#3  Under Obama, the US began various operations against Al Shabaab so this has been going on a long time.

And before Obama there was the 1993 US action on behalf of the UN in Somalia, remember Black Hawk Down.

Almost 30 years of this.

To spend it is always a pleasure!
Spend hither, spend... [yawn]

And it isn't the 'there' but the treasure."

"As for the troops... oops."
