Somebody is having fun with a 2006 article. No detailed commentary or refutation unfortunately, just mocking.

"The Mises Institute is “the world center of the Austrian School of economics and libertarian political and social theory.” As part of their mission to bring libertarian political and social theory to a wider audience, they have a website which analyses current affairs from a libertarian perspective.
For example, they have an article called "Stateless in Somalia, and Loving It’, written by someone who works in financial services, which explains that “Somalia has done very well for itself in the 15 years since its government was eliminated. The future of peace and prosperity there depends in part on keeping one from forming.”
This article contends that the problems Somalia faces is because the United Nations and similar big government types keep on trying to force Somalia to have a government, whereas in fact Somali culture is tribal and is based on customary law which is like the laws of nature, so democracy would not work. Furthermore, while media sources such as the BBC report on famine, disease and civil war, they neglect to mention that Somalia’s telecommunications industry is apparently flourishing.
One of the features of the Mises Institute’s website is that it allows its readers to give all of its articles ‘tags’, which generate a weblink which describes the content of the article so that people who are interested can read other, similar articles.
So you can read the full libertarian analysis of how Somalia benefits from not having a government by following any of these links:"
