#2 I'd like to see the US run a Global Hawk mission over western Somalia until they had strong evidence of where the "Somali Court" forces hang out, then run an ARCLIGHT strike at maximum altitude down through that area. I also wouldn't tell anyone that I was doing it, and wouldn't admit it after I'd done it - just let two or three hundred iron bombs rain down from a "clear" sky on whatever location was providing shelter - preferably at o-dark-thirty at night. Leave everyone wondering if another attack is eminent, and where it might land.
