Who Shot Dead Osman Ali Ahmed the Top UN official killed in Somalia?

Osman Ali Ahmed was shot as he left a mosque in the capital, Mogadishu, and died in hospital of his injuries. Gunmen have killed the head of the UN Development Programme in Somalia, UN officials say. As the world body looks into Mogadishu seeking answers to the bloody murder of the Mr. Ahmed, Somali observers point the blame finger towards the residents of Somali Villa, a place that houses the Somali President and his militia that independently work to protect and carry out his orders, without the government body's knowledge or involvement. 
 
As reported by Somali news sources including Dalkanews.com, allegedly there are rumors that the killers had been seen driving in their vehicle towards Somali villa.  One man who followed the murderers' vehicle affirms that two other vehicles, that appeared to be the President's Militia, met with the killers at a prearranged rendezvous point where they continued to escort them into Somali Villa.
 
Despite the allegations, no one claimed responsibility for the killing.  However,  it is widely believed in Mogadishu that Abdullahi Yusuf is behind the killing of Osman Ali Ahmed. 
 
Similarly, just last month, the head of UHCR was kidnapped in Mogadishu outskirts where he was giving out food to the displaced.  Although it is not proven, many residents of the capital city discuss among themselves that he was taken to an under-ground jail in Somali Villa by Abdullahi Yusuf's orders.
 
Also late last month, the President's militia army outclassed itself by robbing the same organization they were suppose to secure its operation. Basically, they stopped the WFP trucks on their route to the outskirts of Mogadishu heading to refugee centres.

For about and hour, the Abdullahi Yusuf loyalists kept the unarmed UN trucks under siege as they forced UN Officials to pay up.  Eventually, the defenseless UN workers paid up not only to continue to their route, but because they were also threatened that they would be shot if they don't pay large amounts of fines.

Ethiopian army reserves escape from military bases

Confirmed reports from the border of Kenya and Ethiopia circulate Ethiopian army reserves flooding into Kenya after escaping from military bases as they fear they may be assigned to duty in Somalia. 
 
As reported by Dalkanews.com an Ethiopian sergeant speaking on condition of anonymity who recently escaped along with 38 of his troops said that, in the last two months, more than 4000 troops have fled the Ethiopian army bases located near the Somali border where army reserves were based in preparation for deployment to Somalia. 
 
In Wajeer, a border town in Kenya to Ethiopia, the sergeant gave out secrets of how the Ethiopian government handles its dead troops.  He said the dead are carried out of Somalia in a helicopter in bunches and are then sporadically thrown off the helicopter in the isolated remote border lands between Somalia and Ethiopia.  He also narrated frightful news that circulated inside the army bases of Ethiopian soldiers being killed in Somali towns by Alshabab and other Somali fighters.
 
In the past few months, the Ethiopian army invading Somalia have faced increased number of attacks from Somali fighters who are determined to expel the Tigres from their country by force.  It was last week that more than 150 Ethiopian soldiers were killed as they were chased out Guri-el and Matabaan cities in Galguduud region and just yesterday more troops were killed and weapons seized by Alshabab and UIC fighters, along with local Somali Militia, near Beledweyne in Hiran where the Ethiopians fled after heavy fighting.

Goerge W. Bush Jr wants to start african war!


What happened when Goerge Bush Sr. left office after his term?  He left behind US troops in Somalia, and a few months later, the Black Hawk Down incident happened where more than 10 thousand Somalis were killed in a battle with the American troops who later withdrew from the Somalia in a shameful manner.  What if I tell you that his son Goerge W Bush Jr. is about to repeat the same mistake with one difference.  He not only wants americans involved in the current Somali conflict, but he also wants many other african countries involved in bloody african war that is about to start in the Horn of Africa.
 
The situation in Somalia is currently unbearable for the somali civilians as the Ethiopian and the Ugandan armies take turns at shelling and burning the capital in the hope they will demolish the armed resistance.  Historically, there is bad blood between Ethiopians and Somalis and the two have a common hatred towards each other due to being arch enemies for centuries.  It is as though that Goerge W Bush read this history somewhere and decided that bringing the Ethiopians into Somalia was the perfect recipe to start a war between the two countries.  Except, it is not a war, it is a one sided devastation as the Tigrees reduced most of the country to useless fragments consisting of half walls and corpses, displacing over 3 million people from their homes and into refugee camps in their own country.  Despite the apparent lack of peace and security, the somalis live through this harsh reality.  However, they also fight back.
 
Fighting back is something the somali people are experts on.  They have done so when the English invaded and tried to slave them way back in the 19th century.  They fought till Somalia took its indepence in 1960.  They have done it again when they ousted the former dictator Siad Barre and later when Sr Bush wanted Aided arrested.  Certainly, they will not stop now when their arch enemy is in their home towns.  If fighting with Ethiopians seems hard to swallow reality, wait till the rest of Africa is brought into the battle field.
 
Goerge W. Bush Jr. is currently calling and contacting all african leaders such that of Brundi, Nigeria and Malawi, South Africa and Egybt.  This certainly is going to be the most successful recipe to start a war among African countries.

Ugandans shell Mogadishu with heavy Artillery Killing More than 10 civilians

Reports coming out of Somalia that the capital city is under fire once again by the African troops stationed there to keep the peace and the security of the city.  On July 1st, the Ugandan army shelled the city with heavy artillery killing more than 10 civilians as they targetted densely populated areas.  It is not clear what is causing the Ugandans to sporadically aim in every direction with their artillery but their actions are causing many civilians injured.
 
Reports in somali news web sites indicate that the Ugandan soldiers are attacking the civilians with artillary and rockets and are targetting civilian areas.  According to DalkaNews.com, there are more than ten civilians killed by the shelling and many are injured and are expected to die because there are no open hospitals functioning in the city.  The number of casualties from the Ugandan troops' shelling to civilians areas of Mogadishu is expected to reach in the hundreds with the next few days. 
 
It was just last month that the United Nations made their agenda clear;  it is bring a UN peace keeping force to Somalia and is expected to put together an African force to support the Ugandans and Ethiopians.  Now that the Ugandan's are starting to become infamous, bringing more Africans to Somalia would be a difficult task to accomplish by the UN.
 
The somali people see the Ugandan's support for Ethiopian invaders an act that is common to all foreign troops further strengthening the hatred between other African nations and Somali people.  Therefore, it appears that any force from Africa would be a target for tactical attacks by the armed resistance in the country.
