Perhaps low yield nukes in Gaza, Somalia, and other training camps would really be more reasonable and of course kind so that there is no real collateral damage!!

In Somalia, everyone is guilty, therefore there can be no collateral damage.

Would a President Obama order a strike on a Muslim country?

Just asking...

They have come a long way in the targeting capabilities of the Thomahawk!

It’s a good time to demonstrate some of our capabilities. And the idea that a sub lurking in the mighty unknown depths can take out the party at the neighbors is awesome - Good Find.

Two $600,000 tomahawk cruise missiles used to kill some camel jockey who wasn't worth a nickel. There has got to be a cheaper way to rub out these worthless dirt bags.

although, if the government is going to waste our tax dollars this is a pretty cool way to do it!

Clearly the recent tactics of the Clinton campaign have caused some confusion. Barack Obama left that country years ago.

Why would it have anything to do with a Med deployment?

I don't know what assets we have in the immediate surrounds of Somalia, so that was just a simple question on my part.

So we kill terrorists in Somalia and then enable them in Kosovo, what am I missing here?

So we kill one there and let another one run a country, sounds counterproductive to me.

You need to pay attention, Osama Bin Laden was helping enable the KLA, if you prefer terrorists who kill Americans over a justifiably angry mob, then you need to revisit your priorities.
