Maybe we should just be happy he's not working at an even more important job in D.C.
CNN has found an alleged war criminal from Somalia now working in the United States as an airport security guard.
Yusuf Abdi Ali was a commander during the Somali Civil War during the 1980s and has been accused of ordering the torture and executions of civilians in what has been called a genocide.
When CNN found out that he was living and working in the United States, they sent a crew to his workplace, Dulles International Airport in Northern Virginia, just minutes from Washington, D.C.
Ali, also known as Colonel Tukeh, helped suppress resistance to the dictatorship of Mohammed Siad Barre. He's not a remotely obscure figure since he has been pursued for war crimes for a while now. He was deported from Canada. It's nothing short of bizarre that he could get a job at Dulles.
Mohammed Siad Barre believed that Islam and Socialism could be combined. He was quoted as saying,
"As far as socialism is concerned, it is not a heavenly message like Islam but a mere system for regulating the relations between man and his utilization of the means of production in this world. If we decide to regulate our national wealth, it is not against the essence of Islam. Allah has created man and has given him the faculty of mind to choose between good and bad, between virtue and vice. We have chose social justice instead of exploitation of man by man and this is how we can practically help the individual Muslim and direct him to [a] virtuous life. However, the reactionaries wanted to create a rift between socialism and Islam because socialism is not in their interest."
There you go. Social justice. No wonder Ali could get a job at Dulles. All you need is Islam, Socialism and Social Justice. These are far more important than airport security.
