America Reopens an Old Front in the War on Islam

At last the Puppet Masters reveal themselves. After having destroyed much of Afghanistan, Iraq, and Haiti, the US government has turned its eye to another front in its War on People of Color: Somalia. It has been funding and putting its political (and now military) weight behind an 'interim government' composed of the warlords who have wrecked Somalia for the past decade and a half. This was done in an attempt to undermine the resurgent forces of Islam which were steadily retaking the country for the Somali people. Not content to fight a proxy war using the Ethiopian military, undoing the substantial good that the Islamic Courts Union has done for the country in the process, they have now stepped in to complete the carnage. Thirty one innocent people were killed in this assault and for what? To attack a supposed al-Qa'eda base? Will there ever be any independent examination of the evidence indicating that al-Qa'eda has a base at this location? Or will the US military maintain its ability to kill with impunity?

How is this NOT a violation of international law?

Members of the US backed 'interim' government supported the strikes. Rather convenient, wouldn't you say?
