The Washington Post's Article: Ethiopia's Iraq

Post by Gedo_Boy »

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co ... 02114.html

One part I found funny:

"The Somalis were mercenary but unreliable. One official recalls how the CIA distributed matchbooks in Somalia offering a $10 million reward for the capture of Osama bin Laden. The Somalis complained that they were being cheated because a CIA Web site was offering a $25 million reward."
