UNITED NATIONS - The U.N. Security Council voted unanimously Wednesday to authorize a regional force to protect Somalia's government which is under increasing pressure from Islamic militants.

The U.S.-sponsored resolution also lifted an arms embargo against Somalia to allow the regional force to be equipped.

The resolution urged the Islamic militants, who have taken control of the capital and most of southern Somalia since June, to stop any further military expansion and join the transitional government in talks to achieve a peaceful political settlement in the country which has not had an effective government since 1991.

It threatened Security Council action against those who block peace efforts or attempt to overthrow the government. No measures were mentioned, but they could include targeted sanctions.

Looks like everyone will be attacked.

I say let them fight it out


--------------------
A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
