I think this has the potential to become a real bloodbath.What will the UN ever do???
Kick their friggin asses!!!!!
Appoint the outgoing Secretary General, Kofi Annan, and his son, to run a relief program funded by the UN.
This is going to get ugly. We should be offering all kinds of help to Ethiopia and Yemen, each of which is otherwise isolated, and attempting to walk a tightrope.
Oh yeah, and before I forget, Islam delenda est.
Easy way to get rid of the muzzies:
Carpet bomb Mogadishu with pig s#!t!
Yeah, I like how he works. Of course, they're going to find out that they're badly outgunned, but chances are they'll prevail anyway, because the Islamists have pissed off a lot of people in their climb into power, and those who gave up and sided with them will now turn on them.
Let's all hold our breaths waiting for the condemnations of 'human rights' violations when Somalia whoops the ever lov9ing stuffing out of Mogadishu and causes massive destructiuon. instead of being careful to avoid civilian casualties liek Israel did in their war, but which drew STRONG condemnations from the U.N! http://sacredscoop.com
Its really hard to say how outgunned Ethiopia really is at this point. I would like to think that we're giving them some help in the area of funding and arms.
If memory serves (and sometimes it's on vacation), Ethiopia has a wide variety of arms (fairly reliable stuff, just not all of it up to date) from manufacturers all over the world, and plenty of if. The al Qaeda and Hizzies specialize in a sort of "wall of sound" approach derived from Soviet tactics developed in WWII, as well as hit and run tactics against operationally superior foes (like the US in Iraq and Afghanistan, and Israel in Gaza and Lebanon).
Got to wish Mr. Gedi luck!
I think Ethiopia's greatest weapon is the fact that they don't have a politically correct anchor around their throats. Clearly they recognize the threat they face and they aren't making any bones about it.
Really quite admirable.
Yay! Now better get to it; chop, chop. :)
Looks like Revenge of the Gedi is about to be released...
I'm betting the CIA is working very closely with Ethiopia.
I remember reading somewhere, where the Ethopians ARE NOT to be taken for granted.
They fought a protracted war with, hmm, Eritrea I believe (I just read this, but hey, my mind is goin' fast), and not that long ago, so they are bound to have experienced veterans both running things and doing the fighting. Should be interesting.
