They Have No Shame!
In their desperate fear of a Hillary 2016 run, the Tea Party is yet again attempting to politicize and propagandize the Benghazi Consulate Attack... This time, with photos that they claim to be Stevens being "tortured and crying for help" as Hillary and Obama ignore his pleas for "seven hours".
One such Graphic Meme comes from a website called "Uncle Sam's Misguided Children":
But, a reverse image search reveals that the photo we see could not have been Chris Stevens being tortured being tortured by Muslims because it was taken prior to the year 2009 and the Benghazi Consulate Attack that Stevens died in was a 2012 incident. Stevens reportedly died of smoke inhalation.
Here is a webpage that features the same photo which hasn't been updated since 2009.
Can you put the exact link in which you found this pic on a Tea Party site, not the generic homepage, thank you?
ReplyDeleteI didn't find the picture on a Tea Party site. It was being circulated by individual Tea Party members in a facebook group and the watermark on the image revealed the logo of the USMG Militia Group.
DeleteThere are two similar graphics (memes?) that are being circulated on facebook and twitter (from different sources but with Tea Party connections) which feature the same image which is certifiably NOT Chris Stevens. Basically, this post is just meant to warn people not to be duped by this lie.
DeleteThis is the same tactic used to freak out women struggling with a decision whether or not to terminate a pregnancy. They're pigs. All of them.
DeleteApparently you are confusing this pic with sound evidence of baby tortured in the womb and torn to pieces because of an inconvenience to the mother..factual pictures of what happens to unborn babies when abortion doctors (whom are butchers) start aborting babies in an inhumane manner is not a fabrication or a creation by anyone..Too many pictures are there that paints millions of words of what suffering the unborn babies suffer before their death..So quit being a pig and quit categorizing everything to justify your immoralities!
DeleteYou speak as if you are a golden boy. Would you rather a child suffer for YEARS with an unfit mother? I think 10 seconds would be better. But we are getting off topic.
Deletetell that to the millions of people alive today who were born into less than ideal situations and are quite happy to be alive. What right do YOU have to judge the quality of anyone's life? Your 'sympathy' for them is quite selfish since you'd rather YOU be accomodated than an innocent little baby.
DeleteIf it isn't Stevens, who is it?
DeleteI cannot supply the same 2009 link that the article’s author provided, however here is a link which dates back to March 4, 2005 which shows the same photo. It is from a Channel4.com news site which no longer has the original page available. The link below is from a March 2005 snapshot made of the web page, and the link contains the original Channel4.com link embedded within it. Hope this helps....

Question- Who is this being tortured and prodded??????
ReplyDeleteWho is this man being tortured and prodded. God let his name be known, for Christ sake, Amen
ReplyDeleteI know this is not an image of Stevens.. but do you have the original source of who it is.. or where it came from? Someone won't believe me when I told them it wasn't Stevens.
ReplyDeleteNo. they can't. It's all speculation. They don't want to admit the truth.
DeleteThe pic is from before Nov 2009. That is the date of the article. Steven died in 2012. So how did they get a picture of something that had not happened yet?
DeleteThis pic is from an article 2009 Stevens died in 2012. How did they get the pic from the future?
DeleteAccording to this blog, it seems to be a photo of someone at Bagram Base in Afghanistan... But I cannot confirm that. The only thing I know for certain is that this photo is at least a year older than the attack on Benghazi and therefore it cannot be Chris Stevens on that night.

Usmc is NOT a tea party group we just share some views
ReplyDeleteThis image does have a tag of 2009 on it, and the person promoting it on the webpage sourced above is trying to say it's Americans doing the torture. That alone is laughable since you can clearly see all the cell phones out of these animals recording this torture (and who are in civilian clothes, too). Muslim barbarians gleefully post all these pics and videos of their killings and beheadings all over their websites and rejoice over them. However, there are other photos that are definitely of Stevens and again the cell phones are out in force. The idea that he died of 'smoke inhalation' is again laughable as the blood and holes in his body show from the one photo that is rarely seen in our PC press. Here's the link to it: http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://friendsofsyria.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/548201_281732261942141_1827171151_n.jpg%3Fw%3D640%26h%3D249&imgrefurl=http://www.sodahead.com/united-states/ambassador-stevens-tortured-photos-latest-photo-from-arab-media-warning-very-graphic/question-3291357/&h=250&w=640&sz=39&tbnid=vgdeHvp-GEsDLM:&tbnh=90&tbnw=230&zoom=1&usg=__kX-UJzFbAgpIclJA9mkH3J6cPus=&docid=xtuZ2YvRDQPY0M&sa=X&ei=Z-drUpiBFarqyQHOlICYDQ&ved=0CE0Q9QEwBw

After a few minutes of searching on TinEye with followup on The Internet Archive, I was able to track down a reference to the same image (before text was added) dating back to March 4th, 2005. That’s the date the Internet Archive produced the snapshot below, by the way, not the date the photo was first posted. The Channel4.com website no longer contains the image (the original link is embedded in the link bellow). The link below refers to when it was made a part of The Internet Archive.
ReplyDeleteSupposedly, this is a photo of a man being tortured by Argentinian officials in the 1980s. I cannot comment on the truth of that, but the March 4 2005 date in which this image was captured seems to be quite irrefutable.

It's not the date on the digital camera... It's the date that it appeared online... Which was well before the Benghazi attack. So unless you suspect that the entire internet and google and history are all conspiring together in this supposed "cover up", this is CLEARLY NOT a photo of Chris Stevens... Even his family would confirm that it is not him... But no amount of facts or evidence will ever be good enough for you, will it?
