This morning, the RS(RedState.com) Insider saw Senator Feingold on CNN’s American Morning citing the US withdrawal from Somalia…
HOST: “[Your legislation] forces a redeployment of the troops because there’s a date certain that the funding will be cut off. … ”
Sen. Feingold (D-WI): “It’s just like Somalia. We had to get the troops out of there, it wasn’t working out. We didn’t take anything away from the troops”.
Also citing the US withdrawal from Somalia…
OSAMA BIN LADEN: “After a few blows, [America] rushed out of Somalia in shame and disgrace, dragging the bodies of its soldiers. America stopped calling itself world leader… I was in Sudan when this happened. I was very happy to learn of that great defeat that America suffered...”
And…
OSAMA BIN LADEN: “We believe that the defeat of America is possible … We experienced the Americans through our brothers who went into combat against them in Somalia, for example. We found they had no power worthy of mention. … America exited dragging its tails in failure, defeat, and ruin, caring for nothing. America left faster than anyone expected. … [America] gathered up its army, and withdrew in defeat, thanks be to God.”
The RS Insider recalls hearing something about what happens when people forget the past.
I called Bush’s comment line and the comment line of Al QaedacRat Reid.
I told the gal that answered for Al QaedacRat Reid’s comment line.....I told her, “I certainly did not appreciate his “We’ve Lost Comment” and then asked IF we Lost, then who won, Al Qaeda? I told her that as far as I was concerned...he prophesied defeat in to existence, by making the comment he did! She said nothing! I told her that I had skin with boots on the ground their in Iraq for over a year, was injured by and IED and if and when he’s able to go back....HE WILL, because he believed in our Mission then and STILL does!! I told her that I did not want to see the same thing happen in Iraq, that happened with “BLack Hawk Down” in Somalia. We lost the lives of American Heroes, that should have never been lost!”
All of this happened because of idiots..... (Murtha advising Clinton) sitting behind posh desks in DC making yet another political screw up decision.....wouldn’t send in more troops and equiptment needed to complete the mission, called troops home, so there was no one close enough to go in and rescue the trapped men when they were in trouble. If Reid and his ilk have their way, this bit of history will be repeated.... only on a larger scale!
Repulican Red. Just wanted to say THANKS for posting the comments from RedState.com Re: Osama Bin Laden quotes about Somalia. The Al QaedacRats need to memorize OBL’s words and know them well! The Lord God Almighty will ultimately hold them responsible for every life lost, because of their flappin’ big mouths making stupid comments and selfish politically motivated decisions!!
