Somalia

The US has attacked Somalia based on "credible intelligence".

We also attacked Iraq based on "credible intelligence". And Afghanistan. And, for that matter, Vietnam.

Some other military exploits that actually ended a bit better for the US were based not on "credible intelligence" but "actual threats to the world" (ie, both World Wars), or meaningful ideals such as "the betterment of mankind" and "forming a more perfect nation" (ie, the Revolution, the Civil War).

Also, the Pentagon won't say if our wonderful military fighter pilots, who fly by day bombing the shit out of poverty-stricken African villages, and spend their night no doubt in luxurious hotels in Saudi Arabia or wherever, actually hit what they were supposed to. Hopefully there were no Canadians in the way and the pilots weren't hopped up on speed.
