I have found this entire text elsewhere on the net. If you claim to be the creator, fine. If not, you have violated copyright and need to delete your post. Otherwise please cite your source!

And no, I am just myself.

Re: Somalia-a collapsed state

In fact, the US is currently engaged in air strikes in Somalia... It would seem we have *intelligence* that there are al-Qaeda leaders there:

BBC NEWS | Africa | US 'targets al-Qaeda' in Somalia

US air strikes in Somalia are aimed at al-Qaeda leaders in the region, and based on "credible intelligence", a Pentagon spokesman has said.

Re: Somalia-a collapsed state

So what is it about Somalia that they find haven there? Why Somalia?

Are they a producing region?
Do they have healthcare?
What types of infrastructure to they live with?

Fxzeu created this thread under the title, "A collapsed state." Let's explore why. Maybe then we can better understand why the target of US attacks found themselves residing in that region in the first place.
