Know thy enemy, know thyself, and you will be invincible. (pt 2)

And when we get our hands on Al-Qaeda correspondence regarding operations in Africa, we have a great opportunity to learn more about our enemy.

This part really lept out at me:

"The Somali experience confirmed the spurious nature of American power and that it has not recovered from the Vietnam complex. It fears getting bogged down in a real war that would reveal its psychological collapse at the level of personnel and leadership."

Never. Again.
