Reagan is partly to blame for Islamic militancy since he tucked his tail and ran after the barracks bombing.

No, he is not partly to blame for Islamic militancy. Jimmy Carter, however, did a great job putting us in their sights.

Reagan was correct to not let that shift his global operations, a weaker man would have responded emotionally and allowed it to change his plan.

Are you aware that as the bomb went off, an invasion of Grenada was already taking place and that American forces were already landing and in ground combat within 47 hours of that bombing?

Reagan fought and defeated the Soviet empire. What have you done? If you want to blame anyone for the rise of radical Islam blame Jimmy C.
