"The UN's World Food Programme (WFP) has pulled out of large parts of southern Somalia because of threats from powerful Islamist rebel groups.
The WFP says the partial suspension of its operations will affect about one million people.
The al-Shabab militant group has repeatedly threatened the WFP - who it accuses of ruining local farming by forcing Somalis to rely on imports.
The WFP says without help, Somali farmers cannot supply enough food. "
SO THESE RADICAL SAVAGES ARE STARVING THEIR OWN PEOPLE NOW

Desperate times calls for desperate measures no matter how sinister they are. That's just pathetic.
