@CaptainAmerica322 Conoco Inc., the major multinational corporation to mantain a functioning office in Mogadishu throughout the two years of nationwide anarchy, directly involved in the U.S. government's role in the U.N.-sponsored humanitarian military effort. ConocoPhillips - the largest energy company in the US and FIFTH LARGEST OIL REFINER in the world. Go back to sleep.

@CaptainAmerica322 According to documents obtained by The Times, nearly two-thirds of Somalia was allocated to the American oil giants Conoco, Amoco, Chevron and Phillips in the final years before Somalia's pro-U.S. President Mohamed Siad Barre was overthrown and the nation plunged into chaos in January, 1991. Read a book.

The Marines did an excelent Job and the somallis learned that The Marines were not intemidated by them. After the rangers Lost less than 30 people Clinton pulled out after American reaction to the press coverage. Adids son was a US Marine by the way. I thought we should have turned up the heat on effort to get Adid. any time you use force the is every liklyhood that there will be some casulties.

fuckin liberal media dick sucks, DON'T FUCK WITH MARINES
Nice comment. ! I was with the 24th MEU. People were being bullied by gang brothers with weapons. We would disperse food and they would get robbed or killed by their fellow brothers a block a way. Pak army did shit for there brothers. Pussies I might add. I fired a AT4 at one of your brothers in a truck. After that I continued to disperse food to the weak people. The Pak army shit there pants, maybe you should have helped and supplied them with diapers you coward!
