But they’re from North-Western Africa, not the Middle East.
I said some muslims.. if you dont despise most/many muslims you dont have your head screwed on right.. same with them..
The Battling Boys of Benghazi
It wasn’t our job, but we answered the call,
fought to the consulate and scaled the wall.
We pulled twenty countrymen from the jaws of fate,
led them to safety and stood at the gate.
Just the two of us, and foes by the score,
but we stood fast to bar the door.
Three calls for reinforcement, but all were denied,
so we fought and we fought and we fought till we died.
We gave our all for our Uncle Sam
but Barack Obama didn’t give a damn
just two dead SEALs who carried the load
no thanks to us - we were just “bumps in the road.”

I have heard the author is an anonymous US Marine, but I cannot verify that. Can you help?
