Subject: Lying Liberals...is there any other kind?

I'm sure you've seen the post of all the consulate attacks that occured under President G.W. Bush...and how the Republicans never said a word. As Huffpo put it..."13 Benghazis that occured on Bush's Watch Without a Peep from Fox News" The meme concludes Total Deaths: 60 Outraged Republicans: 0.

The Independent Journal Review put together a list of sources that debunk the exaggerated claims:

1.January 22, 2002. Calcutta, India Gunmen associated with Harkat-Ul-Jihad al-Islami attack the U.S. Consulate. Five people are killed.
REALITY: None were American (The Tribune)

2.June 14, 2002. Karachi, Pakistan. Suicide bomber connected with al Queda attacks the U. S. Consulate, killing 12 and injuring 51.
REALITY: None were American (BBC)

3.October 12, 2002. Denpasar, Indonesia. U.S. diplomatic offices bombed as part of a string of “Bali Bombings.” No fatalities
REALITY: No American Deaths (no fatalities as even Huff Po acknowledges)

4.February 28, 2003. Islamabad, Pakistan. Several gunmen fire upon the U.S. Embassy. Two people are killed.
REALITY: None were Americans (Fox News) (Looks like Fox News peeped btw)

5.May 12, 2003. Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Armed al Qaeda terrorists storm the diplomatic compound killing 36 people including nine Americans. The assailants committed suicide by detonating a truck bomb
REALITY: Nine American Defense Contractors Killed
After numerous State Department warnings and Saudi Arabia investigating al Qaeda for a potential planned attack, three defense compounds were assaulted with car bombs and armed attackers. Nine defense contractors were killed.
Bush IMMEDIATELY called the attack part of the War on Terror and two of the attackers that January 22, 2002. Calcutta, India. Gunmen associated with Harkat-ul Jihad al-Islami attack the U.S. survived the raid were killed by Saudi Police forces….you know, just like Benghazi (CNN)

6.July 30, 2004. Tashkent, Uzbekistan. A suicide bomber from the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan attacks the U.S. Embassy, killing two people.
REALITY: None were Americans. (BBC)

7.December 6, 2004. Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Al Qaeda terrorists storm the U.S. Consulate and occupy the perimeter wall. Nine people are killed.
REALITY: None were Americans (Guardian)

8.March 2, 2006. Karachi, Pakistan again. Suicide bomber attacks the U.S. Consulate killing four people including U.S. diplomat David Foy who was directly targeted by the attackers. (I wonder if Lindsey Graham or Fox News would even recognize the name “David Foy”. This is the third Karachi terrorist attack in four years on what’s considered American soil)
REALITY: One U.S. Diplomat killed
Finally, something that’s like Benghazi! Except that the Ambassador wasn’t missing, he was killed instantly. There wasn’t an 8-hour long siege, an AWOL president and Secretary of State, or service personnel hung out to dry with no rescue attempt. It wasn’t a recent warzone and there weren’t requests for additional security turned down. Oh, and no one falsely blamed a video for causing a non-existent protest….except for those caveats, it’s just like Benghazi.

9.September 12, 2006. Damascus, Syria. Four armed gunmen shouting “Allahu akbar” storm the U.S. Embassy using grenades, automatic weapons, a car bomb and a truck bomb. Four people are killed. 13 are wounded.
REALITY: None were Americans (CNN)

10.January 12, 2007. Athens, Greece. Members of a Greek terrorist group called the Revolutionary Struggle fire a rocket-propelled grenade at the U.S. Embassy. No Fatalities
REALITY: None were Americans and again…No Fatalities

11.March 18, 2008. Sana’a Yeman. Members of the al-Qaeda-linked Islamic Jihad of Yeman fire a mortar at the U.S. Embassy. The shot misses the embass, but hits a bearby school killing two
REALITY: None were Americans (CNN)

12.July 9, 2008. Istanbul Turkey. Four Armed terrorists attack the U.S. Consulate. Six people are killed.
REALITY: None were Americans (Reuters)

13.September 17, 2008. Sana’a Yemen. Terrorists dressed as military officials attack the U.S. Embassy with an arsenal of weapons, including RPGs and detonate two car bombs. Sixteen people are killed including an American student and her husband (they had been married for three weeks when the attack occurred. This is the second attack on this embassy in seven months.
REALITY: None were Americans
“Attackers used vehicle bombs, rocket-propelled grenades and automatic weapons to mount a coordinated assault on the U.S. Embassy here Wednesday leaving 10 guards and civilians dead outside the main gate but failing to breach the walled compound. No Americans were killed.” (Washington Post)

The lying liberals have also missed the point. Benghazi isn’t only outrageous because people died or even because it was Americans who died, but because “Stand Down” orders were given, cries for help ignored, blame was placed on a video and those in charge lied and covered up an undeniable terrorist attack.
