Uganda trains Somali police force
SENIOR police officers from war-ravaged Somalia are undergoing a one-month course in Uganda.Internal affairs minister Dr. Ruhakana Rugunda on Monday officially opened the training for the 83 station commanders of the Somalia Police Force at Jokas Hotel in Bweyogerere, near Kampala.The course, conducted by the Uganda Police, is aimed at imparting into the officers skills of managing police stations. It is funded by UNDP-Somalia.According to Felix Ndyomugyenyi, the acting commissioner for human resource development, the course covers community policing, crime management and investigation, conflict, case file and records management, ethics and integrity, command and control and gender mainstreaming.The officers, he added, would be attached to Police stations to practice what they learnt in class.Ndyomugyenyi urged them to gather as much information as possible to take back home.Rugunda said the training was to consolidate ties between the two countries and enhance mutual knowledge-sharing.In 2007, Uganda sent a peacekeeping mission to Somalia under the auspices of the African Union and the United Nations. There are 1,600 Ugandan soldiers serving there."If one part of Africa is in problems, we have a collective responsibility to ensure that it is supported to become peaceful," Rugunda noted.The minister recalled that in the 1960s and early 1970s, the Horn of Africa was progressive but became a failed state in 1991 after dictatorial President Siad Barre’s death.He was, however, happy that it had begun to recover. "We are confident that the people of Somalia will unite their country and make economic progress the way Uganda has done. The Police are critical in this process."The Police chief, Maj. Gen. Kale Kayihura, said the training was an opportunity for the Uganda Police to learn from their counterparts how to check suicide bombers and urban terrorism

We Are Winning the War on Terrorism in Horn of Africa
The threat is from violent extremists who are a small minority of the world's 1.3 billion Muslims, the threat is real. They distort Islam. They kill man, woman and child; Christian and Hindu, Jew and Muslim. They seek to create a repressive caliphate. To defeat this enemy, we must understand who we are fighting against, and what we are fighting for.

this is a great website. I am a Somali female, educated in the US and I cannot imagine those so called "Islamic Courts/Al-Shabab" getting the power of my country. I do not want to see these Terrorists, because they are former Mooryaanis turned into "Islamisist". Those who know about the truth of Islam are aware of that Islam does not allow massacring innocents and inflicting terror to humans. Also Islam is a peaceful religion, and as the name states, it means PEACE.
so lets stop these terrorists (Alshabab, Islamic Courts, ASMARA GROUP) because all of them are thugs who are misusing the name is of Islam. Besides, They claim that they are liberating Ethiopian troops from Somalia, while they are massacring innocent people everyday in Mogadishu with Urban Warefare. Ethiopia came to Somalia to help rid terrorists of in Somalia and help the TFG, so they can feel secure in their country too.
So lets tell those thugs who used to massacre innocent Mogadishu residents for 17 years before TFG, it is over for you guys. TFG has promised that Somalia will be back to the International Arena and we will never, again, let terrorists like "ALshabab, ICU, Or Asmara group" get power in Somali.
