The US Embassy in Cairo was taken over by islamic militants. Preliminary reports indicate that a number of Embassy employees are being held hostage, including Ambassador Margaret Scobey and her family.
The Press Secretary for the Egyptian government asserts that the embassy is secure and the embassy staff is perfectly safe.
However our efforts to directly contact the embassy have been unsuccessful.
Sources at the State Department, speaking under conditions of anonymity, tell GNN that secure communications to the Embassy are also down. "It's like Iran all over again" the source said, referring to the Carter era take over of of the embassy in Terran.

But that's just my opinion. Carry on.
If only there were a Reagan waiting in the wings.
It wasn’t satire as much as a warning.
Also a spotlight on just how impotent and incompetent the current occupier of the White House is.
Just for a moment imagine that the embassy really is taken over. What would Obama do? Feel free to speculate, but remember that Carter gave us the Ayatollahs and ultimately an atomic Iran.
A few of the hostages say that Ahmadinejad was one of the hostage takers. What gift that keeps on giving could Obama give us?
He’s no Reagan, but I think Bolton would make a fine president.
History repeats, I wouldn’t be surprised
Televised speech from the White House: "The United States would see a takeover of our embassy as an act of war. We've been there before and we will handle the situation differently this time. If our diplomats are taken hostage, we will start the clock. If their freedom is not restored within 24 hours, we will destroy Cairo with a large nuclear weapon, killing our diplomats, as well as a million Muslims. What we are saying is that the Egyptian governmet's HIGHEST priority is the safety of our diplomats. Goodnight.
Only because all we learn from it is names and dates, never whys and hows.
"Ebony and Ivory, we're together in perfect harmony......"
Hmmm. Add something like: we will not allow you to use our diplomats as pawns.
I noticed Joe Biden was in charge today, making statements.
Maybe Obamah can call upon Bill Clinton again, presidenting is hard work!
You’d rather have Obama in charge than Biden?
Seriously???
Biden vs Obamah, dumb and dumberer. Hummmm
Careful, you “might” take out some muslim “holy” site.
Seriously though, I’d think we have to consider Mecca. You got an hour to get live coverage of their release, while our Israeli allies will be landing on the roof to pick them up, or from now until the end of time (a whole lot sooner for some of you than others), you “people” will be praying to an inhospitable hole in the ground.
Now if we have to nuke Mecca, the whole BS about how we’re not at war with Islam goes out the window, so hit the rest of their big sites at the same time. Probably conventional for the rest of them, unless there are any others that are so “special” they need the symbolism that can only truly be expressed with fissionable material in small quantities but smaller volumes.
We could a lot of them with drones operated from the USA. Sell tickets to operate them, and let the general population have some fun, while raising some cash for the DoD. I’ll kick in for a ticket for the child of one of our troops killed in action by these scum, along with a copy of Ender’s Game for when he’s a little older.
Oh, and Iran, we’re coming in to inspect for nukes, and we’re not going to find any. Whether that’s because you removed them voluntarily or because of a pre-inspection ICBM site visit is up to you.
Just one day of being everything they accuse us of is all I’m asking.
It's a reasonable request.
