    No need to get into a fight, which could mean a protracted engagement - get in and kill it, then leave.

    I wonder how far in advance this was planned, and if it was factored into the decision to deploy/prepare for deployment the forces sent to reinforce the embassy. Either way, I'm glad they're in place now, as I bet things will get ugly in Baghdad before they get better.
    ...they should have seen that arms in their citizens' hands could not make them tyrants, but that evil orders of government make a city tyrannize. Since they had a good government, they did not have to fear their own arms.

    I’m fairly surprised we did this. That’s a big dick energy move.

    Yup, it's turning out to be POTUS Trump's Benghazi alright, Hmmmm?
    I'm thinking we have enough rebels inside Iran working for us that everyone in the top tier Iranian players are being watched 24/7.
    I'm not surprised.

    All that crap that Iran pulled earlier was not forgotten and the favor returned in spades it seems.
