"Never been there, didn't do it."

The USMC denies having landed in Somalia to question locals there about suspected terrorists, as Powerline noted was reported yesterday.

I'm sure the Marine corps isn't lying. Note the carefully hedged denial:

"To my knowledge there has been no Marine activity off the coast of Somalia other than the 5th Fleet ships sailing by on their way to Iraq," he said.

(Did anyone think to ask the Navy?)
