#1 Cut it up, and give half to Ethiopia and half to Kenya. If the locals can't get organized, then they should lose everything.

#2 The last Democratic president's strategy appears in hindsight to have been to crush the one major clan obstructing development and then run like hell. Snatching defeat from the Jaws of Victory! Still the only war* plan of the Democratic Party. * Running without fighting is not war.

#5 Even the civilians in Somalia are aligned to one of the clans that are linked to the warlords. Nobody is innocent. Let them rot.

#6 Islam in it's truest form. Refined.
Who holds the caliphate is like chasing a fumbled ball that never stops. "Citizens" of these "Holy states" never know who is in charge until they are either beaten, raped, sold into slavery, or killed. Ahhh, nice to see some holy things coming out of the religion of "Peace".

I fatwah you, no... I fatwa you. Noooo, Jihad your fatwa, nooo, in the surah... but in the etc etc etc.

Why not see how bas Somalia gets instead of trying to fix it? Maybe that should be policy. Let the DEVIL take over as intended and watch the future in action.

There is NO definition in the Koran.
