gags Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 Good. We should kill these guys whenever and whereever we can locate them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spano Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 I think it would be wise for the administration to announce publicly the purpose and results of such strikes, rather than let them be reported by the BBC as if they were supposed to be a secret. We should be advertising our willingness and intent to kill terrorists wherever they happen to be. This is not to say I don't approve of strikes like this, but Bush could do a better job of marketing them. On second thought, I guess that would presuppose a certain level of moral certitude. The hesitant "War" on terror continues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkWaters Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 I admire the swift response to Al Qaeda's calling on their forces in Somalia to engage Ethiopian troops. According to the Washington Post, the Chief of Staff for the Prime Minister of Somalia said: We gave permission for actions that are more than airstrikes. Whatever it means to rout these people out, we have given (the Bush Administration) permission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wrath Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 (edited) We're conducting military operations in Somalia? Man, not having internet and TV for 2 weeks really threw me out of the loop. Edited January 11, 2007 by Moose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The terrorists have satellite tv and the internet, makes for great intel. "All your base are belong to us." -Ethiopia, on Islamic Courts Union Props to Ethiopia, I'll never make a joke about them again. They showed the ICU who's boss. Nice Job. The Al-Qaeda dudes who got lit up by a C-130 = pwned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the idea would be to do this sort of thing after the fact so that it's very clear who is being targeted and why. Sort of like, screw with us and you might just wake up kissing a cruise missile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
