Why has the US been bombing Somalia for 40 years ?

[the other mike]

Under every president since Reagan, including Trump, we have been bombing Somalia, and most Americans couldn't find it on a map, much less are they aware we have troops there

beat ya to it...did a thread about Trump pulling out of Somalia and how al shabab have grown stronger since (in current events section)...check it out, after foreign policy wrote this article:

Somalia’s al Qaeda Branch Has Gotten ‘Bigger, Stronger, and Bolder’ Since U.S. Exit

As in Afghanistan, Trump’s decisions to withdraw have only emboldened terrorists.

Hey, I almost could find it --- I think it's north of Ethiopia.

Anyway, we make invasion war on another country every third Tuesday, so I don't know why we complain about Putin doing it.

We've been bombing Somalia for eons because there are still ants moving around in the nest. Still not quite safe enough there to build that new American shopping mall, so's I guess we need to drop more.

What the hell is wrong with us. We shoulda bombed that place off the map before that Omar woman got out of it.

You have to drop them somewhere! They have a use by date.

Or dismantle them and make some giant wind chimes.
