President Obama Authorizes U.S. Military Support To Somalia

Luke 21:7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will all this happen? What sign will show us that these things are about to take place?”

Luke 21:11 "There will be great earthquakes, and there will be famines and epidemics in many lands, and there will be terrifying things (that which strikes terror), and great miraculous signs in the heavens."

President Obama has removed restrictions that would allow the U.S. military to provide assistance to the Somalian government in their fight against Islamic terrorists who still control large parts of the rural center of the country.

The move now allows Secretary of State John Kerry the right to send troops into Somalia and provide weapons and other defensive aid.

The United Nations Security Council partially lifted a bad on selling arms to Somalia last month.

The al-Qaeda affiliated al-Shabab Islamist group has been attempting to overtake the nation and install a strict Islamic state.

The U.S. formally recognized the Somalian government of President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud after the first free elections since 1991.
