Congratulations.
My school did a big study on Genocide in Somalia D:
awesome! i want to see this, and i want ppl to see this, instead of boobs, sex, and humour
Once again, the translation isn’t done perfectly ;) Still, well done docu
nah…i prefer boobs, sex, and humour
SPY ZAPPIN MAH SENTRY
i agree with chinito
More proof of peace-loving Islam at work. If people do not accept Islams philosophy, kill them, terrorize them, and intimidate them.
Islam would not exist if it wasnt for Muslims applying the sword to gain converts.
This is very interesting and I appreciate the chance to see it, but I don’t see what it is doing on rocketboom. It seems completely outside it’s scope and I can only forgive that because it was interesting.
damn that white truck is sick
I can watch it whitout subtitles :D
Dangerous place to tell a story. Good Luck and thank you for sharing.
This beautiful, ancient country, destroyed. And for WHAT?
For the one millionth time, there are extremists in EVERY religion. EVERY ONE. Don’t generalize.
All you have to do is look at the news (the people of Lebanon rejected Hezbollah in the elections a few days ago) to see you’re just lumping everyone in one pot.
this is dutch
why
Its Amazing that even after 16 years since the US was last in there that this is still going on….
Somalia. A nation without any government at all.
This is the Republican dream.
Dont forget really godfearing and they have witchdoctors. Palin would feel right at home.
why are they being attacked? i hate war
They’re being attacked because people decided that they would take a religion (Islam, though it can happen with any religion) and modify/censor parts of it to benefit their (violent) needs
its a lot more complicated than that , a lot of these people dont have much choice, education or wealth, let alone food, majority is very very poor, u cant describe the conflict in the middle east in a paragraph or a book the size of a room, let alone 1 reason, violence… u try living over there and see how u change
or wherever the conflict happens to be, lot more factors than wanting to inflict violence, most pple have reasons for violence
It’s a sad world
More proof of “peace-loving” Islam at work. If people do not accept Islam’s philosophy, kill them, terrorize them, and intimidate them.

Part one was good for Fox News. Part two is more balanced, on CNN’s standards I dare say: adherence to facts but no background and context. Just like CNN.
its not war, its religious extremists. don’t EVER forget the ugly side of religion
thank you for ignoring all our comments on the past video
still not objective, and only telling one side of the story
you are in somalia, with the troops, may be risking your life. make it count, make it matter.
try actually to deliver the truth, so if you die there it won’t be in vain.
43 dead in 2 years??
and it’s a problem??
israel killed more than a 1000 in 5 days
no one said “so much for the peace loving jews”
I am not blindly defending any side in Somalia
I just want to see the complete facts (or even somthing almost complete) so i could make up my mind, whether or whether not should I start hating a billion.
I put it in simple form.
Stop trying to be an armchair operator.
Muslim extremists cause a lot of problems…
More of… Muslim extremests ARE a problem. Any religion which thinks violence is good is so obviously wrong… “hey, let’s go blow up some dudes so we can get 72 virgins” Sheesh…
To correct you, the obvious ugly side of several specific religions. And religion isn’t something you can choose to have. Neo Darwinism is a religion, Cosmic Humanism is a religion, etc.. I bet when you posted this you thought of the crusaders and Christians, given how illogical you are. However, the crusaders were not Christians, they were catholics. Catholosism is a cult.
Anyways… Oh, and if you want to argue with this, fine, but don’t go into flame war.
No, not Republican. Anarchist. Retard…
No, Thats an anarchists dream.
what are you talking about? did you just honestly say you cant chose your religion?i was raised a christian, gave up my beliefs and became an atheist. and again you protest that im illogical for saying that someone should not forget the ugly side of religion. or was it the extremist comment? never the less you are just trying to defend your “cult”. how dare you insult the largest religion in America. and yes Catholicism( spelled with an “ic” not “os”) is the largest religion in America.
Indeed and that’s the problem with most things when they are taken to extremes. Muslums as a people are better than most Americans, but it is the extremists that run the good picture. Same is true in nearly any other area.
Bloody Muslims.
“Catholicism is a cult” no true Scotsman, ey?
wtf? you gotta be kidding. neo darwinism? catholics aren’t christians? WTF!? and how does that comment has anything to do with the crusaders?? I sure hop you’re in a cousiony prison cell wearing a straightjacket… you. are. nuts.
great report. i was on a fishing boat one year. 4/5 ths of the crew was from Somalia. they received a green card to attend school here if they worked the whole season. it was hard at first, for everyone, but then we all were so tired we got along well. they told stories much diff than the ones we had been told at the time. the truth im sure is somewhere in the middle.
