Nope, this ain't a Los Angeles rapid transit line, but the front line in Somalia's civil war. It runs in Mogadishu on a southeast axis down Afgoye Road with Atto controlling the area around the former U.S. embassy and Somali National University and Aideed Jr. controlling the south and the port of Merca. Atto's area borders on the Medina district, where he is backed up by Mussa Sudi, an ally of Mahdi.
