America is the reason Ethiopia invaded Somalia in 2006. It was in both their mutual interest to overthrow the ICU government rapidly forming in Somalia but Ethiopia couldn't do shit about it without the United States.Yeah that would be Ethiopia, but America tried to HELP us.
Don't forget what these Gaal did in Somalia then reply with some Bullshit like "hurr durr ziad barre n shiet it's our fault"
These are canadian soldiers in Somalia 1993.
The ICU was a rapidly forming government that controlled central and southern Somalia and was overthrown in it's infancy during the US. Backed Ethiopian invasion in 2006 and continued occupation until 2009.
Warlords were driven out of Xamar by the ICU government led by Shikh Hassan Dahur Aweys and other leaders of the ICU who then governed by Islamic law.
The ICU government made nationalist statements hinting at the longterm desire of a unified Somaliweyn as well as a desire for it to be unified under an Islamic state. This terrified neighbouring states that occupied Somali territory such as Kenya and importantly Ethiopia who felt threatened by the emergance of the ICU in 2006.
The United nations Arms embargo was also bypassed and weapons flowed into Somalia to arm the ICU government from 7 countries: Djibouti, Egypt, Eritrea, Iran, Libya, Saudi Arabia and Syria.
The American Support of Warlords in Somalia proves my point that the Somali civil war was funded and armed by foreign states like America who would "accidentally" lose military equipment right in the middle of a Warlords territory.
This obvious fact to people in Somalia of foriegn involvement only increased native support of the ICU government.
In just 4 months the ICU was in control of the 7 of the 10 regions in South-Central Somalia.
I will continue this later on but if you want to read more here's a pdf
