MOGADISHU, Oct 9 (Reuters) - Somalia's powerful Islamists on Monday declared holy war against Horn of Africa rival Ethiopia, which they accused of invading Somalia to prop up the shaky interim government."Starting from today, we have declared jihad against Ethiopia," Islamist leader Sheikh Sharif Ahmed told a news conference, while wearing combat fatigues and clutching an AK-47 assault rifle.

Prayers are needed as we know the west won't have time to care about these people!
"A Kenyan woman collapses after viewing the body of Italian nun St, Leonella Sgorbati at the Consolata Shrine in Kenya's capital Nairobi, September 21, 2006. Sgorbati was killed in Somalia's capital Mogadishu last Sunday in an attack that drew immediate speculation of links to Muslim anger over the Pope's recent remarks on Lslam."

Starting from today, we have declared jihad against Ethiopia

OK, so they single out another country. What's the news anyway? The SATANIC religion of Islam has a jihad declared against THE WHOLE WORLD as our western leaders fiddle and 3rd world countries fall to Islam.
Ethipia has been around longer than any Arab or Muz. they will be around when the jihad vermin are no more..
Good. Now where do I send my check so that Ethiopia can buy ammo?

Somali Islamists = Salamis
I would think that the Ethiopians could take care of themselves. Although I would give them some modern equipment. They won't be fighting the Italian Army, so spears won't do this time.
Give Ethiopia some of our older F14's and F4's.
Or better yet, send over a dozen or so F15's and a few Spooky's. Add in a dozen daisy cutters for good measure.
I wouldnt exactly say Somalia's islamists are powerful...obviously Reuters hopes so
"They don't need f-14's the have the Ark of the covenant."
They gonna beat the Somalis over the head with it?
But then they kicked the Somali's butt (was it in the 70-ies or 80-ies?). Of course they were the Soviet stoogies and were helped by the Cubans, but still. I hear that the old Emperor soldiers were fighting bravely.
What a beautiful cross! God bless the Ethiopian Christians.
Ethiopa needs Haile Selassie type leaders.
