Obama acting unilaterally?!
What happened to the UN? NATO?

What has not been reported is that NASA was deployed there last week to assure the Egyptian populace that the Muslim Brotherhood is OK because they represent a long line of Muslim scientists and scholars.

Just a guess here....
Evacuate US citizens because the administration knows the MB is going to be in charge pretty darn soon?

It’s to assist with evacuation, just the same as other governments do with their citizens.
The hysteria sometimes is annoying.

"Obama Deploys Multiple Platoons of Targets, Hostages, Support for Muslim Brothers-in-da-hood."
Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

Unless this article is on CNN, MSNBC, FOX and the like, I agree with the Mods, it's better to pull the article.
However, if this ended up on Democratic Underground then we might as well post it here because the info is already out there. Kinda like someone posting Prince Harry's movements in Afghanistan.

I seem to remember the events that happened in Beirut.

Battalions are routinely designated as “ACB”s. This only means that those battalions, or parts of those battalions, are prepared to deploy very quickly for “emergency” situations such as Katrina, the oil spill, the Haiti earthquake, etc. They may also be used to secure airfields in the event of evacuations in hostile areas, and this may be what some Marine units will be doing.
The kinds of notifications noted in this story are normal, and so are the rumors from “the Lance Corporal underground” that follow. I have heard from a good source that in this case the rumors of actual deployment for some battalions, including some that have recently returned from Afghanistan, are legit.
To: Fennie
We're keeping these people anonymous because both would get in trouble for sharing this information with the press. Then it should be shared.

Okay, Carter sent in Marines too into Iran in '79. As I recall that didn't turn out so well. Especially since Oblunder is following Carter's footsteps so closely.
