I hate to bring this up but I was watching President Obama eulogize the victims of the Benghazi embassy attack and he kept repeating that "there is no greater love than when someone is willing to lay down their life for someone else." We don't know the circumstances of each of the four deaths but President Obama made is clear that he is talking about government service to whatever cause as "the laying down of life". I respectfully disagree. Serving your country is a privilege and an honor. There are times that you have to risk your life for a mission or to an end. I think there is a great difference between braving enemy fire, and knowing the immediate risk, to save lives as opposed to someone who is going to a hostile area with assurances that they are protected.
I do not criticize these four heros who did die for their mission but I find the words hollow that come from the President. Just as he promises "justice" for their deaths. I believe that that justice must include any failure to prepare for, what is becoming obvious, a known possibility of attack. This should include any and all directives issues by the State Department and executive branch that affected security.
It is a sad day for all of us and things seem to be getting worse in the Middle East. Now go ahead and release the jackals amongst us.
