Another Reason to "Torch" the Horn

Iran is looking for Uranium in Somalia.

Big deal, you might say. They have plenty in Iran or could buy it from friendly nations like Russia. Why worry about a little more?

Notes the article:

The uranium prospecting that Iranians are undertaking in Somalia creates problems for U.S. efforts to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. It would provide them with a virtually untraceable source of uranium ore that could be made into weapons.


Because we all know, when you want to generate electricity it is vitally important that nobody know where your Uranium came from.

The Islamists in Somalia are dangerous and are beating the local opposition. It is time for a Torch II operation in the Horn.
