So we left Afghanistan where we had the bases build and we will move to Somalia.
Many Islamic organizations and tribal/Islamist secfs/gangs operate in and out of Somalia so they are a major threat to shipping in the Red Sea/Arabian Sea and the Cape of Good Hope.
They have to be destroyed.
“... in bid to combat al Qaeda-linked extremists”
How’d that work out in Syria?
Why is the US paying to build bases in Somalia?

Haven’t you heard the talking point? Even the Muslims that we DON’T let into the US are a gigantic threat to our lives.
Conveniently this will allow us to throw our political weight around in yet another foreign nation. And eventually Somalia will become dependent upon us for their security. At this point we’ll have the leverage we need to cram Leftist cultural values down their throats. Just one more step in expanding the empire.
Look at the good side of it. Maybe it is really a safe place to return Somalis in the US back to Somaliland!
Send Omar as a prisoner to one of them.
So they can spend billions of taxpayer dollars to build bases, equip them with troops, armor, artillery, vehicles, food, medicine, etc., then pull out, and leave all of it behind for the enemy. But think of how much money those politicians on both sides of the aisle, their family members, friends and big donors will be making in the meantime.
“ So they can spend billions of taxpayer dollars”

Also so they’ll, at some point, have yet another excuse to bring additional hundreds of thousands of Somalis here to enrich our culture.
Yep, that too, and strand hundreds of American Citizens there too, leaving them defenseless, like Bill Clinton and Les Aspin did our Army Rangers in October 1993.

Cash for the squad and their Somalians.

We have millions of illegal invaders flooding our borders.
When that problem is solved then we start worrying about shipping in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea.
Here we go again.
Sorry, they will not be built when the USA goes bust. What happens when the stock market crashes and the money is worthless? Somalia will go to expanded Ethiopia.
“The Battle of Mogadishu (Somali: Maalintii Rangers, lit. ‘Day of the Rangers’), also known as the Black Hawk Down Incident, was part of Operation Gothic Serpent. It was fought on 3–4 October 1993, in Mogadishu, Somalia, between forces of the United States—supported by UNOSOM II—against the forces of the Somali National Alliance (SNA) and armed irregular citizens of south Mogadishu.”
I was there for it and was a helicopter pilot. I’ve always thought as that deployment being my Vietnam. We showed up with kindness in our hearts hoping to be able to actually help these people but by the time we left that was not the case. Tribal communities will do a tribal communities do.
Sounds like a fun place to vacation! I understand they have nice weather there.
Thank you for your service.
Yep! Great Weather with real friendly Africans!
