Since the article uses the comparison that Bush is the next Reagan...
I would think that for those that hate his stance, would REALLY see the comparison, correct?
We should heed the words of Ronald Reagan about his experience with a needless and mistaken military occupation of Lebanon. Sending troops into Lebanon seemed like a good idea in 1983, but in 1990 President Reagan said this in his memoirs:
"
we did not appreciate fully enough the depth of the hatred and complexity of the problems that made the Middle East such a jungle
In the weeks immediately after the bombing, I believed the last thing we should do was turn tail and leave
yet, the irrationality of Middle Eastern politics forced us to rethink our policy there."
