@MMABJJ1987 the British weren't involved in Somalia, the Americans had rangers and delta force in Somalia as part of the UN mission and they got intel on HVTs nearby so they had to scramble together an operation on short notice, had no helicopter gone down casualties would've been -50 somalis and 1 American dead
@rud100le i never said the British where involved? and no matter how much 'short notice' they got they should not have done it that bad! what is is with Delta and crashing helicopters? it should have been out in-out mission, but the delta boys are to full on.
The reason we invaded Somalia was because Mohammed Aidid was siezing all food imports, during a famine, allowing 300,000 civilians starve... he was using hunger was his weapon. We,... being the way we are...., planned to remove Aidid, deliver food, and restore order. Yes, it was none of our buisness but concidering that 300,000 died and more were to come, we couldn't just stand there and do nothing. Please, I don't want any trouble, I'm not looking for any... this just an explaination.
Youtube would be a better place if it didn't show all the replies in the comments, because the problem is that no one minds their own buisness---Woops! I just did it again! Why do I keep scolling down at EVERY video? Why do I even bother? Seriously. Just say what you thught, and don't look down, bucause you'll get mad a someone in no time.
@Thomas9606 Iraq make a whole 2.85 % of the worlds oil which is now under the control of the new Iraqi govt. We are not getting anything for free. If we were then why are gas prices in the US so high. And Afghanistan is not even listed in the top 115 oil producing countries. . And yeah we were there in Somalia trying to keep people from starving due to drought and theft . try again infofail
@kpcpcpc Not exactly true, Afghanistan is the route for new oil pipelines which will link the ocean shipment markets and stabilise the oil price globally. In a meeting before the war (and 9-11 attacks) when they asked for redirection of some of this oil for local use, Afghan diplomats were told "Either you accept our carpet of gold or we'll carpet you with bombs". The country is also a major source for rare-earth minerals.
@kpcpcpc Also the amount of oil supplied by Iraq will obviously not have a positive impact on price "at the gas pump" given that we are beyond Peak-Oil and prices will only ever rise for this valued commodity suffering from limited supply. Best place to look would be the numbers for domestic oil production over the past 10 years. Previous to those 10 years you can see the public record reflect politicians concern over oil supply insecurity and the forecast drop in local production.
@GBcrusader I bet you have never been to the U.S. If so, you don't have the right to talk about it. I think you have been listening to the German government for too long.
@bloodhoun138 FUCK MAN, you should read yourself talking BULLSHIT. Talking about ppl 'hearing to a certain government for too long' xDDD don't you get the paradox in saying: 'you are listening too much to your government' but on the other side you live in the United FUCKING States and leave such annoying, stupid, bullshit-patriotic comments on youtube?
@GBcrusader No, In fact. They are the worst Special Forces team ever. They have failed almost every single mission and currently, they have embarrassed their own minister after a failed mission in Libya. The only successful missions were only in WW2. Wanna know who kicks ass? U.S. SEALs
Somalia is an utterly worthless country inhabited by an utterly worthless people. The Somalis will never amount to anything. We had no business being there just we have no business in Iraq or Libya.
Still, we are damned if we do and damned if we don't: if we don't intervene on humanitarian grounds, then Third Worlders claim we don't care about them. If we do intervene, these same Third Worlders claim we are imperialists. Time to ignore them and their cheerleaders here in the West. Fuck 'em.
@tommy9922 What a ignorant thing to say. since the west and other invading countries have ruined large parts of Africa we should always try and help them. The yanks done this all wrong, if you would have sent in the SAS they would have removed the warlord with very few deaths.Once again the US uses muscle over brains.
@TheLucky71ful At least some documents told that americans were first welcomed, but after they attacked some community leaders & stuff rage against them begun. But yeah I wouldnt still blame them from total destruction and civil war of Somalia.
@Pvjinflight I don't know where you got your information but I was there when the first US casulity happened a young Marine was killed and dragged through the streets that was when our forces first went in to Moug. They acted like the Vietnameese we couldn't tell who was friend or foe
@seabeedanny1 I doubt that vietnamese acted like that, at least US troops who intentionally killed whole village of civilians in My Lai knew what they were doing, mass murdering.
@Pvjinflight lol thats so dumb, at least they knew what they were doing was wrong? Well obviously not or they wouldnt have done it! They are just as bad
Right really? Enough with all the "our country is better than yours because ..." Grow the fuck up! America and UK are allies. Get over yourselves already... I'm from the UK but I don't have any prejudice against America or anything. Neither do the many Americans I have met so just grow up.
