Eaglehwk,
It's amazing the bloated significance people give themselves on the Internet. Here we have a member of clan who was almost entirely misplaced & exiled out of Somalia only to be used as pawns & agent provocateurs by the same militias that humiliated them & their 21 year old dictatorship in the first place celebrating this humiliation as some sort of achievement. Even the articles you bring to substantiate your silly revisionism state early that
Marehan interests were driven by the politics of survival Ceyr militias almost single-handedly defeated Morgan & the Harti militias out of the Jubba Valley and used their military power to enrich themselves from the charcoal trade & Kismayo port. The deputy chairman & financial portfolios were controlled by Ceyr- a clan who had ZERO membership in the region it was controlling. How do you explain this?
Aside from the Harti and Marehan, the main group of newcomers are the Habir Gidir and other Hawiye who came in 1991-1993 as General "Aydeed" drove Siad Barre and General Morgan (Majerteen) out. On the last occasion when General Morgan moved towards the town in 2000/2001, a force of 60 Ayr technicals was raised by the Ayr courts in Mogadishu and Merka with the support of Mohamed Deilaf and other interested businessmen.
Mohamed Deilaf's interests include the import of sugar from Brazil en route for Kenya. The JVA is currently headed by Colonel Barre Adam Shire "Hiraale" (Marehan), but remains dependent upon Ayr business interests and the associated Ayr militia; while this is the case, Marehan and Ayr can be expected to co-operate. Attempts to set up an Islamic court, however, will upset the local consensus and is likely to lead to infighting between Marehan and Ayr.
When the ICU came along, Ceyr ditched Marehan & Col Sareer led the ICU militias that defeated his old agent Hiraale out of Kismayo. Basically, the old stuff about use & abuse. Today Hiraale is under Ethiopian house-arrest & Kismaayo is out of his hands. As I said you have a lot of gall equating the historical embarrassment your clan suffered & insulting Mudulood.
I brought down the entire military machine of Habar Gidir & it's affiliated allies on my own & controlled upwards of 80% of Mogadishu.
Kaaran
Yaaqshiid
Waaberi
Boondheere
Shibis
Madina
Dharkenley
Shangaani
Abdi-Aziiz
And co-ruled large parts of Hodan, Wardhigley & Huriwa. That was the political reality in Mogadishu throughout the civil war. Economically, Mudulood controlled Mogadishu's only port & Airport and exclusively held the Middle Shabelle Valley- the breadbasket of Somalia. So, my clan was not humiliated on the battlefield & my people did not have to run on handmade boats to Kenya. Yours did. So, you should be the last person using Habar Gidir as an argument.
The civil war was series of battles waged to implement varying clan agendas. My clan agenda was always simple: to restore the political, social & military leadership of Mudulood in Mogadishu. Today these core objectives are achieved. What did your clan achieve from the civil war other than humiliation at the hands of one Jufo of Habar Gidir?
Lol@ AY, the simple fact that a Mudulood Prime Minister on one hand & a Mudulood leader of the ICU engineered the collapse of the Abdullahi Yusuf government & departure of the Ethiopian troops is enough to prove that my objectives were not dependent on any outside force.
Ps
Lol@ using the grand Welcome your clan leaders, women & children threw for Muse Sudi Yalaxow. You had to shut-down the entire city just to accommodate him & you have the audacity to say Mudulood is not powerful. Fantastic LOL
