Sources close to the White House confirmed President Joe Biden approved an order to return U.S. soldiers to Somalia. The goal is to suppress the Islamist militant group Al Shabab, which, according to U.S. military leaders, poses a threat to both the Horn of Africa and the United States. The New York Times reports that in January 2020, Al Shabab was responsible for a fatal attack on a U.S. airbase in Kenya.
Sources say the number of troops to be deployed is about 450, and Adrienne Watson, the National Security Council spokeswoman, said in a statement: “The decision to reintroduce a persistent presence was made to maximize the safety and effectiveness of our forces and enable them to provide more efficient support to our partners.” The decision reverses former President Trump’s decision to pull all troops from the country in January 2021.

Joe is one tough fearless leader. All those years he spent fighting on the killing fields of Vietnam and Cambodia are paying off big time. We are so fortunate to have him as our leader now.
Joke of the year !!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks. I’ll let him know as soon as he wakes up from his 4th nap.
now he’s gonna give them $80 BILLION worth of ammunition and then pull out in the middle of the night
Biden Shmiden orders nothing. President Trump is the head of the military. Whether the US troops were sent back to the Somalia, we don’t know because the media is full of baloney.
Send Ilhan Omer back to her home country. Just the sight of her would scare off any trouble makers.
