Sometimes African tribalism can work in our favor
I recently wrote about tribalism as a dominant force in Africa and elsewhere, both in terms of anti-terrorist security and the fight against Ebola. It's usually a negative factor, from the point of view of the First World. However, sometimes it works in our favor, too - as in Somalia, where the fight against Al Qaeda offshoot Al Shabaab continues, with considerable success.

Therein lies the core problem with Somalia; clan loyalty is seen by most Somalis, as more importa... more »
