I stopped reading after your first sentence, because it was just more partisan bull****.
We've ALWAYS been playing defense. What the hell do you think the Patriot Act, and TSA, and NSA surveillance is all about?
No one, it's stagnate, which is the point. You cannot have infinity war if any one side wins. How else are we to funnel billions of dollars into the companies that support the Republocrats while using fear tactics to keep the People in line, expand powers of government against our rights and privacy, kill off thousands of Americans, and accomplish nothing for the people and everything for the betterment of the aristocracy?
UBL's stated goal was to run us out of Arab lands, he just succeeded.

Tail between our legs is exactly what we did, we bugged out in the face of a superior force.
We did not permanently close our embassy's.
Tell me what you would have preferred.
I would have preferred we hardened our embassies after the Benghazi fiasco and when we got these recent terror threats we battened down the hatches and said "take your best shot". After they took their best shot I would rain Holy Hell on them like we should have done after Benghazi.
So instead of taking security precautions and waiting until the threat has been neutralized we should have turned our embassies (somehow) into fortified outposts and hoped that a truck bomb didn't roll into them? And then if it did we'll just rain holy hell 'on them'? This does not sound like a sound strategy.
Heya Sherman :2wave: Well.....what do you think the Strategy was that was employed by the Brits? Did they close down all their Embassies? Did they close down from doing business throughout an entire region of the world?
They withdrew their staff from Yemen and reduced staff elsewhere. We are a larger target than the British and apparently the threats were rather well developed and specific to us.
it's a tactical move of the game chess.
US will win.
