Screw them. The last time we did this, everyone with a gun in the whole city came out to fight. Let them starve, they will only murder the people who come to help them.

What did Sam Kinesen say about it:

“Of course your starving! You live in a desert!! MOVE!!!”

Of course I am not suggesting helping them. What have we got when helping the Islamic world (Lebanon, Bosnia, Iraq, Somalia)? Only payback in bloodshed and headaches. Can any Dem. explain to me what's Obama's "strategy" in Libya?

Charity is supposed to be one of the five pillars of Islam. Let the ragheads pony up some money and manpower. I suspect that there will not be much money nor many volunteers.

Just as the overall (bulk of the Islamic wealth:) Gulf-Arab-Wealth gives (lamost NOT!) to any Muslims in bad shape, at any time anywhere.

Trouble is, too many of them have moved. To Minnesota, among other places.

Hey you Idiot Somalis, melt some of those guns down into Plows and start farming,even with that tiny brain, you can figure it out!

Thanks a_note.

The guerrilas are not unified (nice way of saying, they fight amongst themselves), and there’s an internationally recognized (UN, US, EU) provisional government which is also backed by neighboring African states.
