    Watch this movie. It's as amazing as the Band of Brothers series. It made me hate Somalia though. :S

    Edit: couldn't get link to work, so copy and paste this for the Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Hawk_Down_(film)

    Didn't this movie make you kinda hate Somalia? Some of the deaths were so depressing. Like where the guy was in the corner, injured, then ran out of ammo... And the guy whose artery they couldn't clamp.

    yeah, I also hate the part where the Somalis didn't let the soldier take his picture of his family when he was captured.

    Depressing because of what happens to the US soldiers, or the Somalis?

    I think the UN should have given resources such as food to the Somalis, than to send soldiers.

    Equip the Somali government with arms and they'll take care of them themselves.

    Somalia doesn't have a government. It's run by the warlords.
