Clinton's "do-nothing" policy did nothing but invite the terrorists back. Jimmy Carter, I think, had a lot to do with many of these ME problems. I wonder how things would be different in that part of the world today (especially in Iran) if Jimmy Carter lost against Ford.
Oh, I agree---I didn't mean that Clinton was the ONLY reason, or the first.
Jimmy Carter's handling of Iran, I also think was the first, then when Reagan didn't fight back in Lebanon..
Some have said...and I tend to agree...that Vietnam was event that gave the Islamofascists the proof they needed, that the USA could be defeated.
