The State Department announced on Sunday that it would be increasing security at the U.S. embassy in Baghdad due to the recent violence in northern Iraq.
“The Embassy of the United States in Baghdad remains open and will continue to engage daily with Iraqis and their elected leaders – supporting them as they strengthen Iraq’s constitutional processes and defend themselves from imminent threats,” State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki said in a statement. “Some additional U.S. government security personnel will be added to the staff in Baghdad; other staff will be temporarily relocated – both to our Consulate Generals in Basra and Erbil and to the Iraq Support Unit in Amman.”
Maybe what they ought to do is close the embassy.
I hope they’re beefing up the helipad on the roof.
And cc’ing the entire GOP leadership with the funding requests.
Coming soon to FoxNews: Bergdadghazi!!
We can blame this all on Dick Cheney, Condoleeza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld and that knob; Darryl Worley.
Yeah, Saddam Hussein was behind 9-11, was allied with al Qaeda, had weapons of mass destruction, purchased uranium from Niger…NOT!!!
