Challenge in the Red Sea


o long as the Republic of Somaliland withdrew from the rest of Somalia and remained a peaceful and stable democratic State, it is shameful and regretful for the International Community to neglect the wishes of the people of Somaliland for self-determination and also expect to join willingly with their brothers in the south to reform a “Greater Somalia”.

Definitely, political analyst can’t over look that the Union can be only endorsed by the will of the two populations as in the case of former two Yemenis and Germanys. It is clear that Somalilanders were the founders of the Union into which they had voluntarily entered as an independent and sovereign State on July 1, 1960, with the former Italian Somaliland.

Today it is vise-verse, as they are willingly neither for federalism nor reunion. They also like to see a peaceful, stable, Somalia in order to act as a two brotherly States living side by side in a peaceful way. Then why the International Community neglects the people of Somaliland for Self-determination? Is it fair to do that? Does it deserve the International Bill of Rights?

I don’t think so. Article one of the International Bill of Rights refers to the right to self-determination, as does the UN Charter in Article 1and 55. Interestingly enough, Somaliland’s Self-determination is more conductive to regional peace and stability as Somaliland has strong capability of solving longstanding regional disputes with Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, and Djbouti due to its acceptance of the colonial boundaries.

This has nothing to do with Somaliland. The AU has agreed that there can no longer be an adjustment to the state boundaries of Africa. It is a pandora's box.

The AU does not believe in changing colonial borders,
they were not changed in the Eritrean/Ethiopian outcome, nor will they be if Somaliland is Recognized.

Both parties agreed to live seperately.

In order to acheave the same rights as Eritrea, you'd have to come in terms with the TFG. yes, sir.

[gurey25]

They will accept what is presented to them

[Enemy_Of_Mad_Mullah]

Do u think the xabashi agreed with the Eritreans to loose the whole coast?

[Ina Baxar]

I think Bagamundo id right . Ethiopia was ready to let go of Eritrea.
The other thing is , as soon as Eritrea got what it wanted , they start fighting with everybody in the neighbourhood, bad precedent!

[gurey25]

what is wrong with fighting with everybody in the nieghbourhood?

Eritrea had to secure its borders with Yemen, Sudan and Djibouti.

[Garaad_LQ]

the wishes of the people of Somaliland ???? so you guys are speaking on behalf of all inhibitors of the former British Somaliland ?

[gurey25]

yes

[Ina Baxar]

Well securing your border is one thing , laakiin Eritrea started claiming land or islands that were not formerly Ethiopian.
Garaad nobody can speak for all Somalilanders, iska dhiibo fikradaada if you consider yourself one.

[gurey25]

what is wrong with that too?

its only wrong if you dont get away with it.

i.e if you lose

[Ina Baxar]

Gurey-->"its only wrong if you dont get away with it."


So is stealing , killing etc...etc..
Why set yourself up that way to begin with?

[Garaad_LQ]

heheh Somalis will never change ,always on denial of the reality on ground
You people are crying day and night about K/Somalia hijacking you future,and forcing you into a union that you do not want, ( for the simple reason" to run from being minority in Somalia) which is fine with me
but claiming other people's land that you don't even control , and misleading the World Community into thinking that you have a full control of what you claim and the full support of the inhibitors, it's JUST Denial of the true reality , and it will not get you no where , we all Somalis and we know each other (You know the Meaning)

SOMALILANDER FOR THE UNION
