Dark History
is repeating itself in Somalia again. It was 1969,
when political assassins and Wahabi sect leaders (Osama
Bin Ladin is Wahabi too) united to destroy a young
struggling but fledging Democracy. Sheikh Nur Ali
Oloow, the first Wahabi trained Somali was
recruited in 1969 by Gen, Haman, then the Somali
Police chief, The deposed prime Minister Abdirisaq
X. Xusein and Somali army Commander Mohamed Siad
Barre in the assassination of the elected
president of Somalia. At the time SYL
administration was the most corrupted
administration ever. The intent of the Political
assassins and Wahabi Sect was to get rid of the
corruption of SYL, by assassinating their leader;
the elected President of Somalia Mr. Abdirashid
Ali Sharmarke. Their conspiracy did not only kill
President Sharmarke, but it destroyed the hope of
democracy in Somalia. It was/is bewildering for
the Somalis to this day to understand the common
ground between those political assassins and a
respected and learned Islamic scholar Sheikh Nur
Ali Coloow. Two words; as the Somali historian
Ahmed I. Samatar recorded; “Greediness” from the
part of the assassins; and extremism from the
Wahabi scholar.
Now at 2002,
Somali Islamists are incorporating and providing a
moral issue to the worst criminals in the annals
of Somali History! Religious scholars and sheikhs
in Somalia are traditionally associated with the
moral value voice of the Somalis. Hence every
imaginable politician seeks his or her alliance
and support. Should not they distance the cartel
of thief’s, assassins, mass murderers, rapists and
hooligans, which is what TNG is composed? TNG
president is Abdulqasim who was a confidante and
right hand man of the last dictator for twenty
years. He nominated the premiership to Col. Hasan
Abshir the hated mayor of Mogadishu in the worst
periods of the last dictator. Should not they put
the interest of the country before immediate
gratification and personal gains? What kind of
moral value the religious man that supports the
TNG will claim now?!
Bias of
US Policy towards Somalia?
American
policy lucks uniformity. Somalia is not different.
How USA is going to help Somalis establish a
responsible government, and bring justice to the
criminals and terrorist who turned Somalia to a
terrorist camp when US is housing the worst Somali
criminals in their soil. General Samatar, the
highest ranked living member of Somali Junta who
destroyed Somalia and inflicted the worst
imaginable harm to Somalis is living in Virginia,
enjoying the loot. Abdirahman Buluq the brother of
the last dictator and minister of foreign affairs
is enjoying the real state he bought with looted
funds from the starving Somalis, Gen. Masalle who
personally selected the officers his regime shot
in Hargaisa in 1978, at the end of the Ethiopian
war is in Columbus. The assassins of the last
freely elected president; Gen. Haman and C/Risaq
X. Xusein are also housed in USA.
How USA
government is going to explain this double
standard? Off course US has a right to justify
their own steps when protecting their citizens,
but they should not claim as a goal helping
Somalis establish an all inclusive government as
long as they don’t return these criminals and
process them in court of law.
Somalis
support US actions in freezing the funds of the
suspected elements of Al-qaida in Somalia. Somalis
are also sympathetic to US cause in bringing
justice to those who committed the barbarism of
911. It would have been nice if US government
freezes and at least expels these tyrants from
their land too.
Endless
reconciliation meetings:
The Al-Qaeda
sponsored Transitional Government of Somalia’s
gathered a while ago in Nairobi in the name of
(Somali Reconciliation) in an attempt to hijack
the war against terrorists and religious fanatics
in Somalia. Proof is the attendees and the
sponsors lurking in the shadows. Al-Qaeda is on
the run, Al-Barakaat funds is drying up, all Arab
donated funds in Djibouti Banks have almost been
spent and the remainder is under the watchful eye
of the US Treasury. The UN political officers,
David Stephens and Randolph Kent, who raised funds
from well intentioned donors for the Al-Itihad TNG
have all been exiled.
Having
the above facts in mind and knowing what pressure
the Saudi, Qatari, Emirates, Lebanese, Syrians and
Iranian fanatics are nowadays under, another
funding source and another safe house has to be
found for the TNG.
