newsinsdeMOGADISHU — The leader of Somalia's Al-Qaeda-inspired Shebab group, which claimed responsibility for deadly attacks in Uganda, thanked the bombers Thursday and warned that more operations were to come.

"What happened in Kampala is just the beginning," Mohamed Abdi Godane, also known as Abu Zubayr, said in an audio message broadcast on several Mogadishu radio stations.

At least 73 people were killed in bomb explosions targeting two Kampala entertainment spots where crowds of people had gathered to watch the football World Cup final on July 11.

baadiyow @ 7/16/2010 7:52 AM EST   Jaalle warkaaga wuxuu u biyo dhacaayaa dabo-dhilifnimo, ajaanib baxsad ah. Midda kale, ma Soomaalidaa khayaarka leh mise, waxaa u meerinaayaa bunch of lunatics. You either have no heart and chase illusiions, or you haven't clue the dire situation we are in.

Lamadage @ 7/16/2010 1:42 AM EST  Baadiyow, Somali Islamist is not in illusion when it comes what they want to see in Somali state. They may differ/clash sometimes on certain slogans but the end game never will. If you think defeating BX or XI means end of the road you are reading Najib maxfuudh fictitious books! It was yesterday when then ICU became BX/XI. Tomorrow it can be another name but all in same message with different density and strokes. Reading Somali political landscape need real intellect let alone knowledge of real Islamic teaching. Your group lacks both of them as many know in this medium. For revenge for Somali/ migrate Muslim is sanction by real Islam. Unless you are the group I knew in Xamar, Abu Zubeir named this attack after one of migrant Muslims who left his homeland for deen. He was killed by American C130 in Brava area qadran wa khayaanatan. We belief that he -walaa nuzakii calallaahi axad- martyrdom insha Allah for the cause of Allah. People with steel faith know American drone killings neither is justice nor serve tranquility it yearns. Such killing is nothing but Judeo Christian dream to create slaves! And that will not happen Insha Allah forever.

Anti-dabdhilifs @ 7/15/2010 10:14 PM EST  adamajama! It does make a difference. Lets put the other way. What difference does it make to the dead Ugandas wheather they were killed  by LRA group or Alshabaab. Killing is killing right? If you belive it doesn't make any difference in this case, yo wouldnot worry about those 73 ugandas and "global reaction"  LRA group killed 300 people last May  of this year, and Westren news didnot cover it the way they are covering those 73 Ugands.

baadiyow @ 7/15/2010 6:34 PM EST   Lamadage, what is raging between these alshayadiin is not DEBATE, but they are fortunately ELIMENATING each other. You are Godane is Somali (although he prefer to be Afghan\Arab), but who did he said he is revenging for Alnabhan (another dead fugitive). Man get a grip, you lost the plot, and you are still unashamedly trying to glorify Alshayaadiin. Soomalidu gumaysi Etoobiya iyo mid Alqaacida diiday. Haddii aad ku riyoonayso in Soomaalidu aqbasho dabo-dhilifnimo Usama iyo ajaanib hurdadaas inaadan seexan ayaa laguu qaatay, kallaa!

Lamadage @ 7/15/2010 5:38 PM EST  Abu zubeir’s belief is not that different than that many Somali Islamist he commands. What Ugandese did to our people will not be forgiven or forgotten. You may differ with Abu zubeir stand but if you were in Mogadishu and saw to what has happen on our people in the hands of Ugandan Army you will agree with him for revenge for our people. Anyway, Somali Islamist is not all monolithic despite they are agrees on fighting against AMISOM invaders. Inside Somali Islamist a debate is raging on. As a result there are three schools that debate vigorously in their circles: 1) First school is on opinion: secure Somalia then announce unilaterally an Islamic Somali state. Support of this is not that great. 2)  Second school believes: kick out AMISOM forces and build Somali consensus among all Somali stakeholder and have Islamic Somali State that bring peace and prosperity to this broken nation. Support of this stand is getting some momentum at this time. 3) Last school: continue this Jihad until Muslims rule in this world. This group is getting less and less by each day despite that glad tiding will come one day. MOMO Abu Zubeir is Somali man not what you call Somalilander
