A perfect example of politic involvement in war and the usual end result...failure. We need to go back to the old way of fighting wars. We want to be the good guys and win the hearts and minds of people. We go in and “liberate” a people, pay to rebuild their societies, then stay because they can’t handle their own security. This costs way too much in blood and money, then they turn on us. Time to throw away liberation, and go in as conquerors. We get attacked...annihilate the enemy, then leave and let the survivors figure it out. Sooner or later, if it happens enough times, people will leave us alone. They’re not worth liberating when they don’t even know what freedom means and would rather have the mullahs suppress them.

I don’t get it. “Storming” an embassy means entering it - and will be treated as an invasion where the marines can eliminate with extreme prejudice.

From what I can tell, the mob is outside and never even attempted to enter. As a result, the US forces never shot at them.

Now the Iraqi government, on the other hand, has a lot of explaining to do - where the heck are their forces preventing this very thing from happening to the US embassy?

I’m sure the American response to this betrayal is going to be brutal - Trump isn’t a weak-wristed Obama.

Note well that without Obama and Hillary Clinton being in charge, this didn’t end up like Bengazi. Democrats can’t run things. Remember the Iranian embassy under Carter?
