Meanwhile, Libyan "Militants" Overrun a Special Forces Base
The Special Forces have been reassigned to a Very Special Forces unit.
Also, they're dead.
Well I don't know if they're dead. I actually expect they fled, like Special Forces do.
Anyway.
The Cavalcade of Awesome Foreign Policy continues.
Militant fighters overran a Libyan special forces base in the eastern city of Benghazi on Tuesday after a battle involving rockets and warplanes that killed at least 30 people.
A special forces officer said they had to abandon their main camp in the southeast of Benghazi after coming under sustained attack from a coalition of Islamist fighters and former rebel militias in the city.
"We have withdrawn from the army base after heavy shelling," Saiqa Special Forces officer Fadel Al-Hassi told Reuters.
...
Benghazi has been at the centre of fighting between special forces and ex-rebel fighters of the Benghazi Shura Council who have joined up with the Ansar al Sharia, a militant Islamist group, residents said.
They joined forces? I'd like to see the videotape that caused that to happen.
I don't even know what to say anymore.
Unfortunately, neither does Barack Obama.
