People have a misconception that once the shooting starts all you have to do is send in the Marines and an hour later it’s all over. It doesn’t work that way. There’s intelligence that has to be gathered. If modern warfare has taught us anything, it’s that when you rush in to assist, often the assist becomes the larger battle itself.
Would we want Hillary Clinton as secretary of state to make tactical decisions in the field? No. She’s not equipped. There are people on staff who make those decisions. I understand a lot of people have it in for her, but I don’t think the Benghazi furor is fair, especially when you take into consideration that there were countless U.S. ambassadors killed before Benghazi and tragically, in the dangerous world we live in, there will probably be more targeted in the years to come.
