What is disturbing is this -

This is a foreign country. Not our "home turf".

And the President was easily and very quickly separated from all of his guards. These Latin nations have a tradition of violent attacks on heads of state. They know how to do it.

And the SS let itself be separated, neutralized, and distracted.

Watch the video. The huge crowd of photogs, military, and obvious hangers on should NEVER have been allowed near GWB as he gets out of his limo. His head of detail should have stopped the exit from the limo when he SAW that mess and made them use another entrance.

What a disaster - just barely avoided.

Is the video available on the web? Do you have a link?

I would appreciate it, if you would post it.

It's not clear from this article, but from others online there were at least 3 other agents with Bush. So he was not separated from all of his guards.

The incident is concerning, but there were apparently some USSS on the inside of the room, and Bush wasn't completely separated from protection.
