Woyanne and Somali puppet government troops loot Mogadishu's main market - Ethiopian Review News

Woyanne and Somali puppet government troops loot Mogadishu's main market - Ethiopian Review News: "MOGADISHU (Reuters) - Insurgents threw grenades at Somali government soldiers in Mogadishu’s Bakara market on Sunday, and the troops responded by firing their weapons indiscriminately, witnesses said.
It was the second straight day of attacks in Bakara, famed as the site of one of the world’s biggest open-air arms markets, which has thrived in the anarchy the Horn of Africa nation has suffered since 1991.
“Five grenade explosions have occurred in Bakara market. Some of them we directed at government forces but they injured no one. I don’t know if there are any civilian casualties,” senior police officer Ali Nur told Reuters."

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House This is a sequel to my June 2011 article, ‘After the spring’, on the upheavals in the Arab world.

These include a complex entanglement with the accelerated preparations for a possible attack on Iran, and a poisonous, sectarian aspect that could have the consequence of ripping Syria and the Middle East apart.
