Remember, Benghazi is just a phony scandal and stuff
With American diplomats and business people in Erbil suddenly at risk, at the American Consulate and elsewhere, Mr. Obama began a series
of intensive deliberations that resulted, only a day later, in his authorizing airstrikes on the militants, as well as humanitarian airdrops of food and

Looming over that discussion, and the decision to return the United States to a war Mr. Obama had built his political career disparaging, was
the specter of an earlier tragedy: the September 2012 attack on the diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, which killed four Americans,
including Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, and has become a potent symbol of weakness for critics of the president
