from Somali Net:
Powerful warlords got together last February and announced a new self-appointed ant-terror group called Alliance of Anti-Terror and Peace Restoration. They held a press conference the next day and told the world they are in business of hunting Al-Qaeda members who were suspected of hiding in Mogadishu. This new union surprised almost everyone who is keen to Somalia’s political landscape since these men were at each other’s throat for so long.
So where did this new alliance of warlords come from?
Many analysts agreed that either the Pentagon or the CIA recruited and financed Mogadishu warlords to fight a proxy war against Al-Qaeda or its sympathizers. Unlike US involvement in Somalia in early 1990s, Mogadishu warlords will do the dirty job of hunting US wanted men for a bounty price. The warlords and the US government agreed there are Al-Qaeda affiliates operating out of Mogadishu and unverified but widely believed reports say the US and Ethiopia are heavily involved in the war.
Looks like the Bush administration can't figure out what's going on anywhere, but if you scream "TERRORIST!" You can get a lot of money and guns from them.
And of course they still can't find bin Ladin.
