I don’t know about Yemen falling apart. They just kicked the United States of America’s ass and sent our U.S. Marines running. Thanks Barry! You cowardly, chickensh*t Kenyan moth.........!

“All crew served weapons were destroyed at the embassy prior to movement. None of them were ‘handed over’ in any way to anyone.”.....

Why would odumbo leave these terrorist “used” weapons when they could get the latest and greatest in large numbers from him with a “Well Wishes” card attached?

I do not understand why the Marines had to destroy their guns? What would’ve happened if they said, “No, we need them to stay alive!” and took their weapons with them?

They destroyed only heavy weapons. Small arms that were carried on their person were turned over only at the airport as they could not board the commercial airline used to allow them to leave.

As a former Marine, this sickens me.
These orders should never have been given.
We came in with weapons, we leave with weapons.

Theses guys could have been slaughtered at the airport.
Another bad decision by our “state” department/prez.

I’m not worried, drones flown from the CVD Dunn will target and cripple the commanders of the uprising in short order

“#Marine Corps says Marines’ weapons were “rendered inoperable””

???

They should have had the ammo emptied into those fools first, then destroyed if need be.

That’s taxpayers dollars that were left ruined in this retreat. We paid for those things to shoot at people and break things!

We’ve just recreated Afghanistan, 1999. With much more access to technology and much closer to home.

Still doesn’t seem like a good idea to me. Feel like our guys were left defenseless at the airport.
