Trust me, this one is gong to be missed by the Western news organizations, who, amidst their chest-beating liberalism, couldn't give a crap what type of suffering befalls the black people of Africa at the hands of radical Islamism (Darfur, anyone?). Here, in a new front of the war between Islamic radicalism and Christian civilization (yes, Ethiopia is mostly, and deeply, Christian, though in its own kind of way), Ethiopia is apparently coming to the defense of the Somalian President against the Islamists, who have been consolidating power there. Arab fighters are already on the ground, according to the AP (which DEBKA reported some time ago).
Look at your maps -- this is an important battle for control of the key chokepoint to the Suez Canal (American, NATO and Israeli naval vessels share responsibility for terrorist interdiction activity between Africa and the Arabian Peninsula now in that region). Expect to see the Russian merchant of death Putin siding with the Islamists -- among other things, this war, if it develops into a full fledged conflaguration, could help make Russia's energy assets more strategically important to the Western world.
Hopefully, the West stands with Ethiopia on this one.
