“Indeed, Allah has bought from the believers their lives and their wealth, because the garden will be theirs, they will fight in the way of Allah and will kill and be killed.” (Qur’an 9:111)
Clearly Al Shabaab is a match, or more than a match, for the Somali military.
“Al Shabaab launches deadly attack on military base in Somalia,” Reuters, March 23, 2024:
MOGADISHU, March 23 (Reuters) – At least 17 people were killed in Somalia on Saturday after Islamist group al Shabaab attacked a military base.
The Busley base, in the Lower Shabelle region in the country’s southwest, was briefly occupied by the attackers, security officials and the group said.
Armed fighters from al Shabaab battled their way to the facility using suicide car bombs, a Somalia military officer told Reuters….
“Several suicide car bombs attacked the base after fierce fighting…al Shabaab briefly captured the base,” the officer said.
“Then, government reinforcement fiercely battled and drove out al Shabaab.”…
Al Shabaab issued a statement claiming responsibility for the attack. It said it had killed 57 government soldiers. The group frequently gives casualty figures that are higher than those of the government….
The al Qaeda-allied group has been fighting for nearly two decades, aiming to topple Somalia’s central government and establish its own rule based on its strict interpretation of Islamic sharia law.

Those somalians better wise up. Blacks are hated by the muslims as they follow mohamed’s hatred of black people who he called “raisinheads” Mohamed had darker skin and if any one remarked that he was black,he would kill them immediately. Muslims were the biggest slave traders of african black natives from africa. I guss black people must be suffering from Stockholm syndrome as they ended liking the mulsims. I could never understand this. It’s like the jews suddenly adored the nazis.

mozlums and other terrorists are taking advantage of lax security, as the security people go after the innocent, labeled as the ‘highest risk.’
i. elmi, alias i. omar is probably grinning ear to ear. After all, she is a somewhat observer of the so-called “law”…which is really a code of evil conduct enforced by those who lust to rule over and murder others.

Send AOC!!! She is well respected by her own Somalia people ( at least in Minneapolis) and will be the best person to negotiate some type of resolution. I am sure she wouldn’t be that missed in Congress so please allow her an unlimited amount of time to complete this very important mission. If something goes wrong and she doesn’t return within six months, I am sure the Democrats will find a way to blame it on Trump.

I think you mean the somalia mozlum, i. elmi, alias i omar.
She has said she wants to go back there and raise her family.

By the time the Crusades started, in 1095AD, 2/3 of the Christian world had been conquered by muslims. We are SO tolerant they’re doing it again and we’re letting them!
Sherry C Miller says
Don’t worry. Ilhan Omar (Elmi) has told the Somalis in America that the US government will, “Do what we tell them.” Maybe Biden will start sending money to Somalia, then troops, then they will give the government to Al Shabaab. It will be Iraq all over again!
