If so, they did not do their job. Fire them all.

Fire their boss.

Before this one, was one Margaret Scobey, another career Foreign Service Officer. She was there from Feb. 2008 until 2011. So it her handiwork with al-Baradei that could bear a little examination.

In May 2011 U.S. President Obama nominated Anne Patterson, a career FSO to be the U.S. Ambassador to Egypt. On June 30, 2011, the United States Senate confirmed Patterson.

Previously President George W. Bush appointed Anne Patterson as the United States Ambassador to Pakistan She served in Pakistan between July 2007 and October 2010.

An additional comment. Culturally, you do not send a woman to be ambassador to a muslim country, even one ostensibly “western” as the former egypt.

Just take note of how little was thought of Madeleine “not too bright” and for that matter H. Clinton.

It was also a woman April Glaspie that gave the wrong impression, apparently to Saddamm that US wouldn’t do anything if he invaded Kuwait- or something like that.
