Cowke Posted April 18, 2010 I personally think if Puntland establishes a deal with the onlf it can be of mutual benefit for both the clans. The animosity really is of no favor to us nor to them!!! If puntland tells the onlf drop their arms sign a ceasefire with addis ababa and in return ask for important posts within the ethiopia parliament along with parliamentary seats and also be "Special Representative of Ethiopia In Relations To Somalia" we can manipulate this excellent strategical tie and get the wakiil to always give support to a puntlander to be president of somalia and in return we will guarantee that onlf inhabited areas recieve development, progress, etc. We can use the wakiil to always deny usc/snm ppl any hope because after-all we are 1 way or another tied to addis ababa Anyways I don't see why that aint possible other then small fact of wakiil electing a onlf person to be president of somalia but it wouldnt be reasonable to do that because onlf ppl dont warrant such seat considering their not majority clan in somalia. I believe with this strategical tie of having important member within ethiopian politics can give puntlanders the edge over other somalis in establishing our clan as no 1 and the rest just as secondary clans and they cant do anything about it other then fact they switch allies to eritrea and recieve arms/money from them and we all know eritrea reputation in the world aint that great and would be disastrous political move for whatever faction would take that route just look at dahir aweys and his current situation. I think it would be wise move to explore this option in garowe and set up meeting between the onlf and puntland to hold talks, mind you addis ababa won't get to upset we can just tell them that we are discussing ways to have the onlf disarm which is true because that is what we want to achieve and at same time set-up framework of bilateral ties between us and the onlf state so they can always put in their support diplomatically to fellow d-blockers in Somalia!!!!

Jacaylbaro Posted April 18, 2010 We can use the wakiil to always deny usc/snm ppl any hope because after-all we are 1 way or another tied to addis ababa Man, you have never consulted Abdullahi Yusuf on this one ,,,,, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cowke Posted April 18, 2010 Sacad, what you mean hilarious? Sxb the onlf are very small minority in kenya and they got the guddomiyah ku xiggeen of parliament. Imagine how much more they will get in ethiopian political circle??? Not to mention the added posts they will get if they agree to ceasefire they can easily achieve those posts i mentioned above. Mind you ethiopia will need guarantees of course such as that "ethiopia borders ama somali-weyn dream must die" and sure we will accept that and give up on our claims for jabuti, nfd, and ******iya. I see it is of mutual benefit for ethiopia and the onlf and can set up d-block reign forever and ever within the somalia borders and other clans really can't do much because their all lock-down with ethiopia!!! For example if sharif complains he doeesnt like the wakil of somalia politics in ethiopia because of tribal reasons, meles will just say sorry but the wakil of somalia politics is the onlf state and will not be replaced because we agreed to ceasefire and that is alot more important to ethiopia then what shaykh sharif or the usc or snm guys want!!! It really is good idea as far as im concerned and Like i said I think their needs be an all-garowe conference sooner then later to get it happening and set up for the future!!!
