 MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) - Ali Said Omar has lived in Mogadishu long enough to know that the only lasting condition in this seaside capital is war.
"Somalia is like an unexploded bomb," the peace activist said Monday, a week after the government drove out a militant Islamic group and took over this notoriously violent city.
But many here believe the only chance for real stability in Somalia lies with international peacekeepers — not with the government, which controlled just one town before Ethiopia intervened in the past 10 days and provided the administration with tanks and MiG fighter jets.
