AbdillahiSamatar Posted July 3, 2021 Somalis should pour their efforts into changing the current insecurity and terror within its own borders. No need to talk about Ethiopia or Kenya. Fix Somalia as a country first before we engage in international disputes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

galbeedi Posted July 4, 2021 Man, the western media have totally been mesmerised by the TPLF. Even in the alternative media, I have seen many false and propaganda have been thrown around. Some even suggest that the Tigray to be the foundation of Ethiopia. Anyway, after looking these reports and considering the major victory of the Tigray , things will not be the same. This is the second defeat of Amhara inspired government defeated by the TPLF for the last thirty years, the other one being the Derg of Mengistu in 1991. The TPLF and Tigray could be the real Kurdistan many nations including USA and Israel were looking for many years. They are only 50 km away from the Red sea and could easily get an access if America and other help them. The new emerging Ethiopia is undesirable for many nations. The surprising thing is none of the Tigray leadership have raised the issue of separation so far. If Somalia puts its house in order , we would be the ones choosing the next leader.We must built strong relationship with the Oromo nation regardless of their faith whether Christian or Muslim and create new trade routes.From Hararghe, Bale, and Arsi and all the way to Hadamo, we strong 30 million people who need access to sea and trade. We must always insist that in order to have a lasting peace, the legitimate rulers of Ethiopia should be the Oromo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is very interesting case, we Somalis must never forget what TPLF done to our people, how they used and divided. SOMALIDA HADA waxba iskuma hayaan, nothing uniting pple is there, too fragmented,,u need glue, common goal, common enemies, very clean gov and no corruption, we need new fire to start somali nationalism., and definitely will not come from current form of governments It is very interesting for how small community, United in common goal, can reach. This is very similar to Somalis in early 1970s. We were outnumbered by Ethiopia and Kenya, and yet we were one of strongest in Africa Check Siyad Barre and Mengistu meeting in Yemen, Mengistu was very scared and was willing to gave up some of Somali galbeed.

Great people and nations put things in prospective and move on to the future. Our past quarrels are minor compared to the rest of the world. Yet, the dump tribes keep repeating the same mistakes and refuse to look to the future. Look at us today, other than Al-shabaab our main issue is just greed and hungry tribes trying to make few dollars for the expenses of everyone. AS I said , it is time to demand things from the empire of rags that is in trouble. Get rid of Ethiopian and Kenyan troops and fix the evil town called Mogadishu and its underworld.

maakhiri1 Posted July 6, 2021 Source, say, majority surrender without a fight, there is only one route for supply line, the place is, rough, n mountainous, and all TPLF did is cut supply line, and the army surrendered after 3 days, without food and water. Also, majority of high ranking officers, did not want to be captured, committed suicide. Alot of crazy stories coming out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
