NASSIR Posted July 26, 2010 Most of the news content from private sites are indeed difficult to verify or vouch for its veracity be they SPR, HorseedMedia, GalgalaNews or AllPuntland, (passions are very high) What is really true of these events is that the man is local, supported by his clan over the administration of their resources and peace. Someone with substantial authority in Bosaaso and environs. But that fact had seemed to challenge the authority of Puntland in its goal to monopolize voilence not through political legitimacy but through coercion, intimidation and outright lies about the intentions of its opposition. Puntland has never been under attack. The people of Galgala of Bari region and by extension of Sanaag made significant contribution to the PL's competitive position and progress. They harbor no ill designs to commence hostility or destroy its fragile peace and infrastructure nor exacerpate the division. It is their country that Puntland declared unjust war to usurp power under the false pretext of "terrorism" in order to subjugate its inhabitants. This is how immature PL politically has been in using the "terrorism" against an indigineous group. The correct term is insurgency just like Americans employed in Iraq or as SL used against the people of "SSC". Atom and his militia is an indigenous group. You can't call them "terrorists" hiding in caves and jungles. I am being neutral with the whole fiasco, for my goal is to cut short the miscalculation of short-sighted political leaders in leading a State that is at war with its people. PL was established based on the consent of its inhabitants. If the elders from this region asked the PL authority to investigate the allegations and come up with some solution that should prevent this war, why has PL ignored and decided to label a whole a region as harbouring "terrorists". How will the indigenous group of this land react to such development. What PL should have done was to win the hearts of the people through developments, promotion of human rights, etc, not through land expansion and empowering one group at the expense of the overall goal of the state. That is called pathology engaging in behavior against some ideal policy. Gen. Ilka-Jir has yet to come forward and speak. His silence is disingenous at best and dangerous at worst. As an interior Minister, he should have come to the media, esp the local ones or the BBC--a neautral one, and explain to his community what is truly at stake. Whether he agrees with his billigerent Boss about allegations and what actions are in store to resolve the issue as opposed to resorting to violence and bloodshed, Or whether he is cooking something like the allegations by the UN that he took some of the spoils of the Pirate Money, WE DO NOT KNOW!!!

They should peacefully head home and let Somalia be. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
