Whether Tripoli, Cairo or Bengazi.,, I have been wondering all day “where were the devil dogs” ?

My only conclusion is that they were ordered to stand down OR were scaled back as part of our touchy feely Arab spring response.

No self respecting Marine (IMHO) would have been over run unless ordered to do so. (I know, that doesnt make sense either)

There were no Marines there... only Stevens and three other Americans. One was a State Department Security Officer. Tonight there are 50 Marines there securing and doing whatever it is that they need to do. Two Destroyers are sailing off shore in support. Way late IMHO. How can a US EMBASSY in a WAR ZONE be left UNGUARDED BY ANYONE OTHER THAN libyan MILITARY OPERATIVES THAT AIDED THE TERRORISTS?

With the rules of engagement our military have been handcuffed with, I hope they weren't there. They would have been set up for massacre if they followed orders I am afraid.
