Correct. You don't invade a country because a band of insurgents raided your embassy. Had the Libyan government raided the compound, that would be a different story. I'm all for mounting heavy machine guns on the corners of the embassy buildings. ...or set up some motion detector machine guns in the courtyard like these. Also, this:

Jon Stewart Takes On Conservative Hypocrisy Over Middle Eastern Democracy (VIDEO)
Do these idiots really even listen to themselves? Foreign policies under Bush is good. The same foreign policies under Obama is bad. Morons.

Re: All things Middle East related
I enjoyed Sam Harris' take on the recent Shenanigans from the ME:
Freedom to offend At moments like this, we inevitably hear—from people who don’t know what it’s like to believe in paradise—that religion is just a way of channeling popular unrest. The true source of the problem can be found in the history of western aggression in the region. It is our policies, rather than our freedoms, that they hate. I believe that the future of liberalism—and much else—depends on our overcoming this ruinous self-deception. Religion only works as a pretext for political violence because many millions of people actually believe what they say they believe: that imaginary crimes like blasphemy and apostasy are killing offenses. |

Re: All things Middle East related
So I'm hearing Obama and company had 3 day warning about the uprising in the Middle East and did nothing. Where has this been in the news?

Re: All things Middle East related
Really bad news from the middle east today -
This morning the Muslim Brotherhood sent a warning that if the United States continued meddling in Egypt , Libya , and other potential hot Spots in the Middle East, they intend to cut off America 's supply of 7-11 and Motel 6 managers. If this action does not yield sufficient results, cab drivers will be next, followed by Dell, AT&T and AOL customer service reps. Finally, if all else fails, they have threatened not to send us any more Presidents.
