Zero Sum Game for the Oil and Gas of Jubbaland.

The last time I wrote in my blog directly not reusing  comments I think it was in February.. Usually I analyzed  Somali issues whenever they become hot and bent on being.almost divisive These days we are on that period which I would call the time of Zero Sum Game. First of all let me re-explain that the conflict in Somalia started from 1991 and planned from the 80" by the Ittixad Political movement and the two regimes of Ethiopia aided by regional states   was  first to destroy Somalia and later to take its Oil and Gas by making a new Sovereign States on the Somali Republic territory  who can Claim new political rights and economic rights. Please  read my blogs called "The alliance between the Al- Ittixad Business cartels and Ethiopia" and others looking at the historical perspective of the Somali issues.
        The last week the Somali PM went to Kismayo/Jubbaland region of Somalia where Militia-Clans groups trained by Ethiopia/Kenya and allied to Ethiopia/IGAD are bent to self-proclaim themselves the new rulers of the regions outside the Rule of the Somali Government.In-other words to proclaim sovereign themselves under the guise of  Autonomy but for a future Confederation of Somali states.The PM  who represented the Somali federal government told them  what they are doing is not legitimate and only the government under the new Constitution  could only make new  administrations for the Regions. The Warlords--Salafist-Clans militia who are allied with Ethiopia/Kenya are bent to follow the Ethiopia-IGAD agenda to the extremes: a New State- Regions called Jubbaland   which is vassal to Ethiopia and Kenya and have the "powers" to sell the Oil and Gas of the Regions.The PM went also this week to Gedo region and appointed a regional governor  to out- maneuver the Agenda of the Ethiopia-IGAD group..Gedo is the main Region of Jubbaland.. In Somalia in this days we have two political projects going on : One made by the EthiopiaIGAD group to have Somalia subdivided in Confederate States so to have at least five new Sovereign States under the Hegemony of Ethiopia and IGAD .The other political  project is by the Somali Government plans to have a devolved powers structure were the regions controls some of the resources and have their regional powers but in One Somali State called the Somali federal government.. This two different projects are in a collusion all the time because this new Somali government would like to assert its sovereign powers while Ethiopia-IGAD would like Somali subdivided in vassal states under their Hegemony.This the regional side of the story which have  also its  global connotations with the China,Russia ,Iran plus some western states like France and Italy siding with IGAD-Ethiopia..On the other side is the Arab countries,Turkey U.S and U.K all siding with the Somali government legitimate right to Rule its territory and people-citizens..Somali people- citizens have been divided in Clans fighting each other by Ethiopia-IGAD and for the Somalis the issues have been clouded by this Clan-Chauvinism.I hope the new Kenyan government will came to understand the real problems and will give the Somali government the opportunity and right to Rule its own territory and people-citizens.Wait and see.
