Dhaqaale Posted February 16, 2020 oh... there seems to be an element of truth to this. I was under the impression Somaliland had outright said no but it seems there is talk behind the scenes within Somaliland political circles!  Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The mountain of lies they have built the myth of the civil war would come crashing down. I suspect Bihi will orchestrate anti-Farmaajo demonstrations in Hargeisa. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who knows what could happen if Farmaajo lands there. There could tens of thousands of people with " Callemo qoyan" in Hargeisa which will destroy the mythology of the last 30 years. Biixi is willing but those who built the myth like Boobe Yusuf will be out in force. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old_Observer Posted February 16, 2020 maakhiri1, The majority of the population in Somaliland is under 40 years old. 10% of this has seen civil war. 90% of this knows only Somaliland as country as region as anything. Look at Taiwan, Austria, Eritrea. Most Taiwanese cannot see other than Taiwan, even when the whole world including US tells them they are part of one China legally. No international recognition, no UN seat or membership. Sudan is already becoming that way South and North. What seems to be so easy for having one Ethnic, one faith, one culture can be most difficult since conflict among the same people or relatives or siblings is more bitter than among strangers.

Xaaji Xunjuf Posted February 17, 2020 Old observer Somalia and Somaliland were never one country. Before 1960 they have been separated for over 3 decades if we include the 1980s war. Farmaajo cannot visit Somaliland that's just a dream. Abiye thinks he can solve somaliland and Somalia conflict he cannot. And deep down he knows this. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
