Perhaps Bosnia?
I doubt it. The only sort of Bosnian engagement that might make sense would involve a fairly conspicuous effort with a large number of troops. I can't see what a few thousand Green Berets could accomplish there.
Frankly, I'm quite puzzled by these signs. I can't think of any country that seems due for a quick invasion by the USG, but the increase in granularity of the GPS information suggests an operation of greater magnitude than just a strike against terrorists, drug cartels etc.
Is it time for Bay of Pigs II already ? ;)
Perhaps it is two unrelated events. Maybe the Russians are using GPS in their attack on Chechnya, and the administration decided "Not on our dime." The call up could possibly be related to the repatriacion of the Hatian boat people or even a continued presence in Hatii. I think Atistede still needs lots of proping up. The Ton-Ton Macoutes, from Baby Doc and Papa Doc's dictatorship were the police and military of the previous one. They just vanished into the population. Its almost the perfect guerilla force, just the thing the berets are into. This would be much more likely if the individual was of African decent. From what I have heard, prior to any military action in Hatii, we had a sizable force of Special Forces, Green Berets and other elete troops in place. Most of them were black. This was because they blended in with the populace. Perhaps the forces on the ground needed to be rotated and personnel came up short. I don't know...but if it is anything we, should find out real soon. Manditory crypto thought...I wonder if the government has taken any steps to prevent the INTERNET from being used for C3 functions, like it was used during the gulf war by Iraq. (I know...I know...pretty weak, but the communications has to have been encrypted. :) ) Sam BTW-You always do this to me Louis...I was just going to go to bed, and boom I'm up another hour.
