UN security council exposes Kenyan Lies, Eritrea is innocent

Eritrea did not arm Al-Shabaab militants, says UN report

The United Nations has discounted reports that Eritrea supplied weapons to the Al-Shabaab militant group to fight Kenyan troops last year.

A UN Security Council assessment report for December said investigations had established that Eritrea did not supply the weapons as alleged by the Kenya Defence Forces.

“The Monitoring Group also pursued its investigation into alleged arms deliveries by air to the Al-Shabaab controlled airfields in Southern Somalia in late October and early November 2011, the report reads in part.

"The SEMG’s preliminary assessment is that these reports were incorrect and that the alleged deliveries to Baidoa probably did not take place."

Military spokesman Major Emmanuel Chirchir had claimed that at least three aircraft had landed at the Baidoa airstrip in southern Somalia carrying weapons to the militants.

"We know Baidoa is being used to deliver weapons,” Maj Chirchir was quoted at the time and warned that Kenyan troops would shoot down any aircraft overflying Southern Somalia.

“Every time we have a delivery, we are going to take that aircraft down. All aircraft are hereby warned not to land in Baidoa," Maj Chirchir said in a statement on his Twitter account.

"Anyone violating this will be doing so at their peril. Further unauthorised flying over the region will be considered a threat.”

Foreign Affairs minister Moses Wetangula also summoned Eritrean ambassador to Kenya, Mr Beyene Russom to his office to explain Asmara’s alleged links to the militants.

Eritrea through its Foreign Affairs ministry vehemently denied the claims branding them as part of Ethiopia’s campaign of misinformation to discredit Asmara.

On Monday, the Eritrean embassy in Nairobi demanded independent investigations into the matter.

“Eritrea has requested a full, fair and independent investigation to be conducted by UNSC to the above mentioned allegation and all other unfounded related accusations,” a statement from the embassy read.

Good for the Eritreans they are declared Innocent eventhough i still think they arm them secretly

[Mondey]

Major Chirchir is the stupidest military official in East Africa. hes a bad liar too.

Al-Shabaab is armed by the "same forces" who back AMISOM. If you don't know that, you should quit discussing in politics at all. There is a reason why these same forces deny the closure of the Kismayu port. The whole Eriteria claim was all smokescreen. Keep in mind Eriteria is part of the equation, and all of the fuzz claims it makes about Somalia is itself part of a plan.

"These same forces" were meeting with Al-Shabaab in Khartuum, Sudan in early December 2011 with Egypt and Qatar doing the mediation. The whole Al-Shabaab withdrawal from Mogadishu was prerequisite to that meeting in Sudan.

The Somali civil war is a stalemate managed by countries who are subcontractors to these same forces who are managing it on all sides.

In February 2012, a meeting will be held in London, UK, where they (Somalis) will be told how to move forward from the current and managed stalemate. It does not mean the end of the stalemate, but it is one step forward.

Wallahi if we were to arm al-shabab and train them they would be In naiorbi by Now, you are really under estimating Your own People if they are given Proper Training and Good weapons Meles and Kibaki would have sleepless Nights, Al-shabab are supplied By the same People who are supplying TFG.

If alshabaab is being armed by the international community than somalia is fucked I think though the cia is involved but not that deeply . Alshabaab are not allowed to come to the so called peace talks nor are they allowed to talk to somalias tfg paper govt. Its away for the status quo to continue.

