There are two ways to look at the clip-I have not seen it.

One is a way to rally the GOVERNMENT and to give the military the ways and means to end all the BS.

We bomb a town?

TFB. We drop pamphlets before hand and tell the people WE ARE THERE TO GET RID OF THE SLOBS THAT ARE MAKING YOUR LIVES MISERABLE. Help us, we'll help you.

Or?

Let's let this poor soldier's death be the rally cry for us to tuck tail and split.
End of story, let the locals take care of their own.


Then we can wait for the next 9/11

We just have to kick a little arse to show everyone that we don't care and will not take prisoners.

How many other countries run roughshod over the people that they get involved with?

We get the short end of the stick because we follow the rules.

Hey! who remembers the pilots/crew of the Blackhawks shot down in Somalia that were stripped and dragged down the road and the private contractors that were killed and strung up on he bridge? I seem to remember there wasn't too much ado done for them.

I still do not understand.