@bloodhoun138 Actually... thats war... every army or combatant uses what ever leverage they've got. If you can't handle an enemies tactic... then don't fight them, or atleast use different ways.
Speaking of pussies... bombing from 30000 ft and sending rockets from 1000 miles away (You know, the well known US specialities) isn't exactly hand-to-hand combat either. So don't whine about others using their tactics.
@UltraRebels SURE, We have the money to use that kind of weaponry. BUT, We have more land forces than any other country. Mostly special forces and they do more than hand to hand combat. You'll understand if our country ever invades yours.
@bloodhoun138 What does "money to use that kind of weaponry" have to do with what I said? You called hit and run tactics a way for pussies. So I explained how you also use "pussy tactics". The fact that you have many groundtroops is irrelevant.
No, you won't invade us. We are not a third world nation and we don't have any oil.
@UltraRebels -_- I meant we can use that weaponry anytime we want to. Pussy tactics? Your people use the pussy tactics. All your people do is stick your head around a corner and fire and RPG aimlessly and go back to jerkin off in front of the local porn house. Yes, Our country would probably invade you cause Israel, It's the cradel of all terrorism. It is the root of all terrorism actually.
@bloodhoun138 Yes, you can use those weapons anytime you want to... but the point was, that it had nothing to do with the fact that it's just as much of a pussy tactic as the hit and run that you whined about.
Wow, you really aren't very bright... I'm not Israeli or Palestinian. I'm just against israels fascism and apartheid.
Besides, "aimless RPG" is very comparable to what I previously mentioned... bombing from 30000 ft and then fly home to "jerk off".
@UltraRebels We are a plentiful nation. We can use any kind of weaponry we want and your dumb ass can't tell our forces what to use. Are you jealous or something?
@UltraRebels Holy shit you are ignorant. Just keep living your shitty life knowing that America will always own your shitty ass life. Keep being a keyboard queen. OR Just give up and end your pathetic life cause everyone knows you need to.
@ishgood100 Are you fucking serious? Congrats, your people shot down a neutral helicopter (wasn't even moving) and your people claim that they "won" a war? Your people are full of shit and if we ever did go to war with your shit filled country, their would be no one left. Your just lucky the "rules of engagement" were just starting to kick in effect after the Persian Gulf War, Or like my dad said, He would have lit every sand monkey up in that shit hole.
@bloodhoun138 well dont take it in the wrong way but whenever somalis hear words like that from americans they just think americans are just all talk since they NEVER had a successfull mission in somalia. your mission was a disastor little street kids were shooting your troops. you got shamed up in mogadishu infact somalians laugh whenever americans are mentioned an remeber Sergeants Gordon and Shughart and other troops dragged around town binded by a rope from a car LOL
what is this (dark sargent) talkin about somalians aint african u d**b ass ***** n u african americans dont know where in africa u come from in africa ***** i bet u u dont even know ur own dads name looool
Somalia is not Africa nor Africa is Somalia :D If African Americans knew which part of Africa their ancestors were stolen from...they would be more precise in describing who they are (like Irish Americans or Italian Americans or German Americans....etc).
This is where the US and the rest of the civilized world learned that sub Saharan Africa is a hopeless cause and that it would be better to put a great big fence around it, so that nobody can move out or in anymore, let the savages slaughter eachother for about 20 years, and then recolonize it.
@helmuthoorn At least get the respectful Africans out if you're going to do that. Don't generalize the few with the many. There are many Africans who are educated and sophisticated that are better than many Americans. You do realize many of our elite and leading doctors and researchers have come from Africa... Ever heard of the brain drain of Africa?
This will of course never happen, but it does not deny the sad truth about sub Saharan Africa.
Did hear of the brain drain of South Africa and the massive diaspora of the Afrikaner Boer people (MY people!) and a once beautiful country, going down the drain the same way as Zimbabwe, Zaire, Nigeria and Liberia. No wonder the more educated people are moving out.
Who wants to create a future for him/herself and a family in hellholes like this?
It was a UN effort, twas totally wrong to think of the movie were you can find only americans doing the long skirmishes, though u.s. maybe were the majority. The UN stand was to raid and defend, while the militiamen was there to fire at will at UN forces and hide in between innocents. If you ask the UN forces who where the innocents, by conduct they will answer you - those non-militia men. Though its so wrong to say that. The UN won that battle, while the somalis suffer their own cancer war.
