You will be interested in these sites... A pbs timeline.... pbs.org The site above shows references as well..... somaliawatch.org Did Bin Laden actually “hunt down Americans” in Somalia? Was he the one responsible for killing the 12 American servicemen after shooting down two American Helicopters in Mogadishu city on Oct. 3, 1993? Was he also responsible for killing eight American servicemen in August of the same year in the city? Where was El Itihad El Islami (the Islamic Union) movement then, what role did it play? I recall when I was in the Somalian capital at that time that two American “Black Hawk” helicopters crashed in Hamarawen District, west of Mogadishu, and with them the American might was crashed; especially when the American president at that time Bill Clinton declared that he will withdraw his forces from Somalia within six months. What increased the American frustration that day was the appearance of the American prisoner pilot Michael Dorant with his head down on the television screens, imprisoned in one of the headquarters of General/Aidid. This scene was preceded by the pictures of the body of a pilot from the victims of the two helicopters dragged along the streets of the capital by Somalis, which invoked the disgust of Americans and others around the world.
