Libyan pool party

Shorthand for a potential fiasco in general that may happen in the future, although primarily aimed at fiascoes in foreign policy action. Usually something to keep an eye on so it doesn't escalate. Refers to the celebration by Libyan gunmen after they took an "American diplomatic compound", as mentioned on HBO's "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver".

"We'd better be careful how we leave Afghanistan, or it could turn into a total Libyan pool party over there."
