How about Eisenhower sending the troops to Little Rock to enforce school desecration. Am I wrong here?

Yes, you are wrong!! :) The troops in Little Rock were to support school DESEGREGATION; certainly not desecration.

Eisenhower handwritten note from September 1957:

"Not to enforce integration but to prevent opposition by violence to orders of a court."

Emphasis in original. The court in question was the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
