This are really endtimes.
No more money, No No No more troops are needed or ever well comed, this prolonged program for which is meant to destroy human live and their liberty, Africa don’t be or treat like hyenas, use logic, don’t play gambles on Somalia, or there will be a revolution against the two unlucky A’s; (Amisom and Alshabaab) are parasites on civilian bloods.
Do Somalis suffer more in areas where there’s Amisom or they suffer more when under Alshabaab? Is Amisom hostile to Somalis than Alshabaab or Alshabaab are more hostile to Somalis than Amisom?
they are same and each one of them is worse than the other.
