Somali Islamists vow ‘new phase’ to resist invasion

Recommended Posts

Islamic fighters dug in and promised a “new phase” in the war – a chilling pronouncement from a movement that has threatened suicide attacks

 

 

Ahmed said his fighters are in tactical retreat in the face of superior Ethiopian firepower. But the military struggle has just begun, he added.

 

“The war is entering a new phase,” Ahmed said from Mogadishu, the capital. “We will fight Ethiopia for a long, long time and we expect the war to go everyplace.”

 

Ahmed declined to elaborate, but some Islamic leaders have threatened a guerrilla war to include suicide bombings in Addis Ababa.

 

Could gurerilla warfore work in Somalia against the xabashi even if it means using suicide bombing.This tactic has been very successful against the superpowers.
