Social and political criticisms
From CNN
At least one arrest has been made in connection with violent attack on US Consulate in Benghazi Libya. President Obama has condemned the attack; saying that while the video on Mohammad may be wrong, the attack was unwarranted. (Gov Romney attacked the President in a speech)
Those who were killed were US Ambassador Christopher Stevens and two Navy Seals: Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods. A gaming expert Sea Smith was among those killed.
There was a protest outside the consulate, and then the attack came and the resulting firefight lasted 4 hours.
US has deployed USS Laboon and USS MacFaul both armed with satellite guided Tomahawk missile.
The attack coincided with 11th anniverssary of 9/11 attack on World Trade Center.
It is the first time I heard a US ambassador was killed by terrorist; (Weakened security, weaker US Armed Forces defenses abroad?)
Have the Westerners not learned their lesson not to cross the Moslems on their religion? And this is what they reaped..We condole with the the families of those killed by this brutal and senseless act
