Here you can read an article on the hidden Agendas of the Tigre regime of Ethiopia for Somali Republic.One of the reasons the Somalis have been divided in sub-clan mini Clan so- called States is to recolonize them and take their land.This project of populating the Somali regions is going on also in the region-state of Puntland.In the new Federal constitution those puppet leaders of Ethiopia have put two articles now amended which were saying that everybody who resides in Somalia for at least 5 years will be recognized as Somali citizen.The other one also amended was the borders of Somalia both maritime and territorial must be delineated only with the approval of neighboring states.That smacked of recolonization of Ethiopia /IGAD.They have been both been amended.This plan of bringing Oromos and Amhara communities in the regions of Somalia is part of those plans.In the meantime the Somali-people-citizens are busy claiming or fighting about the rights of every clan for self-determination of having its own mini-clan-enclave State.We must came to recognize the reality of the region and came to understand that the right of self-determination is only for peoples and not Clans and Somalis are one People which are made of different clans.. Secondly if we continue on this political mess of subdividing us our beloved Land will be taken over.Wait and see.
Why Somali Republic is a "Perpetual Failed State" for the last 30 years?In this blog I try to answer to that question and in particular of the failure of Somali politics.How Clan Elites have been used by Regional powers and the Somali Salafist Movement and the end game plan to make Somali Republic Clan Enclaves.Who controls Somali economy and political control of Clans in Clan Enclaves.

Comments & Analysis on Somalia.(2013)
In this blog i will rewrite comments and analysis i made on news of the visit of the Somali President in Sudan and a so-called agreement he made with Sudan.The other item is my rebuttal on an article by Mr.Ulusso on Somali issues.
I have a great consideration for the political skills of Mr.Hassan Sheik
the Somali President but this 'would' be agreement that the government
of Sudan will train Somali security forces and Police force its a"total'
political and administrative mistake which i am still hoping is like
those agreements that are ' only" on papers. Sudan is a "quasi-failed
State which its President is in the list of the International Criminal
court ,run by a corrupt elites who uses Islam as a political slogan but
in reality is a dictatorship of a Military man with his
own-tribe-groups.In other words Sudan have a lot of problems which
they cannot solve by themselves.How a quasi-failed state can help
another failed state like Somalia.? Sudan have been part of those States
which were part of the making of the Somali problem by being allied
with Al-Ittixad political movement and in the same time close ally to
Ethiopia.I suspect the President have been manipulated by
his security advisers and his chief intelligence to believe Sudan is
the best bet for the training of Somali Security services( its the place
where the security Chief was trained).The president forgets that
Somalia needs a capable force which is not linked to any political group
and servant of the people-citizens and the Somali Nation.If Sudan
trains our forces they will be run by Al-ittixad business cartels which
is the softer/smarter version of the Al-ittixad/Al-Shabaab political
movement. Secondly who is going to pay for it? Sudan or another state
which is allied to this Somali political group? Now the Police is
trained by the Ugandans which is not a front line state like
Ethiopia,Kenya,Djibouti,and have contribution from other African States
and paid by the U.S and E.U via U.N .Personally i believe the U.N or the
European Union/U.S must pay for the Police Training and they must
undertake that task together with the current training by the
Ugandans.We need sophisticated training which takes in consideration the
needs of the modern world and gives us a Police force and Security
services who are not working for one group of the political spectrum and
highly respects the Political and civil rights of the Somali
citizenry..Sudan police Force is a police force which commits human
right abuses on daily basis because it is working for a dictatorial
regime.We need to export/and train our forces with that model for
(Somalia)? I do not think so and the President Hassan is wrong if he
accepts that model and the suggestions of his security chief and his
allies the Al-Ittixad- business cartels.Wait and see.

