In memory of Ambassador Chris Stevens and حاميها حراميها part threeReader comment on item: Did the "Innocence of Muslims" Video Play a Role in the Benghazi Attack? Submitted by dhimmi no more (United States), Feb 1, 2014 at 08:07 Sara wrote Thanks again, DNM. Hi Sara However, my read is that the FEB17 guys are denying that they helped but are more interested in making the point (by saying they refused to engage them) that that they failed to protect the embassy, no? in other words, its more important for them to publicly state that they werent attacking the shabab than to argue that they were doing their job defending the embassy Here is the most important part of the text (the rest is really the usual Islamic formulas) تنفي اكتيبة شهداء 17 فبراير نفيا قاطعا حدوث اى مواجهه بينها وبين الشباب المقتحم للسفارة And here is the traslation: The martyrs of Feb 17 battalion absolutely denies any confrontation between it (Feb 17) and the youth that invaded the embassy I read this as: 1. Members of Feb 17 were present during the attack but in what capacity we really do not know 2. The attack was conducted by youth unknown and unrelated to the Feb 17 battalion 3. Members of the Feb 17 did not confront the attackers Now you draw your own conclusions (google translate) In the name of God the Merciful I hope I helped Note: Opinions expressed in comments are those of the authors alone and not necessarily those of Daniel Pipes.
