Excellent article about Somalia

I just ran across this interview/article from the Council on Foreign Relations about Somalia, and it's really excellent.  A good explanation of the real situation in Somalia (unlike what you'll read in New York Times or Washington Post).

One thing that I didn't know and which rather shocked me from the article, is that apparently AMISOM troops (African Union Mission in Somalia) haven't been paid in nine months and some have died from malnutrition.  I knew the situation of international troops keeping the Transitional Federal Government in power was unsustainable, but that's just so much worse than anything I'd imagined.
