What should the US military response be, if any, to the situation in Libya and the rest of the Middle East?
In the aftermath of Wednesday's attacks that killed three American diplomats in Benghazi, the U.S. has sent warships to the coast off of Libya and deployed Marines to Tripoli.

Make sure the embassy's are well protected and ride the storm. With the removal of almost every dictator in the region, the people are now loose to protest and actually participate in freedom. They are not used to it. Give them time. The US burnt the South to the ground during the civil war.
Give them time to adjust to democracy and freedom. We'll all be better off.

leave crowd control to respective police/security forces where there's unrest. moving ships into the area where a hit job had taken place seems like overkill... like taking a sledge hammer to a wasp.

the US military should get out of Libya and out of any other foreign country it is occupying in the name of corporatism and stop meddling in everyone else's business and start finding solutions for the american people.

The actions were committed by individuals, likely for their own reasons. A crime happened, so handle it like any crime - find the criminals & prosecute them. (Sld have done this with 9/11 criminals.)
