The name of Somalia's Islamist insurgent group al-Shabab - it means "The Lads" - may conjure images of a lovable band of rogues.
But the radical militia is a fiercely secretive and ruthless organisation with alleged links to al-Qaeda. The leaders of the group - which has taken over swathes of central and southern Somalia - are unknown to their subordinates. The middle lieutenants get their orders through text messages, or phone calls from recognised voices, giving them proof the instructions are coming from the right person. The leaders of al-Shabab are called "emirs" and they do not usually come from the region they administer. The emirs are said to use text messaging systems daily. The mid-ranking emirs and foot soldiers are given prepaid phone cards to carry out their day-to-day operations. Text messages are also used to threaten those al-Shabab believes oppose them. Anyone who ignores these warnings is likely to receive a visit from the gunmen.

LOL. CNN used to have an affiliation with Al Jizz but it eventually got to be too embarrassing, even before they started praising that fat murderer Samir Kuntar like he was John Wayne for bashing in the skull of a 4-year-old girl. That's al-BBC for you. Glorifying totalitarianism and genocide. They spent a million pounds trying to settle a case over their blatant anti-Semitism.
By the way, I know that nobody ever posts in here, but you have a great blog. You do a fantastic job, whoever you are.
If you ever have any stories about Christian persecution I'll link to you from the Center for the Study of Political Islam in the Bulletin of Christian Persecution.
I realize that the situation is beyond just exploiting one group or 'Somaliland' being under siege, though. I worry about Ethiopia too because you know they're next.
Anyway, keep up the good work. I ust linked to one of you articles in the forum on JihadWatch.
