Terror in the Horn?

The Horn of Africa-Kenya, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Somalia, Eritrea, and Sudan - is a volatile environment which offers an advantageous landscape for terrorist organizations and networks to flourish. African initiatives coupled with external United States efforts are attempting to combat this common foe. These efforts have laid a solid foundation for combating terrorism; however, improvements will be needed if the Horn of Africa is to be free of a significant terrorist presence.
