Or, the plan was for Obama to order a rescue. Either way, it is bad.
The left runs our government like a bad movie screen play. Unfortunately, the muslim brotherhood have tight/close tie-ins in this administration. They could, with the help of this administration (getting rid of American security for the Ambassador and ordering the former SEALS and others to stand down during the attack), have coordinated the attempted kidnapping. With all the radical leftist muslims have to gain by having a radical sympathizing president Obama for 4 more years, I don’t doubt for a second that there are some that would sacrifice themselves to have made him look good militarily.
