Scahill: US is making enemies in Somalia
New evidence reveals the secret role of the CIA in Somalia. This time it's not only the case of more agents deployed in the country, but an increase of drone attacks and, most significantly, secret prisons run by the CIA. An investigative report in The Nation magazine also gives details on how the Agency trains officers among the Somali and plans missions against members of the Islamic militant group al-Shabaab, believed to have close ties to al-Qaeda. Jeremy Scahill, a national security correspondent and the author of the article, talks to RT's Kristine Frazao.
