What do American teenagers and Al-Shabaab have in common?

Recommended Posts

The leaders of al-Shabab are called "emirs" and they do not usually come from the region they administer.

 

The emirs are said to use
text messaging systems
daily. The mid-ranking emirs and foot soldiers are given prepaid phone cards to carry out their day-to-day operations.

 

Text messages are also used to threaten those al-Shabab believes oppose them.
