African Taliban Beatdown?
Somalia's government (if you can call it that) is claiming victory over the Islamic Courts Union forces in a battle outside of the "capital" Baidoa.

According to the report, Ethiopian troops took part in the fighting.
I wonder if the Hollywood left will rally around the Ethiopians as they fight and die to prevent Somalia from becoming another Taliban-like state the way they did when Ethiopians were dying of starvation in the '80s.

The Left doesn't know who to root for when it's brownie vs brownie. Outside of race and rich vs poor they have no real meter by which to make that moral calculation. Does. Not. Compute.

Well even if the " Hollywood left" did rally round the Ethiopians they may not be able to assist them as much as say THE PRESIDENT of the United States.
If you or the Ethiopians are hoping for help I'd look towards D.C. first. If that doesn't pan out I guess you can go down the list S.F. Hollywood, Boston but I'd think D.C. would be the first place to go.
Foreign policy is vested in the Executive Branch by the Constitution of the United States.
