On Sunday, a roadside bomb killed two children and an elderly man and wounded five people.Apparently its just too obvious to identify those responsible. In addition, at least 4 other civilians are known to have died in Somalia over the past few days.

Maybe the U.S. or its allies ought to start planting roadside bombs just so we can finally hear some condemnation of their use.
