On Friday, fighters took over the key southern port of Kismayo, after a week of fierce fighting with local clans, who had control of the city.

  • Please don't say "muslims" that's a faith...what about americans? the russians? the serbians? it's not about religion that people use weapons. Although I agree that this is not the way to solve the somalian crisis.

    ps, i'm not somali, i'm european.
