September 12, 2010 -( tf.sf) - We, the under-signed representative members of the Somali Diaspora condemn the terrorist actions of Alshabab. We specifically condemn the August 24, 2010 incident at the Muna Hotel in Mogadishu where Alshabab militants murdered over 30 people, including several members of parliament and injured over 100 civilians in a suicide attack.
We condemn this barbaric attack, committed in the midst of the Holy month of Ramadan as
being not only against the basic tenets of Islam but also against the most fundamental and normative values of humanity, all of which call for the sanctity of human life. This barbaric act also contravenes Article 3 of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights which in no uncertain terms states “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.”
This latest attack follows a pattern of terrorist attacks that clearly demonstrate that Alshabab is not pursuing a Somali agenda that includes reconciliation and peace but instead, is determined to place Somalia in the dangerous vortex of international terrorism. On December 3, 2009 Alshabab staged a similar attack in Hotel Shamo suicide bombing, which claimed the lives of many Somalis including three Ministers of the Transitional Federal Government, about a dozen graduating medical students and injured more than 60 civilians, making it the deadliest attack in Somalia since the Beledweyne Bombing on 18 June 2009. In the latter incident, Alshabab murdered the Minister of National Security, a Somali diplomat, a dozen traditional elders and scores of civilians.
We impress upon the Alshabab leadership that these actions are inhuman, barbaric, and illegal under Islamic Law as well as International Law and constitutes crimes against humanity.
We urge the international community and the Somali people to take a strong stand against
Alshabab, as it has proven to be a major threat to peace in Somalia and poses greater threat to peace in the region and the world.
We also condemn Hizbul Islam for its role in destabilizing Somalia and remind its leadership
that their actions and alliance with Alshabab make them complicit in the criminal acts against
innocent civilians.
We are appalled by the growing humanitarian crisis unfolding in Somalia as a result of the ongoing conflict, which has resulted in mass killings and human displacement.
We urge the international community to treat the Somali humanitarian crisis as an
emergency, worthy of the response it has shown in other emergency humanitarian crisis.
While AMISOM’s presence is authorized by a United Nation’s mandate to protect Somali
government institutions, it is also obliged under international laws not to harm civilians.
We deplore AMISOM’s defensive but otherwise indiscriminate shelling of civilians, which
constitutes a disproportional response to the actions of its opponent.
Lastly, we urge the leadership of the TFG to vigorously examine the wisdom of its forces and AMISOM fighting a conventional warfare in a major city and also remind them of their
obligations under international law not to harm civilians.

Al-Qaida in Somalia. ...
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.
