so what this tells me is negotiations, talks, trying to "understand" the islamists didn't work, but when they're threatened with true violence aimed in thier directon they cower, run and hide??
doesn't this go directly against how the rest of the world says we should deal with islamic fanatics? (AND prove violence is the only thing they understand??)
You would think. But, the diplomats and the UN are really, really, really, super duper smart and they say we need to negotiate. I mean really the Ethiopians are like, African tribesmen, what do they know about the psychology and the root causes of terrorism and islamists.