jajajaja, unny, where america lost jajaja!!!!!! good one!!!!! 18 good soldiers were killed, it was sad, but over 300 blacks killed, so you could say it was actually a bitter victory fo AMERICA
@Ryk1348 You are a retarded or what? American soldiers fought bravely, and 100 men kicked more than a thousand Somalies, and if it wasn't because of the ass-brained politicians at D.C., the soldiers would have wipped your people out, because what your people did was savagnes at extreme: dragging american dead bodies on the streets as if they were less than trash. And your people still claims to be able to solve their problems? You live on the fucking Middle Age.
@floodmaster16 your ass-brained politicians were the ones who ordered that shit of a mess they called an operation.They went in. Got over manned. And turned and said, "Fuck it" They wasted the lives of those men who died. they should've either completed the goddamn mission or never have started in the first place. Somalia a shit hole because back in the day the Warsaw pact and Nato politically armed certain tribes to give strategic areas to their Nato/Warsaw Pact allys. Next time clean your mes
@Remodemha I'm sorry to break your little bubble, but I'm not American, dude, and I can surely tell you that politicians fucked everything, I agree with you in that, but politicians were also the ones who stopped the Rangers operation, and if it wasn't for that, the whole army would have torn apart the whole damn Bakara market. ou should be glad of the American politicians, they saved the asses of thousends of Somalies, because the soldiers were eager to go in and kill everyone involved.
@floodmaster16 What do you expect from civilans being under the constant pressure of ongoing military raids? The dead bodies being dragged through those streets is a symbol - its a symbol of the hate those soldiers created amongst the civilians. And blaming the politicians in DC for the failure of that mission is also very poor. Raiding a city multiple times the same way is dumb so mogadshu is kind of lesson learned the hard way.
@stakas46 Yeah, you're right about that, but I can surely tell you that if it were backwards, with Somali bodies being dragged by the American, the Somalies would be claiming that they are also savages, and we both know that.
@floodmaster16 The fact is these guys with guns in Somalia are savages, unable to read or write, let alone solve their little differences. I know that, because I am a Somali.
@Axmedkoole I agree with you, and I apology if I offended you because I'm not talking about everyone in Somalia, I'm talking about the guys with guns who think they are making a difference and they are just ruining the country.
@floodmaster16 No, you haven't said anything wrong buddy. Somalia would be a better place if anyone of these idiots carrying rusty old AK's knew how to at least read and write their own names. They run on drugs, and ignorance, and until each and everyone of them is dead, Somalia will not change a bit. And these other savages that think they will save Somalia in the name of Allah, good luck. Because, Allah will be no where to be found when you're not working hard to get to where you want.
@Axmedkoole Killing them wont change a bit. We don't have to fight those gunslingers but if we want to bring order to Somalia or any other country we have to win the economic and social battle. Those warlords can only exists as long as there is a society that supports them - willingly or unwillingly. Once you are able to give a real opportunity you wont be seen as occupants but as allies.
Best examples are the advancements of germany after WW2 or how the soviets where pushed out of the oman.
@stakas46 You have a briliant political view. I wished all the so called presidents thought like you. I can't understand how we can win "war on terror" if we are not reaching out the folks that could be terrorists etc tomorrow due to lack of opportunity etc. I endorse you for president in 2012.
@Axmedkoole Too right, bro,I wish a lot of people shared youe thoughts, world wouldn't be much of the shithole it is right now (it wouldn,t be paradise, but less than a shithole). I really think the only way to stop this is enforcing education in these places, so people don't need of drugs and violece to live properly
I had some Somali friends, rather decent people, similar to the Ethiopians.
Ofcoarse there are tugs in every country, unfortuately there is no strong government in Somalia to keeps the tugs in check, so the gangs are "in charge".
Imagine Mexico without the army, the drag lords will rule.
The UN should/could have done better if the polititians didnt chicken out.
@01Laffey It works Ratio wise idiot. yeah 18 Us soldiers Died and 1000 somalis. But in percentage, ratio wise etc US LOST THE WAR. If u had a gang of 20 friends and fought a gang of 9000, and you managed to kill like 700 out of 9000 of them while they killed 15 out of 20 of your friends, Would you Flee? or say like an idiot "Hmm.. im doing fine i killed 700 but they killed only 15 of us" or would u run cuz there is only 5 of you left now. USA withdrew wen the aidids troop didnt even cal ceasefi
@Yesckfans Another point, the clan didnt fight against the WHOLE US army but against 160 Rangers and Delta Force Operatives along with support from the air. Most of the US casualities were from the Convoy which was a fairly big fuck up since they didnt predicted the Somalis road blocking every street
