Barre was ousted in 1991 (after 3 years of war with the north part of the country) and civil war has been continuous since. Hundreds of thousands died. It doesn't have to be Sudan.

JasonC, I am sorry that you were bothered by my including you. I pinged you because you had posted on another thread, same subject.

From your previous post apparently I got the wrong impression that you were interested in the discussion.

I don't have a ping list for this story or this subject so I have nothing to remove you from.

Also I am unaware of the person who keeps an "unsolicited ping list" but you could probably ask around and someone else might have a better idea of who keeps such a list. Then you can ask them to remove your name from their list.

Spam is advertising geared to generate sales. I am a member of Free Republic. I am not selling anything.

Have a nice day.

So much for the "we'll fight to the death for Allah" prediction they were making awhile back...

Amazing how a small Ethiopian army can push back the Islamonazis in Somalia for a victory, but our mighty American army must retreat from Iraq in defeat because we have become weak-willed.

[elhombrelibre]

More likely our politicians could...no holds barred when fighting these ruthless thugs.

Yeah, that's right we're so weak-willed we have the U.S. Fifth Fleet over there as back-up for the "small Ethiopian Army." /sarcasm

It is only defeat in the eyes of the liberal media and leftists with political aspirations.

[bd476]

Amazing, isn't it.

[elfman2]

I, much of the military, half the country and most of the world would flip sides if some fool tried to abuse our military to forcibly convert anyone to any religion.

[bd476]

True and there's no real reason why they can't.

[b4its2late]

We should learn from this.....

[mjp]

Hey Europe: if Ethiopia can defeat the slimes, you can too. It's not too late.

[bd476]

Yes, the libs should take notes on this.

[pctech]

You are right, I stand corrected.

Kenya is eagerly waiting at their border trust me. Many Kenyans died at the hands of these vermin in the two embassy bombings.

Payback is a bitch.

[The Old Hoosier]

Hope the Kenyans are ready with their bayonetts...

[omega4179]

Kenya is only 10% Muslim, lets hope they are ready at the border.

[romanesq]

Applause. :)

[Albion Wilde]

If every nation that has a similar Islamist infestation followed Ethiopia's lead, the WoT might be shorter than most politicians think.

European nations, take note.

[tomnbeverly]

What do the liberals say to this? Is it good news or bad?

Happy New Year Ernest, and best wishes for a content upcoming year.
