Aug 1996
"Hussein Mohamed Aidid's appointment made it clear the General's death would not lead to a reconciliation among warring factions." (Associated Press, 4/8/96) Beta SP report on current conflicts in Somalia including interviews with the late General Aidid's long term rivals - Osman Hassan Ali Atto and Ali Madhi Mohamed. Zealous, young fighters loyal to Aidid hurtle across sand dunes in their four wheel 'technicals'. Skirmishes with rival clans litter Mogadishu with burnt out cars, sandbag shelters and razor wire. Hussein inherits an army which remains passionately committed to the cause. A young boy says proudly, "It doesn't matter if I die because when I'm dying I am defending myself and my leader." Both Atto and Ali Madhi agree that the late General Aidid controlled Somalia "through the barrel of the gun". Aidid's foreign minister dismisses such enmity as a "family affair". Violent resistance to peace consistently dogs Somalia. Hussein Aidid - once a member of the failed UN Peace Force - now seems as determined as his father to sustain the blood shed and the anarchy.

Bigz, obviously you are a typical white guy from the West who claims to be an "anarchist" and hates all forms of gov't. Why don't you go to Mogadishu and experience Anarchy first hand? People can not live without gov't, as has been demonstrated by the misery the Somali people have faced for 18 years.
