Podcast appearances and mentions of al shabaab

Ilhan Omar is facing intense scrutiny over alleged involvement in a billion-dollar Al-Shabaab fraud scheme.

In this snow-day edition of Geopolitics with Ghost, Gordon breaks down the fast-moving and deeply tangled situation unfolding in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda. He walks through the Trump-brokered peace signing with Presidents Kagame and Tshisekedi, the ongoing M23 rebel clashes, and why the mineral-rich Kivu region sits at the center of a decades-long geopolitical struggle. Ghost connects the dots on how rare earth metals, tech giants like Apple, Gulf-state investment, and the long shadow of the Israeli diamond cartel all converge in this conflict. From Mossad's covert interference to coup attempts, laundered minerals, and the collapse of legacy monopolies, Ghost exposes how global powers are reshaping Africa's future, and how Trump's strategy is forcing bad actors into the light. He also examines Apple's legal troubles, Al-Shabaab's sudden appearance in the region, and the broader implications for Russia, China, Venezuela, and the emerging sovereign-alliance realignment. A packed episode loaded with evidence, timelines, maps, and hard truths, all pointing to a world in rapid transition.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for December 3, 2025. 0:30 President Trump just killed Biden’s CAFE standards— and the auto world is cheering. Today we break down how one move out of Washington could mean cheaper cars, more choices, and a little relief for America’s working families. Why were automakers smiling in the Oval Office? And why were Biden’s rules quietly driving car prices into the stratosphere? 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. Republican Matt Van Epps is heading to Congress. President Trump pardoned Democrat Congressman Henry Cuellar this week. Former special council Jack Smith has been subpoenaed in relation to his election-related investigation of Donald Trump. 12:30 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 When the left runs out of arguments, they grab the same old playbook—cry “Hitler!” and hope nobody notices the logic falling apart. Today we break down the latest example out of Minneapolis, where a city council member compared ICE officers checking immigration documents to Nazi Germany. We dig into why this argument collapses on contact with reality, why every civilized nation on earth enforces immigration law, and why the left refuses to call illegal immigration what it is. 15:30 A preacher steps into the pulpit in upstate New York… and announces he’s transitioning. The congregation is stunned, the sermon turns into a therapy session, and suddenly the focus is everything but the Bible. So what do the American Mamas think when a pastor uses Sunday morning to talk sexual identity and politics instead of scripture? Terry and Kimberly jump in with their own church experiences, the fallout from Methodist splits, and why so many people are tired of pastors turning sermons into social-issue spotlights. 23:00 When a member of Congress claims that “Black and brown voters belong to her,” we dive into why that kind of rhetoric isn’t just politically toxic—it’s morally backwards. Is America really heading toward a future run on racial math instead of individual merit? And what happens to the dream of a colorblind society when politicians double down on identity politics just to win an election? 26:00 Thomas Jefferson warned us back in 1781 — and today, it looks like his prediction has come true. We unpack Jefferson’s concerns about importing large groups from nations with corrupt or authoritarian governments and how those political habits can follow them into America. Fast-forward to modern Minneapolis, where the mass resettlement of Somali immigrants has led to fraud investigations, missing government funds, and even money funneled to Al-Shabaab. From ghost employees in Somalia to billions in questionable payments in Minnesota, we're seeing the reality that Jefferson warned us about so long ago — immigration only works when newcomers join American society, not when they bring dysfunctional systems with them. 32:00 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 California’s at it again — and this time Gavin Newsom is floating a “retroactive” billionaire tax that would hit anyone worth over a billion dollars based on their wealth from the year before the tax even exists. We break down how California is trying to chase down its shrinking tax base, whether a state can legally tax people who no longer live there, and why high-rollers keep packing their U-Hauls for places like Texas. 35:30 With more Americans questioning whether college is worth the price tag, one major tech company is stepping in with a very different solution. Palantir’s new “Meritocracy Fellowship” tells high-school graduates to skip the debt, skip the indoctrination, and jump straight into real-world work. We dig deep into how Palantir is offering intense training in Western civilization, hands-on engineering assignments for U.S. government clients, and real pay — all without a four-year degree. 40:00 Are good manners suddenly “sexist”? We dive into the simple act of holding the door — and why something as basic as courtesy has somehow become controversial. We break down what chivalry actually means, why respect has nothing to do with weakness, and how common kindness still surprises visitors to the American South. 41:30 We finish off with a kind stranger who returned a lost wallet and really showed that the Christmas spirit is alive and well.

