It also said several US private security firms hired air cargo carriers and aircraft which have been "involved in the trafficking of arms to militias which the US government have designated 'global terrorists'."

The report cited Dyncorp, a company that provides security services for the US government, as having contracted Aerolift, a firm accused by the UN Security Council in 2006 of being involved in arms trading, to supply weapons to an Islamist militia that controls much of southern Somalia.

The militant group, Al-Shabab, was added by the US government to its list of terrorist organisations in March 2008 over alleged links to Al-Qaeda.

There is no way Al-Shabaab is an entity fully funded and organized by Somalis. They are ruled from Spin Ghar by the same fanatics who fund Al-Qaeda. I really believe these skinnes involved are brainwashed, ignorant savages lead to a robotic life of nothing but to destruct further.

Intaas ma lagu waano qaadan waayey.

Shouldn't this teach Somalis to stop the fight?

I think we discuss things in here..

[FAH1223]

so its not somali politics entirely... it deals with the whole continent as well, read the article
