looks like somalia will be the next to go

[TheChosenOne]

with the whole pirate thing that went down and now on the news they just said that a us congress man's plane was fired upon at the somalia airport.

with the pirates saying that they are going to get back at the us for killing 3 of there members and there is no orginazed goverment over there and the pirates running the show over there it makes sense to invade. i support it.

we need the world's help.

what do u think.

Do they have any resources the control of which would kickstart America's economy back into shape? If so the good ole US of A will be carpet bombing them before the end of the month.

But if as I suspect its a backwards, dry dusty hellhole with nothing more than flies and refugees then America will stay well away.

I think they should enforce a NO BOATING ZONE in somalian seas for a moment. Just like no fly zone in most part of Irag and Afghanistan.

Yes, especially since historically the West has done such a good job in taking over countries and then turing them into peaceful, well run democracies.

On the bright side if they did go in we might see a sequel to the greatest war film ever made Black Hawk Down

Invading would be a bad idea. There is no govt/mvmt/indigineous force to support. Very little infrastructure. There would be no REAL international support on it. We really have to give our military more focused missions in the future. This is a black hole of a situation. Not sure what the right answer is but any type of protracted situation with ground troops would be a bad idea. Maybe some sort of naval firebase on the coast that can patrol the area? I'm not all that familiar with what type of capabilities the Navy has in this regard.

I heard that movie was based on true to life story. US troops made too many tactical errors. They were outgunned and should've tripled their manpower. Lack of reconnaissance to begin with and theydidn't really secure the perimeter target area that well. They put themselves in desperate situation.

If Clinton had green lighted an AC130 there never would have been a movie. If you are really interested read the book for information, but the movie is entertaining.
