Residents of the southern Somali port city of Kismayo report that US drones attacked at least three targets. The number of deaths in the attacks were not reported but several explosions were noted.
The attacks were believed to have targeted al-Shabaab targets within the city, as they are the only militant faction operating there. The port is seen as particularly strategically valuable for the insurgents, and a key source of funding.
The attacks come in the wake of a claim that a surveillance drone crashed in Kismayo and was carted off by al-Shabaab. The crash did not cause any casualties.
It was the first major reports of strikes in Kismayo since earlier this month, when an attack on the outskirts of town killed nine civilians, including women and children, and wounded 30 others.
All the men of Somalia want is a regular job so they can feed a family. Surely, and the cost of work for over ten thousand men for over a year, equal is it the price of this now mangled collateral killing machine.
That's what every average man around the world wants: a job to feed his family. The 1% psychopaths at the top, however, have different wants and desires and peace is not one of them.
This is nauseating! Not only has the US been responsible in plunging Somalia into the famine it is in right now but now, not satisfied with the slow genocide of those poor people by hunger, they move in with the drones and blow them to pieces too. Sickening!