Hence,
Egypt and Libya sponsored Nakuru agreement
provides for an international secretariat to be
established in Nairobi to oversee the
implementation of the so call peace process and to
help raise funds for it. This is hoax. It is all
about funding the Al-Qaeda /Al-Itihad/TNG movement
and has nothing to do with Somali peace process.
Prelude
of Nakuru:
Al-Barakaat
and AI-Itihad started moving their militia and
weaponry out of Mogadishu to the Central regions,
Marka and to Kismayo to deceive and create doubts
in the minds of those who would have otherwise
supported to bring to justice to those who
committed crimes against humanity. The TNG started
utilizing Arab media and the BBC (Somali Section
which is headed by TNG president’s cousin) as a
propaganda tool to change the international public
opinion and to lessen the weight of the different
terrorist groups in Somalia under the umbrella of
Al-Itihad Al-Islamiya. Al-Itihad is a growing
threat to the whole region of East Africa and
eventually to the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea.
More than 300 of the Al-Itihad militia were sent
to Afghanistan by Col. Sheikh Dahir Awes to fight
against America. Already some are back to
Mogadishu declaring victory that they had killed
more Americans in Afghanistan claiming that the
western media is not fully reporting what is
happening.
The
Egyptian angle?
Egypt
was a historical ally to Somalia. But Egypt is the
only nation nowadays that exploits Somalis for
their geo-strategic games. Egypt is using Somalia
as a tool to balance Ethiopian threat for their
water resources; The Nile River. Once Somalis used
this card for ban-Somalis, but now Somalia itself
needs to pick the pieces together and stand as a
state and nation. For ulterior purpose Egypt
exports and supports all kinds of extremism in
Somalia just to keep pressure on Ethiopia and that
is how Egypt uses Saudi funding and the Al-Itihad
TNG for their selfish interests.
Criminals:
A) What do
Mr. Salad Hassan (TNG President), Mohamed Deylaaf
(fake currency dealer), Col. Hassan Dahir Aweys
(US most wanted list – Kandahar/Marka/Mog), Yusuf
Garaad (BBC Somali), Hassan Barrise (BBC reporter
in Mogadishu) and Abdi Salad Hassan (IRIN the
brother of TNG president) have in common?
What do
the above individuals share with Ahmed Nur Ali
Jimale (Al-Barakaat and detained (in
Dubai), Abbas Ali Abdi (US most wanted
list – Mogadishu), Abdullahi Hussein Kahiye “Asbaro”
(Mogadishu), Abukar Adane (Hotel Ramadan: Al-Qaeda
Hotelier and financier of the TNG) Mohamed Atef (dead
in Kabul) and Osama bin Laden (missing in
action)?
What
do Ismail Hassan ‘Kutubaweyne’ (Dubai),
Yusuf Jama Degel ‘Cambe-Cambe’ (Dubai),
Sheikh Mohamed Food-cadde (Dubai),
Abdilatif Yusuf Barre (Dubai),
AbdiWahab Mahamud Gurey (Dubai) and Col. Abdi’Aziz
Guureeye Karshe (Dubai) has in common?
They all are
proxies and front line runners of Al-Qa’ida
sponsored international terrorists. Some of them
will change their color when Al-Qa’ida money dries
out and will become the greatest informers for a
willing buyer of their services. Not long time
ago, Abdiqassim Salad Hassan, the TNG president,
invited to his house in Mogadishu some of these
personalities, the Leaders of Al-Itihad, Sheikh
Omar Faruuk, Sheikh Dahir Suuleey, Dasuuqi and Al-Itihad
militia commander, Col. Hassan Sheikh Dahir Aweys,
to a dinner. He praised their militia for their
bravery and gave them incentives to continue
fighting against what he called American
arrogance. The incentives were a promise to a
leadership rank and monetary. Abdulkassim also
inspired those militia leaders to prepare for a
bigger fight. He said that we can invite and
bring to our country who ever we want and America
will meet the same fate as before should they
decide to invade us.
Conclusion:
We should
not buy the UN philosophy of any Government is
better than none. TNG is UN creation. Somalia’s
solution should come from Somalis. The real enemy
of Somalia nowadays is UN experts, who are eager
to impose their ideas.
A
reconciliation conference in Somalia is better
suited to Somali needs. Any clan can invite all
other Somalis. No foreign money is needed, no
crazy sheikh is needed only open mind. Let we do
it!!
