You bring up a great point. Anyone in Foreign Service has to know after the Administration’s reaction in Benghazi (was to cover their hide first and foremost), that they (Foreign Service personel) are sacrificial lambs. What happened to the four Americans could happen to them. They are considered “bumps in the road” and EX-PEN-DA (duh!)-BLE.

Not to mention current Armed Forces who would question Panettas comment of
“ we don’t send forces unless we know what we are dealing with”
Oh ya. Forgot about that statement. “Bumps in the road.”
