SUB-#CLANS,#OIL and #GAS,#ETHIOPIA -#IGAD-#AMISOM

                          My Hope is UNSOM,International Community  will not follow blindly the wrong policies,strategies of IGAD-AMISOM-ETHIOPIA in the latest fight/campeign against AlShabaab by #AMISOM forces with #ETHIOPIAN #ARMY. Ethiopia and IGAD countries had always a strategies to #subdivide SOMALI Clans and sub-CLANS in those allied to them ( some are even still  ex-AlShabaab members but siding with IGAD) and those who are siding with Al-Shabaab( they are used and manipulated by the their Salafist Clan ELITES). In that way we have  and are  going to have a society- Clan- Communities divided and made enemies for a very long time maybe for another twenty years.Secondly#AlShabaab and #ETHIOPIA would like to have this continuous strive and division to subdivide the Somali CLANS-sub-CLANS for their own strategies("the next strategy of Al-Shabaab is to have Clans-Sub-Clans who are fighting for them" for Clan Re-vindication in URBAN Guerrilla warfare and terrorist Acts ").One of the strategies is to control some of the CLANS and SUB CLANS of those regions were its proven there is #OIL and #GAS thanks to the previous( of the 50" and 60") exploration and rights  of #US #OIL #Companies.The main Agenda of #ETHIOPIA was to subdivide All Somalia in Clan Clan-Enclaves#regional #sovereign States therefore to change Somalia and in that way controlled by Clans closely linked/Allied to their policies.Those companies who had agreement with Somali previous governments will loose their rights with this new sovereign states like #SOMLILND,#PUNTLAND,#HIIRAANLAND,#Central regions Land,Benadir Land,JUBBA regions Land, etc.All are Clans based groupings in which some Clans are"in power" and others have to be segregated therefore they have to join Al-Shabaab to get "Power".The Ethiopian strategy is to control the SOMALI #OIL and #GAS #BASINS all over SOMALIA like the BASIN of #NUGAL,the basin of #AWDAL some  in the #Somaliland regions and  some part of #Puntland.To control the #MUDUG-#GALGADUUD regions #BASIN,the #LOWER #Shabelle Basin and the GEDO-JUBBA regions Basin.This strategy is executed by using Somali Clans-sub clans who are inhabitants of those regions.But in the same time alienate some of the Clans who live there.That is what is already going on in #SOMALILAND,PUNTLAND,HiIIRAN REGIONS,MUDUG, JUBBA regions,Shabeelle Lower and Middle.IF you wont power you side with ETHIOPIA-IGAD or you join AL-Shabbab for CLAN  RE-Vindication..WAIT and see

This picture shows how the religious powers were working with the Somali national government.In other words our religious leaders were for a Somali Nation-Hood and to promote the National interests of The #Somali People--Citizens.Our #Religious#leaders were not working for #Foreign powers like #Ethiopia under the guise of Clan community like the Ahlusunna Waljames of the Central region and they were not employed and used by Non State-Actors like the Salafist /Jihadist of Al-Qaida allied to #AlShabaab.In this picture there is #harmony between the Temporal and Spiritual powers.This must be a lesson for our Leaders of Today be it religious and Political.Also the Somali two main religious groupings the #Salafi and the #Sufi must revisit their Agenda and make and adopt the Somali#National interests as their main guiding #principle.That is the Only way the Somali people-citizens could be saved from #Terrorism/#Jihadism and the #Hegemony and#recolonization of #Ethiopia.Wait and see.

The reasons Behind Al-Shabaab attack at "Villa Somalia" the Presidential compound.(Part 1)

