Krauthammer Suggested That "Under Other Presidents, Particularly Bush," "There Was No Storming Of The U.S. Embassy In Cairo." During the September 13 edition of Fox News' Special Report, as images related to the attack on the U.S. Embassy in Cairo played, Fox News contributor Charles Krauthammer said: "What we're seeing on the screen is the meltdown, the collapse of the Obama policy on the Muslim world."
