Remember the Ben Ghazi hearings?

Four Americans died in the aftermath of the overthrow of Omar Khadafi in Libya. It was mostly a CIA operation and it was busted and four Americans paid the price with their lives.

The Republicans could not stop screaming about it. It's Hillary's fault! Subpoena her and bring her in for questions. Somebody has to answer for the four lives lost. Finally, they brought her in and questioned her for 12 straight hours and she answered every question and made them look weak in the process.

Flash forward. Donald Trump launches an unprovoked attack upon Iran and 14 Americans are killed during the hostilities. Not to mention the war crime of killing 165 young girls in their school.

Crickets. Silence. Hypocrisy.
