As usual, Furious chimes in with a self description.

Furious (to Martlet): Man, you are looking like a handsomehunk here. You should stop. Really.

From that I conclude you've just saw his posts for the first time.
Here and everywhere it's pretty much the same.

Keep posting your nonsense. Now that I see it is based on groundless speculation, it will bring me many good laughs. Hopefully your boy will grow up to receive a good american education, and forgive you for your ignorance.

Good Luck.

Damn, didn't get to you in time.

But, please do stop. Your posts here contain no information, only invective.

You are telling us that you have full understanding of the event, but can't be bothered to "educate" us poor handsomehunkes? Come on. That's just a lame assed cop-out.

You personally may beleive so but in the thread from which this discussion branched out it was something like this:

"Mogadishu, thats where a handfull of special forces killed about a thousand somollies." - in a sence of accomplishment rather than botched operation that was supposed to be bloodless.

and:

"I am a bit surprised that any one could believe that. Werent like 3000 somalis killed for 18 us?
The US surely wasnt beaten they just pulled out and I cant think anyone can doudt that even with that light force they could have killed thousands more." - as long as we kill a lot of people, we can't say we are at a loss, right? And any screwed up operation can be remedied this way - pile up some corpses and report a resounding victory.

IIRC, the post in question was in response to a claim that we were beaten badly. While we failed the mission, we werent exactly kicked out by force. In response to attack by militia, US forces simply defended themselves. If you are implying that we think the operation was a success because of the number of skinny KIA's, I think your really reaching.

In addition, I dont think Inspector Gadget could reach far enough with his go-go Gadget arms to imply that US forces went on a rampage of frustration, shooting civilians because they failed to capture the man.

I guess Im just failing to see where youre going with this beyond the usual "US Military = Bad bad men" and "US Military supporters = Bad bad evil armchair Nazis."

somolia, in brief

> people starving because of years of civil war

> UN sends food to feed people , war lords steal food

> UN sends in troops to distribute food to people, people now have food,( US sent marines w/armor, air planes.)

>new pres clinton pulls marines out, decides to capture war lord, US military says "we need armor back, clinton says no.

>US tries to capture war lord, helos shot down , troops traped, other US troops have to commandear paki APC's at gun point to get traped US troops out.

> clinton pulls all US troops out.

As I stated in my first post, if I felt that it was an honest quest for information, then I would be more than happy to post my opinion and the facts I have gathered and experienced. It isn't a big secret.

To do that, would be to sit down and right for an extended period of time.

He didn't post this to actually get my opinion, he pretty much stated that with his initial bulltoejam post. I'd rather banter with him about garbage than take the time to write about something I feel strongly about, when it isn't going to be read anyway.

Sorry, Martlet.

I have not placed a sigle person on my ignore list ever so far - even MG on agw.

But your posts refer to me, occupy a lot of space with worthless quotation of the whole previous posts and contain zero information - thus being an annoying distraction.
It's enough that Kanth uses my quote in his signature with my name in red, making me pause every time I scroll by.
The variety of invective you've addressed to me is apparently exhausted and you are already repeating yourself.
So save yourself the wear and tear on your fingers.
See you. Er - actually I won't... Life is too short to read all the worthless crap.

You didn't address any points in his post and topped your non-engagement with a 'go read a book, ignorant fool' response.

How can he be defeated, if you couldn't (wouldn't) take to the field?

He didn't raise any points in his post. He blathered complete and flagrant nonsense.

Why is flagrant nonsense?

Thinking faster than I type, I missed the word 'it', otherwise the sentence is fine.

Why is it flagrant nonsense?
