    Nice propaganda ploy in the picture above, but with a 98% rate of prevalence (at least 80% as infibulations) in Somalia, how well does one engage in combat with the mobility-compromising complications of female genital mutilation? "After Kampala attack, Somali militants promise more operations," from CNN, July 15:

    Noteworthy: The propagation of a message of destruction and subjugation on an invention the jihadists could never develop themselves because they're too busy destroying the physical and intellectual building blocks for innovation and the generation of wealth. They should thank their lucky stars (and crescent) for the kuffar.

    I'm not exactly sure what your motives are with this thread, or what you are even trying to state with this particular paragraph. It seems to largely consist of incoherent rumblings with the phrase "female genital mutilation" thrown in there for some sort of shock factor.

    Once again with this paragraph there doesn't seem to be much in the way of a coherent argument simply concerning the issue of Somalia. You seem to simply be throwing out generalized stock words and phrases like "jihadist", "crescent", and "kaffir".

    In fact, you seem to be more concerned with Islam than with any real specifics dealing with this issue.

    As a side note, the crescent moon really isn't a symbol that is generally used in Somalia. It was a Turkish symbol that became popular under the Ottomans and the Ottomans never really held Somalia as a territory so the reference to a crescent doesn't make much sense, nor does the reference to kaffirs since Somalia is basically 99% Muslim and doesn't contain significant non-Islamic populations.
