Jewish Life in Mogadisho, Somalia

Hi all.

In my web-browsing I came across a blog by a young Jewish man living in Mogadisho, Somalia. It's very new and only has a few posts to it, but it talks about what life is like in Mogadisho both in general, for minorities, for Avraham, and for the Jewish Community there. It is anything but light reading, some saddening, and much very different from my own reality, but this is perhaps the reason for my sharing.

Man! And he says all he's missing in life in peace!

This is a real motivator for me to be a peaceful person and to bring peace to my world.

It makes me think "what would I do if someone challenged me to give up my religion". I know what I think I'd do, but reality is scary.
