"At some point it becomes intentional. No? "

Well, I think that's the reflexive reaction any American would have - kind of, "They can't be this incompetent, can they?" reaction.

Yes, I think that they can, and they are that incompetent. Neither Barack Obama or Joe Biden have 5-minutes of management experience between them, not in any area - private or public.

This kind of incompetence is probably not only believable, but is what should have been expected by at least 51% of the country two years ago. Unfortunately, it wasn't. This was supposed to be the "return to competence" administration, in the minds of 57% of the American voting public.

Agreed. Throw in malignant borderline personalities with an incompetence that will redefine stupidity.

I give you credit for thinking they are really that incompetent...

I don’t. If me...a common person...recognize these deceptions...

They are not fooling any other diplomats or countries.

and Pakistan will retaliate...just give it about 6 months.

We just killed another 15 or so in a drone attack...

In 2007 Senator 0bama said he would go after Pakistan...don’t forget that.
