Well, it's been months now since the terrorists killed four Americans at our consulate, and so far it looks like terrorists got away with it, since i have not heard of any terrorists paying the price for that attack. Just like they got away with the prior attacks on our consulate, the Red Cross, and the British embassy. Terrorists are scoring without any meaningful US opposition, or so it seems.
I read that U.S. vows to pursue militants behind Algeria attack. Didn't Obama make this same boisterous declaration about pursuing the terrorists responsible for the attack in Libya? Or are we all about style and no substance, all bark and no bite?
"Terrorists should be on notice that they will find no sanctuary, no refuge, not in Algeria, not in North Africa, not anywhere. Those who would wantonly attack our country and our people will have no place to hide," he said.
Pakistan is not Libya. This is like a proxy war, only we kill people in one country, and claim it is the same as killing people from another country.
In other words, no, the terrorists who killed our people in Benghazi have not paid any price. Even the terrorist identified as one of the Benghazi attackers, we had in FBI custody, was released.

I don't see how they are terrorists. We were running a CIA prison in their own country. We had flown thousands of bombing sorties in this country less than a year before this.
The fact of the matter is when you mettle in the affairs of sovereign countries, you should expect this. These were Libyan citizens fighting US security forces that had set up a intelligence gathering/prison site in their country.
Tough crap for any American involved in this. Don't go labeling everybody that stands up to US military intervention as terrorists.

Libya? Obama and the media aren't interested in that old story. Anyone who actually thought that Obama cared about people needs to get their head examined. Romney should have jumped all over this story, and stay on it. Once he backed off of it then he gave Obama an easy out.

Well, look how long bin laden 'got away with it'.
Do you so admire Barack Obama that you hold him to a higher standard then, say, George Bush?
Let's see: 12 years versus 2 months...
Or were you one of the people who considered it 'not important' to bring bin laden to justice (because Bush was unable to get him)?
How many people were killed in Benghazi?
How many people were killed on 9/11?
yeah, right...keep pushing that fake righteous indignation.