@01Laffey Aidid even said hes clan Militiamen where hardly killed which meant u killed other innocent people.. giv it a month and your whole USA troop would have been wiped out.. U had hellicopters and high tech guns, while they had pistols, and weak old outdated rifles and homemade weopons.U fougnt a clan men of 2000-4000 vs whole USA's army Potential and help of pakistan a.k.a porkistan, Italy a.k.a Shitaly and dat shithole gooks called Malaysia. fuck you.
@Yesckfans But which I sources am I gonna trust, one from a country with no government or one with a Government. Also you have to remember even women and children had weapons in Somalia, and they wanted to kill US troops due to Aidids propaganda bullshit of telling lies like "theyll come and steal your children". On the weapons side the Somalis mainly had access to AK47 and probably FN FAL. This are very powerful weapons and could be easily found in bakara market.
@Yesckfans It was a UN effort, if you will give it a month, i am sure the whole somalia will be wiped out, not just mogadishu. Even if only the U.S. forces where there from start to the end, fighting all their militiamen plus those non-militia men woman and children. I am sure the whole of somalia will still be wiped out. The UN stand was to raid and defend, while the militiamen and the pretending innocents was there to fire at will to UN forces.
@Yesckfans Because Aidid is a totally reliable source.
You do realize that the US army has more than just helicopters and humvees right? You wish 100 rangers is the US army's potential. If we wanted, we could have reduced Somalia to a series of craters in the ground. Every square foot.
Instead, we decided to try and help the starving people there. The only reason the US left was politics.
While I am thankful for reporters risking their lives to show the world what is going on in many remote parts of the world, sometimes you have to wonder at their stupidity.
What a fucking dump of a nation, reminds me to be thankful that I was born in North America. It's so disheartening to see the state that people have to live in, and really there seems to be no way to help them or for them to get better on their own.
Ya America lost cause we had to fight people who hide behind civys as human shields. Sorry we happen to have a policy "DON'T SHOOT CIVYS" we aren't like the warlords who use anything to their advantage. If their was no civilians we could just bomb the warlords and their men to hell and it would be done with.
"be careful where you point the camera" *points camera right at armed somolian* "down, down, DOWN!" *pans back over to somolians before putting camera down*
Terrible place. You might get shot just for staring or because you`re white. Everywhere people are armed and don`t see murder as an issue. They are so used to this that they simply don`t understand other way of thinking and couldn`t care less about human rights or laws. And they are like this cause Europe had been stealing everything valuable for centuries until not so long ago.
Thumbs up for bravery of those reporters, that risk their lives and travel in crazy places to show the truth.
@Alex2149 That is easy to answer. Not only will the skeletons of the KKK vanish but also the parts of that airplane will be forever vanished from face of this planet.
they look at a dead heli and go "Hey this is where america is nice anough to not Nuke out poor sad asses away off this earth" thats what it should be we never lose we only feel sorry and realize "HEY FUCK YOU!"
@skyknight1234 What do you mean "we"? I bet you were sitting on your fucking couch the whole time the fighting was going on. You're just a wannabe patriot.
@SpiderShane1 What is a "wannabe patriot"? Isn't a partiot one who loves and loyally supports ones country? Doas one have to be a soldier to be a patriot?
There are a lot of people who will banket blame Americans for everything that America has done in it's entire history so if someone says "we" when refering to what Americans has done or what they would "us" to do I don't have a problem with it.
yeah that was very smart sending a white man to a country hmm probolly 99.99% black,to top it of send a whiteman to a black mans country while they all got ak47s and big m60's on cars. 0_o.
@sirmdlc Nice Ace Combat zero reffrence. in general, i dont think the fight was a total loss. we completed the objective at the cost of only two helicopters. but the downside is we lost 20 something guys
These guys seem like a pair of idiots, they could see that people were getting pissed off when the camera was pointed at them, so they keep doing it! The guy even went to drawn down and point his weapon at the cameraman. Basic rule - you don't GO to Somalia unless you really, really need too, even then you take an experienced close protection team. Somalia has no laws, it's run by warlords and pirates.
@MMABJJ1987 the British weren't involved in Somalia, the Americans had rangers and delta force in Somalia as part of the UN mission and they got intel on HVTs nearby so they had to scramble together an operation on short notice, had no helicopter gone down casualties would've been -50 somalis and 1 American dead

