The NYT is no different than that woman extorting admission prices to see American carnage. They do the same thing in their "paper of record."

I know the remains from the soldiers who were dragged through Mogadishu were returned but did they get all of them? It's sick to think that there may be some of these savages with bones and remains of the brave men they murdered and mutilated.

Yes, all bodies were returned and now rest peacefully for eternity in the USA.

From the Article.

"It is the battered nose of a Black Hawk helicopter, from one of the two that got shot down in Mogadishu on Oct. 3, 1993, in an infamous battle that killed 18 Americans, led to a major foreign policy shift and spawned a big movie."


MY edits in CAPS.

"It is the battered nose of a Black Hawk helicopter, from one of the two that got shot down in Mogadishu on Oct. 3, 1993, in an infamous battle that killed 18 Americans, led to a THE FIRST major foreign policy DEBACLE OF THE CLINTON ADMISTRATION and spawned BIN LADEN TO ATTACK AMERICA AGAIN AND AGAIN BECAUSE HE SAW THE ADMINSTRATION AT THAT TIME AS WEAK."

How's that for an edit?
