Air Force AC-130 gunships struck al Qaeda targets in Somalia Jan. 8, news sources reported last night.

Gunships, plural. One will ruin your whole life, two ...

Yeehaw

Lots of Al Qaeda got to meet their god, but no virgins for them, just a rather "warm" reception.

Avenging Black Hawk Down.

Back in 1993, the US Forces were "fighting to the oldies", sound track blaring to the staccato blasts from machine gun fire.

This time, a rapid-fire laser-aimed aerial gun platform comes whipping in, placing highly accurate bursts in defined targets, with devastating results.

Bet they're sorry now, they got the Americans all steamed up.

It is interesting.

We on FR have been following raw news of the conflict in Somalia for a couple of weeks.

FoxNews and the other MSM seem to have just found the story the last couple of days.

No wonder the MSM detest the unfiltered Internet.

As I pointed out on the first thread to report this, I am immensely gratified: as the FR archives will show, I was advocating deployment of AC-130H's in support of the Ethiopians from the moment they went in.

If I read that right they're launching C-130's off of carrier decks?

As another freeper said last night:

While the Democrats were home watching a football game, the president was bombing Somalia.
