Ethiopian troops are in Somalia

Earlier today, Ethiopian troops entered Baidoa to secure the compound of the Transitional National Government. Eyewitnesses claim that more than 400 entered and set up camp. The SICC has threatened to attack them if they do not withdraw.

"We will declare jihad if the Ethiopian government refuses to withdraw their troops from Somalia," a top Islamic official, Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed, told The Associated Press.



The SICC might attack, but it's in the extremes of unrealistic thinking if they believe they have a chance against Ethiopia. So why the threatening moves? I don't know, unless they think that having God on their side means they have nothing to fear.
