Every day, hundreds and possibly thousands of men, women and children are dying horrible deaths due to starvation and disease in Somalia, while the food and medical supplies that have been provided in a relief effort fail to reach them because the warring factions won`t allow it.

Meanwhile, the United States sends troops into Kuwait to protect the well-fed Kuwaitis from the threat of Saddam Hussein.

Why not send our troops to Somalia to help those who are in the most dire need?
