Group claims attack on Ethiopian base in Somalia
2007-04-22
(SomaliNet) According to an internet website a little known group on Friday claimed responsibility for a suicide bombing on an Ethiopian military base in Somalia, and said it used chemicals in the attack. The group, calling itself the Young Mujahideen Movement in Somalia, said one of its newly dead most prominent members, Abdul-Aziz Dawood Abdul-Qader, carried out Thursday's bombing.

"By God's grace, a qualitative martyrdom operation was carried out at the western entrance to the capital Mogadishu in which chemical materials were used," the Arabic-language statement said. It was not possible to verify the authenticity of the statement, which was posted on a website used by terrorists militants.
Don't expect the progressive Left to become upset over Islamicist terrorist groups using chemical weapons.
Experts say the Young Mujahideen Movement has claimed responsibility for several attacks on Ethiopian troops since they routed the forces of the Somalia Council of Islamic Courts in an offensive over the New Year.
