#1 stopped during six months of strict Islamist rule.

Shhhssshshshshs... it's very young and needs to gain strength before it goes to the AP. A diet of pure pap is called for so it'll grow up to be a big, strong meme.

#2 It's a quagmire!

As long as governments tolerate mob rule and televised martyrdom-bribery these histrionics will continue to be used and they will continue to be effective. I have often thought the same thing watching masked gunmen at IRA/Fatah/etc. funerals: There are the enemy gathered en masse; deal with it (but take take to smash the cameras... no images = no news).

#3 The strategy of Jihad: if they're too strong to kill---protest.

#4 Sounds like Jamil Hussein is hiding in Mog.

“The Ethiopians opened fire and shot dead a young boy and a lady, they also killed another person,” the witness said.

#5 Mog would be a nice place to seal off from food, water, power, medical care and egress. Let that stinking shit hole rot and let em eat each other.

#6 Haniwye clan dont like the TNG, cause its run by a rival clan. Haniwye backed the Islamic Courts, which is how the IC won (eritrean intell not being quite the ISI) With Ethiopian troops on the ground, Haniwiya let IC take care of itself, letting lots of Islamist die, and leaving the foreigners trapped. But Haniwye is still there, and unless TNG deals with them seriously, they can make trouble. And they can use remnant IC types as well.
