Op-ed: The Kenyan Massacre’s Roots in America’s Somalia Policy
Last weekend’s hostage-taking — and the murder of at least 61 people — at the Westgate Shopping Mall in Nairobi, Kenya, has its roots in the U.S. government’s intervention in Somalia, which began in the 1990s. Although there is no justification for killing innocents, it is fair to point out that al-Shabaab, the Islamist group that committed the attack on the mall and that controls parts of Somalia, would probably not be in power if not for the United States.Read it here.

If Americans knew what was happening in their name, they would hang their heads in shame. Or would they?
