Chapter 1697 (1/2)
”Nothing, just curiosity. It can be regarded as dispelling my doubts. I'm still interested in the secrets behind the world. ” Qin Feng said with a smile.
Clinton sat back.
”About this, I think you should know what happened a year ago.” Clinton said.
Qin Feng nodded.
What Clinton said is the Black Hawk incident.
In this case, Hollywood remake it into a classic film: ”Black Hawk falling”.
It's simple. In 1993, when the US military conducted military operations in Somalia, there was an accident. Due to incorrect intelligence, two Black Hawk helicopters were shot down by RPG rockets. And triggered people throughout the city to attack the U.S. military. After several hours of fierce fighting, most of the 120 US troops successfully returned to the base with the support of reinforcements.
In fact, in terms of war results, the US military is victorious.
Because the other side is a tactical team besieged by thousands of people.
But later, because the American reinforcements have been taking the way of huluwa saving Grandpa.
As a result, American forces were trapped in Somalia and eventually besieged by Somali Island forces.
In fact, in the end, Americans are also winners.
The war damage ratio of both sides is not at the same level.
However, with the release of relevant photos and videos of American soldiers dragged along the streets by Somali pirates, it is completely different.
This has led to great pressure on public opinion in the United States and international public opinion.
In the end, it became a failed military operation.
But in fact, the United States opposed the heavily armed Somali pirate legion with 100 people, and there were nearly 10000 pirate legions.
In the end, the United States killed 19 people, captured 1 and injured 70. In exchange for a great victory in killing 1000 enemy troops.
In terms of advanced weapons, the Somali pirate corps had RPG rockets, heavy machine guns and armed vehicles, although they were not as well equipped as the U.S. military. But there are also many heavy weapons.
Moreover, the US military was trapped in four strongholds and scattered. This has led to great defensive pressure on the US military.
Even so, it also killed 1000 people and injured thousands of people.
But obviously, when a prisoner of war was paraded through the streets, it still aroused domestic anger.
”Therefore, outsiders say that the reason why they did not go to Rwanda to maintain peace at that time was because of the Black Hawk incident.” Qin Feng said.
This is what the outside world says.
Because of the Black Hawk incident, the United States has been extremely passive.
The Clinton administration gave up sending troops to Rwanda completely.
In particular, the entire United Nations did not move at that time.
It is also normal that the United States does not move.
But unexpectedly, it eventually led to the massacre of millions of people.
Moreover, this is a rough estimate.
In fact, at the beginning of the war, Hutu massacred Tutsi.
Later, the Tutsi armed forces fought back.
After that, another wave of massacres broke out.
After all, a tooth for a tooth is very reasonable.
But because the whole of Rwanda was close to national collapse at that time, there was no detailed data at all.
