Very genuine questions. The B.S. mountain built by UN and sustained by foreigners are on their last legs.

So Somaliland want to stop brain drain? It is common sense, It is insurance as you can get killed anyday? Every public servant in Hargaisa is looking for a job in Mogadishu.

2. Why are salaries in Mogadishu so high?

One of the ironies of Somalia is that salaries of its bureaucracy are exponentially higher, but services and efficiency so much lower than those of Somaliland, the breakaway northern region of Somalia which operates independently. If Somaliland authorities can do a better job with less, why can’t Somalia?

[Dhagax-Tuur]

The fact that this fellow is a major league A**hole is clearly evident in the nature of the questions he's asking.  Particularly,  these ones:

7. Why ask the International Court of Justice to mediate Kenya dispute and then not wait for decision?
The Somali government has asked the International Court of Justice to mediate a maritime border dispute with Kenya, and yet then went ahead with a secret auction of gas exploration rights in the disputed zone. Don’t you undercut the legitimacy of the process when you initiate it and then ignore it? Is it wise to antagonize Kenya when Somalia has relied on Kenyan troops for security for much of the past decade?

That has nothing to do with anything.  The disputed territory wasn't part of the auctioned bits. So fck off, Rubin. 

 

8. Why is Somalia bothering with the Israel-Palestine dispute?
In recent weeks, Somalia has fired Abdullahi Dool, a foreign ministry official who has said that enmity toward Israel is not in Somalia’s interest. Could you explain the firing and why you believe it is in Somalia’s interest? Likewise, could you explain the recall of Faduma Abdullahi Mohamud, Somalia’s ambassador to Switzerland, after she abstained on a U.N. resolution condemning Israel? Are reports that the recall happened after a phone call between Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Somali Foreign Minister Ahmed Isse Awad true? Aren’t Omar and Awad from the same subclan, and haven’t they previously collaborated on policy issues?

 

Being a Muslim nation and all that.  So again,  fck off, Rubin. 

9. Do you believe that Turkey is a stabilizing force for Somalia?
On one hand, Turkey has invested heavily in Somalia and you are using Turkey to mediate Somalia’s dispute with Somaliland. But on the other hand, Turkey has built a military base in Mogadishu and its paramilitary SADAT appears to be offering training and assistance to Islamist extremists inside Somalia. Under such circumstances, and especially reports of Turkish ties to al Shabab, is Turkey really a stabilizing force for Somalia? Given the corruption inherent in both Somalia and in Turkey, would you be willing to publicize the terms of the deal and transparently account for all funding that has resulted from the airport management and base lease deals?

Now, this tells you his effing intention more than anything else.  Tarring Turkey with terror brush and making false accusations,  just cuz current admin in Washington doesn't get on with Ankara. Again, fck off,  Rubin. 

10. Why is reunification with Somaliland a goal?
Somaliland has been de facto independent since 1991 and has thrived while the rest of Somalia has descended into chaos. Why do you expect Somaliland (which, between 1988 and 1991 was subject to a genocide coordinated out of Mogadishu) to ever reunify with the rest of Somalia when Somalia’s own house is not in order? How do any parliamentarians in Mogadishu “represent” Somaliland when they were not elected in Somaliland and don’t step foot in the region? Wouldn’t a more responsible strategy put the Somaliland issue aside until Somalia has tackled basic issues of reducing corruption and restoring security? If you claim your government is legitimate across all of Somaliland, why do you not provide 30% of the aid you receive, in direct proportion to Somaliland’s population, to the province? Wouldn’t that better win hearts and minds that are necessary if reconciliation is to work?

Simply put, foreign aid is not an entitlement and, as the history of Somalia shows, when offered carelessly, it can do far more harm than good. Perhaps, Prime Minister Khaire should return to Mogadishu with a simple message: Account for aid already offered and demonstrate an ability to improve anything in Somalia before any more funds are given.

To put it plainly,  fck you douche.  Somali affairs has nothing to do with you or Washington.  It would be better if you would cut the so called aid altogether,  once and for all,  but guess you won't because it's a western tool to threaten developing world just like you seen to-do.

The Zionist ku shubo neo-con lobbyist is being exposed of what he is:

The wretched secessionist are paying this ku shubo dude tens of thousands of dollars per month to lobby their failed project. Money from international aid organizations for gobollada Waqooyi. Dowladda dhexe should restrict this aid money iyagee soo martaayee.

I guess the last one, the other neo-con of Cambodian-American descent couldn't achieve that in last ten years. Peter Pham? Remember him? Wuu iska samray kaas ama dreamers ayaa ka quustay.
