What "Muslims" are fighting for depends on the fight, depends on the Muslim. Somalias war is one of simple greed. Tribalism is the excuse.

Muslims are not fighting beacuse they are muslims.
for some, it's the lust for power, while for others it's tribal bulshit or foreign influence etc etc
no muslim is fighitng another muslim for simple reason of him/her being a muslim! period.

Warfare revolves around two things:
Greed (read money)
Power (read political control)
No organized entities fight over anything else, although most claim they do. That's because it's tough to motivate the masses by saying "Hey, let's go fight those guys so we can steal their shit".

Course, while one my agree with ol' George's sentiment, the reality is, he clobbered in the presidential race.

Focking media is driving me crazy. Some ceeb drives around in the middle of nowhere Pakistan, then claims the government is doing nearly what it could. How the hell does he know what the government could and could not be doing? What do they think the government officials are doing, just sitting back and saying "ahhh fock 'em. Who cares. Just a bunch of village idiots anyway?" I heard Musharraf was apologizing that the government didn't move faaster. It takes weeks to effectively organize massive relief. These focking guys........
