Okay, so lets put it another way, you have a squad of soldiers, being pinned by a sniper, the squad ask for backup, but not knowing where the sniper is, every single person that comes to help would be shot.
So you would risk killing multiple people, to save 4...sure you could have sent in a drone with missiles, or a gunship that could have easily wiped out the situation, but at what collaretal damage? Civilians, children, women, do you know what the surrounding situation is? Lets say they did send in a drone to blow up the attacking force, and then found out that 100 civilians died, women and children, to save 4 Americans, then you would all be calling Obama a child killer, and then every single US post in the Middle east would be at risk, and the situation would have gone from one organized attack, to an entire region blowing up, risking every single soldier and official.
No matter the outcome, the Republicans would find some way to blame the Administration.
It was a bad situation, no matter which direction it went, there would not have been a good outcome, and now making it political, is making it worse for the 4 that did die, and their families.
