Food aid comes but ends up in the pockets of the armed militia. Somalis need a force which can protect them from their own government, otherwise they will all perish. In an interview with the Somali Prime Minister, Nur Adde, he spoke with utter indifference to the plight of the Somali people. He has issued nothing less than a license of robbery to his militia when he said "Looting is not something we can stop as we are not in a position to pay our militia".

TFG means means Transitional Federal Government


Poem Artwork

Dear Mom I can feel your pain
Your heart is skipping a beat
As hunger steers in my stomach

I´m clinging to your sapping breasts
With no hope to get a drop of life
As death looms over in the horizon

Out there in the open I see light
Why can´t it come and shine for us
Why can´t the food aid reach us Mom

Out there in the palace I see a TFG
Why can´t it come to our rescue Mom
Or is it a hostage of its own militia

Your native land's plight is not a new one in the annals of man. Rather a continuing saga that moves across the fertile plains of mankind and history in a never ending cycle. Reaping the good peolpe of the earth in a blind swipe of the scythes swung by the arms of indifferent tyrants. Hunger is pervassive throughout the world today. Even in the the land of plenty, the U.S.A., hunger is a daily reality for untold millions! Only the citizens of every nation are capable of eventually righting this wrong. Governments and armies are incapable of ultimate resolution as most are rife with the tyrants. Jon Michael Willey

Hunger, those that never felt it, will continue to be insensitive to the plight of those that have.
Sorry about the tragedy of your land.
