Do you think someone was sending us a message? Benghazi hit again on the Anniversary of 911. Thoughts?
A powerful car bomb exploded Wednesday near Libya's Foreign Ministry building in the heart of the eastern coastal city of Benghazi, security officials said, exactly one year after an attack there killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans.
The early morning blast targeted a building that once housed the U.S. Consulate under the rule of King Idris, who former Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi overthrew in a 1969 bloodless coup. The explosion caused no serious casualties, though several passers-by were slightly wounded, officials said.
People gather to look at the site of a car bombing in Benghazi, Libya, Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2013. A powerful car bomb exploded Wednesday near Libya’s Foreign Ministry building …more in the heart of the eastern coastal city of Benghazi, security officials said, one year to the date after an attack there killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans. The early morning blast targeted a building that once housed U.S. Consulate under the rule of King Idris, who former Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi overthrew in a 1969 bloodless coup
No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which also comes on the 12th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks in the U.S. The security officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to journalists.....snip~
Car bomb hits Libyan Foreign Ministry in Benghazi
Hi MMC !
I just hope this is the worst that happens today!!
There were probably a few car bombs in Libya this past month. But this one, because it hit a vacant building that was once (over 70 years ago) a US consulate, on 9/11, is significant?
If I light a firecracker today, will I get in the news too?
DEVELOPING STORY:
A Florida man, a member of Al Ecofarm, has detonated a firecracker on 9/11 along a stretch of side walk once thought to have been traveled by a US official only 80 years ago. We'll be providing updates as they become available.
The other day you asked about this kind of thing happening todayDo you think someone was sending us a message? Benghazi hit again on the Anniversary of 911. Thoughts? ...
.There were probably a few car bombs in Libya this past month
If you don't know, you shouldn't say.
keep going, you're getting there ...But this one, because it hit a vacant building that was once (over 70 years ago) a US consulate
,on 9/11, is significant?
yes ... on 9/11 ... yes ... in Benghazi

Now was that so hard?

Symbolism. It seems very important to those who want to do America harm via terrorism.
Do you honestly believe the OP story is meaningful or relevant to anything? Some dirtbags carbombed a building that was a US consulate 70+ years ago. So what?
A couple of kids could have done that - it's meaningless.
What's with Slick's suit? Is he shrinking? Buying large? Or ... something else.
As they say in the real estate biz ... location location location
And as for the date, was last year's attack and murders also in Bengahzi and also on 9/11 also a meaningless coincidence?

Coincidence does not create meaning. That's the point of my firecracker analogy. Meaning is created by significant acts. This act is beyond insignificant. I can't imagine why anyone would give a crap about it.
But it was on 9/11 and in Benghazi!!
So what?
I detect a "significant" troll component ... we're done here.

Don't worry.....dealing with such. Is a Specialty of mine!
I detect a significant "OMG, a carbomb and no one was killed!" component.
It's belittling 9/11 to pretend that some amateur's ineffective carbomb, anywhere in the world, means anything.
bless you
