The War on Terror - Latest

BBC News: Reports on two raids by US Special Forces in Africa, one successful  in Libya to capture a planner for the US Embassies attacked in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998, another a failure in Somalia, the aim to capture a Al Qaeda linked terrorists behind the recent Kenya attacks. 

Lets Get Real:

This hat takes its hat off to the US Special Forces for mounting these raids, the terrorists should never be allowed to sleep without thinking the US will come after them, also the Oval must get some credit, it gave the green light.   It is odd that President Obama is happy with Special Forces attacks and drone kills but has a problem with using the regular Army, the recent disaster with Syria.   One can only postulate that he has seen to many James Bond films, his favourite show is Homeland.    The downside from reports is that the Libyan terrorists will be tried in Federal Court, he should be debriefed first, then more water boarding then placed on Trial.   This is why President Obama is weak folks, he only goes half way.
