Oil etc.

Hi Abdi Aar. Regarding your post on U.S. oil interests etc. in Somalia, please note that this material was previously included but was removed by another editor because it was too speculative and minutiae. Per WP:SS, the section is only meant to summarize/provide a lead-in for the subtopic article devoted to the subject. In this case that would be War in Somalia (2006-2009).
