Hey, let’s check in on Somalia:
Mortar shells rained down on homes and a small market in Somalia’s capital, killing 12 people and wounding 20, witnesses said Friday… shells landed on the market and a residential area. A doctor at Daynile Hospital said about 20 wounded, including women and children, were admitted there… The transitional government, formed in 2004, relies on Ethiopian troops for protection, but Islamic insurgents have gained steady power and launch near-daily attacks.
And yet they still found time last week to publicly whip captured civilians for drinking and hijack a chemical tanker. Enthusiastic lot, aren’t they?