A billion-dollar fraud scandal in Minnesota under Gov. Tim Walz is under federal investigation. Claims of stolen taxpayer funds, ties to al-Shabaab, whistleblower suppression, and visa fraud explode into a national security story. The panel discusses the chaos, fallout, and demands for accountability.

Federal prosecutors have charged dozens of people with defrauding Minnesota social programs since 2020, and recent reporting has highlighted the links between the fraud schemes and the Somali-American community. In November, a report authored by Ryan Thorpe and Christopher Rufo and published in City Journal — a periodical funded by the conservative think tank The Manhattan Institute — highlighted the fraud's concentration among the state's Somali community and claimed the funds were partially directed to the Somali-based terrorist group Al-Shabaab. On Monday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced that the agency would be opening an investigation into Gov. Tim Walz's (D) oversight of the programs beset by alleged fraud; the House Oversight Committee opened its own probe into the programs on Tuesday.

Whistleblower Allegations Over 400 employees from the Minnesota Department of Health and Human Services claim they warned Governor Walz about the fraud early but faced retaliation instead of cooperation. Allegations include monitoring, threats, and discrediting of fraud reports. Nature of the Fraud Fraud reportedly involved members of the Somali diaspora misappropriating millions from Medicaid autism programs. Funds allegedly sent overseas to terrorist organizations like Al-Shabaab. Nearly 100 autism clinics investigated for fraudulent billing. Political Dimension Walz ignored the issue for political gain, citing the Somali community’s voting power. Democrats were prioritizing votes over accountability. Media Criticism Mainstream media downplayed the scandal. NBC’s interview with Walz was “softball” at best, allowing him to deflect blame and attack Donald Trump. Governor’s Response Walz acknowledges responsibility for prosecuting offenders but rejects demonizing an entire community. Minnesota’s prosperity and social programs were blaming federal cuts for oversight challenges. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Somali Minnesotans are being targeted by the Trump administration. On Monday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt spoke about the Feeding Our Future fraud scheme, citing convictions of people of Somali descent. Leavitt used the case to drive home a narrative that Somalis who emigrated to Minnesota should leave the country. President Donald Trump – has without proof – said that Somali people are funneling money to the terrorist group Al Shabaab. And the U-S Treasury is now investigating that claim. Joining Minnesota Now to talk about the impact of the rhetoric from the federal government in Ahmed Samatar, James Wallace professor of international studies at Macalester College.

Massive Welfare Fraud in Minnesota Funding Terrorism Allegations that Minnesota taxpayers indirectly funded the terrorist group Al-Shabab through fraudulent welfare programs. Fraud reportedly involved members of the Somali community, with billions of dollars stolen and millions sent to Somalia, some ending up with Al-Shabaab. The program cited is Minnesota’s Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services (HHS), which ballooned from an estimated $2.6 million to over $104 million annually before being scrapped. Criminal indictments have been announced, but the commentary criticizes lack of media coverage and political accountability. University of Minnesota’s “Whiteness Pandemic” Concept The university published material describing “whiteness” as a cultural pandemic driving racism. Family systems perpetuate whiteness and calls for self-reflection and re-education for white individuals. The commentary strongly condemns this as Marxist, anti-family, and anti-American ideology, framing it as indoctrination in higher education. Texas Designates Muslim Brotherhood and CARE as Terrorist Organizations Texas Governor Greg Abbott declared CARE (Council on American-Islamic Relations) and the Muslim Brotherhood as foreign terrorist and transnational criminal organizations. This move prevents these groups from acquiring land in Texas. The discussion highlights CARE’s alleged financial support for anti-Israel campus protests and the broader legislative push to federally designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. Mentions bipartisan efforts in Congress (Senators Ted Cruz and John Fetterman) and resistance from the State Department. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Minnesota Nice

