The Islamist group al-Shabab has claimed responsibility for the killing of a senior Somali military official and his bodyguard in south Mogadishu.
Colonel Farah Abdulle Ga’al and his bodyguard died when a landmine concealed under the colonel’s chair exploded after he arrived at work.
Earlier on Sunday, a woman and her five children were killed when a mortar round exploded in north Mogadishu.
Another two people were reported to have been killed in the southern part of the city.
Somalia has been politically fragmented since 1991 and the country’s transitional government, faced with an insurgency, is dependent on international aid and Ethiopian military support.
Wherever you are in the world, wherever you find Islam, you will find strife. You will also find Western (Christian) governments paying the Muslims to help them clean up their messes. Even in our countries, we have Muslims preaching hate against us in their mosques, and we’re paying them to loaf on welfare while they outbreed us.
They do not know how to play nice – not with us, and not with each other. They do not wish to adhere to the Christian principals of togetherness, teamwork or love-thy-neighbor. Instead they want to kill and maim in the name of their false desert prophet. That is not a religion – it is an abomination.

I totally agree. I fear the western world will be destroyed by these fanatic
lunatics. What’s worse is that the western world seems to be helping them! I
wish this wasn’t happening, but it looks like the Muslims just may manage to
force their crap on the entire world. And all because of political correctness
and cowardice on the part of western world leaders.
