Keywords:
امريكا, الصومال, سياسة, الارهاب, الاسلام, القرن الافريقيAbstract
The subject of US policy towards Somalia between 2001-2007 deals with an important aspect of the history of US-Somali relations, which have been known since their inception in the second half of the twentieth century, with numerous confrontations, divergence and convergence in different historical stages. The research aims to trace the paths of the hard-line American policy towards Somalia in the stage of the United States' unilateralism as a superpower over the international system, and its declaration of war to combat the so-called "terrorism", which led to Somalia being a field for confronting extremist currents through the United States declaring war by proxy with Ethiopia until it became a kind of The war of attrition with the Mujahideen Youth Movement.