The Department of Justice has opened an investigation into the "Seditious Six," the Democrats who urged service members to disregard what they called illegal orders from the Trump administration.U.S. District Judge Cameron Currie, a Clinton appointee, threw out the cases against former FBI director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James on the grounds that the prosecutor was illegally appointed. The cases against Comey and James were dismissed without prejudice, meaning they could be re-filed.A 26-year-old woman was set on fire on Chicago's Blue Line after reportedly getting into an argument with a career criminal named Lawrence Reed. According to the initial reporting, Reed had 22 prior arrests. And while that's certainly bad enough, that was incorrect. It turns out Reed had 72 prior arrests with 15 convictions, with at least 10 of them being felonies, including for arson. (And despite an upward adjustment from the early reporting, the real numbers were not made public until federal authorities got involved.) And oh, by the way, Reed and his victim didn't get into an argument either. Reed just came up to her, doused her with gasoline, and set her on fire. Jurors are outraged after a Minnesota judge overturned the conviction of 45-year-old Abdifatah Yusuf for stealing $7.2 million through a fraudulent health care company.President Donald Trump announced that he will end the Temporary Protected Status (TPS Program) for Somali migrants in Minnesota, who've been connected to a massive welfare fraud and funding of Al-Shabaab.Researchers at the University of Minnesota's Institute of Child Development are facing criticism after launching a website claiming that America is suffering from a “Whiteness Pandemic.”Bethany MaGee's GoFundMeBecome a supporter of Tapp into the Truth: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tapp-into-the-truth--556114/support Tapp into the Truth on Rumble.

Trump moves to end protections for Somali immigrants in Minnesota after reports tie taxpayer funds to massive fraud and terrorism financing. The panel breaks down the alleged $250M scheme, Al-Shabaab links, assimilation failures, and backlash from state leaders.

Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Resignation Greene announced she will resign from Congress in January. This is a significant moment for the Republican Party, emphasizing internal accountability and contrasting it with perceived Democratic inaction on radical elements. Greene’s shift from pro-Trump to anti-Israel and anti-capitalist positions is highlighted as a cautionary tale. Donald Trump’s withdrawal of support is portrayed as the decisive factor in her resignation. Minnesota Welfare Fraud Funding Al-Shabaab A report claims Minnesota taxpayers indirectly funded the terrorist group Al-Shabaab through massive welfare fraud. Fraud involved members of the Somali community in Minnesota, exploiting Medicaid programs like Housing Stabilization Services. Billions of dollars were stolen, with millions allegedly routed to Somalia and ultimately to Al-Shabaab via informal money networks. The commentary criticizes Democratic leadership and media for ignoring the issue, framing it as both a security threat and a failure of governance. Texas Redistricting Battle Texas redrew its congressional map to add five Republican seats. A federal district court struck down the map, but Justice Alito issued a stay, keeping the new map in place for now. This decision could determine control of the House and contrasts Republican and Democratic gerrymandering practices. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Ready for an explosive episode of Joe Oltmann Untamed, as we dive into the heart of America's battle for freedom. First, we tackle the shocking persecution of Tina Peters, the 70-year-old Gold Star Mother and election integrity hero thrown into solitary confinement at La Vista State Prison after exposing 2020 election irregularities. With updates from her own X post, Joe Oltmann's war cry, and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's outrage, we'll expose the Colorado government's brutal retaliation—strip searches, windowless cells, and a 17-day lockup—while rallying you to join the #FreeTinaPeters movement. Don't miss our urgent call to action to save this patriot from the Deep State's clutches.Next, we unleash intelligence titan Michael Waller, Senior Analyst at the Center for Security Policy and author of Big Intel, to dissect the Marxist infiltration turning our CIA and FBI from Cold War victors to woke warriors. From the “long march through the institutions” to chilling reversals of counterintelligence against American citizens, Waller will name names and reveal how the Left hijacked our spy agencies. With his firsthand experience under CIA Director Bill Casey, this is a masterclass in fighting the ideological subversion threatening our Republic—tune in and arm yourself with truth.We tackle today's breaking news: Democrats' call for the military to defy Trump sparks a fiery exchange with President Trump and Michigan Senator Slotkin, dissected with Joe Oltmann's X take.

