US presses Iraq to protect American personnel after embassy attack: ‘There will be no Benghazis’
"A U.S. defense official told Fox News that 100 Marines are being sent to the embassy to bolster security. A U.S. Apache helicopter gunship also flew over the embassy and dropped flares in a “show of force,” attempting to disperse the crowd. Defense Secretary Mark Esper later confirmed additional forces are being sent."
.....not days or weeks from now - immediately.
An Apache gunship immediately responded, conducted a 'SoF' by dropping flares, scattering some of the crowd...and it ended.
The Trump administration did not have prior warning this was going to happen, did not make the decision to deny them additional security...dozens of times...and did not vow to arrest American citizens for exercising their Constitutional rights. The President blamed those who conducted the attack and put the Iraqi govt on notice.
The FBI is not being sent over to investigate. 100 US Marines are going in to secure, fortify, and protect the US facility.
...and no Americans were killed.
Oorah!
