US consulting with Somalis
Sources claimed that five US officers had visited another Somaili rebel group and discussed a number of potential targets. Warlords from the Rahanwein Resistance Army (RRA)  a faction opposed to the country's fledgling government  identified a training camp for militants close to the border with Kenya, run by the Somali group, al-Itihad al-Islamiya. The US officers were, according to the sources, accompanied by four Ethiopian officers. Hmmm. This is one of a continuing series of reports on Somalia... And the Rangers certainly want to go back for a nice visit.
