I see that as different. In war, shit happens. In Beirut, they bombed our barracks unexpectedly and Reagan withdrew. He didn’t leave his men there to fight on their own or withhold requests for support. Nor did he initiate a propaganda campaign to defer responsibility.
Again, I understand. Look at all the upset at Obama over the Iranians catching our two small Boats who were inside Iran’s Waters.
If a Bombing like Beirut happened under a Democrat President, we would all be going ballistic.
Not trying to be contrary.