A ROMAN PLAYWRIGHT named Plautus wrote, “Man is a wolf to man.” He wasn't wrong, but he didn't see the spiritual forces behind the humans who prey on others. This week, we discuss the abduction of more than 200 students and teachers Friday from a Catholic school in Nigeria, just a few days after 25 schoolgirls were abducted at another Nigerian school. These are just the latest incidents in a long series of attacks against Christian communities by Muslims in Nigeria. We also learned this week that the largest source of funding for the Somali Islamist militant group Al-Shabaab is the Minnesota taxpayer. According to the U.S. Attorney for Minnesota, fraudulent schemes by Minnesota's Somali immigrant community have funneled hundreds of millions of dollars in state and federal Medicaid funds to the Al Qaeda-linked terrorist group. This is what happens when a tribal culture meets a liberal Western political system guided by suicidal empathy.  We also discuss another story that's come to light after thirty years: “Sniper tourism,” where, during the 1993–96 siege of Sarajevo, Bosnia, wealthy Westerners allegedly paid Serbian militia units between $75,000 and $100,000 to spend a weekend targeting unarmed civilians.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 20, 2025. 0:30 We are sounding the alarm because six Democratic members of Congress put out a video telling U.S. service members they can “refuse illegal orders.” That may sound fine on this surface, but this video isn’t about law at all. It’s about planting the idea that orders from President Trump himself are somehow optional. We break down what the Constitution says about following the president's orders and how this video is just another attempt to delegitimize President Trump. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. According to data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the US Economy added 119,000 jobs in September. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has put a halt to a new California law that would have required companies all across the country to post on their website all of their carbon emissions. Democrat Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick has been indicted for campaign finance fraud. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:30 The discussion of the "refuse illegal orders" video continues, and we're calling out the Democrats' hypocrisy. The Democrats want to label January 6th an “insurrection,” but that label is far more fitting for the video that these six Democratic lawmakers put out. And isn't funny that these lawmakers never identify any supposed unlawful orders? This isn't harmless political theater. 16:00 The American Mamas tackle a difficult listener question: When a couple divorces, should they tell the kids if infidelity was involved? Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson explore different perspectives on honesty, timing, protecting children, and how to handle complicated situations when emotions are high. The conversation highlights how every family’s circumstances are different — and why compassion and careful communication matter. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 We react to Senator Bernie Moreno's claim that "the American dream is dead." While the last four years under Biden were undeniably brutal for working families, America’s promise isn’t gone—just bruised by bad policy. 25:30 We Dig Deep into a jaw-dropping investigation out of Minnesota that traces massive state-funded fraud back to the wave of Somali refugees resettled during the Obama administration. We walk listeners through explosive reporting from City Journal showing how tens of millions—eventually hundreds of millions—of taxpayer dollars from housing and autism-related programs were siphoned off through fake clients, fake services, and kickback schemes run predominantly by individuals tied to the Somali refugee community in Minneapolis. The numbers are staggering: programs that were supposed to cost a couple million ballooning to over $100 million… autism funding exploding from $3 million to $399 million… and remittances being funneled overseas at such scale that U.S. Somali residents send more money abroad than Somalia’s entire national budget. And the part that stops everyone in their tracks? DOJ tracing significant chunks of that money straight into the accounts of terrorist group Al-Shabaab—leading to the chilling conclusion that Minnesota taxpayers have become the largest funders of Al-Shabaab. 32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:00 We break down how, throughout history, communist regimes have always feared religion—not because prayer is dangerous, but because faith gives people something the state can’t tolerate: hope, identity, and loyalty that doesn’t flow through government power. It's no coincidence that Zoran Mamdani said that no issue is too small for the government to meddle in. The lefts wants the government to become like God. 35:30 Plus, Thanksgiving dinner is actually getting cheaper this year, and that's a Bright Spot. We break down the newest numbers from the American Farm Bureau and talk about what the drop in costs says about affordability, the economy, and why it’s a bright spot worth celebrating. 40:00 We dive into Megan Rapinoe’s latest comments on transgender athletes in women’s sports—and, yes, her unexpected comparison involving Landon Donovan’s hairline. According to Rapinoe, men in women's supports is comparable to a coach wearing a hearpiece. Her argument has us saying, "Whoa."

