----------------------------
Once they started moving, the al Qaeda operatives became easier to track, and the U.S. military started preparing for an air strike, using unmanned aerial drones to keep them under surveillance and moving the aircraft carrier Eisenhower out of the Persian Gulf toward Somalia. But when the order was given, the mission was assigned to the AC-130 gunship operated by the U.S. Special Operations command
.The AC-130 gunship is capable of firing thousands of rounds per second, and sources say a lot of bodies were seen on the ground after the strike, but there is as yet, no confirmation of the identities.
How nice.

But many in predominantly Muslim Somalia resent the presence of troops from neighboring Ethiopia, which has a large Christian population. The countries fought two brutal wars, the last in 1977. So they haven't had a war in 30 years then. Predictable how See BS makes it sound like it's the Christians who are the bad guys.

Somebody got up on the wrong side of the rock, huh? Sounds just like the caveman ad - "yeah, we were just learning to walk upright, discovering fire, inventing the wheel - sorry we didn't get back to ya sooner on that"
"we were just setting up a democracy, teaching people how to vote, think for themselves"
Oops, we didn't send CBS a memo on that. More mango salsa and cowbell!

A U.S. helicopter gunship conducted a strike against two suspected al Qaeda operatives in southern Somalia, but it was not known whether the mission was successful, CBS News reported on Monday. (Graphic/Reuters)
This March 2002 US Air Force (USAF) handout photo shows an Air Force AC-130 gunship on a training exercise. The US military launched an air strike against members of the Al-Qaeda terrorist network in Somalia, but it is unclear whether the operation was a success, US media said.(AFP/USAF-HO/File)

Just getting on this thread now, but if indeed Fazul
Abdullah Mohammed was one of the targets, then Bush
can place another notch in his belt. FAM has been
one of the top fellows Bush has been after. He claims
he has kept a list of these rascals in his desk and
he's been crossing them off one by one. FAM has been
on the FBI's most wanted list since shortly after 9/11.

I pray that Pres. Bush will use this strike in his speech...just to point out to the libs that are always saying that we are in Iraq for NO REASON...
And that we are NOT fighting the "REAL" enemy, al-queda!!!
Oh...yes, Evita Pelosi, we are!!! LOL
