"The assault in the wake of 9/11" It happened in 2012… 11 years later… Will 9/11 forever be the last major event to occur in world history? You might\’ve more accurately said: "In the wake of the US/NATO invasion of Libya…" etc.

There\’s something oddly gratifying about seeing Jim Halpert and Roy Anderson together as spec ops soldiers. Yet, it\’s strange John had no dialogue in this trailer.

Smart marketing going for that red state audience with the American Sniper release date.

I\’m a little surprised they\’re sticking with the long title instead of just 13 HOURS, but Jared is right, the American Sniper slot is good strategy.

I think what they meant was that it was on September 11, 2012. The strike on Benghazi, like the violent protests at the US embassy in Cairo and in other countries, were specifically held on 9/11 in order to gain themselves maximum attention and presumably remind America of our greatest recent tragedy. There isn\’t a direct connection between the terrorists who brought down the twin towers and the ones who attacked Benghazi, but I think it\’s safe to say the latter have been inspired by the destructive power of the former, and they were intentionally drawing a comparison between them.

According to the americans, the only terrorist attack in the world worth talking about is the 9/11. Rest doesn\’t matter.
