That's good I haven't read The book but it's good for Somaliland to erase the cancerous union history of 1960 to 1990. In reality we were only together from 1960 to 1979. From 1979 to 1991 we were at war with somalia.We started the SNM rebellion 1979 and we didn't recognize a Somali state. Cause Somaliland didnt gain anything from the union no economic prosperity and no infrastructure the union only caused war and misery and destruction. Faisal waa halyey

Ahmed abiye is playing good politics a good gesture towards the onlf separatists maybe he would reach out to them. Or wants to reach out to them to accept The eprdf constitution. All in all This a good move done by the new prime minister. I think he wants the onlf on board before the oil exploration and drilling begins in kilil Somali.

Oromo don't trade They are professional beggers. The only foreigners that open up businesses in Somaliland are Yemenis mostly cafes and food places. And djiboutians.

I agree with observer ileey might not be a great guy or honest or the best leader or politician in Ethiopia for the somali ethnic. But atleast he sits at the table with the tigre leaders he is a soldier who stands firm. He also pushes back the gallas. Because They don't care whether abdi ileey rules or another abdi rules. The gallas want to expand their sphere of influence their opdo politics their olf politics. They are on a mission.

That's true ganacsi and isu socod lama diidin. Business and trade is open both in Somalia and Somaliland. The dispute is only political And politicians from Somalia can't visit Somaliland and politicians from Somaliland can't visit Somalia.

Every body knows sanaag is a Somaliland region some irrational unionist claim that sanaag is indeed part of the pirate enclave of Somalia salaax party politics baa qaaday and is still saddend ciiro lost the November elections. Had ciiro won He would beat his chest west burco rulez buu odhan laha.mma is not a bad man but he is koonfurian chauvinist who most of the time believes in pirate narrative.or that somaliland can be divided along sub clan lines in order to revive his beloved cancerous union which was dissolved in 1991. Allot of people it itches them why doesn't Somaliland need Somalia dhibku wataas tallaaboi.

Lool@ tallaabo oodweyne doesn't like reer baydhabo.but on a serious note I have seen rra communities in hargeysa they are the least hateful towards Somaliland cause. I think we should welcome Sharif sakin. And forge ties with rra community. They are far better than the demolition crew of Mogadishu unukaleh and habargangster from guriceel. And better than the pirates from garowe. And the afweyne remnants from gedo. And the afweyne remnants from gedo are also In conflict with reer baydhabo lets welcome reer bay and bakool they are far better than the gallas.

Ethiopia collapses or unifying it's not in our hands or in your hands galbeedi.We have never needed Meles zenawi to do anything for us. We defeated general afweyne declared the cancerous union null and void and we establish ties with all neighbouring countries except the failed state of Somalia. Somaliland doesnt need any country in the horn we stand on our own 2 feeds nor do we need Ethiopians and Kenyans to protect our fragile state. Nor do we need the savage gallas who want to invade Somali territories. We will push those gallas back to Nazareth and jimma.and Addis Ababa. Gallas are the weakest ethnic group in Ethiopia and They will remain that way.

They will dig the oil onlf is a dead organisation they cant carry out a terrorist attack like back in 2007. No one can oppose the digging this time.

South Sudan was geopolitically very good because the republicans supported it's break up because bashiir was a wanted criminal. The west backed south Sudan. Also the USA wanted the Chinese out of te Sudan. The USA doesn't really care much for somaliland vs Somalia. Because all it wants is the that the koonfurians don't harm the security of Kenya and Ethiopia. Its very indifferent whether Somaliland is recognised or not. We saw jendeiye Fraser visit of Somaliland in 2008. This might change since Somaliland openly backs the e Emirates and Saudi war against Yemeni houthis . We are also building a military base in berbera. This might change if we play our cards right . The koonfurians are pro qatar and turkey which are ikwaani Muslim brotherhood. So we are on differenr sides when it comes to the geopolitical rift between the regional powers of the middle east. We are moving closely 10 years ago we had zero relations with the Arab world And they were very hostile towards our struggle. Now this has changed Kuwait abudhabi and riyad alll have close ties with Somaliland now so we are moving forward

Amhara oromo tigray are the same non is the friend of Somalis just because they feud with.each other it doesn't mean theft are friend with somalis. There are oromo who are.more Abyssinian than amhara. You have the raya azebo oromos who are oromos who speak tigrinya. In the north..most Somalia think oromo are the few boranes and afranqallo near us. Called are a complex super large ethnic group divided along cultural and religious lines. Abdi ileey might be a very bad guy according to Somali standards. But the gallas fear him because he puts them.in their place. He punishes these invaders

