The United Nations occasionally delivers some food trucks to impoverished nations. While this is a good idea to deliver some food there are two problems with the U.N.'s deliveries. The U.N. usually delivers just one truck of food, this amount will not feed all that many in the grand sceme. Which leads me to my next point in Mogadishu, Somalia for instance the ruler of the land Mohammed Jaffar Aidid sends his troops out to intercept the food trucks and use violence to enforce his rules. Aidid takes all the food that is sent to feed his troops leaving none behind for the civilians. In 1993 The United States sent our Marines/Delta Force companies to deal with the situation, however we failed the mission was to take 6 weeks but instead we remained there for over 3 months. We left in disgrace having failed then we have since not tried again. The death toll in Somolia is in the hundreds of thousands, and Somolia was recently ranked as the worst country in the world by the United Nations. So I ask you this: What must be done to ensure that U.N. food packages are distributed as intended?

I believe something similar happened around the same time and place. It boiled down to armed (mostly U.S) troops escorting the food there and handing to the people personaly.

Education and Inspiration.
Educate and inform the people about the evils of the warlords and the moral uproar will be enough to topple them down. Afterwards resume food distribution.
Tis a Filipino saying: "The egg hatches from the inside"
If you force change on them it will produce needless resistance and might cause structural damage but if you inspire change from within it will be a powerful ripple effect.

Bust some skulls and kneecap some people?
Just kidding, though the armed troops idea is pretty good.

Maybe if we ask them gently for a favor?
No, just kidding. ******** the warlords up and do something serious instead of trading embargoes or such crap! Never mind if I sound like a racist, but the boiling pot africa showed more than one time that they are able to do nothing. Just split it in sectors, controlled by various nations until they learned what civilization means.

glass over the whole country and then you solve 2 problems...
1. no more warlords hijacking food shipments.
2. no more people that need to be fed.
there you go, a solution that can be started, and finished, inside of 6 hours.

The big problem with the statement is assuming the UN can actually do anything. It's so corrupt and inefficient that it can't even pass out food properly, which is pretty sad.
