Real footage is shown to prove that the film Black Hawk Down (2001) was very true to the real events that occurred in Mogadishu in 1993. Actual militia and US rangers are interviewed to tell us the different sides of the conflict when Somalia was under the power of Aidid.

    Another sad example showing the US troops had NO idea what they where doing.

      Umm, I’m a non-American and let me tell you that you are absolutely wrong. “The Marine Corps has no idea what it’s doing”? Laughable.

    Amazing documentary. Goes to show that bravery on both sides is always commanded by the cowards in the background. Shame that bravery isn’t used to stop the fighting rather than starting it.

      Wrong, dummy. The Battle of Mogadishu took place in the fall of 1993; the Lewinsky scandal didn’t break until 1998. Nice try though.

        Clinton’s popularity was still very low when he commenced these actions.
        The death of the rangers was revenge for the hellfire missiles fired
        into a meeting of Somali elders . . who were actually debating
        capitulation to U.S./Israel demands . . dummy. This was in the midst of
        his second election and he wanted to appear “Tough”. Why did he grant
        China “most favored nation status”? Why did he not interfere in Rwanda,
        where military action might of actually saved lives? The U.S. has always
        supported its despots. It wasn’t because of monica lewinsky, ok, but
        you tell me, why were we in Somalia? A: Oil. At Least strigiformes has intuition!

    Intelligence was well prepared for this mission…….Go figure. An African leader used religion and drugs to gain a militia following and belief from the people.
    Great comment referring to the comparison with Vietnam deaths.

    As a 28 year veteran, and yes I was there in 1989 and again in 1992. Unless you have been there and “felt” the hatred you don’t have a clue. But let me tell you kids…” It’s Coming” . I just hope you are all up to the task because I am tired.