@bloodhoun138 What does "money to use that kind of weaponry" have to do with what I said? You called hit and run tactics a way for pussies. So I explained how you also use "pussy tactics". The fact that you have many groundtroops is irrelevant.
No, you won't invade us. We are not a third world nation and we don't have any oil.

@UltraRebels -_- I meant we can use that weaponry anytime we want to. Pussy tactics? Your people use the pussy tactics. All your people do is stick your head around a corner and fire and RPG aimlessly and go back to jerkin off in front of the local porn house. Yes, Our country would probably invade you cause Israel, It's the cradel of all terrorism. It is the root of all terrorism actually.
bloodhoun138 7 months ago
@bloodhoun138 Yes, you can use those weapons anytime you want to... but the point was, that it had nothing to do with the fact that it's just as much of a pussy tactic as the hit and run that you whined about.
Wow, you really aren't very bright... I'm not Israeli or Palestinian. I'm just against israels fascism and apartheid.
Besides, "aimless RPG" is very comparable to what I previously mentioned... bombing from 30000 ft and then fly home to "jerk off".

@bloodhoun138 Holy shit you are thick... I'll try this again.
1. You said: hit and run is a pussy tactic
2. You use: The same tactic
3. Hence: You are also pussies, by YOUR own definition.
What the fuck has that got to do with money or anything other then the three facts I just stated to you???

