You know nothing about me - stop putting words in my mouth and assuming I'm a "bleeding heart". I was just pointing out a very judgemental and ignorant post. How does spouting off a hateful, vitriolic, ignorant rant help anyone understand or solve a problem? If you want to discuss an issue, it helps to understand why it became one.
And why bring Clinton into this? The US was in Somalia for a humanitarian mission called Operation Restore Hope. UN presence form '92-'95 was a VERY LIMITED peacekeeping mission to prevent famine. We were never there to secure the country, and after 18 American Troops were killed , leaving was the correct decision (regardless of who may have planned the attack). Was Clinton suppose to look into his crystal ball and see that pirates would hijack ships a decade later? Should that have changed his decision if he had?
And no, Bin Laden was NOT in Somalia in the early 90's. The country you're looking for is Sudan. The Clinton Justice Department indited Bin Laden in '98. Clinton even sent missiles to try and kill Bin Laden. Remember the Wag the Dog accusations by the Republicans? Great way to support your commander and chief when he's trying to protect and defend America.
thanks for clearing that up for him the sad thing is most americans are like this who hold his views uninformed individuals..
Do you think every person in a Muslim country is a Jihadist hellbent on attacking America? 'Cause that's like a billion people or so.
This is the problem with latching on to single news stories to base your theories on.
Anecdotal evidence is gay.
Ummm...no offense, Art. I think there have been much more than a single attack. What about Madrid, London, Indonesia, Mumbai, & all the beheadings? It's much more than a few bad apples here.

What do those have to do with Somali pirates? They aren't killing their hostages. They are freeing them when they receive their ransom. They are not raising their Qu'ran's and yelling "Allah Akbar" when they board these vessels. I doubt any are that devout to begin with. Not saying they are good people, just pointing out these are not Islamic terrorists.. these are economic terrorists. And in agreement with Art, all 1 billion muslims are not Islamic terrorists.
Minibrings, I guarantee that when the vermin start to experience the smack down, they will turn this into a Jihad. We already have Somalis here in the U.S. that are pulling their same old tired crap. Now they want to get off the assembly lines in order to pray. They have already filed several lawsuits. Trust me, that sorry excuse for a country is overran with Allah Aktards. You should look at England and France. This is our future unless we stop the immigration of these people into our country. And yes, the pirate vermin will try to migrate here and get on welfare like they do in England.

Err... We were talking about Somali pirates. Did Somali pirates attack Madrid, London, and Mumbai? Are Somali pirates beheading people? Why are you linking all these things together?
Stay focused here, Sarge. You're all over the place. You used a single event to support your theory that there was about to be an influx of Somali pirates illegally entering America:

Now you've wandered off into some argument that all or most Muslims are jihadists because there has been more than one terrorist attack by Muslims?

It just might be time to station troops on the commercial ships of the world or allow the Captain to own suitable weapons. Simply return to the armed merchantmen of the 15 to 18 hundreds. I am pretty certain a Harpoon missile launcher doesn’t take up that much room. I know a .50 cal machine gun dosen’t.
Sorry. We need to see what the "world's opinion" is on the matter of US intervention before we do anything like that.
We're just finally starting to get back in their good graces.
