And 911 under Bush jr...Things happen while people are President...We aren't talking about it being any President's fault that anything happens while they are serving their term.

MacArthur, Patton and Eisenhower were all boots on the ground pointing rifles at their own troops during this event.

I am pointing out that troops attacking their own troops is not a new thing.
