Putin imo is great kicking these guys in the balls in his own country and now Syria for example. But I don't see him getting involved in Somalia. BUT, his efforts to dismantle the global agenda of some western countries and his defiance against the Empire expansion, may help other African countries in a way, including mine, in the long run.

Somalia needs someone to come in from their own ranks - but with the mess there now and CIA in there operating, an opposition would just be welcome to them and branded a new "Terrorist Group". Look at Yemen, these guys are in a hopeless situation right now. If you are oppressed for years, and no opposition can form as a result, it's difficult for a country to pick itself up and take back sovereignty. So maybe it does need a outside intervention, but I don't see that happening. Only hope is to dismantle this Operation from its roots.
