Can Egypt afford to apologize at the moment? Larry Send a noteboard - 14/09/2012 03:21:53 AM
I realize that the Cairo mob did not kill anyone, unlike the mob in Benghazi, but it is clear the Libyan government has issued an apology and promised to hunt down the people responsible. Obviously, we will see if their actions match their words, but I want to know if Egypt has apologized for letting a mob attack our Embassy on the anniversary of 9/11, or promised to make sure it doesn't happen again. I haven't seen ANY response in the news whatsoever.


I forget the exact source I was reading this morning, but it seems that there is a major rift in the Salafists, if that article is any indication. The more I've read about the events, the murkier it all has become to me.

Question: did the Egyptian government apologize for letting a mob attack our embassy on 9/11/12? - 12/09/2012 03:37:00 PM 1042 Views
I haven't seen it, but I honestly wasn't looking for that. - 12/09/2012 04:00:39 PM 647 Views
The administration did issue an apology, which was stupid. - 12/09/2012 04:21:04 PM 598 Views
Don't get me started. I'm not in the mood, and I might rip your face off. - 12/09/2012 04:30:57 PM 501 Views
Try it. - 12/09/2012 05:28:37 PM 545 Views
... No, thanks. *NM* - 12/09/2012 05:39:30 PM 252 Views
Aw...I was hoping to see what "ripping off" my face would look like. *NM* - 12/09/2012 05:56:41 PM 269 Views
Unfortunately, I'm much calmer today. - 13/09/2012 03:47:20 PM 474 Views
I'm profoundly disappointed. - 13/09/2012 05:22:54 PM 490 Views
Would you care to cite this apology the US administration issued? - 12/09/2012 08:40:35 PM 633 Views

what is stupid is deliberately distorting the actual statements in order to be outraged at obama - 13/09/2012 04:01:04 PM 605 Views
I'm not outraged personally. - 13/09/2012 05:14:59 PM 493 Views
Besides, the whole point of this post was to question Egypt's position, not Romney OR Obama's *NM* - 13/09/2012 05:16:02 PM 276 Views
Uh huh... - 15/09/2012 02:33:39 AM 515 Views
Don't know, don't care. - 12/09/2012 04:24:18 PM 525 Views
No government has apologized to anyone for the attacks, to my knowledge. - 12/09/2012 05:37:45 PM 725 Views
So we're the only ones who apologized to anyone? That's disgusting. - 12/09/2012 05:55:39 PM 622 Views

Dunno about apologies - 12/09/2012 08:38:04 PM 532 Views
Clarification, please: Egypt arrested four of the perpetrators, or Libya (or both)? - 12/09/2012 08:45:11 PM 722 Views
Egypt. - 12/09/2012 08:55:37 PM 645 Views
Ah, thanks. - 12/09/2012 11:01:22 PM 518 Views
does anyone know where Romney actually stands on this? - 12/09/2012 11:26:47 PM 552 Views
NO ONE is as confused as Romney. - 12/09/2012 11:48:23 PM 606 Views
I don't know if he's confused... - 13/09/2012 12:09:16 PM 603 Views
Romney never "had" the foreign press to lose... - 13/09/2012 02:08:59 PM 558 Views

Oh great now it's our embassy in Sudan that is on fire - 14/09/2012 02:12:21 PM 576 Views
I suspect there is a very perverse dynamic at work here. - 14/09/2012 04:57:28 PM 628 Views
I love how the media are tying all this to a movie that no one watched. - 14/09/2012 03:22:38 PM 505 Views
What's this about then? - 15/09/2012 12:21:45 AM 491 Views
