The Islamists; Osama bin Laden, Ayman Al-Zawahiri, iwm have listened and instructed the global Islamic insurgency to help Somalis. Clearly, you can't expect secular governments to help Islamists; even Rayaale's government wouldn't help Islamists, instead he would collaborate with foreign countries (Ethiopia, the US, iwm) to kill them (which is what actually happened). So, this is about seculars helping each other, and Islamists helping each other.
