“Rules of Engagement come to mind.”
President Trump has already asserted the right to defend ourselves...
And that's what this current issue is all about.
Friday Hezbollah rocketed several of our bases and killed an American contractor.
Sunday, Trump had several Hezbollah camps in Iraq and Syria bombed by F-15 Strike Eagles causing MAJOR damage, including killing an Iranian vice commander and blowing up a huge ammo dump.
Monday the Iraqi PM pitched a fit, claiming the USA had no right to do this, that is, defend itself (or at least so strongly).
Tuesday the protesters and storming of the Embassy. Burnt down the Embassy reception center, but did NOT breach the interior defenses..
Wednesday, Marines arrive in force; protesters break camp and leave.
Thursday?
I was talking about a movie where marines, protecting an embassy, fired into an armed crowd of protesters.
