It doesn’t get much worse than war, famine and murder. There is no oil in Somalia. If there _was_ oil there, the US would still be there, and so would every other first world nation… offering their assistance in the guise of saving human lives… and to keep the oil flowing. 😉 ☹

It’s a crime that oil is often the real motivation behind nations extending themselves to help those who need it most. 😠 Human life is cheap/expendable. Oil, on the other hand, is worth saving and profiting from. No oil and you’re on your own. ☹
