It was the second public protest in as many days against the Somali transitional parliament's vote Wednesday in favour of a plan for the deployment of Ugandan and Sudanese peacekeepers to help the government try to establish its authority.

Yeah, let's get some Janjaweed peace keeping up in that bitch!
It's no Disneyland but Somaliland is a small drop of hope for the region, and they've adopted some basic Islamic courtesies without going full out Shari'a. Somaliland is in the Northern part next to Dijouti where the Spain, German, and the US keep troops, and they were originally under British rule, as opposed to Italian like the rest of Somalia.
After 20 years of war, they're worn down and willing to accept any offering of peace even under restrictive Shari'a... and this is starting to become a trend...Islamists*, Jihadists*, Chose your term of favor here* make things as chaotic as possible until people can't take it any more and agree to anything under the Islamists terms just to end the hostility. Meanwhile, it's not like the warlords are an easier sell.
This means we can predict some Somalian conflict with Kenya, Ethiopea/Eritrea (where Muslims of the Horn tried to eradicate the Christians in the 16th Century), and Nigeria (which has a lot of Catholics).