Analizamos cómo la fragmentación del poder dio paso a señores de la guerra como Mohamed Farrah Aidid, el papel de la comunidad internacional y la desastrosa intervención estadounidense de 1993. Profundizamos en el surgimiento de los Tribunales Islámicos, su intento de orden y posterior derrota por parte de Etiopía, y la aparición del grupo yihadista Al Shabaab, actor clave en el conflicto desde 2007. Además, evaluamos la situación actual del país: la lucha entre el Gobierno Federal, Al Shabaab, y las regiones independientes como Somalilandia y Puntlandia, todo enmarcado en la rivalidad regional y la geopolítica del Cuerno de África. Temas tratados: - Mohamed Farrah Aidid y la guerra civil post-1991 - Intervención de la ONU y EE.UU. (Black Hawk Down, 1993) - Los Tribunales Islámicos y la efímera paz en Mogadiscio - Invasión etíope y caída de la UIC (2006) - Al Shabaab: origen, ideología y expansión - Estado actual del conflicto y desafíos para Somalia Un análisis riguroso, sin presentismos ni simplificaciones, sobre un conflicto que sigue marcando el destino del Cuerno de África.

Og hva er egentlig greia med Somaliland? Du får dessuten en liten smakebit fra Marens intervju med en somalisk storkar. Du kan lese hele intervjuet på vår Substack. Hosted on Acast.

PREVIEW: MOGADISHU: Colleague Caleb Weiss of FDD reports that Turkey and Qatar are investors in growing Mogadishu, despite the constant threat of Al Qaeda's Al Shabaab. More to come. 1856 SOMALIA

Last week it was the failed welfare bill causing an embarrassing rebellion for the government. And now this week, Labour have set themselves up for more anarchy on the back benches with their plans to scrap support for children with special educational needs.Rachel Reeves has to find £5 billion to fill her black hole, and Tim Stanley and Cleo Watson discuss the Chancellor's conundrum, whether they could end up raising money through a wealth tax, and how Starmer's government has to get better at party management.And on the anniversary of the 7/7 London bombings, we speak to Gordon Rayner about his Telegraph exclusive investigation into Samantha Lewthwaite aka the “White Widow”, who married one of the bombers before vanishing and joining forces with the terror group Al-Shabaab, becoming one of Britain's most wanted terror suspects.Producer: Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineySocial Media Producer: James SimmonsVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan SearleOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textOnes Ready goes scorched earth on the Manda Bay attack—a tragic cocktail of leadership failure, intelligence gaps, and straight-up tactical laziness that left Americans dead and a base in flames. This isn't just a “bad day at work” story—this is what happens when we let comfort, complacency, and half-baked threat assessments set the tempo.In this episode, we dissect the 2020 al-Shabaab attack on Manda Bay, Kenya, and the damning DoD report that followed. From unmanned gates to zero reaction plans, we break down just how avoidable this disaster was—and why the term “low-risk” might as well be a death sentence. Hard truths, hard lessons, and no pulled punches.

“90% of Somali people don't know the value of art. That is the problem.”Maslah Abdi Dahir has been threatened by the Islamist insurgent group Al Shabaab who believe portraiture is ‘haram' or forbidden under Islam. Other Somalis have told him art is a waste of time with so many people out of work.But the Prime Minister spotted and praised his work and he has 250K followers on TikTok. So what drives the 28 year old founder of Mogadishu's art centre and school?For today's Africa Daily, Peter Musembi speaks with Maslah Abdi Dahir – and one of his students Anisa Abdulahi Farah.Produced by Mohamed Gabobe in Mogadishu.

In this episode of The Horn, Alan Boswell is joined by Annette Weber, the European Union's Special Representative for the Horn of Africa. They discuss how the first months of Donald Trump's presidency have affected the region and whether the EU and other regional actors can step in to fill the humanitarian aid gap created by cuts in U.S. funding. They explore why the region appears to face so many deteriorating crises at once. They examine the prospects for diplomacy to address both the longstanding and emerging crises across the region, including the war in Sudan, the deepening political crisis in South Sudan that threatens to escalate into full-scale war, rising tensions between Ethiopia and Eritrea and the recent Al-Shabaab offensive in Somalia. They also discuss Europe's response to the security crisis in the Red Sea. Finally, with the West in crisis, they consider how the EU diplomacy in the region might adapt.For more, check out recent publications “Two Years On, Sudan's War is Spreading”, “Ethiopia and Eritrea Slide Closer to War amid Tigray Upheaval” and “South Sudan on the Precipice of Renewed Full-blown War” as well as our Horn of Africa regional page.

