If you have not heard before, the Ethiopian troops(America's Ally in the so called war on terror) are destroying the Somali people's hopes of obtaining peace. Although they kill, rape, torture, behead, and commit ruthless and listless crimes against the somali people and agianst humanity as a whole, they were alone in being the lone invading army to be performing such a horrid task. This was the case untill now.
As of July 1st, 2008, the Ugandan army joined the masacre of the somali people giving more arsenal to the Ethiopian invation by destroying whatever the Tigrees left over. Here we go again!
Reports in somali news web sites indicate that the Ugandan soldiers are attacking the civilians with artillary and rockets and are targetting civilian areas. According to DalkaNews.com, there are more than ten civilians killed by the shelling and many are injured and are expected to die because there are no open hospitals functioning in the city. The number of casualties from the Ugandan troops' shelling to civilians areas of Mogadishu is expected to reach in the hundreds with the next few days.
It is unfortunate act by the Ugandans considering they enjoyed peace fromt he Alshabab and UIC's fighters in the past. This shelling and the killing of the somali people in their own country is an act which must not be tolerated by the world, specially by the Somali people and anyone else who cares for lives of human beings. I regret to hear this attrocity which no country or union that has any significance in the face of this earth cares about.
It was just last month that the United Nations made decision clear to bring UN peace keeping force to Somalia. However everyone knows the fact is that unless the Bush administration wants this force to go, they can't come to Somalia regardless of what the UN says. So, the consensus is that the UN is working hard to rather put together an African force to support the Ugandans. Now that the Ugandan's are starting to become infamous, bringing more Africans to Somalia would be a difficult task is an understatement. If the purpose is to keep peace, then peace must first takes place. With Ethiopians and now Ugandan killing civilians, raping women, and destroying every building or business in Mogadishu, on a continued basis, peace is no where in sight. So bringing more troops only means killing more civilians and that is destructive, not constructive.
The somali people see the Ugandan's support for Ethiopian invaders an act that is common to all foreign troops further strengthening the hatred between other African nations and Somali people. Therefore, it appears that any force from Africa would be a target for tactical attacks by the armed resistance in the country. So then, why is the UN or US planning to start more violence byarming, financing and then bringing them to Mogadishu? Maybe, the plan is to eliminate the Somalis from their country so its natural resources can be stolen. After all, the gas price is too high nowadays.