This is where the US and the rest of the civilized world learned that sub Saharan Africa is a hopeless cause and that it would be better to put a great big fence around it, so that nobody can move out or in anymore, let the savages slaughter eachother for about 20 years, and then recolonize it.

This will of course never happen, but it does not deny the sad truth about sub Saharan Africa.

It was a UN effort, twas totally wrong to think of the movie were you can find only americans doing the long skirmishes, though u.s. maybe were the majority. The UN stand was to raid and defend, while the militiamen was there to fire at will at UN forces and hide in between innocents. If you ask the UN forces who where the innocents, by conduct they will answer you - those non-militia men. Though its so wrong to say that. The UN won that battle, while the somalis suffer their own cancer war.

@Ryk1348 You are a retarded or what? American soldiers fought bravely, and 100 men kicked more than a thousand Somalies, and if it wasn't because of the ass-brained politicians at D.C., the soldiers would have wipped your people out, because what your people did was savagnes at extreme: dragging american dead bodies on the streets as if they were less than trash. And your people still claims to be able to solve their problems? You live on the fucking Middle Age.

@floodmaster16 your ass-brained politicians were the ones who ordered that shit of a mess they called an operation.They went in. Got over manned. And turned and said, "Fuck it" They wasted the lives of those men who died. they should've either completed the goddamn mission or never have started in the first place. Somalia a shit hole because back in the day the Warsaw pact and Nato politically armed certain tribes to give strategic areas to their Nato/Warsaw Pact allys. Next time clean your mes
Remodemha 8 months ago
@Remodemha I'm sorry to break your little bubble, but I'm not American, dude, and I can surely tell you that politicians fucked everything, I agree with you in that, but politicians were also the ones who stopped the Rangers operation, and if it wasn't for that, the whole army would have torn apart the whole damn Bakara market. ou should be glad of the American politicians, they saved the asses of thousends of Somalies, because the soldiers were eager to go in and kill everyone involved.
floodmaster16 8 months ago
@floodmaster16 What do you expect from civilans being under the constant pressure of ongoing military raids? The dead bodies being dragged through those streets is a symbol - its a symbol of the hate those soldiers created amongst the civilians. And blaming the politicians in DC for the failure of that mission is also very poor. Raiding a city multiple times the same way is dumb so mogadshu is kind of lesson learned the hard way.

@stakas46 Yeah, you're right about that, but I can surely tell you that if it were backwards, with Somali bodies being dragged by the American, the Somalies would be claiming that they are also savages, and we both know that.

@floodmaster16 No, you haven't said anything wrong buddy. Somalia would be a better place if anyone of these idiots carrying rusty old AK's knew how to at least read and write their own names.

And these other savages that think they will save Somalia in the name of Allah, good luck. Because, Allah will be no where to be found when you're not working hard to get to where you want.

@Axmedkoole Killing them wont change a bit. We don't have to fight those gunslingers but if we want to bring order to Somalia or any other country we have to win the economic and social battle. Those warlords can only exists as long as there is a society that supports them - willingly or unwillingly. Once you are able to give a real opportunity you wont be seen as occupants but as allies.
Best examples are the advancements of germany after WW2 or how the soviets where pushed out of the oman.

@Yesckfans But which I sources am I gonna trust, one from a country with no government or one with a Government. Also you have to remember even women and children had weapons in Somalia, and they wanted to kill US troops due to Aidids propaganda bullshit of telling lies like "theyll come and steal your children". On the weapons side the Somalis mainly had access to AK47 and probably FN FAL. This are very powerful weapons and could be easily found in bakara market.
01Laffey 9 months ago
@Yesckfans It was a UN effort, if you will give it a month, i am sure the whole somalia will be wiped out, not just mogadishu. Even if only the U.S. forces where there from start to the end, fighting all their militiamen plus those non-militia men woman and children. I am sure the whole of somalia will still be wiped out. The UN stand was to raid and defend, while the militiamen and the pretending innocents was there to fire at will to UN forces.

@Yesckfans Because Aidid is a totally reliable source.
You do realize that the US army has more than just helicopters and humvees right? You wish 100 rangers is the US army's potential. If we wanted, we could have reduced Somalia to a series of craters in the ground. Every square foot.
Instead, we decided to try and help the starving people there. The only reason the US left was politics.
