It would help your case if you didn't "remember" bombings that didn't
happen or cite figures with no basis in fact.

ARE YOU INSANE? Anyone else here want to back this guy up and claim that
the USS Cole or the embassy bombings in Mogadishu did not occur?

If you folks want to have a reasonable discussion fine. But this type of
claim just goes too far.

Sure, what the hell...there has not been a US embassy in Somalia,
Mogadishu or elsewhere, since 1990 or 1991.

claim just goes too far.

Um, OK.

My mistake. I was thinking about the attacks in 1998 in Africa. When the
accused bombers took refuge in Somalia.

"The bombings of the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998 and the
bombing of a hotel in Kenya in 2002 are thought to have been carried out by
a Mogadishu-based Al Qaeda cell."

I stand corrected. You are hereby not insane.

However, being wrong about where a particular bombing occurred does not
negate my point.
