Sure you can strike a column of Sunni insurgents forming a convoy on the highway or out in the open, but once they get into the towns and villages and Baghdad itself, you've got a grappling situation. That's when you need the Special Forces to move in. Apparently there are over 5,000 personnel to evacuate from Baghdad and a protection force of just 250 U.S. soldiers. That's not nearly enough to guard such a large embassy compound - the evacuation may have already started. If the Americans don't get safely there's going to be hell to pay in Washington D.C. "The fall of the Iraqi cities of Fallujah, Tikrit, Mosul and Tel Afar, and the establishment of terrorist safe havens across a large swath of the Arab world, present a strategic threat to the security of the United States. Mr. Obama's actions—before and after ISIS's recent advances in Iraq—have the effect of increasing that threat."
