It's tragic that these 4 men died, and everyone in the Nation is saddened by it.Anyone here actually READ the memo from Stevens instead of taking FOX's word for what it says Stevens said?
Tell us in your own words C4A...then explain it to these men!
It's tragic to see any of our peeps be killed in this manner, just as tragic as it was to see all of our peeps die in the 9/11 attack....it's a deep in the gut feeling of sorrow.
In hind sight, could we have somehow done better than what we did....? One can only hope, that we could have....that there would be something that we can learn, that would prevent other tragedies like this from happening...
But life just doesn't seem to work that way, and we repeat our short comings over and over again, at least it seems that way...
After Pearl Harbor, the saying NEVER AGAIN became popular speak.... (never again will we have our guard down and let ourselves be attacked on our own soil)
Yet a handful of decades later, we have our intelligence fail us again and have the 9/11 attacks on our soil, we were gob smacked again....as the Brits would say.
I think our Intelligence could have failed us again. Not intentionally, not by any kind of devious plan...
but I don't know this for certain, it is just speculating from a hind sight view....with little or no actual facts to base it on.
One thing I do know, is no way in hell, if I were in charge of this Nation, would I have blasted over world wide television that our intelligence failed, so that our enemies could hear and gloat or feel empowered to plan new events...
