Remember how Bill Clinton was negotiating with the warlord that our boys died trying to capture in black hawk down?

Find the nat geo documentary on black hawk down...its very hard to find for some reason...at the end we see the father of one of the rangers who died trying to capture the warlord confront Bill Clinton saying you were negotiating with the warlord at the time our soliders dead bodies were being dragged through the streets in Mogadishu. Bills face got bright red on camera...both Clintons have our military's blood on their hands and put them in harms way carelessly without reguard.

I get what you mean, but I don't get what you're saying. All presidents have blood on their hands from some sort of military action/inaction. Regan has Beirut, Carter had the botched raid, Clinton had Mog and the original WTC attack, Bush Jr has Iraq. Are you referring that the Clintons are somehow worse than others?

I don't understand what you are going for, other than your disdain for the Clintons in general. Like SSG Swan stated, all presidents have blood of one type or another on their hands and the list is long and detailed.
In essence, if you want to bemoan the failings of presidents and politicians you hate, you have better be prepared to acknowledge the failings of those you like (which I don't believe you will because you're trolling for responses).

I don't have time now to see if this is the documentary I am talking about but its a must see.
The point is Bill was in negotiations with the warlord and did not communicate this to our military presence there who were still actively trying to capture him. Our soldiers did not have to die trying to capture the warlord. The other thing I noticed was how poorly equipped our troops were for the task. We had no armor, our commanders had to basically beg the Pakistanis to go in after our downed pilots with their armor.
The documentary is excellent and I hope the link is correct, I will watch it later this week. It shows the situation in Mogadishu and what our soldiers were up against. These Somali. Fighters were drugged most of the time fighting with no fear of death. One ranger even suggested that the Italian camp was notifying the warlord every time our choppers took off....too much to discuss atm but if this is the same documentary I hope it shows the rangers father confronting Bill...it speaks volumes.
