Now this seems to say that the Westgate mall incident was a retaliation for a US led terrorist strike in Somalia which was a retaliation for the US embassy bombing in 1998. War begets war. Had the US used legal instead of xtr-judical powers, the Westgate mall Tragedy would. likely, never have happened. Violence begets Violence. Why the citizens in the US allow this is unknown but it is what is making Americans less safe. "Little is known about the identities of the attackers, beyond their names. Matt Bryden, the former head of the United Nations Monitoring Group on Somalia and Eritrea, said via email that al-Kene and Umayr are known members of al-Hijra, the Kenyan arm of al-Shabab. He added that Nabhan may be a relative of Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, one of the most-wanted al-Qaida operatives in the region and an alleged plotter in the 1998 bombings at U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania that killed more than 250 people. He was killed in 2009 when Navy SEALS led a strike in the town of Barawe in Somalia where he was hiding. Early Saturday, foreign military forces carried out a pre-dawn strike against fighters in the same southern Somali village. The strike in Barawe took place in the hours before morning prayers against what one official said were "high-profile" targets, without providing further details. A Western intelligence official said it appeared likely that either U.S. or French forces carried out the attack. Both insisted on anonymity to discuss intelligence matters."
