What I see is:
While they were having a Evacuation Clint Eastwood Cluster F___ moment. They badly needed Media Deflection, went with a Terrorist Drone Strike and got the needed deflection.

Right or Wrong
Their Drone strike has in fact deflected the main attention away from, what we are hearing could be 500+ American citizens left behind.

POLITICAL REASONING
Which is the American voter more likely to forgiven and forget come election?

5,000 American left behind?
Or a mistaken target Terrorist Drone strike ?

Classic deflection and cover for action:

A two-minute clip by Mark Basseley Youssef, whose video 'Innocence of Muslims' aired on Egyptian television on Sep. 9, and an attack on the U.S. embassy in Benghazi, Libya occurred two days later.

Youssef was of course to blame.

#5 An investigation conducted by The New York Times indicates that what President Joe Biden’s commanders thought was a man loading bombs into a car was instead Zemari Ahmadi putting canisters of water into his vehicle.

Confirmation bias

#8 Yes, anyone who feels that was"t a deliberate attempt at media diversion is asleep at the switch.