Of course al shabab is armed by int. Arms Dealer proy by America and ethiopia, The only reason Eritrea is getting sanctioned and portraying eritrea as bad country is to detter it from engaging and fixing the problem, Even when they used Sudan to organise a real peace Talk between the tfg and the ICU in khartoum the tfg were instructed by "external" forces not to reach any agreement and make a mess out of the meeting (Check out the al jazeera interview in youtube with members of both the ICU AND TFG), So eritrea knew that this whole thing was a game, and al shabab is even indirectly controlled By the same people controlling TFG, AFTER ICU the whole thing is just a big game, to even test the waters eritrea sneakily said to gather arab muslim troops who would actually care about the local population and hold peace talk but bthen tfg strongly refused.lol When al shabab threatened to attack Eritrea few years ago the eritrean Minister said "you need permission from your employers first which i doubt they would give". All this mumbo Jumbo is to tell eritreans we know you know the game plan don't ruin it for us and bring somali together, we have a plan here as you can see to cripple these people. If america weren't involved this whole mess would've been sorted out by now, Somali are Ethiopian Biggest threat because of their religion,langauge and high birthrate (mashallah) if somalia didn't collapse in 1991 it is estimated that the somali population including ogaden would have been on par with the ethiopian population, lol imagine ethiopians with the best army getting their a** kicked by Eritreans who were 1:20 Ration, can you imagine somalia with same population and united??? that is why they have to cripple and make somali fight among each other while creating famine and dividing the country.

Midri the west are hypocrites to the fullest But Somalis are also fucked up and can't get there shit in order the TFG is a joke which allows Foreign Countries to invade Somalia ,the Ethiopian run the igad shit in the horn, the problem is not so much religion of Ethiopia its their interference into Somalia and Somali affairs. Thats the biggest problem Ethiopian used to arm factions and warlords since the 90s but they still do it. Eritreans did their part of helping during the first ethiopian invasion when senior icu members went to Asmara. but the shit now and days is getting out of control we can just pray for allah to make it better this year because Somali politicians are fucked up and don't have a long term plan they are corrupt and want to stay in power. Eritrean you have nothing to worry because you're country is pretty united all you're nine Ethnic Groups You guys have one of the largest armies in Africa We know how the Ethiopians were humiliated at badme,if they attack you another time You can capture all the way to adwa , Ethiopians are divided as fuck the Amhaaras are not going to fight for Melez nor are the oromos going to do fight for him. We the Somalis are just waiting for the right term to capture the big cities the ONLF is the strongest rebel movement in Ethiopia, time will tell

[Oxidant]

Anyone could have told you this without the UN. What exactly does Eritrea benefit for arming Al Shabab? If anything, a strong United Somalia is what Eritrea wants. Also Horn of Africa is one of the most heavily militarized regions in the world. So it would be practically impossible, to fly from Eritrea over Djibouti with houses America, France and Japan. And land in Somalia and unload a shipment of weapons without anyone knowing.

Well Said. ONLF Is an organisation that have the exprience and know how meles and the habesh play the game, they also have alot of experienced fighters, Sooner or later Meles Goverment will crumble because of its reliance to the west, Just like the derg relaince to the soviet, once the west lose interest or are unable to support the regime you will see army like the ONLF unhiding all its power and start the push, They tried the same thing that is happening in somalia in Eritrea in 1996, and by 1997 the west were unhappy with Eritrea's plan that they asked ethiopia to hassle Eritrea by all mean neccessary, The war started in 1998 By CIA PLANNING with ethiopia, after 12 months provocations and territory invasion they killed an Eritrean colonel and that was the straw that broke the camel back. I am not somali but from the somali that i have met even from different qabil there is still alot of nationalist Love hidden underneath their qabil talk, ONLF seems to be the Uniting force with many somali's, Once the ONLF start the push i predict that all somali would unite for ONLF whether they are somali for somalia/Puntland or somaliland. Ogaden seems to hold a special place to many somali i have met regardless of their qabil, Ogaden is also known In eritrea as the "Open wound of Ethiopia" , Al shabab is phony everyone knows that, ONLF IS THE REAL DEAL that is why onlf representive in Eritrea are the most protected and have a high secrecy routine with their activity some say only the president of eritrea and few advisors knows of their progress, The rest you pretty much read about their meetings on different websites. Do you know what is ethiopian want with Eritrea??? They want to talk you know about what??? O.N.L.F!!! and Eritrea said forget it.

Exactly... If you look at history whenever Eritrea (Midri bahri) or somalia were strong they never attacked each other infact many times they were allies, The most Unorthodox Allaince was between ahmed gurey and King isaac of Eritrea, Eritrea would benefit Greatly with strong somalia, if somalia becomes the strongest country in the region Eritrea couldn't be happier, a stronger somalia also helps eritrea with economic progress and attarct trade business in the region.
