The Obama White House, Hillary Clinton, and Jay Carney would like Americans to believe that a film that has been online for Months was the cause of the attacks coincidentally on the 11th anniversary of 911.
If you believe that, you won't blame Obama's lack of foreign policy prowess you see.
But Al Qaeda today spelled out the REAL cause.
Today, Al-Qaeda said the deadly attack at the US Consulate in Benghazi was in response to its leader’s death.
AL-Qaeda said the deadly attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya was in revenge for the killing of the network’s number two Sheikh Abu Yahya al-Libi, SITE Intelligence Group reported.
“The killing of Sheikh Abu Yahya only increased the enthusiasm and determination of the sons of (Libyan independence hero) Omar al-Mokhtar to take revenge upon those who attack our Prophet,” said al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula said in a statement, quoted by the US-based monitoring group.
Al-Qaida’s Yemen-based offshoot did not claim direct responsibility for Tuesday’s attack on the US consulate in Benghazi that killed the US ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens, and three other Americans.
But it stressed that “the uprising of our people in Libya, Egypt and Yemen against America and its embassies is a sign to notify the United States that its war is not directed against groups and organisations … but against the Islamic nation that has rebelled against injustice.”
The statement comes four days after al-Qaida chief Ayman al-Zawahiri issued a video eulogising Libi, his late deputy and propaganda chief who was killed in a drone strike in June.
Mohammed al-Megaryef, the head of Libya’s national assembly, said today that the attack on the US consulate in Benghazi was planned and “meticulously executed.”
I still simply cannot believe that on the Anniversary of 911, the Obama Administration was SO naive that they didn't beef-up security in volatile places like Libya, Yemen, Sudan, Egypt, etc.??????
We are told every 911 Anniversary that surveillance and security is extra vigilant around the USA because it would be the perfect time for terrorists to try another attack.
Wouldn't the same hold true about American interests all over the world and ESPECIALLY in volatile places?

The so-called "movie" had been online for months, so WHY did the Egyptian TV host "suddenly" take an interest and start playing, and replaying and replaying the clip just prior to the attacks? I wonder WHO brought that "movie trailer" to his attention so he could broadcast it on TV rather than just the internet?
Additionally, why would you think that AQ is totally honest? Why do you think that AQ would not take an opportunity to reap benefit of the publicity of this denigrating movie as well as what they would see as an attack success? Maybe the attack was by a local group of terrorists, USING the cover of the "movie trailer" which had been played over and over on TV to inflame the population so they would have more people/protestors involved in the attack?
I'm still wondering if some wealthy, very conservative, rather hardline right "leaning" donor out there maybe wanted Romney to get a feather in his cap on "foreign policy" and thought that little "movie trailer" (The Innocence of Mohammed) could help present that opportunity just before the election. Romney was so quick with his statement, so quick on the trigger. It's really interesting. Politics gets very nasty sometimes.

Had nothing to do with Romney. It's much simpler than that. As has already been suggested, the attacks were coordinated to occur on 9/11.

So you're congratulating Obama then? About time...
Sometimes I get a genuine kick out of your silly partisan nonsense. "See... AQ attacked us b/c Obama keeps killing their leaders!!! Look at how weak he is. Or something. Obama makes me hate words."
Thank God we have a President who is actually going after Al Qaeda instead of ignoring the #1 threat to our national security like Bush did.
I suppose Romney would use this opportunity to invade Russia????
very true and good post..
