I don't think anybody else has AC-130s.

"the US launched this attack?"

The United States' support of the Ethiopian cleansing of Somalia has been briefly mentioned in a few press reports but has been surprisingly underplayed. This story suggests that we have not only been watching carefully but have been deeply involved in strategy and intel... and are now pouncing on the bad guys who've been smoked out of their holes. Good stuff.

Sounds like it. Let's see - a number of vulcan 20 mm, and at least one 105mm on board the A/C - 130 Spectre. A seriously "killer" machine - pun intended.
