Obama Administration May Support Somali Faction

****************************EXCERPT***************************

The White House is nearing a decision to provide support to al Shabab's mortal enemy, the Ahlu Sunna Waljama'a, which is vehemently opposed to Sharia Law, al Qaeda, radical Islamic fundamentalism, and jihad against anyone not in favor of Sharia. Ahlu Sunna Waljama'a has been in pitched and protracted battles with al Shabab and has shown signs of promise, which has led some of President Obama's advisors to recommend arming, training and otherwise supporting the group in a textbook example of asymmetric warfare via the employment of regional factional proxies.

**********************************************************

Any reservations with posting threads with articles from there?....

Excerpts of course...

Interesting. This paramilitary group fall under the teachings of the Sufi traditions. One of the few non-war mongering sects within Islam. Perhaps we will have to give zero at least a partial thumbs up if he allows his Intel Agencies to work along this line. Time will tell.
