If Baghdad falls and American lives are lost, Hillary Clinton is going
to have a lot of explaining to do if and when she runs for U.S.
President. She voted in favor of invading Iraq - she and Obama are going
to own it because they failed to protect the Americans staffing the U.S.
Embassy in Baghdad. Hillary Clinton still has not explained why she
failed to protect the diplomatic compound in Benghazi. Go figure.
The Obama Presidency has been a disaster - an incompetent administration
so wrong about so much. And now his fancy rhetoric has come crashing
down and we are left facing the reality. America's enemies are not
receding, they are on the march to take over Iraq's largest oil field
and attacking Baghdad itself. The consequences of this failure in
Washington foreign policy is going to be monumental for the Democratic
Party in the next election.

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."