Observer you are speaking from a general point of view. But the fact is Somalis are deeply divided deeply fractured along tribal lines different interest even in kilinka shanaaad the shinile clans have different interest than the hawd and reserve area. Onlf has different goals and aspirations than abdi ileey and his liyuuu militia. Even og clans are deeply divided along subclanish lines. Abdi ileey is playing the unifying factor. As for oromo amhara tigray and gurage you can't face them because you have no common policy towards Ethiopia. Galbeedi believes gallas can be his allies gallas are savages they will purge you and then cry they are victim's. I would trust the gallas if I was you.

Somaliland did their homework the recogntion of Somaliland president daahir rayaale kahin traveled the whole African continent met a dozen presidents from Africa Nigeria Ghana Senegal Kenya Tanzania and the Somaliland case was filed into the Africanunion Egypt and Sudan opposed Somaliland president to adress The African union summit in accra Ghana 2007. Purely because of politics they threatend to leave the African union if Somaliland is given a platform to adress it case.. no county in Europe ever said that Somaliland has no case for diplomatic recognition. The Europeans even proposed talks between somaliland and the failed state of Somalia. But these talks collapsed in 2015. Because the koonfurians were not sincere. Somaliland today has made gradual steps it secured one of the biggest investment deals in 27 year's. The Arabs have now stake in Somaliland which means other international companies will follow. Somaliland is moving fast while Somalia is still fighting jihadist and 30.pop african union troops protect the week and fragile govt the past 14 years. Since im

The garaad clan have rejected the pirate's why did they form khatumo both leaders of khatumo and ssc are in hargeysa. The garaad clan have rejected garowe clan enclave and they are the one on the core front closing down the borders

Since imbagati nothing much has changed in Somalia

The same party is still in power eprdf gallas claim Somali territories and they need to be pushed back. Opdo is a ethnic movement. Oromo has little incomen with Somalis abiye Ahmed is half amhara his wife is amhara and he works for a tigrian organization. He might empower his ethnic group but he cares little for Somalis in Ethiopia.

Ileey is doing a good job to.keep these galla invaders in check. Let him further karbaash them. Ileey is not the best of choices when running an administration. But he needs to keep the invaders at bay

Maakhiri saaxib I have no.love for gabre a mass murderer but I also have no love for.this jawar a man who encite hatred don't take his victim mentally serious he is on a mission as observer pointed out.

People in Mogadishu support terrorism they will protect their own criminals jihadist in the name of qabiil. The looters and anarchist in Mogadishu are the reason the city is in ruins and that there were international jihadists roaming the city for to long insecurity in Mogadishu is because of anarchistic jihadistic behaviour of the koonfurians in particular reer mogadishu .You can't blame hargeysa or gabre or baydhabo. If you sincire execute Hassan daahir aweys in Mogadishu you will not, you will protect him in the name of qabil.

Ifiya are you a galla tribal nationalist with expansonist agenda into the somali kilil. Or are you a pirate related to the savage gallas.

Well we haven't heard of the admiral The onlf chairperson mr cismaan. Yes asmara used to back him but not with much just for propaganda use media coverage I don't believe the Eritrean govt really believes in the disintegration of Ethiopia. But I believe onlf as an active rebel movement is dying since ileey. I have couple of relatives from dhagaxbuur and fiiq and we discuss politics. They saying inaa ileey is winning the hearts and minds of beesha the majority of beesha has given up on a war with Ethiopia.

Eritreans finally making peace with their tigrian cousins after a long bloody border war a long stance of quarries proxy wars. Sanca axis against asmara orchestrated by the late Meles zenawi. The Algiers agreement to be honered Eritreans and the pfdj and eprdf signing new agreements possible port business. Eritreans being allowed to live back in Addis Ababa. Mostly deported Eritreans . This looks very promising ofcourse a common strategy against the houthi rebels led by the Emirates and Saudis. The Eritreans and Ethiopian on the same page on the gerd even and in the Yemeni war. Eritrea to rejoin igad even. And perhaps afeweki might support the fragile western backed govt of Mogadishu. Since Ethiopia supports that govt for years Eritrea opposed Ethiopias hand in Somalia affairs may be that will change to for the better in the future.

Who takes this clown olf remnant tribalist serious. All he can do is make silly comments and statements in the USA

Abdi ileey wont be fired he has a special agreement with the TPLF elites. The gallas will be told to sit back.