This
writing of Mr. Ulusso historically is right and all who follow Somali
history will accept it as accurate.But he "misses the point" that Somali
problems have been made "specially" by Al-Ittixad political movement
which its latest incarnations are Al-Ittixad Business Cartels /
Al-Shabaab and the archenemy of the Somalis for centuries the Ethiopians
and in latter years by the Tigre regime of Ethiopia.Clans and sub-clans
have all the time been used by this groups to destroy Somalia and bring
their Agendas to rule over the Somalis.There have been alliances
between this two groups some times made by the warlords but thew were in
competition other times.In other words Somali people-citizens are fed
with the lie that their Clans hate each other and are in competition to
destroy each other.Instead the Ethiopians from the 80" have used the
Clan politics in the so-called opposition to divide the Somalis and from
1991 have made a warlord for every Clan or sub-clan
to control the Somali clans.Chaos,continuous warfare and destruction of
every institutions were the Agendas of the Al-Ittixad political
movement and the Ethiopians.I was in Mogadishu when the Al-Ittixad
political movement and the Ethiopians were United in the fight against
the Americans in 1992-1993.The Ethiopians knew the Warlords they were
supporting with arms and political patronage were allied secretly with
Al-ittixad political movement.Still those political groups are in
control of the economies and political spheres of the Somali regions and
the Somali federal government.For this two groups a strong and federal
government is a Failure.They need a confederate state organized in
Mini-clan based regions, ,semi-failed state in Somalia.Please read my

"The Arab/Muslim world must save Somalia."
Somalia
has had a real year of "Change" with the election of the new
parliament and the Election of a new President and Prime
Minister/Government.Its maybe the first time after the Presidency of
Abdullahi Yusuf A SOMALI Government who stands for the Somali
National/Public interest is in power.A government I hope which will
never again play "second fiddle" to the whims and Agendas of the
hegemonic power of the Tigre regime of Ethiopia.A government which
believes in the Rule of law and the human rights of its people-citizens
regardless of which clan they are from.A government which is against the
" Balkanization" of the Somali Republic in mini-Clan-enclaves run by
Puppet leaders allied to Ethiopia.There is still the scourge of
Al-Shabaab and its semi- close ally Al-ittixad business
cartels,Organized Crimes in every aspect of trade,Drug-trafficking
groups which have a deal with Ethiopia in the subdivision of Somalia and
control the economies of Somaliland,Puntland,South
central regions all part of the Somali Republic.But the most dangerous aspect which will need change
is the "minds and hearts" of the Somalis which have been made to think
as Clan-based community and not any more as One Somali community. The
other challenging factor will be how to reconcile,bring together the
two factions of our religion Islam in Somalia. Nobody talks about it as
it does not exist this "explosive" division. Today Somalis pray in
different Mosques in Eastleigh and most parts of Somalia.There is a ' cold
war" between the Ahlu- Sunna-Waljameca( Sufi-Islam) and the Wahhabi
type of Islam which have almost become dominant from the 90". They both
are in different spectrum's of the political divide in Somalia and some
years ago there were an all out war. Still now the Ethiopians are
arming Somalis(in a clan based strategy) in the Central regions in the name of Sufi- Islam but
only for their hegemonic agenda to control and subdivide even in religious terms Somalia.I hope the new
government will take up this issue with the help of the Arab/Muslim
countries.Another important issue for the new year will be how the
Ethiopian government will decide to have a relation with this Somali
assertive government who represent the Somali National Interest.They
will accept it or as usual will fight to the end?I wish happy new year
for all Somalis suffering under hunger,civil wars,in-justice and living
in those regions under the hegemony of the Ethiopian and Al-shabaab
armada in this moment.Happy New year to all mankind.Wait and see.

The Somali-Kenyan dispute on Jubbaland maybe solved.
