Jacaylbaro Posted April 22, 2009 "The government is not doing enough," Ali said. "The Puntland government has done nothing on piracy and they have sat on their laurels. And I don't think they are prepared to do anything about that due to some cultural barriers and presumably clannish links. There is also the issue of the federal government or what is also called the unity government. These guys in Mogadishu have no viable military power to challenge the pirates who are on the coast of Somalia," Ali said. "So, what you need is a system whereby you can accommodate the current Somali government, but they should not be given everything in terms of guns and money because like in Puntland, if you give them weapons or arms then they may use it for goal scoring against other enclaves; like they may fight against Somaliland," he said. "If they are not checked now, international terror gangs may infiltrate into them and then you might have the whole area becoming more sophisticated. And it could be difficult to contain it because we are talking about hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of sea and it is very difficult to control and monitor these areas," he said.

Emperor Posted April 22, 2009 Whether he's secessionist or not, not matters adeer, he made it clear in his statement that any money given to Puntland will mean an attack against Somaliland.. go re-read the quote above... Unlike others I only concentrate on the content of what is posted rather than the writer of the article... I don't care who wrote it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacaylbaro Posted April 22, 2009 Of course you do ,,, and you're only saying this when you realized he is not even Somali. about the content, yes that is one of issues looked at during the different discussions. Sorry to disappoint you. The world wants to eliminate piracy not to increase. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
