Internal State Department emails appear to show “genuine panic” during last week’s evacuation of the U.S. Embassy in Yemen, Fox News chief intelligence correspondent Catherine Herridge reported exclusively this morning.

After reviewing internal State Department emails, Herridge said that standard procedures to protect sensitive information were not followed during the hasty evacuation from Sana’a.

She described panicked emails circulating at the highest levels of the State Department despite spokeswoman Jen Psaki downplaying the situation at her Feb. 11 briefing. …

Would we evacuate an Embassy in times of calm and feelings of well-being?

“When an embassy evacuates, or does a bug-out, all classified information is wiped and communications are disabled or removed and that did not happen in this case,” Herridge reported.

You’d think a few hundred fully-armed Marines on-site could have provided the time & resources needed for adhering to protocol. Disarming said Marines and sending them home seems ... a poor choice.

Alas, the sheep have rejected the sheepdogs, yet still have no clue what to do when the wolves arrive.

It didn’t happen in Tehran either when Jimmy Carter became politically paralyzed.

Remember the films of the students splicing together shredded documents?

not planned by micro-manager National In-security adviser Susan Rice. These people have to be charged with negligence at the least or releasing classified information. I guess the administration is doing all it can to aid the enemy without breaking the law...

It is beginning to dawn on the State Department types that with Obama at the helm, they stand a good chance of being burned alive in a cage if taken. Panic? I imagine so.
