So who do you plan on declaring war on?

....you have no clue.

I'm sorry the "We Report, You Decide" thing is so difficult for some folks to comprehend.

That doesn't happen anywhere in news. Your mind has been made up for you by those doing the reporting.

You declare war on the individuals or group who were responsible for the attack. Who do you think they are?

I kinda wondered that, too. I've never heard of him before.

Maybe he's famous on MSNBC. Or somethin'.

Not a war zone? One of the contractors was hit with mortar fire while operating a heavy machine gun...All the vehicles in use were apparently armored SUVs..

It was not sovereign US territory. It was a leased compound obviously being used primarily as a CIA base. It was the sovereign territory of Libya.

Has no one noticed that all those who escaped were CIA? You think the consulate was running with no state department employees?

Face it. The place was a CIA operation and the consulate provided coverage of that clandestine operation. The Ambassador was there to hold a few meeting escaping the expected demonstrations in Tripoli. So far it sounds like his death was more bad luck than bad will.
