re: #418 Naso Tang

Who said anything about invading Somalia and attempting to build an impossible tribal state? I sure didn’t.

This isn’t a state in any real sense of the word. It is a territory ruled by a mishmash of warlords. We should go after them just as we do with the Taliban in Pakistan and elsewhere when we know where they are.

Yes… and then unless we build a functioning state before we leave then new warlords will rise up to take over once we’re gone.
