"Puff, the Magic Dragon, flew by the sea..."

[Earthdweller]

That is one beautiful sight.

But none of this has been publicized widely. If W would schedule a primetie address and tell the people all the good stufff that's going on, things would be a lot better. Instead, all we hear about is car bombs in BNaghdad and the failure of Iraqi sewage systems and job programs.

Fits in nicely with W's speech Wednesday night...could be part of the strategery.

Our navy was there to block the terrorists as they tried to retreat from the Ethiopian troops.
Boxing them in was a joint operation, the honor of raining death on them was given to us.

when the Islamists took over they established order. Built schools, started a legal system, cleaned up the streets.

Aaaaaagggghhhhh!!

[mystery-ak]

This means our spec ops types have been there all along watching all and telling the Etheopians where and with what to strike.



Exactly....

> I do so hope that's true! Thanks for reporting this.

I haven't read this thread. I just heard of this on FNC.

I don't know what to believe these days, but if this pans out, however much we have differed on other things, I am so proud of this man.

Between yesterday, with the "much ado about nothing" in Miami, the hysteria over the tornadoes in the south, and the whoop-de-doo about the derailing in DC, coupled with the "smell" in New York this morning, I pretty much was soured on the news channels.

I am glad to hear they are reporting something that actually happened and is good for our side!

Currently, Fox is reporting on the new Diana inquest. Zzzzzz.

[Bahbah]

Gunships really are day makers arent they?

Just beautiful. Our guys can do what needs doing. They just need to be let loose to do it.

[California74]

As soon as they find out one woman or child was injured or killed in this "attack," we won't hear the end of it.

[Peach]

Ditto that.

[Hoosier-Daddy]

DO you recall how many we had there in Gulf Wars I & II? I seem to think it was 4, one being in the Med. It's a lot of firepower. I think Ahmadinnerjacket said the 12th Imam would be returning in the Spring. Maybe we're getting our pieces in place.

[Palladin]

Kudos to the Navy, also!

[keat]

Was that CBS report from TONIGHT?

Actually a reader comment below the on-line story. But the point of view is virtually indistinguishable from most MSM reporters.

[rottndog]

mmmm, mmmm, good.....better to give than to get.

[CindyDawg]

I'm not so sure we didn't stop something bad in Miami.

[lysie]

Yes.

"..... when the Islamists took over they established order. Built schools, started a legal system, cleaned up the streets. By all accounts the were establishing civil order from chaos - without draconian measures."

Hitler gave the German people the autobahn and the Volkswagen.
What a guy.

[Howlin]

David Schuster slobbering on MSNBC with questons "Did they get their intended targets."

This must have been HUGE!

[dforest]

Thank you, and all our military has my respect. That , I suppose isn't alot, but take me times millions! My son is in the Navy.