                  On 21/02/2014 was another Dark day for the history of the Somali (Federal) Republic. The terror/Jihadist  Group  #Alshabaab  attacked the presidential compound at “Villa Somalia”  with car bombs and nine fighters armed with Guns at  noon Friday when everybody was readying himself  for the Friday prayers and the President himself was supposed to attend the Mosque  at time Prayers at the Palace. The attack came at two of the entrances of the Compound close to the Mosque at the East side of the compound. The first question is “This was an assassination attempt directed to the President”?  While I was writing this article #Alshabaab spokesman said “It was an operation directed to kill the President”. “Or this was a spectacular attack by the Al-Shabaab“ Amniyat”( the Amniyat is the security and intelligence services who is made of the most prepared/trained and trusted of the Alshabab operatives and cadres and had always direct links with the Salafist Business Cartels  and Organized Crimes/Drug cartels who are closely  allied with the Ethiopian Intelligence) to show their capacity and strength”? “Or this was just part of the Alshabaab strategy of continuous destabilization (they don’t have a strong military presence in Mogadishu”?) to tell the Somalis, International community and some of the Salafist Business Cartels they are very powerful and can strike everybody?   I will try to answer to these questions relating them to the last acts by Al-Shabaab in the whole of Somalia linked to this last attack and especially in South- Central. There was Al-Shabaab Attack on the entrance of Mogadishu airport in which a UN convoy was attacked and the UN representative in Somalia of UNHCR escaped unhurt by almost a whisker. It was on 13 February. But innocent Somalis were killed. After that Al-Shabaab told the biggest Telekom company owned by Salafist Business Cartels “Hormud”, which is one of  the richest  and  one of the largest Conglomerates  in Somalia with Hawilad -Banking ,Real Estate, Telecommunication, Trade interests all over Somalia,  to stop all its Internet-Mobile  connections.( everybody uses mobile connections there are not land line connections) which they acquiesced to that criminal order. Then they also attacked and killed people at the main gate and parking of one of  that same Conglomerate  Hotels, the one Called “Al-Jazeera” close to the airport. The third act I would like to mention is the “assassination” of the Chief of Security-Intelligence of the Ras Kamboni group ruling Kismayo Town -Lower Jubba region in south Somalia. I am taking these last acts because these parts of Somalia-Central and South are the most important for Al-Shabaab for their concentration of population density and National resources plus hosting the biggest Salafist Business Cartels Companies, Organized crimes/Drug Cartels groups and being the political and commercial hubs/ heart of the country like Mogadishu. In Kismayo the Capital of the Jubba regions the port supplies the entire southern regions to include neighboring regions-Sovereign States and its high volume of business (including the illegal one of the export of Charcoal to Dubai the U.A.E) is one of the main sources of income for Al-Shabaab. All Somali ports including Mogadishu, Kismayo, Berbera, and Bosaso are commercially controlled by the Salafist Business cartels/Organized crimes/Drug-Cartels who uses them as entry points of illegal goods like the drug Heroin imported from Afghanistan/Pakistan. (Please read my blog “wardigley.blogspot.com” at the post titled “The criminal motives behind the car bombing in Kismayo of Ahmed Madobe…” and “Who are the business people of Somalia”).

        To understand all this acts and how these are interlinked let me make  a brief historical timeline of the President Hassan Presidency  and a description of the main domestic/Regional actors mainly Ethiopia –IGAD countries . What is their main “strategy” at this time after the formation of the last Council of Ministers and President Hassan “Political Agenda  about Somali Unity in a so- called Federal system vis-à-vis the “Ethiopian GRAND-GAME PLAN OF HAVING SOMALIA subdivided in Mini-Clan Enclaves which will be in a Confederation of SOMALI REGIONAL SOVEREIGN States”?.

        President Hassan was elected and inaugurated in September 2012 by a new parliament were the majority was Elite Clan Puppet Politicians -at least 175-who are closely allied to the ETHIOPIAN-Tigre regime and the big wigs/warlords were from the parliament of 2004 made in Mbaghati, Nairobi, Kenya. The parliament is made of 275 members subdivided in Clan communities from all over Somali (federal) Republic. (Please read my blog titled “For the New PM: Lessons from a recent Past”). The President Hassan said in his Manifesto and agenda that he was for a democracy, Rule of law and a country were ISLAM WAS THE RELIGION OF THE STATE as already stated in our constitution but with the promise to fight the JIHADIST Al-Shabaab group. In his first speech he stood for a United Somalia where the Federal system was a devolved system of governance based in regional administrative authorities. All that was well for the oppressed people- citizens of Somalia.  But this has brought him in a “collusion course” with the Elite Clan Puppet Leaders/Regional puppet  leaders who were following the Agenda of ETHIOPIA and IGAD to subdivide the SOMALI REPUBLIC in CLAN ENCLAVES for the last 23 years and were supported in their game plans now even by the #AMISOM forces. This was the real problems  in 2013 presidential governance of Hassan Sheik . He also came in disagreement with his PM Mr. Shirdoon who was more nationalist than his Ministers who were signing agreements against the “Sovereignty”,"Unity" and "Territorial integrity" of the Somali (federal) Republic. Those agreements with Kenya linked with the so- called maritime “dispute” over the Continental Shelf boundaries and the one on the Air Space with a Somali regional administration called Somaliland. All those agreements were disowned by the Council of Ministers but there were also the Addis Ababa agreement on the transitional administration for the Jubba regions and the so- called Kampala Communiqué who were in some parts an "appeasement" to the Tigre regime of Ethiopia and curtailing our Somali National “sovereignty” to have self rule in the internal affairs of the Somali m (Federal) Republic specially in matters of security.

