    I mean the US already supported Ethiopian forces moving against Somalia a few years back:

    I don't see how this pirate incident makes things BETTER for the US if it's seeking more primary military control in Somalia with it's own forces (which I kinda doubt...). We don't need it as a justification to use force at all...In fact it makes everything that much more complicated and deadly, which is something you tend to want to avoid a priori if your goal is some sort of military takeover. I just think you're making more out of it than there is.

    • you want to make a violent conflict then make it more complicated and deadly. also why would a 'military takeover' make sense in somalia?KwesiJ
    • ...make sense in somalia? this isn't an oil regime.KwesiJ
