Democrats do not comprehend the need to defend our embassies.
Actually a lot of people do not get it
Sean Hannity for instance in his spiel states Americans were killed in Benghazi.
Well not exactly. Literally, yes.
They were Americans working for the US in-country. they were there because they were working for us. They therefore require security. The ambassador is the US government representative in his/her assigned foreign country. For the locals to kill him is extremely significant some say an act of war.
“Democrats do not comprehend the need to defend our embassies.”
They would if they thought they could get political mileage out of it. Then they would be frothing at the mouth.
But Benghazi was clearly the response by crazies in Libya to a busted covert operation to get US arms to Syrian terrorists. And defending our people was politically inconvenient, given the circumstances.
