More slaughter from our friendly neighbohood jihadists, I'm sure.... waiting for terror group to claim "credit" but in Somalia now it's generally al-Shabab (Al Qaeda affiliate).

A good place to relocate the United Nations.

Somalia has the population density of Kansas, the climate of southern California and is astride one of the busiest ocean traffic lanes in the world.

It is the perfect location to resettle refugees from around the world and introduce the world's poorest continent to the joys of multiculturalism.

None of the hypocritical liberals have a word to say about this, but if a normal person dares to SAY that m*slims all over the world are killing other m*slims, he’s called “islamophobe.”

A few years ago we went to Kenya to see several of the National Parks.While there we had a guide named James who was outstanding in every way.We based ourselves in Nairobi so the drives to the parks were long ones during which James and I talked at length...about many things including politics.

Long story short,James (who told us he was Christian) went on and on about how bad Somalia and Somalis are..how much damage Kenya,and her individual citizens,have suffered thanks to Somalis.

His words are confirmed by advice that just about every Western government (US,Canada,Britain,etc) gives its citizens regarding travel to Kenya."Don't go anywhere near Kenya's border with Somalia" they say "the risk of terrorist attacks and kidnappings is huge".(not an exact quote)

In fact,that despicable attack that occurred in Nairobi a few years ago (the Westgate Mall Attack) was carried out by Somali jihadists.

Blackhawk Down showed some beautiful scenery. Not necessary local. The moral at the end was pretty explicit: Stay out of here.

Maybe they will demand truck control or bomb control.

IIRC, yesterday I saw articles that had the count at 86 killed.

Checking now I see one article (from NBC) that's 6 hours old listing 85 dead, and

and UK Independent;
