CJ, > It was chosen because it risked fewer lives.

All you needed to do was stop there.

Clinton's entire policy after "Black Hawk Down" was to risk as few American lives as possible. Hence the Bosnia bombing campaign, which was successful but was close to becoming a failure due to Clinton getting nervous over all the collateral damage. (Remember the Chinese embassy?)

I'm not going to condemn Clinton over that. "Coulda shoulda woulda" is all too easy to ask after the fact. But I will condemn Clinton for the way he is trying to revise history, all because he is catering to those who continue to ask "coulda shoulda woulda."

Because the truth, while acceptable to me, is a tougher political sell than the lies he pathologically creates for the benefit of Clinton Inc.
