American forces have already flown surveillance flights over Somalia looking for al-Qaeda forces to target in the next stage of the global war on terror, according to The Observer. Navy pilots have flown missions to map two al-Qaeda camps near the Kenyan border with a view to launching air strikes, Pentagon sources said. US warships have positioned themselves off the coast near the capital, Mogadishu, to stop bin Laden from hiding there, and to prepare for an attack if necessary. And the Rangers are looking forward to going back and having a talk with some of their old friends. |
