Salaam New Muslim, I mentioned uranium specifically in my post because I heard the same thing you did; that Somalia has small but verifiable quantities of uranium. I have heard this on several occasions - namely when the US wanted to justify a war with Iraq and now with Iran. The US has...

That's an interesting theory, but something tells me if there were Oil and resources in Somalia of any notable quantity, they would have been exploited by now, since the environment was pretty condusive to that in the 80's under Barre. With all the bloodshed that has been going on in Sudan...

Salaam Sister Suumaya, You are correct, we should all continue to make dua. But you forget, in this case, as well as in many other cases the people being killed "because they are Muslims" are being killed by OTHER Muslims. I'm tired of people always blaming "the west" or "Christians" etc...

Need to Edit... Salaam Alaikum Sister Harb, I really enjoyed this. The Israeli occupation sickens me and I feel so helpless sometimes that the world just watches. But your title should be "Belsen" NOT Beslan. Beslan was the school in Russia where the Chechen rebels killed all those poor...

Apologies assalamu alaikum, I meant not disrespect to the brother by telling him to seek the answers to this particular question on anothre site. I simply meant that WE as Muslims obviously don't have the answers to this particular question. We are just guessing and speculating from what...

What's this for? Salaam Brother, I too am confused on why you would ask this question on a Muslim website. I think you should simply focus on Muslim issues here, as Catholics have little to do with us. I can tell you just from the news I've read though that Ratzinger was forced into...
