  • gigio it may be differcult since somalia is in anarchy for the sake of ur own life plz stay away i as a somalia cant even visit it
  • I wouldn't visit that place in a million years!
  • Lonely Planet says that Somaliland (except the disputed parts) is visitable, but recommends you bring a security team. Hargeysia would be a much better bet than Mogadishu, where you have to bring not only a security team but several thousand UN peacekeepers.
  • well, for the thrill seekers, nothing can stop them to go there. I even read a news about 2 american or british journalists who went there and got killed by somalis, i think they were beaten to death.
  • Yep that's the UN Pakistani stadium where they went to sooo that must mean that main road that by there is where the Rangers and them ran the Mogadishu Mile right?
  • i am sorry about my contry
  • You come to the rescue of the American Soldier You must not attack them
