Al Shabab: Michelle Sheppard

Al Shabab Dept: Investigative reporter Michelle Sheppard s excellent reporting into Somalia s Al Shabab s activities, revealing that many Canadians have joined the fight, is most troubling. I have to wonder if this is not yet another case of these foreign fighters simply wanting Canadian citizenship for its convenience, when needed, according to The Star. More scrutiny during the immigration process is required to weed out such individuals in the future and re: Somali fighters retreat to mountain hideout, Dec. 17 Certainly it raises the problems, again, of allowing Canadians to hold dual citizenship, thus mixed country loyalties. I have to wonder how well these Canadian Al Shabab members will reintegrate into Canadian society after being engaged in a war in their homeland. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
