#7 Somalia might seem far away to you but we really should all care about this.

For one, Somali sufis are actually the funniest, kindest people.

it's the new Saudi financed sunni Islamofascists behind Shabaab that are the horror

Look at what they do to their opponents - our ideological allies - in their own country.

It is brutal. those people are the bravest people you could ever meet, the ones that stand up to the shabaab. The reporters on the ground there, somalis, who get stories out.

now look how huge the somali diaspora is. It stretches from kenya through Europe, Australia, the USA

The next people to fly planes into buildings will be Somalis

al-Qaeda and ideologically aligned groups will use the failed state as a training ground and launching pad.

it is also strategically located - if the shabaab take Puntland they can cause havoc with the world's shipping lanes.
