AQ has had activity in that region for years as well.Response by SCPO Joshua I made Nov 11 at 2015 7:49 PM2015-11-11T19:49:34-05:002015-11-11T19:49:34-05:001SG Private RallyPoint Member1102910<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There are several Army activities, the principal of which is support and training to East African nations deploying troops to Somalia. There are smaller activities in other locations of a similar nature.<br />The big deal is that a lot of the latent insurgencies, criminal organizations, and human traffickers are not really contained by borders, and are just fine spreading mayhem all over the place.<br />The Lord's Army (Joseph Kony), Al Shabaab, and Ansar al Islami to name a few. The human trafficking piece is particularly tragic in scope.Response by 1SG Private RallyPoint Member made Nov 11 at 2015 8:52 PM2015-11-11T20:52:34-05:002015-11-11T20:52:34-05:00CSM Charles Hayden1102987<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Similar to SF in the Phillipines.
