i see a lot of talk about al-qaida in somalia. of course, no real intel has ever existed to substantiate that claim. at least, the wmd's claims had photos, expert testimony, etc., to go with them. so, first off, anybody who says there is al-qaida in somalia automatically loses. second, if you say we are not bombing somalia because we are only dropping a few bombs, obviously, you lose. dropping a few bombs is bombing.
morons 4 years ago. 4 years later, still morons.

First, we're not BOMBING SOMALIA! We took one gunship and fired rounds into a safe house harboring al-quada. Take twelve squads of b-52's and carpet bomb Somalia from the north to the south, and then you can pose your stupid little question.
Second, we're not losing any war. The Taliban have been irreparably damaged and are not coming back, the country has an elected Prime Minister, an elected Parliament, a ratified constitution, and is under the protection of NATO, the largest military alliance in the history of the world.
Third, we toppled an entire regime in Iraq and have occupied that country for four years now, and have suffered less casualties than in a two week period of time in Vietnam. We’ve used a fraction of our air power and naval forces to do this, and we have not had to substantially increase defense spending. The reason there are terror attacks in Iraq on a daily basis is because of the ethnic divisions in that country that Saddam Hussein’s divide and rule policy led to, which is another consequence of letting that dictator stay in power twelve years after he should have been removed. So don’t get preachy with the people who say it’s about time we stopped with this masochism and capitulationism to terrorists and the countries that support them!

Well first of all, we are not losing in Afghanistan. And we arent losing in Iraq either, but no one is winning either.
What are we supposed to do with Al Qaeda members? Bombing them sounds like the right idea.

Correction: we are not bombing Somalia. The US airforce performed a tactical precision strike on fleeing Al-Qaeda members in Somalia who were involved in attacks against innocent Americans. These terrorists aren't even Somalis.
Anyway, I am truly sorry for you loss ):

George Bush in the past argued against surgical strikes calling them antiseptic and impotent.

Muslims are the first to assert there is really one Islam and really Muslims - no extremists or moderates. Islam makes us hate Islam and mistrust Muslims, a minimum of for those human beings that've taken the time to study about Islam and characteristic paid interest to the horrendous moves of way too many Muslims! Muslims will wrestle different Muslims too because of Islamic teachings. this is only a violent and illiberal political ideology, hidden behind the declare of being a faith. Quran 049.009 YUSUFALI: If 2 activities between the Believers fall right into a quarrel, make ye peace between them: yet when one in each of them transgresses previous bounds hostile to the different, then wrestle ye (all) hostile to the only which transgresses till it complies with the command of Allah; yet when it complies, then make peace between them with justice, and be honest: for Allah loves those who're honest (and merely). Quran (2:216) - "scuffling with is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. inspite of the indisputable fact that it truly is achievable that ye dislike a area it truly is powerful for you, and that ye love a area it truly is undesirable for you. yet Allah knoweth, and ye understand not." Quran (4:76) - "those who have self assurance wrestle contained in the reason of Allah…" Quran (8:12) - "i am going to forged terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. for this reason strike off their heads and strike off each fingertip of them" Quran (8:39) - "And wrestle with them till there is no extra fitna (sickness, unbelief) and faith must be only for Allah"

well of course its ok. the stock needs to be rotated to make way for more newer, bigger, better more expensive and devastating bombs and where better than a country that can't defend itself polically or strategically. i say we go after mexico, france and thailand next; then maybe britan, canada and luxembourg. :)

When will people realize that killing others just creates more enemies and violence? Hopefully someday! Bush is a moron. He wasn't elected. He's a failure and an embarrassment to our country, the world and the ENTIRE HUMAN RACE. I hope God takes him soon, and flushes him.
