Flashback: In 2017, Omar Ilhan Dismissed the Number of Americans Killed in the Black Hawk Down Attack, and Claimed Americans Had Killed "Thousands" of Somalis

Dual loyalty?

Lieutenants of Mohamed Aidid was hunted by US troops after he attacked UN peacekeepers attempting to separate factions in the Somali Civil War.

One can question the ill-wisdom of inserting US troops into a civil war without then claiming that they were acting "Satan"-ically in carrying out a UN peacekeeping mandate.




Remember, this is the woman who giggles at naive westerners who think Al Qaeda is anything more menacing than the United States army:

39 There's always this dilemma:

Statements and beliefs by hardline/extremist politicians cause sanctimonious outrage amongst his/her opponents nationwide, but only make him/her more popular in his/her home district.

Thus Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters can mouth off like Stalinist executioners, yet that only makes them more popular back amongst their base.

Same holds true for Ilhan. The more she bashes The Great Satan and worships Allah over the Constitution the more likely she is to be re-elected. And yet the more outrage she causes in the other 434 (irrelevant) congressional districts.

Most Minnesota Republicans are caricatured as fervent rural evangelists, and some of them live down to that reputation. In the Twin Cities, television and print media folks have less than zero interest in scratching below the surface of Omar's biography.

It doesn't matter if the GOP had real balls of steel or not 'cause the popular culture and political demographics of her district are more or less unmovable at this point.

Actually the Minnesota GOP did run someone against Ilhan Omar. She lost to the Democrat Party lies and the wonderful diverse Ilhan Omar. Omar actually won by a bigger margin than her predecessor, Keith Nation of Islam Ellison. We also had two incumbents beaten in the Minneapolis Saint Paul suburbs. Jason Lewis and the NeverTrumper weenie Eric Paulsen.



But we did take two long time DFL outstate seats with now Republican Congressmen. They won seats that were won by Democrats in 2016, when PDT almost won the state.

114 Any time the Mogadishu fiasco is brought up, we should never neglect to lay the blame at the feet of Les Aspin, the WORST Sec. of Defense this country has ever had. He hated the military, and he wanted to prove that the way Reagan and Bush had insisted on force was wrong - so he figured he could just have some guys stroll around Mogadishu like they were city cops and everything would turn out fine, no need for that nasty aggressive heavy equipment. The Somalis would love us so much more for that, he thought.

Regardless, even if we can't get rid of her directly, we (and I mean the RNC if it can grow some balls) has to do more than fundraise off of her anti American rhetoric.

Every démocrat representative has to be cornered as to whether they stand with her and agree with her position or against her. If they're with her, they should be punished by the sane voters in the country. If enough disavow her, she'll be marginalized and lose any power and eventually be voted out.

Pipe dream? Probably. But I can see Trump calling this out and pushing any dem contenders to put up or shut up.

175 The only positive is, if we can just grit our teeth and bear it, that Captial-"A" Assholes like this piece of shit will continue to become the new face of "Progressivism" and "The Democrats", and their whole movement will simply collapse into a steaming pile of rage and nonsense.

The unfortunate corollary is that Assholes like this piece of shit make other lower-case "a" assholes like AOC look positively tolerable by comparison.

WATCH: Another explosion went off near a church in Sri Lanka Monday after a series of bombings the day prior killed nearly 300 people; 87 bomb detonators were also found at the main bus station in capital Colombo Monday, a police spokesman says

They don't mention casualties so I assume there were none.

184 @161: "67% white does not sound like it's shoehorned full of Somalis."

Statewide demographics: 84.3% Caucasian, 5.7% African Americans, 4.5% Asians, etc.

In other words, the rest of the state is lily white, but the Twin Cities, and Minneapolis in particular, are much more diverse than everywhere else, and liberals here have a fetish about being seen as more tolerant and inclusive than their small town relatives.

Let him testify. He recalls the conversation differently. When Trump asked him if he ever said to fire Mueller, he didn't say he did. It's a different recollection.

Easy cross- examination:
If Pres. Trump wanted Mueller fired, was he empowered to do it himself? Yes.

So if he actually had "ordered" you to fire Mueller, and you did not, he had every opportunity to do so himself, correct? Yes.

You did not fire Mr. Mueller, correct? Correct.

