This is not the Somali jihadists' first threat against Uganda and Burundi. But it is much wider in scope. "Somali Islamist leader calls for Uganda, Burundi Embassy attacks," from the People's Daily Online, July 5:
A senior Islamist official from the hard-line Islamist movement of Al Shabaab on Monday called on international jihadists to attack the embassies of Burundi and Uganda throughout the world.
The troops of both African countries are currently deployed as peacekeepers in the Somali capital Mogadishu and are battling deadly Islamist insurgency led by Al Shabaab fighters.
At an Islamist organized mass rally in the northeastern Mogadishu, Sheikh Muqtar Robow Abu Mansuur, a senior Al Shabaab official speaking to Islamist supporters, called on international Islamist fighters to attack the embassies of Burundi and Uganda in the world. "We tell the Muslim youths and Mujahideens (Islamist fighters) wherever they are in the Muslim world to attack, explode and burn the embassies of Burundi and Uganda in the world," Robow told jubilant crows [sic!] who chanted "Allahu Akbar" or Allah Is Great as they waved the black flags of the group.
The Islamist officials urged Al Shabaab supporters and fighters to "finish off" the African Union peacekeeping forces who have lately been coming under constant attack....
""We tell the Muslim youths and Mujahideens (Islamist fighters) wherever they are in the Muslim world to attack, explode and burn ......"
and this is not limited to the embassies...It is what Muslims are doing ....on a global scale....It's the Islamic way....feel the love?.

The truth is in the pudding!
Hey, this is really wrong of me and a strategic no-no, but can someone convince the "youths" (a.k.a. 'misunderstanders') that there's a combined Uganda/Burundi embassy here in America - that it's a big one - a really big one - and it's located at 49th Street and The East River in NYC.... You know guys.... the tall wide-rectangular fifty-or-so floor glass building with the theater-looking structure attached to it........ yeah, that's it, that's the place - all of it - it's a really big embassy..... not that we want anything to happen to the structures or the people inside, but if you were to target the Uganda/Burundi embassy, that would be it.... we wouldn't want any innocent people in NY to get hurt, right ?
Somali jihadist leader: "We tell the Muslim youths ... wherever they are in the Muslim world to attack, explode and burn the embassies of Burundi and Uganda"
And we tell our governments: "These hate preachers should be targeted and killed on the spot."

Somali "diplomacy" in action. Well, that, and piracy.
And they wonder why people in other countries don't support them.
Has this way of action added anything to the quality of people's lives? No. It only seems to bring more misery and strife.
It doesn't say much for any way of life if they have to fight to keep people in it.
Hopefully, what happened to European Communism will happen to Islam, and soon.
