strategic Value of Somalia?

Maybe it has to do with potential sea ports or, maybe there is hidden mineral wealth but whatever the reason or reasons, the USA doesn’t go about starting wars for nothing. That Somalia serves a strategic purpose to the USA (or the henchmen now running the show) is something you can bet your ass on.
Of notable interest today is the New York Times
http://www.nytimes.com/
article, not so hidden on the first page, that specifies guns for hire are the holding up progress towards whatever puppet government is now acting on behalf of George…..well, at least the people that do George’s thinking. Far be it from anyone to suggest that maybe, just maybe the warlords are combining efforts to get rid of the US puppets and get back to Islamic Cleric control that was emerging and slowly, at long last, restoring peace…up until the US planned/sponsored invasion.
Of what strategic value is Somalia to George’s thinkers? Who the hell knows but wouldn’t it be fun if some real journalists with some real contacts actually BBQ’d some yankee ass and laid it all out for the world to see…..before it goes much further?
Well, at least we got one report that throws out the G’boys theory for launching another war. (That’d be your “Al Qaeda all over the country”, excuse).