Somalia.
The ultimate unregulated free market.
No government interference whatsoever.
Everybody free to do whatever they want.
The right-wing fantasy come true.
You’re a moron. There are laws that enslave men and laws that set them free…
Re-read my comment.
Maybe if you’d listen, you’d understand. No, I did not say that you cannot choose which religion you belong to; that is a human’s right to do. However, you cannot not have a religion. Athiesm is a religion; one that believes in an absense of a God, but a religion nonetheless.
I really don’t care about popularity of a religion. It is a cult. Catholocism says that Jesus is not the only way to heaven, which is what the Bible says, so by definition it is a cult. Don’t say I’m defending.
why can’t people just go about their lives, not caring wether or not other people believe what they believe? It dosen’t make any sense
The ultimate right-wing fantasy is a government that protects individual rights as enshrined in law. In other words, a free market is not the absence of laws (i.e. chaos) , rather its the implementation of proper laws. You so it is absolutely not “everybody free to do whatever they want”. That is a gross misscharacterization of what a proper unregulated free market would look like.
I concur with you, Syntox. There are extremists in every religion. America has its own brand of “Taliban.”
Tell that to the new Republican Party.
We deregulated banking . . . and the banks themselves went bankrupt.
It was 1929 all over again, but without Herbert Hoover in the White House for the next four years, thank God.
As Somalia demonstrates, hating government is as absurd as hating the private sector or hating all churches and community organizers and the volunteer sector or hating the individual or the family.
All of these, the individual, the family, volunteers, community organizers, churches, the private sector, and the public sector all have a proper role to play and each has something to contribute.
The debate should be over who does what best.
That would save us all a lot of ideological namecalling that bores me literally to death.
In providing universal healthcare, if the “public option” turns out to be the higher quality, lower cost option, people should be allowed to choose it!
Why is the private sector quaking in their boots over a little competition?
The answer: Because they know there’s no way they can compete.
When the job is simple enough (mailing checks to doctors!), zero overhead beats for-profit every time.
lol you nutter. stop listening to your preacher and a 2000 year old book. your the exact thing i was talking about when i mentioned radical Christians
Nice hearing an American talking about the dream of universal health care to a Canadian…
That’s why my family had to drive to Buffalo for my grandmother right? Because, universal health care gives everyone access to a universal waiting list. The same is true in the UK and the Nordic countries. Sorry to burst your bubble…
We will bury you.
In elderly Americans looking for affordable prescription medications.
Given that you have no evidence, there is no reason why I should be called the wrong one.
vets like me have universal health care. it sucks. were best off how we currently are.
Yeah… except that 1929 wasn’t unregulated…
It’s funny because the government can never anticipate how their regulations are going to fuck up the market.. then when the market fails the left tries to blame capitalism and add further regulations that cause further problems. The banking industry is the MOST regulated industry in the US and no wonder it fell to pieces.
Logic and common sense should be enough evidence.
too bad for you there are no contemporary historical accounts of your supposed god-man

If vets had universal healthcare, they wouldn’t have to go to veteran’s hospitals anymore. They could go anywhere they wanted.
vets do have a kind of universal health care. it sucks. just like everything else the goverment tries to run. i love my country but hate my goverment, it cant do anything right.
I think people are just being superstitious.
All around the world the government writes a check and mails it to the doctor. It’s not that big a deal. Mailing a check isn’t rocket science.
Single-Payer just works. Talk to anyone from Australia.
dont forget the canadian lady that died because the health care system there wouldnt get her the needed treatment when she needed it…. im shure theres more than one story like that though.
talk to many other people including the vets and people covered under millitary care. its free but you get what you pay for ;). it sucks, were best off how we are
Don’t believe the hype pumped out by the health insurance industry.
Veterans are faced with a choice between low quality care from the Veterans Administration and high cost care from for-profit health insurance companies.
Veterans deserve another option: the public option.
The public option is you choosing your own private doctors and private hospitals with government paying the bill. That’s the plan that U.S. Senators and Congressmen have and they love it.
Veterans go to VA hospitals in the -current- system. That’s what we’re trying to reform.
Veterans risked life and limb. They deserve no less.
