    "content": "Millions of Somalis have lost their lives as a direct result of war or consequences. Somalia has become haven for negative forces from all over the world. It has now become a threat to international peace and security in the region as well as in the world. However, unfortunately, the world has not done what it should have done. The international community has not done its work. For example, the world went to the rescue of Sierra Leone, Liberia, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and Sudan. All these countries have either an African Peace keeping force or an international peace keeping force. I am asking myself: Are Somalis not members of the human race? Why are we letting the children of Somalia die needlessly? In the case of Kenya, we share not only a common border, but also common characteristics. Therefore, I think Somalia needs the security to be able to have the peace and deal with its problems politically; after all, the problem in Somalia is political. However, you cannot have a political settlement unless you secure the security. Therefore, it is in the interest of Kenya and her people for us to play a supportive role in resolving the Somalia crisis. We can play that role by being part of the internationally recognized and accepted process which is AMISOM. By being part of AMISOM we can protect our interests as a country and let the people of Somalia have the opportunity to resolve their problems and find the political solution that, that country needs in order to be once again part of the regional process, Africa and the World."
