I hope Clinton's not advising the Ethiopians to give it back in a few months.

Clinton?

The US State Department (Dr. Rice) and UN have already been calling for 'restraint' and 'negotiations'. They can't keep their noses out of these wars. They try to rush in with political/diplomatic solutions before the wars are finished.

One report yestereday did say that the Islamics had surrendered.

I think that meant Islamists, not Islamics.

Also, I thought that the leaders had scooted off, but not surrendered, per se. They told their thugs to "secure the stability" ...just because they decided not to fight it out in Mogodishu doesn't mean they're gone.
