Going in with such a light force reeks of Foggy Bottom involvement and/or a political calculation at the embassy to let the Libyans take the lead. Also reminiscent of Clinton not allowing tanks in Somalia. What a FUBAR!

Not only did Clinton not allow tanks in Mogadishu, he didn’t let the AC130s work either....it was all Little Birds and Blackhawks overhead.....but the 160th guys in the Little Birds killed a pile of skinnies.
