Well, Somalia is larger than you think and is full of deserts and
mountains. It could be real hard to find a certain individual,
especially since they don't use all these electronic gadgets,
individuals could usually be identified with.
But you don't want to tell me, the US army/navy/air force went there, to
find a specific war lord. (?)

Why do you have to demonstrate such abyssal ignorance
And since you are so ignorant, maybe you should stop making stupid
allegations about what happened and what followed.


sorry, but this thread is a bit out of my usual range of subjects and
meandered somewhere even more remote. But I don't think my statements
are that wrong. But if you are interested, I can do a little bit of
research.

If you have to ask that question, now, all these years later, you are
particularly unqualified to comment.


I don't 'have to ask these questions'. Somalia was an example, but I
could have taken another invasion and ask, why that was done and were
there is any befit from this.

In a century the USA fought - maybe - two hundred wars. That was a lot
of 'help' (military aid) to the world. But neither the world nor the USA
look particularly happy.

You see, the subject of this thread were small arms and how they could
be used for self-defence - apparently against the own government. That
is no sign for a population, that really trusts the government. And this
is not, how a particularly happy society looks like (preparing for civil
war). So, were is the benefit?