          In few words during the last six /seven months of his Presidency he has chosen a policy of "compromise" with Ethiopia when it came to matters of security in  what I call “ limited military interference by Ethiopia like AMISOM participation ” but still with the Somali sovereignty and  the “direction  in general”   of the Somali national affairs as he thought in the hands of Somalis. Also by reappointing a new PM Mr. Abdiweli  Sheik Ahmed, who has yet to became still his "own Man " and think about his would be legacy in Somali political history( the last Shirdoon was totally disliked by the Ethiopians and the Salafist members of the Ministers of councils ).  Our President Hassan  has always  though that he was infallible as political thinker  and concentrated all powers in  himself , made a new council of Ministers with the PM and made of Salafist Business Cartels representative members to whom  he was linked politically , Elite Clan puppet politicians closely allied to Ethiopia  and a small number of honest politicians. With this kind of ministerial cabinet President Hassan was thinking he will navigate all waters and compromise with all “politically” interested groups in Somali affairs domestically and regionally. He was “absolutely Naïve” because he did not understand the “Real nature of Somali politics” which was totally controlled by “forces outside” the national interest of the Somali “People-citizens”. That Somali politics was controlled by Salafist Business cartels sitting in the back seat  with  Organized crimes and Ethiopia linked  Elite Clan Puppet Leaders at the front seat.The only group who tried to represent the Somali national interests was put in the oppositions-those I call the Clan Nationalist- and he “accepted’ as members of the cabinet those who represented Organized Crimes/Drug cartels as ministers. The security /Intelligence and Defense two portfolios were given to Salafist and “representatives” of the Ethiopian-Iranian interests in Somali politics.

Why the TIGRE ARMY is Back in SOMALIA?Wait and see.

By bringing back the Ethiopian-Tigre Army inside Somalia (they were already illegally from 2010) with a legal Mandate to Kill and torture Somalis is against the will and the future of the a Somalia which is democratic and has its own self-rule and at peace with neighbors and the World .The Ethiopians has been supported  in coming back I suspect by IGAD countries  and have  came with some kind of Agreement with the so- called international community. The Mandate as usual is they are fighting Al-Shabaab which is not true at all. Ethiopia is the country who has participated (the only African country) in he scramble for Africa of the Berlin Conference before the First World WAR. The went there to get the Somali inhabited Territories of the Somalis who were the neighbors to the AMHARA /and OROMO. Somalis Clan-Communities today  are part of  the citizens Ethiopia in the the so- called SOMALI REGION of ETHIOPIA. The Hawd area was given to them by the colonial British Empire. Today their Agenda is to exploit and control the resources-like OIL and GAS- and colonize indirectly the Clan- Communities of Somalia by dividing them in Regions who are fighting each other in so- called regional Sovereign States. Lately they started calling the SOMALIS as an integral part of the ETHIOPIAN EMPIRE which is inhibited by the SOMALI speaking Clan communities. I know and every body who follows Somali issues knows that the Tigre Regime of ETHIOPIA and some IGAD countries are part of the SOMALI problem from the 80".  THEY MADE AND SUPPORTED THE POLITICAL MOVEMENTS WHO WERE IN THE OPPOSITION IN THE 80" in Ethiopia and participated in the destruction of SOMALIA in the 90". Those opposition movements were allied with the Salafist Movements of the Al-Ittixad Al-Islamiya and in the same time were allied with the ETHIOPIANS( read my blog called “For the new PM of SOMALIA: Lessons from a recent Past”). Later  when the UN and the US came to SOMALIA in 1993 for the Restore HOPE intervention, the new ETHIOPIAN REGIME of MELES ZENAWI   sided with the  Clan-Warlords allied with the Salafist Movements - by giving them  ammunition and political support- who were fighting the UN and US intervention. When with the consent of the so- called international community ETHIOPIA came back to SOMALIA in 1996-1997 and 2006-2009 they massacred and tortured thousands of innocent SOMALIS who were not part of   Al-ITTIXAD in 1996 and in 2006.  Clans who were not part  of Al-Shabaab but just members of some Clans which they thought were against their re-Colonization of Somalia. How The Tigre regime of ETHIOPIA on one hand help Warlords allied with Salafist Movements and in the same time fight Jihadist like Al-Shabaab from the 90”? Why Al-Shabaab and its allies Salafist Business Cartels never Attack ETHIOPIA and instead concentrating all their JIHADISM-terrorism only in SOMALIA and East AFRICA?. Any way Ethiopia and some IGAD countries have meddled in the internal affairs of Somalia and destroyed Somalia for at least the last 23 years. IF we are to have a peaceful and stable SOMALIA the so- called front line states must not be permitted to bring their Armies to SOMALIA. President Hassan Sheik and his DAMU JADID pro-Salafist group and their Warlords./Elite puppet leaders/Organized crimes/Drug-Cartels allies who are the ones supporting the ETHIOPIANS will never subjugate the SOMALI people-citizens to the Tigre regime. Wait and see.
