No, it's not OK for Obama to be doing that.
But Stevens is a hired hand who, so far as he knows, is executing approved U.S. government policy -- which, as Ambassador, is his job. He has no way of knowing that it's a rogue operation that Congress hasn't approved.
Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty were in exactly the same position as Stevens -- and surely you're not happy they're dead.
Stevens was an appointed ambassador. He knew what he was doing and, assuming he was not sociopathic or brain dead, he should have known that what he was doing was wrong. That is why I said he didn’t deserve the courage and sacrifice of Doherty, Smith, and Woods. Sometimes good people do their duty and die - only for us to find out that they had been dragooned into a bad cause.
We have been on the wrong side of this from the beginning. We should been helping Daffy, Mubarak, and Assad crush “Arab Spring.” Instead, we’re furthering bin Laden’s goal of deposing secular leaders in Islamic countries.
