  1. BZ bravo zulu the US Navy, the keeper of peace and freedom

  2. The question remains..
    Why are the U.S. military practically everywhere?

  3. This is crazy and I know it has to happen but I wish America didn’t always have to be so involved and could stay out of so much violent conflict.

  4. If America really wants to help the Somali government maybe they should do so by lifting the arms embargo that has been imposed on Somalia since the 1990s.

  5. I just hope our soldiers aren’t training future terrorists how to fight.

  6. why do yall keep reporting this video in different forms

  7. That girl in the shades is beautiful.

  8. Can’t wait for our politicians to start telling us that we need to start embracing the hundreds of thousands of Somalians who will inevitably be displaced as a result of our futile nation building efforts.

  9. JTF HOA….🇺🇸✌🏻🍻

  10. What a load of nonsense. CIA is orchestrating a of this to keep the region unstable, al-KEBAB is a global network used to keep these poor areas of the world weak and feeble so the American empire can continue to loot oil, gas and diamonds in the north while being a dumping ground for all their toxic waste. All of this is documented. They have zero intentions of defeating anyone and as they said, anyone who they train is going to be slaughtered since their locations are given beforehand to insurgents lol the US is playing both sides. Oh and the Somali gov't? you mean the president who was a History Professor at the University of Buffalo? or the son of former dictator Siad Barre? both American puppets.

  11. Omg, im getting deja vu here, Vietminh, Taliban, Contras & Sandanistas. Is it 1962 all over again, special advisors etc. Learn from your history, USA!! How many of those Danab soldiers are just training so they can learn new tactics and return to Al-Shabab? Also if half the population is starving, i doubt the other half is doing much better. Those soldiers have no muscle mass, the recoil alone could dislocate a shoulder.

  12. Suddenly me hungry for khabab.

  13. Good teach them how to fish

  14. In Africa, White bullies, Always mix into Africa politics, Why, Simple because they always choses who Elected to office, Yes, They of to be their yes man to carried out their interest, Why is white bullies so prominent in Africa, How is the even make sense, or possible???, No Black man can Rise into a white man Country, Not to mention, influences who Elected to office, So why Are they in control of Africa and there decision making? Wake Africa and African

  15. Russian backed terrorists.
    Just look at their weapons. Russian.?

  16. You know we can stop the terrorism from isis and all them with sausage just stuffing sausage and all their mouths they won't go see their God so they won't fight

  17. All the sudden smallest back in the news makes you wonder what they're trying to get us to look away from what's going on elsewhere and they don't want us to see is what they're talkin about eating even half as bad as it was when I was over there and those of you who were there know exactly what I'm talking…. about true fear

  18. If these Terrorist Group allow to takeover Somalia, Africa will never see peace, Just a matter of time, Before these terrorist will take over the entire African Continent

  19. Here we American are being taxed to help foreign people…again. Like we're their slaves so they can win and feel special. We're pimped out by violent do -gooders. Always out looking for the violent ones with their large guns.

  20. What will it take for Africa and Black People to understand that terrorism is a Growing Evil force in Africa and elsewhere, If terrorism leave undetected, Not be dismantled in Africa, Before we know it, African Families will be forced out of their Homes, communities and off of our Continent, which some of us are already doing, That will give the terrorist their desire and all the rooms, Resources to gain the necessary power that they needed to defeated the entire African Continent, Which is what they after, to be in full control, Black people and Africa must wake up to this Ash Reality, and under that Somalia unrest is an Africa unrest, Sudan and all these unrest elsewhere is an Africa problem, If not tackled on an Continental basis, The entire African Continent will be Vulnerable and consumed by insurgent, in which by then, Africa will be totally out of control By Black people which is the intended Owner, Right now, Not so much, As Black People, We have a Huge problem, If Africa and African do not[ UNITE as one UNITED Family, Instead of some countries feeling safe and don't see other African countries problem as apart of their problem, That selfishness approach will be the Black Race and African dismal down fall, Anywhere else on the Globe that we African are, we're seen as Visitors, We'll never accept as anything else, Africa is the Black man's Home, supposed to, Not so much, simple because we preferred to sleep and leave Greedy White bullies in charge and they're doing very well in undermining us, If we continued to Sleep, They'll surly reap our rewards, My Black Brothers and Sisters, Wake up and Live, Or continued to sleep and dies, Our Future is depend on one and only one thing, Our Unity, with a common, and meaningful purpose, Nothing else will save us

  21. #GodBlessSomalia #GodBlessAfricansAndAmericans working together to rid the world of violent religious extremists. 🙏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽 #GloryToAfrica!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

  22. Wow real news good job. We should promote democracy whenever we can it benefits us all. Perhaps we could donate water purification equipment to clean the poisoned wells and give some small arms and drones to the smaili freedom fighters and turn those pirates into a navy.

  23. Thank you america for spending my tax dollars to pretend this goverment has any respect in the global race for supremisy.
    You lost america…you have problems at home to correct.

  24. Is this video about minneapolis or somalia? I can't really tell

  25. Need to target the clerics preaching the hate.

  26. We must defeat The Qaeda.

  27. The barbaric regime of Saudi Arabia has funded & created these terrorist organizations such as ISIS/Al Shabab/Al Nusra/Al Qaeda. The most brutal terror networks in the world is our own so called "ally"!

  28. Why does American people like to get involved with dumb people. Worry about America 🇺🇸

  29. sorry but trumpistheGreaterTheattoAmerica

  30. The problem is , the USA is Extremely divided for the direction of the country … it’s time for two countries … the red states can do their conspiracy , culture war and isolationist … let the blue states do their humanitarian , progressive and injustice …
