In a recent article by Olivier Knox in the Yahoo! News entitled "U.S.
ambassador killed after chaotic, hours-long siege," Knox informs readers of
the recent events in the Middle East, a dangerous
place.
Unfortunately, there were attacks on various U.S. embassies
throughout the Middle East, specifically, Libya. The attacks were supposedly
ignited by a film on the Internet made by an American. If that is the case, then
people were murdered over a video on the Internet, which is absolutely
ridiculous.
The article states: "American officials painted a harrowing
picture late Wednesday of the assault on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi that
left the widely respected diplomat and three others dead." It is a shame that
four innocent people were murdered for no real reason. I did not realize that
people could get so angry over some stupid video on the Internet.
I am
reminded of the infamous attack on the Twin Towers by extremists back in 2001.
The attacks also happened to occur on the 11th anniversary of that attack. Both
of these attacks were carried out by Muslim extremists.
Chris Stevens and
the other 3 Americans were good, innocent people that committed no crime and
were unjustly killed. I can only hope that President Obama makes good on his
promise to bring these murderers to justice.
