Somalia to Get More Peacekeeping Troops
The United Nations Security Council voted unanimously to send additional peacekeeping troops to Somalia during their annual meeting at its headquarters in New York on Friday. Security Council resolution 2010 raised the number of troops for the African Union Mission in Somalia from about 9,300 to 12,000. It also extended its mandate in Somalia until next year. The council has also called on Somalia's transitional government to carry out a roadmap leading to elections within a year. The new troops will likely come from Burundi, Djibouti, Sierra Leone and Uganda. Somalia's Ambassador to the United Nations, Elmi Ahmed Duale, said peacekeepers were urgently needed across his country. Elmi Ahmed Duale said, "Mr. President, as most of the members of the Security Council are aware of, the Somali security forces are overextended at present and they are contained only in Mogadishu and that it is of utmost urgency to enlarge and improve the capabilities of the Somali armed forces and police. Furthermore, as also stated by His Excellency, the Secretary-General, in order to consolidate and build on the recent security gains, it is essential to also enlarge the AMISOM forces. There has been positive reference to this in this resolution." In addition to security issues, Somalia is currently in the throes of a devastating drought and famine.

I do not claim ownership to the music nor pictures used in this video. They all belong to their respective owners. Music is "Day and Night" by Kid Cudi. A video showing all Somali people. The first three photos are of Amira Ahmed, a Swedish model who is half Somali and half Filipino. There are a few photos of Fatima Siad, an American, who is half Somali and half Ethiopian. Everyone else is completely Somali (except the blue eyed, blond Swedish man handing Hawa flowers). The models here are Amira Ahmed, Fatima Siad, Swedish singer Ubah, Swedish model Hawa Ahmed, Canadian model Ubah Hassan, Ayan Elmi, Iman, Canadian supermodel Yasmin Warsame, supermodel and author Waris Dirie. There are occasional pics of non-celebs or Somali models from Sheeko magazine. If you have any requests for the next video "Somali Beauties 2", just send them in. When I have enough, I'll make another video. :) Song requests will be taken too.
