So when the president and his top staffers personally argue for a certain decision that ends up being disastrously stupid, you are happy to shift blame down the chain of command.

When Benghazi happens, something that top white house staff would have had no involvement in until after the incident happened, all of a sudden all blame goes right to the top?

Sounds like conbot logic to me!

Then what did you bring it up for?

I didn't... you did... you asked me a question...

You are seriously claiming that the genocide in the 1980's was the reason for the second Iraq war in 2003?

See?

That was a response to pgs.

Still having trouble keeping up with thread flows?

Can I help you with anything else?

Lol, and I responded to you.

If you don't want other people to respond to your stupid statements, use PM.

Hahahhahahaha. I literally laughed out loud at this one. Are you seriously suggesting that the best place to learn about Benghazi is a thread on this forum?

Right... you asked a stupid question that had no bearing on what PGS and I were talking about. I guess my mistake was answering you because you're such and idiot.

Lol, are you seriously claiming that PGS was not talking about the Kurdish Genocide as a reason for the US to have invaded Iraq?

Did he not explicitly claim I don't care about the Kurdish people because I disagree with the Iraq war?

Yes and the thousands of lives being lost prior to the Allied invasion is no matter they were just Kurds and other minorities .


How many Kurds were killed prior to the Allied invasion of Iraq ?

The ones that were killed with chemical weapons? WMDs?

Yup those ones .
Born Ruff doesn't care about them they were only sand jockeys .

Did you ask him?

Did he say...

"BornRuff... I am claiming explicitly that you do not care about the Kurdish people because you disagreed with the Iraq War."

The answer is No.

You lose.

Please continue with more retarded posts. It seems that everyone is amused by them.

Lol, if your reading comprehension is really this bad, I dunno what to tell you.

But, you know, carry on crapping on this thread until it dies like every other thread you enter.

So you do know about the genocide which is where WMD's come into play .
Regardless how people were getting killed , it was happening .


But this thread isn't about Iraq it is about Benghazi and how the administration disregarded a basic American premise .
You do not leave your soldiers and diplomats alone and unprotected .
And also no attack without reprisal .


That has always been the American way back to the Barbary Pirates .
Interesting that , same general location .

You are referencing something that took place 15 years before the Iraq war, and something that happened before an entirely different invasion of Iraq. If they were going to invade Iraq over the Kurdish genocide, or their use of chemical weapons, all of which happened in the 80's, why on earth would that take place in 2003?

My comments are about the reaction to Benghazi in relation to other, much more serious incidents.

I think the disparity shows that this is much more a political issue than anyone showing actual care for the loss of American or any human life.

oh brother

It sure was a political issue for the Dems... which is why the Obama Administration lied about it. Winning reelection trumped the lives of those who were killed. They cared more about coasting through November.

How does that make sense? How do talking points on a Sunday morning TV show help or hurt the people who are already dead?
