President Barack Obama has ordered about 350 more troops to Baghdad to protect the U.S. Embassy in the Iraqi capital and is sending top officials to the Middle East to “build a stronger regional partnership” against Islamic State militants, the White House said on Tuesday.
Pentagon Press Secretary Rear Admiral John Kirby added that the move would bring the total number of U.S. military personnel responsible for bolstering diplomatic security in Iraq up to about 820.
Wild Thing’s comment………

Like Billy Joel used to sing…. I guess ObaMao is in a ‘Benghazi state of mind!’…
Or in a YOU TUBE state of mind, eh?
I wonder what their ROE’s are?
