"Damn it, these conditions are absolutely impossible to agree to..."
The United States, the White House.
Because of the Somalia incident, American public opinion has almost exploded in the past two days. Since the end of the Vietnam War, the United States has not been slapped in the face like this.
Now, in the small country of Somalia, so many people have died and so many people have been captured. This is simply a hunting dog digging out the anus of a tiger. How can this be tolerated?
After the incident, the United States immediately sent negotiation experts.
Now, Aidid finally made a condition, but this condition made Clinton furious.
Not only Clinton, but everyone in the conference room was like this.
What is a lion's mouth? Aidid is now a lion's mouth.
First of all, the US military withdraws all its troops from Somalia, and the United States can no longer fund the Somali interim government.
Just this one, the United States will never agree. What a joke, Somalia is such an important position, just because of these more than a thousand people, the United States will withdraw from Somalia and give up the overall situation. This is simply a joke.
The compensation later was even more outrageous. The total amount of compensation demanded by Aidid exceeded 10 billion US dollars.
Let's take a look at the compensation reasons Aidid found. For a Somali soldier who was killed, Aidid directly offered a pension of millions of US dollars.
A building destroyed by the United States would cost hundreds of millions of US dollars. It was also said that the United States blew up the infrastructure, and the compensation was also very high.
Aidid even wrote down the mental damage compensation for the Somali people.
The total value exceeded 10 billion US dollars. And Aidid did not ask for US dollars directly, but for materials.
Find a third-party country, give the money to the third-party country, and then let the third-party country buy materials and send them to Aidid.
These materials include food, medicine, various building materials, machine tools, steel, and even weapons and equipment.
In this way, the United States can no longer give.
If these materials are given to Aidid, Aidid can completely win the hearts of the people in the area under his control with these materials.
By that time, it would be equivalent to the compensation from the United States directly supporting Aidid.
"Have you found out the source of Aidid's weapons?"
Clinton asked gloomily. The main reason why the US military suffered a big setback in Somalia this time is that Aidid has a lot of advanced weapons.
What shocked the United States the most was that Aidid and his men actually had anti-tank missiles, and according to current intelligence, these anti-tank missiles may be the Javelin anti-tank missiles that have not yet been officially put into service in the United States. This is the most terrible thing.
"At present, we have not made much progress, and our people cannot obtain more intelligence. The original intelligence system has completely lost contact, but it is certain that Somalia has portable anti-terrorism missiles and anti-tank missiles. And the anti-tank missiles are very similar to our Javelin. From the current intelligence, they are even exactly the same. We suspect that there may be leaks and arms reselling within us. This batch of weapons is likely to have come from our side. We are now investigating..."
When the director of the intelligence agency finished talking about this, everyone looked extremely ugly.
Damn, the Javelin anti-tank missiles that have not been officially put into service in the United States have been used by the Somali armed forces. The target is still the most advanced main battle tank of the United States.
This time, the US military industry suffered heavy losses, especially the Shadow and M1A1 tanks. In the past, these two equipment were weapons and equipment that many countries begged to buy but could not buy.
Now, many countries that originally planned to buy these two weapons and equipment at high prices have suddenly lost interest.
No matter how good the data of the weapon is, it is useless if it cannot be used in actual combat. You boasted so much about the Black Hawk, but Somalia shot down more than a dozen of you with the Stinger. You said that your tanks are awesome, but the Somali armed forces directly shot down your tank battalion with anti-tank missiles.
This is not a land overlord, this is simply a walking coffin. How can such weapons and equipment be sold?
In this world, no matter how advanced the weapons and equipment are, their value will plummet once they are destroyed. For example, the US stealth fighter F117 was quickly eliminated after one was shot down in Yugoslavia.
The same is true for other weapons. Now that the reputation of the Black Hawk and M1A1 has been broken, it will be difficult to sell these two weapons in the future.
"Everyone, tell me, what should we do next?"
Clinton asked directly.
"Mr. President, this condition must not be agreed to, and compensation cannot be paid. There is no choice in this matter. Aidid must die..."
An old man said directly, and Clinton took a deep breath after hearing this.
"No other options?"
Clinton did not want to fight, after all, he was running forThe persona he established at that time was to deal with the economy.
"Mr. President, this is related to the international status of our United States, and it is also related to our strategic layout, which cannot be changed..."
The old man said directly.
Although Clinton is the president of the United States, in fact, in the United States, the president of the United States cannot make the decision on many major issues. The real decision makers are the top chaebols behind the United States. They are the real emperors of the United States, and the president is just the prime minister they choose.
"Everyone, if we take action against Somalia, do we have to ease the relationship with China? China's influence in Africa is not small..."
Clinton's words made everyone look a little ugly.
Originally, they were preparing to encircle China economically during this period, and they even detained Xu Huasheng in Canada.
Now that this kind of thing has suddenly happened in Somalia, if the United States takes action against Somalia, then it needs to stabilize China first.
Otherwise, China will definitely do something bad behind the scenes, although stabilizing China cannot guarantee that China is not bad. But the United States cannot fight with China secretly while ending up in Africa.
Moreover, although they detained Xu Huasheng during this period, they did not get the results they wanted.
Although Xu Huasheng is now in Canada, the Huasheng Group is still alive and well. Not only alive and well, the big price cuts of the Huasheng Group have almost killed the US semiconductor industry.
In the price war, American products are no match for the Huasheng Group.
Now the Huasheng Group has turned the table over, and has created a technological equality, which has lowered product prices, making many European and American companies very sad.
When something does not achieve its goal, it must be considered whether it is necessary to do it.
Interests, the United States considers interests when doing things.
On one side is Somalia, which must go, and on the other side is the Huasheng Group, which has no way to start. Therefore, the United States must carefully consider the gains and losses, and even must reconsider its relationship with China.
Although China is a big country, it is very poor after all. With the current Chinese economy, it is too difficult to catch up with the United States. It is almost impossible. At least in the eyes of Clinton and others, China is almost impossible. Thinking of this, everyone seemed to have the answer in their hearts.
