BBC NEWS
Hundreds of Somalis have marched through the streets of Mogadishu, protesting against al-Shabab militants.
The protesters, mostly women and children and wearing traditional white clothes, chanted slogans denouncing the al-Qaeda-inspired group.
The BBC's Mohammed Olad Hassan says this is only the second public demonstration against al-Shabab, which controls much of southern Somalia.
The protesters shouted their support for the UN-backed government.
Mohyadin Hassan Afrah, who helped organise the protest in one of Mogadishu's few government-controlled districts, says people were upset at a move by al-Shabab to destroy the tombs of revered Sufi clerics.
Al-Shabab follows the strict Saudi Arabian-inspired Wahhabi interpretation of Islam, rather than the Sufi Islam of many Somalis.
"We call for a holy war against them," said Sheikh Somow, from the Sufi Ahlu Sunnah Wal Jama group, which recently stuck a deal with the government.
Mr Afrah also said he was marching to protest at al-Shabab's use of foreign fighters.
Our reporter says fighters from Pakistan, Yemen and North Africa have travelled to Somalia to join al-Shabab.
Dozens of government troops watched the march and fired shots into the sky.
"We have been forced out of our houses because of the violence instigated by al-Shabab. We are here to support the government and make our voices against them heard," said one of the protesters, Hawo Abdulle Aden.
About half of Mogadishu's population have fled their homes.
The country has been torn by conflict since 1991.

This is like the pinnacle of lameness.
A bunch of dudes sucking up to Somalicentric because they think she looks nice (in my defense, I didn't notice some of the pics weren't hers), and ganging up on 2+2 because she's hating on their crush.
Y'all are tripping. Plus, I bet 2+2 is sexier anyway.

Fooling around in bed half-naked is one of the mysteries of life that transcend nationality and religion.

****** London transport making "fare evasion" a criminal offence. I've never heard of that in any other part of the world.
That being said, I'm sure they'll be reasonable with you. You'll just have to pay a fine IA

A treasonous coup d'etat was attempted, which has led to a bloody continuation to the civil war which seemed to be over at that time.
