Yeah...didn't happen in Boston Harbor though did it. Do you know what our military was doing in Yemen besides being sitting ducks.

So you think the Navy should stay tied up in American harbors?

That's true, he would close all overseas bases, including all in the middle east, so by definition attacks on our forces in the mideast and elsewhere would end. As to Pearl Harbor, he's already minimized 9/11 as only a month of highway deaths. Pearl Harbor was only a month of 1941 deaths.

And how about the one you failed to mention. The killing of over 300 Marines in the barracks bombing in Beirut. How did that play out? Did Ronald Reagan say "ok people we are engaged in a world wide war on terror" Prepare to surrender your civil liberties".

Or did he say...

Middle Eastern politics are insane and we have no right to sacrifice our soldiers by putting them between these barbaric factions.

He left Lebanon and withdrew ALL our troops.

period.

So do you consider Reagan to have been a cut and run coward or do you consider him to be a realist?
