Obama’s Jimmy Carter moment.
The parallels between the Carter administration and the Obama Regime are now almost eerie. Obama has sown the wind. Now America reaps the whirlwind.
What has happened?
Islamists in Egypt have stormed the American embassy in Cairo. Fortunately for us, the embassy had been evacuated before the incident.
From Fox News:
Main ultraconservative Islamist protesters climbed the walls of the U.S. Embassy in Egypt's capital Tuesday and brought down the flag, replacing it with a black flag with an Islamic inscription to protest a video attacking Islam's prophet, Muhammad.
Hundreds of protesters marched to the embassy in downtown Cairo, gathering outside its walls and chanting against the movie, which was reportedly produced in the United States.
"Say it, don't fear: Their ambassador must leave," the crowd chanted.
Dozens of protesters then scaled the embassy walls, went into the courtyard and took down the flag from a pole. They brought it back to the crowd outside, which tried to burn it, but failing that, tore it apart. The protesters on the wall then raised on the flagpole a black flag with the Muslim declaration of faith on it, "There is no god but God and Muhammad is his prophet."
The flag, similar to the banner used by al-Qaida, is commonly used by ultraconservatives around the region. Almost all the embassy staff had left the compound before the protest, and the ambassador was out of town.
The protest was sparked by outrage over a video being promoted by an extreme anti-Muslim Egyptian Christian campaigner in the U.S., clips of which are available on the social website YouTube and dubbed in Egyptian Arabic. The video depicts Muhammad as a fraud, showing him having sex and calling for massacres. Muslims find it offensive to depict Muhammad in any fashion, much less in an insulting way.
By evening, the protest grew with thousands standing outside the embassy, chanting "Islamic, Islamic. The right of our prophet will not die." A group of women in black veils and robes that left only their eyes exposed chanted, "Worshippers of the Cross, leave the Prophet Muhammad alone."
Isn’t that special. Obama did everything he could to help the Islamist spring gain ground. We threw an ally under the bus and what do we have to show for it? We have an anti-American Islamist regime in Cairo.
A nation that was once an ally is now rapidly becoming an enemy.
In Libya, another nation we “helped,” our consulate was burned.
From Ahramonline:
An armed mob has attacked the US consulate in the Libyan city of Benghazi and set fire to the building, witnesses reported, in what they said was a protest at a film they said offended Islam.
A little earlier, Libya's deputy interior minister Wanis al-Shari, told AFP the crowd had attacked the building and that information was confirmed by the US embassy in the capital Tripoli.
Savages riot because their religion was insulted and what is the response of the Obama Regime?
The American Embassy released the following statement:
The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims – as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions. Today, the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, Americans are honoring our patriots and those who serve our nation as the fitting response to the enemies of democracy. Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy. We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others
Can the worthless, spineless members of the Obama Regime get any worse?
We are condemning free speech because a bunch of savages are offended?
Give me a break.
Let’s remember today is September 11th. This is the anniversary of the attack on America by Islam. We do not honor the patriots who serve to day. We remember those who fell on 9/11.
The Obama Regime once again bows to Islam.
It would be asking Obama too much to grow a pair but then again, he believes we are the problem, not the Islamists.

UPDATE: ISLAMISTS FIRE ROCKET-PROPELLED GRENADES at US Consulate in Libya – Building Torched to the Ground (Video)

US Official Killed In Libya Prophet Protest
A US official has been killed and others wounded in Libya as an armed mob protesting over a film they said offended Islam attacked the US consulate in Benghazi.
Libya's Supreme Security Committee spokesman said: "One American staff member has died and a number have been injured in the clashes."
But Abdel Monem al Hurr said he did not know the exact number of injured.
Armed gunmen attacked the compound on Tuesday evening, clashing with Libyan security forces before the latter withdrew as they came under heavy fire.
Reporters on the scene said they could see looters raiding the compound, walking off with desks, chairs and washing machines.
Libya's deputy interior minister Wanis al Sharef said that other staff members were evacuated "and are safe and sound".
In the Egyptian capital, Cairo, earlier, protesters climbed the walls of the US embassy, tore down the American flag and burned it.
The protests were sparked by outrage over a video being promoted by an extreme anti-Muslim Egyptian Christian campaigner in the US, which the demonstrators say insults the Prophet Mohammed.
The US condemned the attack in Benghazi, amid reports that the mission had been set on fire and targeted with rocket-propelled grenades.
"We can confirm that our office in Benghazi, Libya, has been attacked by a group of militants," State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said.
"We condemn in strongest terms this attack," she added in a statement issued before reports of the death, which came on the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
US officials were working with the Libyans to secure the compound, Nuland said, adding that the earlier protest in Cairo had ended.
Abdelmonoem al Horr, a spokesman for the Libyan interior ministry's security commission, said the grenades were fired from a nearby farm at the building.
Security forces and the interior ministry were trying to contain the situation, he added.
The film apparently depicts Mohammed as a fraud, showing him having sex and calling for massacres.
Many Muslims consider any depiction of the prophet to be offensive.
But officials said it remained unclear whether the two protests in Benghazi and Cairo had been coordinated or whether they were linked.
"We cannot confirm any connection between these incidents," said a senior State Department official, asking to remain anonymous.

A couple of questions:
1-what is the POTUS going to do about this especially since an American was killed---this was not an active war zone (so to speak)?
2-What the heck does this mean?
We cannot confirm any connection between these incidents," said a senior State Department official, asking to remain anonymous.
Of course they are connected. . .who's running the show at State. . .oh that's right, Huma!

And have you heard about this (a some what related story):
Taliban Pose As Women On Facebook To Spy
Taliban fighters are posing as "attractive women" on Facebook to lure soldiers into giving intelligence about their operations, according to reports.
Australian soldiers are being warned not to be enticed by fake social media profiles before they are deployed to Afghanistan, according to a federal government review of social media and defence.
Geo-tagging, which secretly logs the location from where a post is made or photo uploaded, is a significant hazard, says the review, reported by Australia's Sunday Telegraph newspaper.
It warns family and friends of soldiers that they may unwittingly threaten missions by sharing confidential information like names, ranks and locations online.
The review said: "Media personnel and enemies create fake profiles to gather information. For example, the Taliban have used pictures of attractive women as the front of their Facebook profiles and have befriended soliders.". .

he already has. He's told them to go back to their 1968 borders, given up their defense secrets, and embarrassed Netinyahu by refusing to meet with him on several occasions, and making him come into the White House through a back door, and refused to name Jerusalem the capitol of Israel.

He has done it again. He snubbed PM Netanyahu in an article that came out today.

Obam seems to be doing all the wrong things lately, yet he is still up in the polls?
