I'm not surprised they're making a another movie since there are only a few battles in recent history where that many American soliders died in a day and helicopters getting shot down.

Judging by the somali guy in the movie saying it waa the happiest day of his life . This movie is just going to cement are reputation as a violent peoples. I can already tell it's gonna be a big success since that trailer was no joke.

Apparently they were asking for recognition for their contribution from the americans until the US recognized their effort in 2013. Are they the Muslim version of plz saar?

We need to get together like the yahu and form organizations to promote education, rebuilding our lands, etc otherwise you are correct, we will be basically extinct like calibeysteen.

It's looking horrible now. We have too many unstable autsitc ciyaals and grown men running around and causing havoc on social media and undecated oodeys who lack in any intelligence ruining Somalia. We are too far gone.

The UNOSOM operation was initially received well until their started overstepping peoples boundaries.

1st bullet in the conflict was fired by the americans.

Bloody Monday raid - Wikipedia

Lets see if the gaalo will include this to their
”documentary”.

Surprisingly it was even reported by the New York Times at the time . That single action was responsible for cementing widespread hostility towards them.

From the New York Times

https://www.nytimes.com/books/99/03/14/reviews/990314.14finnegt.html

"The hunt for Aidid was a fiasco. In July helicopters under United Nations command fired high-explosive TOW missiles into a house where a meeting of Habr Gidr clan elders was being held. There were 250 casualties, including 54 dead, according to the International Committee of the Red Cross. Four Western journalists who rushed to the scene were also killed, by a furious mob. ''The journalists' deaths focused worldwide anger on the Somalis,'' Bowden writes, ''but in Mogadishu the shock and outrage was over the surprise attack.'' This was not the only massacre perpetrated from the air. Aidid, defiant and uncaptured, became a folk hero, and the United Nations, particularly its helicopters, became widely hated in Mogadishu."

The single action that did more than any other to cement Somali hostility and to unite the different clan factions in Mogadishu against the Americans was the massacre of a meeting of Habr Gedir clan elders on July 12, 1993. They had convened their meeting to discuss peace proposals Admiral Howe had put to them the previous day. Cobra gunships armed with TOW missiles and 20 mm cannons attacked the house, with ground troops finishing off the wounded."

Black Hawk Down is like 9/11 to American's , a single incident or event that happens to them is more important and has to be kept as a constant reminder but entire massacres and bombing campaigns of innocent non-Americans that go one for days, and weeks, months doesn't matter, but if they retaliate in response they are violent bad people. Go figure.

List of identified martyrs that was massacred by US Helicopters before they event obsess over @El Nino happened. All of them innocent ordinary citizens and integral members of society. Even pregnant housewives, children and babies were among them.

Alot of them were important peace brokers as well. They love to imagine Black Hawk Down as a horrific violent day to remember, but the Bloody Monday Raid was just a combat OP to them.

I believe Somalis should make their own documentary and re-tell their own story with the special emphasis on Bloody Monday Raid and the whole UN/US faux mission.

There is soo much documentary videos , materials, reporting's, testimonies and other evidence that depict the American military as violent, gruesome, racist, psychopathic, genodical and covert agenda driven. It honestly doesn't show them in positive light-

It will honour the life and memories of those that were directly impacted by them and share their side of things.

It also it will be a way of re-capturing the events as Somalis triumph over it. InshaAllah when we have the means to do this, this will be realized among other things.

I don't think Somali should partners with netflix at all and we should not create our own version in response or reaction to them. We should work independently and be largely indifferent to the hogwash and propaganda that's put out there outside of us. What we do or make is for own sake.

There are good documentary Somali film-makers like Astaan TV and other independent individuals that produce stuff relevant to a Somali audience. We can reproduce them in English and Arabic later on but as secondary.

Astaan TV even made a pretty good high quality documentary on the history of an iconic Somali university.

Astaan Tv made a documentary on the history of Lafoole University and the process of retrieving university documents that were lost during the destructive civil war.

They have retrieved a pretty sizable collection of documents.

It's important we document, collect details about events that happened and tell our own story so that other Somalis know about what actually went down and so that future generations can access it. Also so they don't fall victim to the politically motivated propaganda out there.

As long as we understand the true realities that's what matters the most to me. I could care less if people somehow are led to believe this fiction that we are ''violent people'' or they find a few sell out Somalis to participate in those productions.

Thay night in Mogadihsu Around 100 U. S soldiers were holed up in a building and managed to take many hostages, mostly women and children as human shield. Aidiid commanders argued and even fist fight t broke out between militia leaders what to do. The main commander brought heavy weaponery and wanted to blow the soldiers and civilians all together , but around midnight elders intervened and said we lost enough somallis to the constant helicopter gunfire, we can't loose the hostages, they were around 80 hostages.

About 500 somalis were killed that day
