Somalia has plunged itself in a clan-based war which wreaked devastating havoc upon its country and people.

In the 40’s her father was a freedom fighter
She had lost him in the war with the Italians
At early age though, she married to a soldier
He has been killed in Somali-Ethiopian war
She had become a single parent raising children
When the dispute with the Ethiopians was solved
Somalia went to a clan-based war with itself
Armed struggle against the regime had started
Her elder son was murdered in a factional war
In the horrible fire fight with the US Rangers
She had buried two more of her male children
She is old now and desperately ill and helpless
Thinking of what War had done to her family
In Mogadishu she lives with her young daughter
Who herself is raising a child born out of rape
