Here's the regular feed: VoteVets (@votevets) | TwitterI keep getting "page does not exist" when I click that link.
Looks like they deleted the tweet. It was something like: "Hey POTUS, remember all your Angry Tweets about Benghazi, well now you have one on your hands"

Me too.I keep getting "page does not exist" when I click that link.
"The US Embassy in Iraq, a sprawling, $750 million facility housing 5,500 Americans in downtown Baghdad, is under attack. Parts of the compound are in flames, armed and angry locals are roaming the grounds at will, and US personnel have retreated to internally-secure locations. The situation has many Americans wondering: will this turn into "Benghazi 2.0?""

Well, that's certainly a different kind of new years. 82nd DRB has been activated.
Multiple sources are saying 500 paratroopers from Ft Bragg are enroute to Kuwait.
DRF-1 and 2 just got interesting.

Can't like this enough. So tired of having our Marines (and other forces) muzzled. Let them loose then bring them home.
Get it boys. I wonder what brigade is on DRB...
Now saying 750. That's the DRB.
Get some brothers and sisters.

So glad to is president who takes this seriously. It's good to feel... supported.

At least they are finally talking about it, even if misdirected.

I haven't been in Iraq since IR started so I wouldn't know for sure. Last time I was there in '12, all drones and military air was approved by the Iraqis so I imagine there is some form of approval from their gov't.
We haven't heard much out of Madi or Sistani, or even Al-Sadr in the media. It looks like they want us out and are ready to do it legally, but nothing big. Them saying they are willing to use force to get the U.S. out of Iraq is old news....
