Gao Yang was convinced that if those fanatical lunatics infiltrated the ranks of the Skull Gang, it would spell the end for them.
It might not be an issue in the short term, but ultimately, they were doomed to destruction.
Gao Yang didn't want to see the Skull Gang eventually turn into an extremist force, so, although it went against some of his principles, he decided to dissuade Abu from the idea.
"Listen to me, Abu," I know what Maide is thinking. He wants to turn Somalia into an ideal world; he's an idealist. But as for you, Abu, you need to face reality. There are things he can't do that you can. My advice to you as a friend is to kill all the Somali Youth Party prisoners."
Abu hesitated and said with a troubled expression, "But Maide has said that we should unite all the forces we can, and releasing those prisoners is not a problem. However, if we kill the Somali Youth Party prisoners, then we'll make enemies of them."
