A Somali woman waves a Somali flag inside a local hall on the last day of a Somali peace conference in Mogadishu 30 August 2007 after six weeks of negotiations that failed to make headway on an accord to end chronic fighting. Talks to halt fighting in Somalia ended in failure, prompting foreign diplomats to press for a new and all-inclusive approach to rescue the African nation from deeper turmoil. Diplomats said a different approach was key to pacifying the country, where numerous UN-backed initiatives have unravelled under a welter of clan feuds and power struggles.
