Somalia's Fluid Politics Move Toward Polarization
Drafted By: Dr. Michael A. Weinstein
http://www.pinr.com

Somalia's fluid political situation underwent yet another shift during
the weeks of June 26 and July 3, as the conflict spilled over into
neighboring states and became regionalized, and Osama bin Laden weighed
in with his take on the struggle between the Islamic Courts Council
(I.C.C.), which controls most of the country's south, and the
internationally-backed but weak Transitional Federal Government (T.F.G.)
based in the town of Baidoa. Meanwhile, the I.C.C. consolidated its
gains on the ground, Washington's intentions remained unclear -- even
after a congressional hearing on its Somalia policy -- and regional and
international organizations proved unable to respond to the conflict
effectively.
