Learn The Lesson of Beirut
Suffering from a 101-degree fever, I was too sick and too tired to notice that as our plane entered Beirut airspace we had come under small-weapons fire from the ground. I was a young reporter sent by ABC's San Francisco news radio station to cover the horrific bombing of the U.S. Marine barracks by Islamic terrorists - 241 U.S. Service members, most of them Marines, had fallen victim to the hardened disciples of the so-called "Religion of Peace."- Wednesday, October 23, 2013
