Somalia Jihad Update. "Heavy fighting rocks Somali capital," from Agence France-Presse:
MOGADISHU (AFP) - A civilian was killed in heavy fighting that rocked the Somali capital on Tuesday, shattering a week-long lull in clashes between Ethiopia-backed government forces and Islamist-led insurgents.
Rival sides pounded each other with heavy artillery, mainly in southern Mogadishu, an AFP correspondent reported.
"A mortar landed in a house where it killed a civilian and wounded four others," said Ahmed Abdullahi, a resident of northern Sanaa neighbourhood.
Abdullahi said the shell was a stray fired from the battle zones that were inaccessible due to the fighting.
Ethiopian-backed government forces have been battling Islamist-led insurgents since the beginning of the year, when the guerrillas were ousted from the country's southern and central regions.

What turn of events. Back in late April everything was coming up roses. Appearences can be deceiving.

I guess they are like fire ants, just when you think they are out of your yard, they mysteriously come back.
Where are the Somali fire ants coming from?

How about the Clinton Doctrine in Somalia? Cut and run as soon as a Jihadi kills a US soldier?

MOGADISHU (Reuters) - Up to 60 Somali intelligence officers stormed a U.N. compound in Mogadishu on Wednesday and seized the World Food Program's local chief of operations at gunpoint.

Just wait for President Hillary to send another "humanitarian" mission to starving people in Somalia and Darfur. OBL has vowed to fight "crusaders" in both African countries.

Somali Intelligence Officers - Now there is an interesting collection of words.
Almost as good as the Saudi Human Rights Commission.
LOL.

Looks like they couldn't let something as terrible as peace, quiet, calm and civility spoil a good jihad...

(no wonder the folks from the northern tier of old "British Somaliland" would secede in a heartbeat if given the chance to get away with it)
otherwise,
"...long & healthy war..."

Why don't we send back all those Somali cab drivers in Minneapolis, KC and Phoenix; since they are trying to impose Islamic bullshitery at our airports. I wonder how many fares they can get in Mogadishu.

Wonderful to hear of others killing jihadis.
These bastards are well worthy of destruction.
To think this is going on without the help of George Bush. Wow - so all you irrational and lefty Bush haters cant blame him for this. Maybe the ACLU can go over to Mogadishu and fight for the jihadis. Or the commies at NYU (hey alumni - aint you proud of the bastards running your former university ?)
And it's a muslim govt. doing the mopup isn't it ? These jihadis kill mostly muslims dont they ?
A dead jihadi is the preferred one.

Of course none of this will be reported on our MSM. Mean while we get to hear about a pervert in Las Vagas or something about the blond whores boy friends or Al Gore's favorite topic! Sickening just sickening!
Romans 3:12-18
All have turned away from God; all have gone wrong. No one does good, not even one. Their talk is foul, like the stench from an open grave. Their speech is filled with lies. The poison of a deadly snake drips from their lips. Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness. They are quick to commit murder. Wherever they go, destruction and misery follow them. They do not know what true peace is. They have no fear of God to restrain them.
الرومان 3:12-18
لقد ابتعدت كل من عند الله ؛ جميع ذهبت خطأ. لا أحد صالحا ، ولا حتى واحدة. وبغض النظر عن الحديث هو خطأ ، مثل الراءحه الكريهه من مفتوح خطيرة. الكلام مليء الاكاذيب. سم الأفعى قاتل القطرات من الشفاه. افواههم مليءه اللعنه والمراره. انهم يسارعون الى ارتكاب جريمه قتل. اينما ذهبوا ، والدمار والبؤس متابعتها. انهم لا يعرفون ان السلام الحقيقي. ليس لديهم خوف من الله الى الحد منها.
When I found these verses I was thinking of Islam but it fits the MSM pretty close as well.

More muslims have been killed by muslims than by any other group of people.

And yet they blame the infidel for their troubles.
Can you enlighten us on this phenomenon Naseem? It seems to defy logic. Oh wait, we're talking about islam. Never mind I think I have it figured out. /sarc

I hope all of these jihadists are exterminated! That is the only way to deal with such enemies of humanity!
