look I did send my troops to Somaila


Somalia's Islamic Courts have today said that large number of Ethiopian troops entered Somalia.
In a press conference held in Mogadishu, the Islamic Courts Security Council head Sheik Yusuf Indho-adde reiterated that unverified number of Ethiopian troops came in Somalia.
Indho-adde said it's an aggression of Ethiopia that is accustomed to coming in and out of Somalia when it desires.
"We are not going to invade a neighboring country. We are asking the world to keep a breast of Ethiopia's illegal movement in Somalia", said Indho-adde, inciting the UN and Arab League to try to halt Ethiopia's intervention in Somalia.
Union of Islamic Courts took over the last port town of Kismayu, where demonstrations against them took place.
The Islamists are reported to fire shots after the demonstration turned out violent.
Demonstrators set tires a blaze chanting anti-Islamist slogans.
At least two persons are reported killed in the riot.
Islamists' security council head mentioned about 50-100 Ethiopian armored vehicles had entered Somalia from Gedo region, southern Somalia, where Somalia borders Ethiopia, adding the Ethiopian troops went straight to Baidoa, the temporary base for Somalia's virtually shaky government to shield interim president Abdulahi Yusuf's government.
Reliable sources in Bardalle district of Bay region told Shabelle radio in Mogadishu that about 50 Ethiopian battlewagons had arrived in Baidoa.
The Islamic Courts first assistant chairperson Abdirahman Jinikow vowed the Islamists would fight Ethiopia if it did not renounce entering Somalia.
