Somalia is ‘most ignored tragedy’ – BBC NEWS

Mogadishu residents fleeing

The world should be shocked at the systematic destruction of Somalia’s capital Mogadishu and its residents, says lobby group Human Rights Watch.

The organisation told the BBC the city had become a zone of free-fire between government and insurgent forces.

It said if such a situation was happening anywhere else in the world, like Georgia or Lebanon for example, it would be considered a travesty.

This is a shame on all world powers who brag about seeking democracy and wage wars in the name of human rights. Unfortunatly Somalia does not have the geo-political value to make them move.

Luckily there are those pirates. Maybe they will shake the attention of the world a little bit about the situation there.
