Let’s quickly catalog what’s been going on in the world in the month of July. North Korean missle launches. Terrorists attacks in India. All-out war in Lebanon. It makes you wonder what could happen next. Well, wonder no longer:
MOGADISHU, Somalia — An Islamic militia leader called for a holy war Friday against Ethiopian troops protecting Somalia’s weak U.N.-backed government.
Sheik Hassan Dahir Aweys, speaking on Radio Shabelle, said Ethiopia’s decision to send troops to protect the transitional government in Baidoa, 150 miles northwest of Mogadishu, must be met with war.
“I am calling on the Somali people to wage a holy war against Ethiopians in Baidoa,” said Aweys, who the U.S. government says has ties to al-Qaida. “They came to protect a government which they set up to advance their interests.”
Makes you wonder if that whole World War III argument might not just be correct.
