Why isn't anyone talking about Algeria?

I know why Obama and the media are not talking about it. After all, weren't we told that Bin Laden was dead and Al Queida is on the run. Now (in case you missed it) Al Queida has taken a number of people hostage from a BP oil facility in Algeria. It also seems that a number have been killed. We don't know the fate of the Americans but we haven't heard a nary a peep from either the White House, the AP, or the lefties on this site.

could be because neither the White house or Obama had anything to do with it.According to reports Algerian troops attacked and some hostages were killed.did not say by which side.They were taken in protest of France ,not the US.

Obaminable won't. That was a carbon related facility with "oil people" manning it.

Now, if they were making windmills ... a whole different story.

Actually I hear the dude that's behind this got kicked out of Al Qaeda. I expect the US will take the appropriate action to get our people out of there.

And then you'll whine about it.
It may not be good news, some have been killed. I worked out there a few times, but not at the remote oil fields themselves. It was like living in a military compound, high walls all round. Bored to death after a week.

I think Obama's strategy is to ignore terrorism and pretend it's not happening. He got away with it in Benghazi. Why not try it again? If a tree falls in the forest, and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound? For most people, if it's not covered by MSM, it's not real. They just filter out Fox News and talk radio.
Joe you are a fucking idiot blaming someone for something that has no bearing on him at all.Move to the head of the dumber than fuck class.

I was thinking that we had killed OBL, were droning the shit out of terrorists in Afghanistan and Pakistan and were still running combat patrols in Afghanistan looking for the bad guys. In addition to the work being done by the folks in the CIA, the NSA and countless other US government organizations that let you feed your fat ass and sleep soundly at night without interruption. But, I guess that's just all made-up bullshit and we are going to "ignore terrorism."

What fucking world do you live in? I wonder what the soldiers and Marines in Afghanistan risking their lives every day would think about comments like yours...ignoring terrorism? We are fucking all over terrorism. Fuck you.

You're a knuckle-draggin' idiot.
