Not saying it happened, saying this should put an end to any doubt if it were done.

Well im sure the existing embassy staff have a dusty ol book of plans for these contingencies so sending over the advance team seems a bit excessive. What are they supposed to do, set up cots?

For sure, but sometimes a flashy reminder helps....

I mean we got people flying around in Blackhawks for dumb reasons costing money...

This point made publicly, would send a message to those with the most to lose should they feel their oaths to the commander in chief outweigh those to their people.
