Somalia is, after Afghanistan, hell on Earth. The Northern part of the country is independent and the rest is divided between the internationally recognized Transitional government and Al-Shabab, which is an AL-Qaeda affiliate. Al-Shabab, a Wahhabist Taliban type group, has a Totalitarian grip on the parts of Somalia it controls. Women are oppressed, music isn’t allowed and any fun is discouraged. They have transformed a crappy nation into an even worse state of affairs.
MOGADISHU, Somalia — Men are forced to grow beards. Women can’t leave home without a male relative. Music, movies and watching sports on TV are banned. Limbs are chopped off as punishment, and executions by stoning have become a public spectacle.
Somalia is looking more and more like Afghanistan under the Taliban — two rugged countries 2,000 miles apart, each lacking a central government, each with a hard-line Islamist militia that cows the public into submission.
Al-Shabab in Somalia and the Taliban in Afghanistan — their tactics increasingly mirror each other. Those tactics worked for the Taliban until the U.S. invasion overthrew it in 2001, and now they are making a comeback. Meanwhile, al-Shabab has gained control over large swaths of this arid Horn of Africa country.
