The Alliance for the Restoration of Peace and Counter-Terrorism (ARPCT) ((ソマリ語:''Isbaheysiga Ladagaalanka Argagaxisadda'')) was a Somali alliance created by various warlords and businesspeople. The alliance included Botan Ise Alin, Mohammed Dheere,〔(Intelligence Brief: I.C.U. Expels Warlords from Mogadishu ) PINR〕 Mohamed Qanyare, Musa Sudi Yalahow, Nuur Daqle, Abdi Hasan Awale Qeybdiid, Omar Muhamoud Finnish and others. Some of them were ministers in the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) of Somalia. The International Crisis Group, which had direct contacts with the warlords, said in June 2006 that the CIA was funnelling $100,000 to $150,000 a month to the ARPCT.〔(UN trying to clarify problems in Somalia ) - The Final Call - June 29, 2006〕 == Second Battle of Mogadishu == Events in Mogadishu were mostly peaceful in the first phase of the fighting starting February 18 until May 7 when fighting erupted and the alliance lost battle after battle. Somali Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys said on Radio Shabelle, the violence was started by the people who have proclaimed themselves to be fighters against terrorism. ICU forces defeated the ARPCT and gained control of Mogadishu by June 5. Dubbed the Second Battle of Mogadishu, the defeat forced ARPCT forces to surrender or flee. Some remained in Somalia while others, such as warlords Mohamed Dheere and Mohamed Afrah Qanyare, went to Ethiopia seeking refuge. Both warlords since returned to fight against the ICU in the ensuing war, and are resuming their places in Mogadishu following the Fall of Mogadishu to the Transitional Federal Government and Ethiopian forces in December 2006. ''Africa News'' described the Alliance as disappearing when their regions were over-run by the Islamic Courts Union in 2006.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alliance for the Restoration of Peace and Counter-Terrorism」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
