    Default Caspian Report's Origin of the Somali Civil War

    This is by far the best summary for the situation in Somalia today.

    It's not Masonic, its Pan-Somali...each point represents a Somali region that needed to be freed from foreign occupation:

    British Somaliland
    Italian Somaliland
    French Somaliland (now Djibouti)
    The Ogaden (occupied by Ethiopia)
    Northern Frontier Province (awarded to Kenya by the British)

    The Horn of Africa for me is the most interesting part of Africa. A lot of diversity, and great history. Hopefully, the wars and stuff end soon.

    When I visited family in Sweden it was an area that was about 80% Somali. There was some Bosnian and Turkish families as well. They are pious people from what I've seen. I'm hopeful for the situation in Somalia, numerous countries are trying to influence it with un-Islamic ideologies, but a portion of the people in Somalia are persistent in resisting it.

    Islam is inimical to the Somali identity. If you are not Muslim you are not Somali...which isnt the case for neighboring ethnic groups like Oromos, Amharas and Tigrays, who have both Muslim and Christian members.

    For some reason I cant get the video to load.

    My impression of the situation is that it stems from the Communist Somali Military's crushing defeat at the hands of the Soviets in the Odgen war. The instability from that and the fall of the eastern bloc led to civil war which is only now beginning to calm.
