Read what I said... they were asked to give him up and they refused.

That is not the same as being one of the plotters of 9-11

Ok, it's just harboring and abetting them. So, it's pretty close, esp.
after
3000 US citizens just died as a result.

That is a stretch, bordering on the 9-11 Iraq connection which was
none too.

There was no "stretch" for Iraq. That was out and out lying to the American
public.


We are not doing much of anything in Somalia. We can't even stop the
pirates that operate right on the coast. After Mogadishu we are not
venturing into the central part much at all.
Cite something to prove I am wrong.

Sure... http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/06/wo...06somalia.html

Do you actually read the articles you link? This is 2 in a row where
the article says exactly the opposite of what you represented it as
saying..

"This is not an American offensive, said Johnnie Carson, the
assistant secretary of state for Africa. The U.S. military is not on
the ground in Somalia.."


And...

"Most of the American military assistance to the Somali government has
been
focused on training, or has been channeled through African Union
peacekeepers. But that could change. An American official in Washington,
who
said he was not authorized to speak publicly, predicted that American
covert
forces would get involved if the offensive, which could begin in a few
weeks, dislodged Qaeda terrorists. "

And...

"Obama appears to have suspended such attacks, although, in mid-September
last year, helicopter-borne U.S. Special Forces ambushed a convoy carrying
Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, the leader of an al Qaeda cell in Kenya who,
according to U.S. officials, played key roles in the 1998 bombings of the
U.S. embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam and a 2002 bombing of an
Israeli
hotel in Mombasa. "

"That could change" ... "attack in Kenya"

Like I said we are not in Somalia.
A lot of things "could" happen.

We are training them, we have drone attacks on and off. Feel free to bury
your head in the sand.


I am only criticizing Obama for acting as dumb as
Bush

I said that I was hopeful it would change, and from the last link, it
appears to be. So much for him acting as dumb as Bush.

Yeah he "could" be smarter than Bush, we just haven't seen it yet.
I am hopeful but this whole thing was built on "hope" not action.


Yes, we have. He didn't start a war for no reason and he's fulfilling many
of what he said he'd do. He's not a moron and he doesn't take 1/3 of his
time as vacation.

We have been in Korea for almost 60 years and things are worse now
than they were in 1953.


?? In 1953 we were still actively fighting, at least through the first
half
of the year. How many US troops have died fighting N. Koreans this year?


In 1953 big Kim did not have a nuke and he didn't sink any ships.

And, how many US troops have died?? Why don't you blame Clinton for the
nukes and the ship sinking...
