Compare and Contrast
From MSNBC:
Somali troops enter capital unopposed
Somalis cheer as military rolls in, ending six months of Islamist domination
From the Guardian:
Return of warlords as Somali capital is captured
· Islamists retreat in face of Ethiopian tanks
· Looting begins as control of city is reclaimed
Same story, different spin.
MSNBC has never been considered much of a conservative news agency, but they look positively right wing when compared to the Guardian.
I'm glad that the Islamic crazies had been routed from the capital, but this is a region of the world where "stability" isn't even found in the dictionary. Here's hoping the UN doesn't decide to get involved.
At least then the people there might have a fighting chance at freedom.
