2006-10-24
I didn't see this yesterday, but here is the Memorial website, with the names of those killed there.
Here is the french website dedicaced to the 58 french paratroopers killed 20 seconds after that first blast. 23 years later, french paras are protecting the killers, thanks to the Arab Policy.

#1  RIP to the Marines and others slaughered that night.

Man, I wish the Reagan admin had ignored the people trying to make Beirut "Reagan's Vietnam" and responded to that bombing in Lebanon instead of in Grenada. One of an awful lot of opportunities missed over the last 30 years to turn the tide against the Islamists.
