I got the crazy notion from the US Department of Defense.
They made the call because the troops weren't equipped for combat and there was concern about additional threats at the actual embassy. I've only said this about 5 times now...
It's pretty sad. You want to attack my lack of combat experience when all I'm doing is relaying what the military leadership has already said. Also, as a numbers guy I'd think you would have a basic understanding of budgeting.
For all the beotching you guys do about manipulation by the media it's astounding how eagerly you lap it up.
