An EU spokesman said "they will only talk to moderate elements within the ICU..they will not talk to Aweys"

I undcerstand their fears about Aweys because he is without doubt Talibanseque in his attitudes and temperament.

But trying to isolate him will only make him more popular among his followers, clannist and Wahabbist who will rally to his cause.

Conversely the EU talking to Sharif and sidelining Aweys will only weaken the former and depict him as some kind of western lackey.

What do you think?

this is what aweys had to say:

Asharq Al - Awsat: They met with your deputy Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmad in Kenya and called him a reformist and you an extremist, do you not fear attempts to drive a wedge between you two?

Aweys (laughing): I know what you are getting at, but Sheikh Sharif is not the man America thinks he is. I have complete trust in him, and he has informed me of what has happened. We are aware of this American game - this is a wrong tactic that will not work with us at all.

Any links?

You're right. We should just shoot the fucker and be done with it.

It wont work. There is no shortage of wadaads to replace him. More importantly we wont let you: he maybe a bastard but he is our bastard.

what has the e.u got to do with hutuislam? do you want them to support such a barbaric and savage people? somalilanders and puntlanders will be supported by ethiopia and the west to resist these hutus. that is when these hutus will start fighting and finishing each other off.

the u.n, e.u and the west should send humanitarian aid or any other support for the hutus while they are at war with somalia, cause they will only divert aid to their military machinery, and starve somalis to control them.

We can pay some Somali to do it for us. There is no shortage of Somalis in Somalia who would like the extra 10,000 grand in cash!

What do they think that his violet reeking extremism is a disease they can catch? lol

Its their new approach in order to strengthen ‘moderates’; by recognizing him over Aweys, giving him that international recognition they believe people ‘the Mas’s might follow and weaken the other.
Sharif Western lackey or not will have a status over Aweys If he is accepted in the International constitution rather then the bystander.


Mac that I believe has been a popular tactic of your nation, but it seems failed right?

What makes you think it's failed? Still working like a champ. We still rule the world! InshaAllah we will continue to rule it for hundreds of years. Allah love America!

Mad Mac,

Allah indeed loves America, doesn't he. She's faboulusly rich and healthy beyond measure. But given Allah's notoriety for having super-ultra-extra short attention span, he's liable to go asleep at the switch. Worryingly at crucial moments. He's not reliable hence why it's paramount you make contingency plans. Alternate benavolent deity.

I nominate Bill Gates. Founder of Microsoftisim. Religion of solutions. He gave us DOS OS and then upgraded it to Windows. Unarguably better OS. THen he gave us Microsoft Office with Excell. That neat program where by blithely playing aroud with numbers, you get dramatically different charts. How cool is that? Veeery cool! Try it!


In Bill Gates we trust! In Bill Gates we trust! In Bill Gates we trust!

Microsoftisim. The only religion that went from 0 to 100 Km in less time than it took all the previous religions combined. And Microsoftisim didn't even shed a drop of blood to take over the world.

Good point.
