Britain, Germany and the Netherlands urged their citizens Thursday to immediately leave the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi in response to what was described as an imminent threat against Westerners.What happened, did they let the movie maker out of jail? Oh hell, WHAT DIFFERENCE, AT THIS POINT, DOES IT MAKE?

President Obama on 3/28/11:
At this point, the United States and the world faced a choice. Gaddafi declared that he would show “no mercy” to his own people. He compared them to rats, and threatened to go door to door to inflict punishment. In the past, we had seen him hang civilians in the streets, and kill over a thousand people in a single day. Now, we saw regime forces on the outskirts of the city. We knew that if we waited one more day, Benghazi – a city nearly the size of Charlotte – could suffer a massacre that would have reverberated across the region and stained the conscience of the world. It was not in our national interest to let that happen. I refused to let that happen.So what did we get for saving Benghazi? A dead ambassador and three other Americans, black AQ flags being raised in the streets, warnings for westerners to leave the area or perhaps be slaughtered in a terror attack. Surely there's a smart power explanation for this somewhere.

I've been expecting the parents of those dead in Benghazi to speak out. They were very vocal right after the incident, interviewed several times on Fox and (other news outlets?). But I have not heard anything. I'm betting they did not care for Hillary's outburst.

Remember too the father of Petraeous' girlfriend saying that we haven't heard nothing yet, or something like that. Maybe he was talking about the other general or the Kardashian sisters, or maybe something more.
Strange times we're living in.
