Religious War Continues
Have you heard any of the recent news about Somalia and Ethiopia? In case you missed it, well, the two countries are at war. Somalia has a government "recognized" by the UN, but which has very little actual power. Instead, most of the country in in chaos and rebels continue to attack the "UN Recognized" government.
The fighting appears to be quite intense, but no terrorist reporters (AP) have been found on the ground for reliable reports. You can be sure there will be reports from that organization soon, as there are various large factions of terrorists in the country that will welcome their allies in the AP. For those who don't want all the details, I'll just give you the driving force behind the current battles: Islam. Seriously. Christians are the ones who have the "UN Recognized" government. The terrorists who are trying to kill and overthrow the government are ALL Muslims. Ethiopia, who is trying to help the "UN Recognized" government is mostly Christian. All the resistance to the organization and laws are Islamic terrorists. It doesn't really matter if you don't like it, that's the truth. Muslims continue their worldwide war against ANYONE who is non-Muslim with violence.

Actually, less than half of Ethipopia is Christian, but the government there is relatively tolerant, especially for the region, if you define Sudan and the Arab world as part of their region.
There are almost no Christians left in Somalia, and almost never were since the area was rediscovered by Europe. Even the tolerant, fairly well-run north of Somalia, Somlailand, has a mere pittance of believers.
It's not Islamists versus Christians, it's Islamists versus everyone else, the everyone else being mostly Musselmen who don't respect the authority of the imams du jour.

"Islamists versus everyone else"
Well, I certainly cannot argue with that statement! Thanks for stopping along with more facts and details.