And Pres. Trump knew you did not fire Mr. Mueller, correct? Correct.

And Pres. Trump never fired Mr. Mueller, correct? Correct.

Did Pres. Trump ever tell you he was concerned about the potential conflicts of interest of Mr. Mueller and his many team members who had been big supporters of Hillary Clinton?

Some of those investigating Pres. Trump on Mueller's team actually had attended parties fsupporting Mrs. Clinton against Pres. Trump correct? Correct.

Pres. Trump had a legitimate basis to be concerned about these potential conflicts of interest , correct?

Correct.

Let him go.

Never forget these names. Master Sgt. Gary Gordon and Sgt. 1st Class Randy Shughart. Both posthumously awarded the MOH.

Also, that little sucker of cock Les Aspin.Amid those cutbacks, U.S. commanders in Somalia requested armored
vehicles, tanks, and AC-130 gunships fearing increasing danger to U.S.
personnel. Secretary of Defense Les Aspin rejected those requests citing
U.S. policy to reduce troop presence in Somalia.
Yet those same assholes came up with the mission to capture the warlord lieutenants. Fucking stupid democrats.

One of the little-known facts is that Aidid was a fucking nobody, until the Bubba Clinton and the UN enticed many of the "moderates" into a meeting in a Mog office building, then used American Apache helicopters to blast the shit out of them.

Aidid was one of the few who didn't attend, and he had the numbers to begin asserting control in Mog afterwards.

If these mohammedan fucktards are screaming about US terrorism, then tell them the truth, that it was the fucking DEMOCRAT PARTY that did it.

And another interesting tidbit is that the Somalis were convinced that Boutros Boutros Fuckface conned the UN into being his muscle, because apparently he had close family and clan connections to some of the warlords.

It's all in Bowden's book.

Minnesota was reliably blue almost entirely because of the Iron Range communities up north; extending through northern Wisconsin and Michigan too. Old school union Democrat folks.

Also, Duluth, which is one of the largest cities outside of the Twin Cities, college town, technically not Iron Range, but Great Lakes shipping for iron ore, etc.

246 I host our son and Sri Lankan and African students, and three elderly people. I quit doing yuge groups of people because I STILL was the one doing nearly all the meal prep.


Son asked if could invite a ginger he's "friends" with, and I said "fine." And then she wanted to bring her Great Dane puppy. I asked that she not, because ELDERLY, DISABLED people, and so she declined dinner with us.

I don't understand why you can't leave your freaking dog at home for meal.

Ive always wondered why its not racist (tm) to think lump all African Americans together. Somalis are nothing like Kenyans, who are nothing like Nigerians or South Africans and even Rwandans are not identical - Tutsis are different than Hutus.

For something like Thanksgiving, you can assign them two things even. Their choice is go to your house and make two things, or stay home and do it all themselves, or go out to dinner.

261 I knew the first American to die in Somalia, SGM Larry Freedman, dean of the Delta snipers. Google "SGM Freedman Somalia" and read LTG Dan Bolger's bio on the AUSA website. He was one hell of a guy - went by "Super Jew." Bolger's writeup is good, but honestly captures about 5 percent of who Freedman was. He was larger than life.

I knew who Shughart and Gordon were, but never really had interacted with them. I knew other guys who were wounded in Mogadishu, but no one else who died.

It was not worth the lives of any of them. If they had stuck to the humanitarian mission, fine. But when we transitioned to trying to take down the warlords, that was the wrong place, wrong time.

Posted by: Adirondack Patriot at April 22, 2019 08:06 PM (ZxU8C)

324 What is particularly "interesting" about Omar defending Mohamed Farrah Aidid is that he is the reason she is a refugee.
Omar's grandfather worked for the socialist regime of Mohamed Siad Barre (the one who was so outrageous that the Soviets dropped them as a client state and the U.S. picked them up out of a sense of realpolitik). When Aidid and his fellow "opposition groups" started the Somali Civil War, Omar's family had to flee Somalia.

That's how much she hates the U.S. - she takes the side of the man who drove her family from their home in order to score points against the U.S., the country that gave her family refuge.
That's like a Holocaust refugee complaining that the U.S. killed too many Germans while fighting the Nazis.
Omar is one severely deranged creature.

