which way are the turrets pointed?That's the thing about tanks... one moment the turrets are pointed away from you, then next they are pointed towards you.

"Dont know what that might mean concerning the tanks surrounding the US and UK embassies."
Owing to the fact they haven't done likewise to all the other embassies, I'd say that's a "clue" indicating a bad time for us and the Brits.

Tell the Marines to shoot anyone who comes over or through the fence. The only reason they were able to occupy our embassy in Iran is because they realized our guards weren’t going to start shooting. By the time the guards realized the danger, it was too late.

Its beginning to look a lot like 1979. feign surprise. Yeah, I lived through those days. I hope everyone likes gas lines and even/odd day rules for purchases!

“I’d personally be very grateful if the IDF would help us out.”
Some sort of Entebbe thing? Squads of Israelis flown/choppered-in, added to that mix?
While we’re at it why not just have a huge hog roast on the front lawn of the embassy?

Obama is a lot worse than Carter.Yep, we know for sure that jimmah was not a mooselimb. He was very liberal, almost communist, but he was not a mooselimb.

I tried looking for the US Embassy in Cairo on google earth.
Just comes up with a bunch of hotels. In other words crap.
Tried looking for the street address on a google search. Backdoor method.
Just get a bunch of crap. Some says file not found.
Tried google earth for the US Embassy in London, England, just to check. All kinds of info, including street views.
Pretty easy to spot who your friends are.

The IDF already flew in once today to our embassy staff and (according to my sources) the sky over Eqypt right now is blue and white.
Just get the hell out.

This is similar to 1979 when the Islamic rebels took the US Embassy and held hostages for 444 days We had a clueless peanut farmer for that crisis, now we have a clueless community organizer for this one. The main difference is we have a consistently leftist, CYA press that would never put up a count on the number of days they were being held.
