What took so long? obama and his minions want to get them killed?
Why? Obama supports his terrorists worldwide.
The democrats have their fingerprints on all 5 of those routs. Saigon 1975, Democrat super majority in congress override Gerald Ford’s veto knowing damn well what would happen. Tehran 1980, thank you Jimmy Carter. Bengazi and Baghdad, thank you 0bama, Hillary!, and John Kerry (who was in Vietnam). There seems to be a pattern.

Two senior intelligence sources, though, told Fox News there is serious concern about how to evacuate other Americans out of Iraq if the situation further deteriorates.
“We need places to land, we need safe and secure airfields,” one source said, noting that the militants are “seizing airfields and they have surface-to-air missiles, which very clearly threatens our pilots and planes if we do go into evacuation mode.”
Sources said “all western diplomats in Iraq are in trouble,” and American allies are scrambling to put together an evacuation plan. Military officials said there are “not a lot of good options.”
