The Ethiopian army is fairly well equipped and professional. Ethiopia is primarily a Christian nation and they don't want a Taliban-style government next door. They better take care of the muslims now or they will surely have to fight them later after the radicals have an opportunity to arm and train them.

Ethiopia was also the only area not overrun by Muslim Empire of old.

I'm with you. Let the Ethiopians clean up the vipers nest. I hope they can. Those Muslims fight very dirty and having it taken care of locally is much preferable to them whining to the UN to come in and help (the useless fools) or expecting the US once again to save the day for everybody.
