Somali Rebels Allege Famine Claim an Infidel Hoax


Revelation 6:8, “… They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague …”

“For Somalia’s Al-Qaeda-linked rebels, the drought devastating parts of the country is being exploited by external enemies, claiming that local Muslims were adequately addressing the crisis.

The Al-Shebab insurgents have expelled several foreign aid groups from regions under their control since 2009 and reiterated recently that the ban was still in force after the United Nations declared famine in two regions they rule.

Shebab spokesman Sheikh Ali Mohamud Rage denied there was famine in the southern Somalia regions of Bakool and Lower Shabelle as declared by the UN, but admitted that there was drought.

In a speech to the rebel radio, Rage said local traders and other residents have been the main providers of help to the drought-hit population and that ‘God did not make them need an outside enemy or non-Muslims, the people in the country fed them very well.’

‘We need Muslim people to be aware that the external enemy especially non-Muslims have been thinking of a new strategy.
