This is a funny one, a Pro-TPLF folks

According to Pro-Farmajo crew

And supposedly, Somalia is getting drones. How true that is is questionable, but Turkey has been training Somali pilots and drone operators.

Sources are saying 6,000 of these boys are coming back. Federal and State governments met to get ready for the post-AMISOM stage

According to AAShakur

Or are going to be used by Farmajo, the story of Somali soldiers in Eritrea.

Dec 8

Staying with the message, security continues to deteriorate .

They have to sell it as such considering people are going hungry and young people are asked to sacrifice themselves. For the time being, it is an easy sell as Abiy and Amhara extremists are using genocidal language.

TPLF leadership is selling the war as an existential event.

Video has sub-titles. His emphasis on Amhara is telling.

Arafat, I hope you are right. This will spare the region a great deal of misery.

Gentlemen, The opposition was played. They only came to realize this when they got screwed over. They were clapping and congratulating the outrageously corrupt Seneta selection. Now that they are losing MPs in the same corrupt manner, is it all of sudden corrupt? In the eyes of the Somali public and IC, Farmajo handed the election process to Rooble who passed it on to the regional leaders. And those regions told the opposition f u.

I don't subscribe to that, but I am saying there is no other way of holding Ethiopia together. I don't see a scenario that accommodates different linguistic groups who are demanding greater autonomy and diverse political parties with diverging interests. PP will simply replace EPRDF should Abiy and his Amhara base succeed in subduing Oromos and Tigrians,

We tend to blow things out of proportion. Fahad is no more powerful than anyone else. He is more competent and people seem to confuse competence for power. More importantly, unlike 'laandheer' politicians, the man depends on his skills to sedate what passes for politicians in Somalia. And he is no more destructive than 'babdaado" qaran, Deni, and Madobe. I assure if HSM and Sharif had this man on their side, they will be singing a different tune.

Duufaan, Galbeedi, In the end, battles might be won and lost, but the war will persist in one form or another. Ethiopia is a country of contradictions that can't be reconciled organically. It will always require some force to hold it together. Duufaan, When you euphoria dies down, and let's assume Abiy wins. If he is again faced with the same problems, this time it will be a well armed Amhara itching to reimpose their hegemony.

Galbeedi, They have a month to make something happen, otherwise, they would have to retreat to Tigray and hope the world would pressure Abiy not to enter Tigray. If Abiy does win this war, I assure you it will go to his head. Ethiopia always needs an emperor who eventually gets deposed.

Arafaat, One thing is sure the likes of Afars didn't die so Abiy can sit on Melenik's throne. Amharas and Tigrians are between calaacal and faan depending he has the upper hand on that. Amharas are jubilant and speaking of marching to Mekelle.
