This statement from the Al-Shabaab group coincides with a time when the American troops in the Somali waters carried air raid at Dusamareb town in Galgadud region in central Somalia and killed a top official from the group.
"Our brother martyr Aden Hashi, has received what he was looking for — death for the sake of Allah — at the hands of the United States," Robow told The Associated Press by phone. "This would not deter us from continuing our holy war against Allah's enemy (USA); we will be on the right way, that is why we are targeted," he added.
Over the past year, the U.S. military has attacked several suspected extremists in Somalia when the U.S. Navy fired at least one missile into a southern Somali town. Somali government officials have said Ayro trained in Afghanistan before the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks and is the head of al-Qaida's cell in Somalia.
He was a key figure in the al-Shabaab movement, which aims to impose Islamic law and launches daily attacks on the shaky Somali government and their Ethiopian allies. Ayro also recently called for attacks on African peacekeepers in Somalia in a recording on the Islamic Web site http://kataaib.net/shuhadada%2028-01-2008.html which is hosted in the USA by the Dotster web company in Vancouver WA.
Sheik Muhidin Mohamud Omar, who Robow described as "a top commander" in the Al-Shabab, was also killed. A web site, http://kataaib.net/shuhadada%2028-01-2008.html reportedly owned by the Al-Shabaab group of Somalia (hosted by the Dotster Co in Vancouver WA) had posted a 24 minute recording of what is said to be the voice of its hiding leader Aden Hashi Ayro, who has called for attacks on African Union troops and expressed his wishes of someday beheading women and children in Addis Ababa. Ayro, according to intelligence sources is an Afghan trained (by al-Qaeda) assassin who is also an expert in insurgency tactics.
In recent months, Al-Shabaab, the military wing of the Islamic Courts Union, has spread renewed fear through Mogadishu. Al-Shabab, now an autonomous rebel group which has added an explosive element to the combustible mix of Mogadishu’s militias, enforces strict sharia (Islamic law) and uses tactics imported from the global jihadi movement. As in Afghanistan, those who work or trade with the government risk being branded as spies or collaborators and beheaded as a warning to others.
Journalists are routinely harassed. Editors and broadcasters received a letter from Al-Shabaab last week instructing them to stop referring to the government and to say “puppets” instead. They were told to call dead insurgents “martyrs”.
