My OP was moved from "Politics"....I take it a SEAL raid in Somalia has no political ramifications.....who knew??

Isn't this why God invented Predator drones?

Ultimately it won't change anything. We have to do it, but I hope no children were injured.

Lord only knows what we were really after...I will have to do some research....

Just foreign policy. We have AFRICOM over there. We send weapons to child soldiers get involved in all kinds of things that are in our interests. We do it because we can, and nobody can stop us.

The only actual terrorists, besides zionists obviously, are Somali/Kenyans (Obama's relatives) since they pirate vessels on the high seas. ZERO tolerance for that. Obama's homeland should have been nuked. Why endanger highly trained people with the disposal of actual subhumanoids.

Ultimately it won't change anything. We have to do it, but I hope no children were injured.

Yes, in the end, it will change things. That deeds have consequences is something that the terrorists must learn. And I concur with your wishes concerning the children. In the end, they are the primary victims of the insanity of any war.

Possibly, even the greatest purveyor of violence in the world can not kill its way to peace? Given the recent US history of supporting fundamentalist Islam over secular Arab leaders, it's worth asking who is getting rich from the Long War. The US economy is sinking while $trillions are spent on destroying Iraq, Libya, Syria, Sudan, and Somalia; it's time to spend the resources on homeland infrastructure. Let the bankers bleed for Wall Street.
