How percent of Americans are aware that the United States has been at war in Somalia for over 20 years?
America's involvement with this West African nation started during the Cold War as the U.S. scoured the globe looking for allies against the U.S.S.R. It evolved over the decades into the never-ending, soul-crushing, immoral, civil rights-erasing, War on Terror with several corrupt CIA twists and turns along the way.
The result is a war-torn country, millions displaced, hundreds of thousands dead and a bunch of rich American military contractors.
The story of America's involvement in Somalia should make one question the claim that America is a force for good in the world. How can a country driven by Judeo-Christian principles pursue a war like this?
