Farmaajo do you see this? Run fast to Ankara..Last chance for Horn

[Old_Observer]

The Turkish have now officially and openly publicly gone at "war" with the left over of European empires. Not in the Horn of Africa. Its in the Sahel. The Spanish, Portuegese, British and Italians have already made choice, including America. The choice is accomodation with Turkish.

France is the only one resisting. It will be ignominiously defeated. Erdogan will make a "breakfast" of Macron.

Horn of Africa, the empty pride part of the world will even be much less important.

Faarmajo: Don't listen to Egyptian deceptive talk, UAE and its foot soldiers threat and pet talk, dive for it. Qatar if assured of success will finance and invest, Turkish will do the rest from goat herding veterinary to rocket science.

No, Soomaaliya should remain a dhex dhexaad dowlad. Neutrality suits us Soomaalis well when it comes to intra-Muslim conflicts.

The only conflict we will never be neutral is when it comes to Falastiin and her struggles for freedom and liberty.

Erdogan was just in West Africa. Look what happened:

France announced Sunday plans to deploy an additional 600 troops in West Africa.

In a statement, French Defense Minister Florence Parly said most of the reinforcements would be deployed on the borders between Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger.

"The president has taken the decision to increase the number of troops deployed in the Sahel-Saharan strip to about 5,100 soldiers, an increase of 600 soldiers," she said.

"The reinforcements should allow us to increase the pressure against the ISS [Deash in the Greater Sahara] terrorist organization acting on behalf of Daesh. We will leave no space for those who want to destabilize the Sahel."

Parly said Chad was expected to soon deploy an additional battalion to the G5 Sahel joint force in the border region.

France currently maintains a 4,500-strong military force throughout West and Central Africa.

Militants have launched repeated attacks against local troops in Mali and Niger that have extended into Burkina Faso.

French President Emmanuel Macron recently met with the leaders of Mali, Burkina Faso, Chad, Niger and Mauritania to discuss security issues at a summit in Pau, France.

The summit agreed on a new approach to unite forces in a "Coalition for the Sahel" to fight insurgents in the Sahel region. In a joint declaration, they reaffirmed their "determination to fight together against the terrorist groups."

The Sahel region in West Africa is home to many terrorist groups, including al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) and Daesh/ISIS.

At the very least your stance is of principle as well as what you think is feasible and possible at this time.

That is to be respected, although I do not think one can stay neutral between Gulf and Turkish at this time, since the conflict is now in the open from Gulf to Libya and Sahel.
