Are you going to be OK? Words can be frightening things, especially when chained together into "rhetoric."

Let's all send out Healing Thoughts to Did I Ever Have Balls? He needs reassurance...he might be in transition.

The Obama administration is moving to dismiss charges against an arms dealer it had accused of selling weapons that were destined for Libyan rebels.
Lawyers for the Justice Department on Monday filed a motion in federal court in Phoenix to drop the case against the arms dealer, an American named Marc Turi, whose lawyers also signed the motion....Turi was indicted in 2014 on four felony counts: two of arms dealing in violation of the Arms Export Control Act and two of lying to the State Department in official applications. The charges accused Turi of claiming that the weapons involved were destined for Qatar and the United Arab Emirates, when the arms were actually intended to reach Libya.
Turi’s lawyers argued that the shipments were part of a U.S. government-authorized effort to arm Libyan rebels.
It’s unclear if any of the weapons made it to Libya, and there’s no evidence linking weapons provided by the U.S. government to the Benghazi attacks.
“The proposal did not result in an actual transfer of defense articles to Libya,” the State Department official told POLITICO on Tuesday.
But questions about U.S. efforts to arm Libyan rebels have been mounting, since weapons have reportedly made their way from Libya to Syria, where a civil war is raging between the Syrian Government and ISIL-aligned fighters.

But, nothing to see here, move along. Besides, Trump called someone fat. Think of your daughters!

c'mon donkey--

we've been flooding the the mideast, asia, and south america with weapons for untold years. they start out in the hands of people we think are our friends and end up in god knows whose hands. (can you say iran-contra)

trying to hang a specific incident on a single individual is horseshit.

the export of death is a bi-partisan effort to keep our economy humming.

I wasn't implying that it was right or wrong, just noting one reason why details weren't pursued. Too much embarrassment to the administration and, perhaps, legitimate national security concerns.

Not getting a lot of traction on this recently. Seems this thread has veered off to Clinton discussion. Trump voters: raise your hands and defend your answer to the above question!

1-2-3 GO!

LOL, given Hillary's likely choices for the Supreme Court. If not for that, I might vote for her.

You're arguing a possibility causes more pain than a certainty.
