The Marines were in Lebanon as part of an international peacekeeping force trying to stabilize the country, which had been torn by a civil war between Christians and Muslims.

The Americans were in Lebanon, not to oppress lebanon, like the Islamists, but to keep the peace. This is bad to you? You think that peacekeeping is an awful thing for Americans to do?

You support Islamic murderers over American peacekeepers!

Your type of world, filled with hatred, and envy, and slavery, and ignorance will never win. The peacemakers will win, and your hateful, ignorant, obnoxious, selfish side will lose.

That is the reason why peacekeeping forces have to be broad-based and drawn from various nationalities, possibly under the UN or Arab League.

Iraq will also do a lot better under an Arab/UN peacekeeping coalition. The current strategy of US/UK plus a few folks from unknown island nations will not work.