PREVIEW: Colleague Caleb Weiss of FDD reports on the origin and type of drones used in Somalia by al-Qaeda affiliate al-Shabaab and breakaway jihadist ISIS. More later.

In this episode of The Horn, Alan is joined by Omar Mahmood, Crisis Group's Senior Analyst for Somalia and the Horn of Africa to discuss Somalia's uncertain new global context with the dawn of a new Trump administration. They first unpack the recent Ankara declaration between Somalia and Ethiopia and the failure to find funding for the new African Union mission in Somalia. They then explore what the Trump administration might do on Somalia, the potential for a major rupture in Washington's support for Somalia's federal government, and what this could mean for European, Turkish and Arab support for Somalia's government. They also assess new offensives from Al-Shabaab and how the group is trying to posture itself amid all these shifts.

“We had a case of a little cell of Christian believers who were all converts from Islam, and they were meeting secretly. And they were infiltrated by a radical terrorist group called Al Shabaab, and they burnt down the house. They captured some of them, they took them onto the beach, and only two of them managed to survive, because they killed the rest of them.”Charmaine Hedding is the founder and president of the Shai Fund, a humanitarian organization that aids, protects, and even rescues persecuted minorities throughout the Middle East and Africa.“In 2014, I watched as the Islamic State swept over Syria and Iraq. And I watched as the Yazidi and the Christian women were taken as sex slaves and sold in the markets of Raqqa and in Turkey and across the Middle East. And I thought to myself, ‘Who's going to do something about this?'” she says. “The greatest struggle in the Middle East and in Africa, at the moment, is this concept of freedom of religion and belief.”Hedding was born and raised in South Africa, where her father and grandfather were outspoken anti-apartheid activists. Because of their activism, they were eventually forced to flee to Jerusalem when Hedding was a child.“By the time I was 12, we were harassed by agents. And we had agents in the church. We were followed,” she says. “The question that I remember asking myself as a child after reading the stories of the Holocaust is: If I was a European, what would I have done? And would I have put myself at risk to save a Jewish family? And that's what motivated me, that question.”Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Since Kenya's invasion of Somalia in 2011, the Kenyan state has been engaged in direct combat with the Somali militant group Al-Shabaab, conducting airstrikes in southern Somalia and deploying heavy-handed police tactics at home. As the hunt for suspects has expanded within Kenya, Kenyan Muslims have been subject to disappearances and extrajudicial killings at the hands of U.S.-trained Kenyan police. War-Making as Worldmaking: Kenya, the United States, and the War on Terror (Stanford University Press, 2024) by Dr. Samar Al-Bulushi explores the entanglement of militarism, imperialism, and liberal-democratic governance in East Africa today. Dr. Al-Bulushi argues that Kenya's emergence as a key player in the "War on Terror" is closely linked—but not reducible to—the U.S. military's growing proclivity to outsource the labor of war. Attending to the cultural politics of security, Dr. Al-Bulushi illustrates that the war against Al-Shabaab has become a means to produce new fantasies, emotions, and subjectivities about Kenya's place in the world. Meanwhile, Kenya's alignment with the U.S. provides cover for the criminalization and policing of the country's Muslim minority population. How is life lived in a place that is not understood to be a site of war, yet is often experienced as such by its targets? This book weaves together multiple scales of analysis, asking what a view from East Africa can tell us about the shifting configurations and expansive geographies of post-9/11 imperial warfare. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

“She was buried in the same place where she was murdered, at the field in the crops.” Today on the podcast we hear about the life and death of Swedish-Somali journalist Amun Abuhulahi Mohamed, who also worked to advocate for the advancement of women in Somalia. She was shot multiple times in the head by gunmen as she walked to her sorghum and watermelon farm in a rural part of Somalia, 40 kilometres from Mogadishu. She'd moved back to Somalia after years of threats and intimidation in Sweden because of her investigation into Al Shabaab's recruitment of Somali youths in Stockholm in 2009. Presenter: Alan @Kasujja Guests: Abdulaziz Ahmed, Amun's husband, and Abdalle Mumin, secretary general of the Somali Journalists Syndicate Producer: Layla Mahmood
