You are thinking of General Demsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He made the phone call to Pasrtor Jones, “on his own”.
Maybe he should have doing military planning for rescues of ambassadors—you know, like what we pay him for.
Another perfumed prince.

The military already does much planning for rescues of ambassadors.
Doesn't do much good, though, if they're not allowed to carry-out those plans.
