- I meant secular progressives vs. fundamentalists. It's too late at night to be trying to sort this out. Must... sleep... now!2:04 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- Funny how certain news sources try to frame it as Government vs. Islamic Rebels. That's such a cartoon version of it.2:01 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- So while it's UN vs anti-UN, it's also seculars vs. progressives.2:01 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- To be more clear, Sharia would govern all aspects of law according to the rule of the Islamic Courts Union.1:59 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- The Somali interim govt's legal structure is divided into civil law, religious law, and clan laws. Sharia would try to govern all aspects.1:59 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- Okay, the "Islamic rebels" in Somalia are militias that are loyal to the Islamic Courts Union, and want Sharia, or religious government.1:56 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- I guess if the rebels want to make it about religion, those who report on it will abide. Sad, when the dispute is over govt alliances1:29 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- The rebels use Islam as their motive, but calling them "Islamic rebels" seems to imply that the interim government is fighting Islam. False.1:27 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- The Somali interim govt is led by a moderate Islamist and is backed by the UN. These "Islamist rebels" are really anti-UN.1:25 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- I guess I wouldn't have any questions if they weren't always "Islamic rebels." Maybe "Islamic Fundamentalist Rebels" would make more sense.1:20 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- So if the US sides with the pro-government side, and is against these Islamic Rebels, then where did my Islamic Somali neighbors come from?1:19 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
- I don't think I fully grasp the makeup of Somalia. It's always portrayed as pro-government vs. Islamic rebels. Aren't both sides Islamic?1:17 AM Jul 14th from BeTwittered
