FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
“I was shocked when I heard the sound of bullets, I witnessed something
very awful,” added Abukar. “There were even women and children
watching.”
The movement’s insurgency is under pressure from African Union forces –
comprising Kenyan troops pushing north and a mixed force gaining ground from
Mogadishu – as well as Ethiopian troops coming in from the west.
Suspected US drone strikes have also targeted Islamist extremists,
particularly in the south of the country.
Sheikh Abdi Haq, an al-Shabaab judge, said he ordered the men be put to death
for facilitating drone attacks that targeted senior al-Qaeda officials in
Somalia.
“They helped the US carry out drone attacks that killed Bilaal Berjawi
and other brothers from around the world,” Haq told The Daily
Telegraph. “We will kill anybody who works with the CIA and MI6.”
Haq alleged that Yasin Osman Ahmed, 23, and Omar Hassan, 22, worked for the
CIA in Somalia, while Mukhtar Ibrahim Sheikh Ahmed, 33, worked for British
intelligence based out of Hargeisa, Somaliland.
But independent Somalia analyst Jay Bahadur questioned the motives for the
executions, pointing instead to divisions within al-Shabaab.
“These executions could be part of persistent divisions between Somali
nationalists within the movement and those advocating global jihad,” he
said.
Al-Shabaab formally joined al-Qaeda earlier this year, a move welcomed by the
terror network’s leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, with Somalia becoming an
increasingly important front in the global war on terror.