The last three days may well augur well for the Somalis of the Somali Republic but it looks as usual the Tigre regime of Ethiopia have other ideas. Let me start that the Somali refugees and business community(from Somalia) who are one of the richest groups in Kenya had a very troublesome last three weeks.There were acts of terrorism in Eastleigh and the Kenya government fed up with that declared that Somali refugees must be repatriated without any agreement with the UNHCR.The arrival of the President of the Somali federal Republic Mr. Hassan Sheik and the subsequent rapprochement between the two countries( read the following article) have brought back the Somalis from an economic crisis and emigration/refugee crisis which was engulfing the mind and activities of the Somalis.The two government have decided to collaborate on various issues including the issues of refugees and other pressing issues like the stay of the Kenyan Armies in Somalia and the fight against Al-Shabaab etc.The most important is the issues of Kismayo ( Lower region) and I believe the Kenyans have came to realize the policies of IGAD and Ethiopia were counter-productive in the long run for the stability,peace and development of the region as a whole. Kenya is going to have its "own input" in the border region of Jubbaland but not as the Ethiopians wonted to have a vassal state in the Jubbaland region of Somalia.I hope things went as I am thinking and would like.The President of Somalia has thanked the Government of Kenya for their assistance and giving the Somalis the opportunity to prosper as business community in Kenya. The other issues I would write are about the new "game plan" of the Tigre Regime of Ethiopia and how I see the "the entourage" and some of the things the President has said here in Nairobi at a Lunch for the Business and Somali Elites here in Nairobi.
The president is a "good"person well mannered and with a clear vision for the future of the Somali Republic and how the peoples of the region and government interact.He already put in writings his ideas which are the "guiding' principles" of the policies of his government.But the problem in Somalia there is a gap between what he is saying and wants to achieve and the overall architecture of the institutions of the State in Somalia and the personnel heading them.I mean those people of his "entourage" who call themselves the security apparatus of the Somali Republic.First they do not have any military training and secondly they have been nominated by the former president by being as him trained in Sudan and good friends of Ethiopia. The are plenty of Somali officers which had good training at Siad Barre era governments which can do this jobs and are not tainted with human rights abuses.The other group of the entourage is what I call the "Ceel Macaan" Al-Ittixad Business cartels( Ceel Macaan is a port in north Mogadishu which was used by this groups for almost 20 years instead of the Mogadishu port).This group is mostly concerned of having the monopoly of the economy and control of the political system.They were allied with the I.C.U and together with the former president they became allied with the Ethiopians in 2009.From that time they also expanded their control on the political spheres and in the four years of the two Sheriffs reign( former president and former speaker) become the most powerful in the Somali elites.They have also links with the Chinese government and business community and they would like to control the Somali national resources like Oil and Gas for their own benefit.They are still in power and the president must find a method to tell them that the government is a product of the Will of the people and their individual and Wahabist-Salafist agendas cannot control the Somali national resources or in general the Somali Nation-hood or the National interest of the Somali Federal Republic.He must find the strategy to tell this business conglomerates who are against anything public that if they wont to survive and be part of the economic structure of the country they must change their agendas and be just one group of the overall economic and political spheres not the only one.Secondly they cannot have foreign policies which are against the Somali national interests.Period. The other thing is as usual they offer money to any government which came to power and in that way corrupt the system and have undue influence in the making and application of economic policies.This groups have never paid taxes of any type to any Somali government and by paying so- called charitable huge amounts of money to the government they avoid to have any tax or accountable system to know their finances and "have a "not failed state" which is part of the economic system.The other big story is the Ethiopians having failed in the diplomatic spheres against the Somali government when it came to the Sovereignty to administer the regions of Somalia they have reverted to the Old system of dividing the Somali puppet leaders.The former speaker of the parliament who every body knows is pro-Iranian,China-man and best puppet leader of Ethiopia is in this days with a group of so-called parliamentarian in Addis-Abeba to plan with the Ethiopians how to stop the plans of the new President and bring back the Old Agenda of sub-dividing the Somali Republic in vassal states.I think unless the West and the Islamic,Arab world tells Ethiopia that their meddling in the internal affairs of Somalia and treating Somalia their own backyard to be colonized I believe Somalis will never have peace and Stability and Al-Shabaab fight will be endagered.Wait and see.
