Anyone who preaches that all American Embassies, consulates, bases, or offices in foreign countries should be absolutely safe is a whack job.
Those who try to politicize an international tragedy are scum bags.

Truth is , nowhere is absolutely safe from a terrorist attack.
Not even New York City (as 9-11 taught us), much less some 3rd World Embassy or Consulate.
Not only CAN it happen,
it WILL happen again as long as the USA is adamant about making new enemies every single day.
