Hanson: No, for me the watershed event was when Carter allowed the Iranian hostage situation to go on. Then you had the Hezbollah bombings of the Marines in Khobar Towers...

I believe Dr. Hanson is mixing up Beirut with Saudi Arabia. The Beirut attack was against the Marine Battalion Headquarters at the airport in 1983. Khobar Towers was an attack against an Air Force barracks/dorm in Saudi Arabia in 1996.
