War and messages on the wall

Street art in Mogadishu with a reportage of Rich Jones. He says on his article Somalis Trapped by War and Disaster for Doctors Without Borders:

The conflict in 2006 was characterized by intense bursts of violence in the capital, Mogadishu, and outlying regions. In July, a coalition under the umbrella of the Islamic Courts wrested control of Mogadishu from the militias that had preyed on the local population for years, and quickly gained influence in the country’s central and southern areas. Then in late December, the Western- and Ethiopian-backed Transitional National Government drove the Islamic Courts from areas they controlled. Against this backdrop of political insecurity, Somalia was hit by torrential rains in November that flooded the Shebelle and Juba rivers, leaving tens of thousands of families homeless and destroying their subsistence crops.

And now USA bombs came back in this country.
