SAVAGES: Did Libyan Mob Sodomize U.S. Ambassador Before Killing Him?
This report is so shocking that it seems impossible: According to one unconfirmed Arab-language account from a Libyan news agency ( http://www.tayyar.org/Tayyar/News/PoliticalNews/ar-LB/usa-killed-lybia-zek-970.htm ), citing the French agency AFP, “the U.S. ambassador to Libya was raped sexually before killing by gunmen who stormed the embassy building in Benghazi.” It appears that the first English version of this account was published last night at the NOPC blog ( http://www.nopcradio.com/nopc-news/news/67-ambassador-stevens-was-raped-before-he-was-killed.html ), then made its way to I Own the World ( http://iowntheworld.com/blog/?p=149468 ), was picked up by Riehl World News ( http://riehlworldview.com/2012/09/report-claims-murdered-u-s-ambassador-to-libya-christopher-stevens-was-raped.html ), and then reported at the Washington Times by Kerry Picket ( http://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/watercooler/2012/sep/13/picket-report-murdered-us-ambassador-libya-reporte/ ).
My apologies in advance if I’ve gotten the sequence of events in any way confused. I learned of it via a Tweet from Michelle Malkin (https://twitter.com/michellemalkin/status/246101916487135232 ), and wish to emphasize — as Picket did in an update — that this is an unconfirmed report. Obviously a mob that would attack our consulate and kill four Americans is capable of anything, but we do not yet have confirmation that this reported atrocity actually happened.
Last November, journalist Mona Eltahawy described being sexually assaulted by Egyptian security forces after she was detained in Cairo, prompting me to remark:
A few weeks ago, discussing Libya on Red Eye, Kevin Williamson used the phrase “desert savages,” which is politically incorrect, but when we see savagery like this, who can say it isn’t also accurate?
The question remains valid, for obvious reasons.
UPDATE: One of the things about liberal bias is how it creates a bizarre disproportion in attitudes toward events. While mobs of enraged Muslims are now besieging U.S. embassies worldwide — in Yemen and elsewhere — the liberal media continues to unblinkingly accept the administration’s assertion that the real problem is not Islamic thuggery, but rather an obscure anti-Islamic video that no one in American had even heard about until Tuesday. Political correctoids are more offended by Kevin Williamson’s “desert savages” description of Libyans than they are by actual Libyan savagery. And we must remember, of course, that political correctness is ultimately about politics:
Which is more offensive to media: Libyan mob killing U.S. ambassador or Romney criticizing Obama? lonelyconservative.com/2012/09/romney