They needed killing. It looks like we came up one short on the kill list, though.

I don't get the #NotTodaySatan crap. But that's rich, coming from a muzzie. And a somali, at that.

Mmmmm. Husband is in the Midwest on his annual turkey hunt/complete waste of two weeks of leave, daughter and son in law had to work so it was just me, the dog, and a 10 pound ham. Mixed some peach preserves, bourbon, and brown sugar together for a glaze. Turned out pretty good. Got lots and lots of leftovers.

So where do they get all the cadbury eggs from? Are all the poor cadburies kept captive on egg farms? Don't they ever get to fly, or flock, or whatever it is cadburies do?

But the most important question is probably: how much does a cadbury weigh.

347 I mentioned in an earlier thread that my prog sibling/sis was literally shaking over the mosque attack in New Zealand, but was radio silent on the attacks in Sri Lanka.

My husband had had just enough to drink last night that he texted her (and was waaaaaay nicer than I would have been) to let her know about the Sri Lankan attacks and how grateful we were our Sri Lankan son's Christian girlfriend (who is my new "daughter" and her family weren't killed or injured, and his family was safe.

Her terse text back. "Glad they're okay."

So I gently piled on by "reminding" her of all the Muslim terror attacks here at home and around the world. Including "workplace violence" at Ft. Hood.

She probably won't speak to me again.

That was an interesting article in the sidebar about the 737 Max. Basically, you had software people who never flew planes writing control software.

Boeing turned the 737 into a dynamically unstable design with the modifications. Computers were used to compensate. Computers which can't be overridden.

The idiots who wrote the software didn't even put "sanity checks" into, apparently. There were two computers one each side. But each computer only used one set of sensors on its side. They didn't cross-check to see if the sensors agreed. If one computer was flying the plane, it used only it's sensors and didn't bother with the other set.

Pilot and copilot always compare their instruments. If they disagree, it means one (or both) is wrong.

The computers didn't do that.

Think about it like a chemical engineer (which I'm not).

You have heat deposition from the torch, but also heat being conducted away by all surrounding wood.

You also have an adverse surface area to volume ratio. There's a lot of wood, and not much exposure to oxygen.

Similarly, turn it around. Why do people use kindling to start a fire? To minimize these two problems.

I would imagine igniting a 12 inch square beam is not that easy.

And then sometime later, there was a meeting of the leadership of the tribe, where Aidad's actions were being debated, and the US attacked the meeting with helicopters armed with TOW missiles, and killed all the leadership of that tribe.
So then, they were all pretty sore at the US, Aidad had no one who could control him.

He ended up dead about a year later of cancer or something. But he was a pretty evil asshole.

I just looked at a box, and it doesn't say where they were made. They're distributed by Jarden Home Brands in Fishers IN, which is notable because
- I was just passing through there yesterday
- It's a few exits away from Noblesville IN, where a cow escaped last month and made a run for Chik-Fil-A.

It also says "includes wood from responsibly managed forests", which is reassuring if you have to throw away a few before you get one to strike.

The didn't know if they would ever be "relieved" or picked up.

Those two guys went in armed with modified M-14's and a bunch of ammo. Between the two of them, they probably killed over 100 Somalis that were trying to get to the crash site. Finally, they ran out of ammo, where over run and killed. Both of those guys were literally torn apart. Mike Durant was beaten unconscious (he was injured with a broken back from the crash) with Randy Shugart's arm.

Mike Durant was beaten unconscious (he was injured with a broken back from the crash) with Randy Shugart's arm.

Yeah, those Somalis. What a bunch of swell guys. They were all stoked up on khat, which has an effect a lot like cocaine.

Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara at April 22, 2019 08:37 PM (9OkQ7)

Speaking anecdotally, the chestnut beams in our 250-year-old Colonial are hard as rock. And the old beams from the barn renovation were very reluctant to shuffle off this mortal coil in the nice funeral pyre we made for them.

A reason that it spread to the entire roof so quickly, I think, is that the area containing the fire was a closed space (although with plenty of air inlets) underneath a heavy roof, and there were no firebreaks anywhere in the building. Once a fire got going anywhere in that space, the entire enclosed area was going to head north of 1,000 degrees F very quickly, and at that point every piece of wood would burst into flame no matter how thick it was.
