Radio stations in Somalia prohibited from playing music by totally lame Islamist insurgents

"We are using other sounds such as gunfire, the noise of the vehicles and birds to link up our programmes and news." —Abdulahi Yasin Jama, of Tusmo radio in Somalia, reacting to a ban on broadcasting music or jingles, issued 10 days ago by Islamic militants. The country has a majority Sunni muslim population, most of whom appear to feel that the ban totally sucks. There is ongoing violence, and at least 11 were killed in fighting this week.
