As for the stupid comparison to Blackwater, there is no moral equivalence.

saden and I don't agree on a lot politically, but I'm certainly in line with his Rules of Engagement.
This was a coordinated attack with insider support (at least it appears so in Libya). Response must be to devastate the groups that coordinated these attacks...wherever they are. If the host country does not support our tactical response.....and/or decide to get in the way....they go down too.
These violent extremists only understand force....nothing else.
