you NEED?!”
Bravo, Foxfier!

Thanks, Mac.

I missed much of the movie, but saw that scene. Mr. Heston taking the orphan on his horse was (to me) a fitting end.

What struck me was that the make-shift mortar was about a million times more dangerous to Heston and the padre than to the Boxers.

Of interest, Sgt. Maj. (then Pvt.) Daniel Daly, USMC won his first (he had two, the other 1915 for Haiti) MoH for extraordinary action in that campaign.

“for service as set forth in the following

“CITATION:

“For extraordinary heroism while serving with the Captain Newt Hall’s Marine Detachment, 1st Regiment (Marines), in action in the presence of the enemy during the battle of Peking, China, 14 August 1900, Daly distinguished himself by meritorious conduct.”

re: “meritorious conduct”: From “Unto the Breach” blog:

“During the 56-day seige of the international compound, Capt. Hall went to bring reinforcements to reestablish their defensive line when the German outpost was pushed back. Pvt. Daly remained behind, singlehandedly defending a bastion on the Tartar Wall against hundreds of Chinese forces – armed only with a bolt-action rifle and bayonet. Daly held his position overnight, and Marine Corps legend states that the bodies of 200 dead Boxers littered the ground when reinforcements arrived.”

“Born: 11 Nov. 1873, Glen Cove, N.Y…. One of only 19 men to receive the Medal of Honor twice… Of the 19 double recipients, is one of only two men to receive the Medal for two separate engagements… Offered a commission on several occasions but refused… Also saw action at Hayti and fought during World War I… Also awarded the Navy Cross and Distinguished Service Cross… Retired as Sergeant Major in 1929… Namesake of USS Daly (DD-519)… Departed: 27 Apr. 1939.”

Legend has it that at Chateau Thierry (I think) he motivated his troops, who were held up by machine gun fire, by shouting, “Get up, you s.o.b.’s! Do you want to live forever?” I imagine Achilles and Hector used similar motivational oratory.
