U.S. Marines are on the ground in Yemen to deal with the aftermath of an attack on the U.S. Embassy in the capital city of Sanaa, as the Obama administration warns of sustained protests outside diplomatic posts across the Middle East and North Africa. Pentagon spokesman George Little told Fox News the team is in Yemen as a "precautionary measure." The move comes as Reuters reports that protesters have jumped over U.S. Embassy walls in both Sudan and Tunisia. Reuters reports that protesters also set fire to trees and broke windows inside the U.S. Embassy compound in Tunis. That is just a snapshot of the violent unrest playing out Friday, in the widest protests yet across the Muslim world. One protester was killed in the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli in clashes with security forces, after a crowd of protesters set fire to a KFC and an Arby's restaurant. Protesters hurled stones and glass at police in a furious melee that left 25 people wounded, 18 of them police. Security forces in Egypt and Yemen fired tear gas and clashed with protesters to keep them away from U.S. embassies. And Germany's Foreign Minister says the country's embassy in the Sudanese capital of Khartoum has been stormed by protesters and set partially on fire. The intense demonstrations, purportedly by people upset over an anti-Islam film, follow warnings by the State Department that the protests could spread across the region. The department, on its Twitter account, cautioned Thursday of sustained protests in Egypt, Oman and Jordan, among other places. The Department of Homeland Security and the FBI also issued a joint intelligence bulletin warning that the violent outrage aimed at U.S. embassies could be spread to America by extremist groups. In a statement to Fox News, a DHS official said that there is no specific, credible information at this time to indicate that the attacks have increased the threat of violent reaction in the U.S., but it will continue to identify potential threats and take appropriate measures. Four Americans were killed in an attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, on Tuesday. A Marine unit was dispatched earlier in the week to Tripoli, to help fortify the U.S. Embassy there in the wake of the attack in the eastern part of the country.

After Ghandi, there's still a 1% in India. Some of the names may change, but they ain't going away. The good news... your class warfare BS can go on forever, even if you're 100% successful. You can always blame the wealth spread failure on not being a "pure enough" implementation of Marxism. That can definitely go on forever, especially if your collectivist dream government is based on "democracy", in which the majority will always vote for their own interests over those of the minority. Thus is human nature. Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.

Meanwhile, government financing is lavished without stint to promote every kind of war industry, and foreign investing by U.S. firms. The war priorities have depleted medical and education staffs. U.S. medical planning now includes programs to recruit large numbers of nurses from India. (3) Shortages of housing have caused a swelling of the homeless population in every major city. State and city governments across the country have become trained to bend to the needs of the military–giving automatic approvals to its spending without limit. The same officials cannot find money for affordable housing.
Of course the pervasive accounting fraud and routine swindling that drive the banking "industry" are abetted by the phantom government "policy" of the Federal Reserve, an institution that 99.999 percent of the American public could not explain under threat of water-boarding. The bottom line is political and economic leadership that can only pretend the economy works, and the destiny of such pretense is the death of legitimacy - meaning the public's faith in the system. Sooner or later either the public will revolt against such a system, or the system will just implode and leave the public floundering in a period of dreadful chaos. kunstler

The answer is,"Just another 3rd world shithole. The British were just over there to impose capitalism on the masses for the benfit of the British empire. This is what always happens when a country is sucked dry by another and then left to it's own devices.

I'm not saying it's right, if it's not what the people want, but look where South Africans put themselves when they decided to rule themselves.

Reports initially said that by the time anyone got to him, Stevens had died from smoke inhalation. But a group of people reportedly pulled Stevens from the room in the burning consulate building, saw he was still breathing and brought him to a hospital. He was breathing and his eyelids flickered, one witness said. “I tested his pulse and he was alive,” he said “No doubt. His face was blackened and he was like a paralyzed person.” Photographs of Stevens’ seemingly lifeless body were taken, but one man present took a video of the Libyans carrying Stevens struggling body to the hospital.

This is a source of wonder that humans would do well to explicitly acknowledge as we re-write the stories of our cultural maps for the twenty first century and beyond in a way that promotes our awe and reverence for the large living system of which we are a part: Gaia, our living Earth. Our survival as a species depends on that."
Only because a live Ambassador is a VERY valuable hostage,and a dead one is nothing more than rapidly cooling meat. They killed the 3 guards with him.

I don't know,but I do know it is obvious from your post that you equate having sex with adult prostitutes is the same as having sex with a pre-teen girl. And that ain't even addressing the drinking urine thing.

Then that is what you should have said,instead of writing "strung up". People hire prostitutes all the time to play dominance sex games with them. I would have expected you,or all people,to understand this.

This is just one example. That quote was about the war against your homies in Afghanistan,not VN. The US Army and the USMC both worked with and went on operations with the SVN army the whole time they were there. This ONLY stopped when your communist idols in the US House voted to defund the war to force the pullout of US troops,and then broke their promises to the SVN government by cutting back on all foreign aid to SVN to insure a communist victory. The SVN army was no longer receiving fuel,ammunition,medical care,money to pay troop salaries,or food that would enable them to keep fighting,while your communist pals in the north continued to receive massive amounts of money,weapons,and other aid from the Soviet Union and China.

And you're a slave to your master....next.
No, because I wasn't talking about sex. I was talking about the exercise of power.
And THIS is just an Ad Hominem, not even masquerading as debate.... So is disinfo....which opens up the Debatye to the opposition: Even the venal plutocrats of the Gilded Age realized that they ultimately owed their fortunes to the labor of the coal miner, the seamstress, the ironworker and the farmer, and that it was only through their good graces and the limited application of violence that they were allowed to keep their gains. Today’s plutocrats think their fortunes spring ex nihilo from their own greatness as they ship jobs to slave wage countries and gamble in the stock market. The fact that so fewer of us have outlets to sell our labor power is a matter of concern. But it has nothing to do with laziness; the capitalistic system is breaking down. And the ruling class berates the unemployed masses for their own indolence. Nice." The Topm 1% won't notice that the Guards have left their Stations....kinda like Stevens and his 'assistants'.
