I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Quote: But maybe it has to do with the prison breaks in Iraq and Pakistan. Or maybe it has to do with Snowden being granted temporary asylum. What better way to get the public screaming for more surveillance than by jacking up the threat level?

Quote:US officials are raising red flags about a specific threat credible serious and clearly aimed at American interest in the Muslim world. Today the State Department issued a global travel alert due to an al-Qaeda terrorist threat. And beginning Sunday every embassy and consulate in Muslim countries that normally would be open will be closed from Egypt to Iraq Kuwait Bahrain and Afghanistan. The department -- conditions warrant take steps like this to balance our continued operations. With security and safety. A senior US official told ABC news there is a specific threat. A concerted effort against the US embassy or consulate we just don't know what the specific targeting its. Another US official added there could be other targets not just embassies. This is the first mass closing of diplomatic facilities due to an intelligence -- -- 2002 the first anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. Normally the decision to shut down operations at embassies -- made by an ambassador. At this time Washington is ordering the closures security considerations have let us. To take this precautionary step. Looming large on many minds is last year's surprise attack on the US consulate in Benghazi Libya. Insurgents with ties to al-Qaeda -- killed the US ambassador in three other Americans. For now the embassy closures are just scheduled for Sunday but they could be extend -- US intelligence officials learn more specifics.

Quote:Originally posted by AURaptor: Seriously. If this was such a panic / crisis / BFD, why wait until Sunday to close the embassies ? And this alert is to last for ALL of August, if not longer ? ( I'm SURE this has zero to do w/ the CNN report on Benghazi, right ? )

While far from the same, he DID package himself as the anti- W. Said he'd close Gitmo in his first year in office. How's that workin out ?

Quote:Originally posted by NewOldBrownCoat: SO last time , it was Obama and/or Hillary's fault for doing nothing. This time, they release a CYA alert, in case something happens, that they seem to think might. Which after all is what a terror threat level warning IS: We think something might be gonna happen.But you don't like that either. Just how are they supposed to respond to the "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" dilemma you put them in? Besides O, Hillary, and John Kerry all resigning from public office and leaving town to go live in a cave somewhere?

Quote:Originally posted by AURaptor: There were warnings a plenty before Benghazi, and no, it wasn't just that it was 9- 11 , or that the compound had previously been attacked. There was 'chatter', and what'd Hillary do ? Ignore calls for more security, and then " SOMEONE " called off any attempt at all to send in help.

But if you're not going to take my word for it, or any citations I offer, do your own research. But you'll likely believe the spin from Jay Carney ahead of anything else.

Quote: Again, you're flat out delusional. Such are the rantings of those w/ small minds, unable to cope w/ reality. Placing delusions of grandeur or fabricating all manner of fairy tales to tell themselves you're just another example of the twisted, petty and deranged mind of a Leftist, who feels the need to stalk those with whom they disagree
