There's oil and resources all over Somalia man, we can't each cut off a piece and run off with it. There is strength in unity. All this time people have been fighting over peanuts, the bigger picture has been lost.HutuKing01 wrote:Cut Damn!! Angola is a fine land.
Puntland should follow that route, but first secede from the anti-progress wanlaweynia.
I support this, if you shout someone thing loud enough and many times people start to believe, tell them peace has arrived and money is no worry and more and Somalis will be out of the pessimistic state, positive attitude can turn everything aroundMonk-of-Mogadishu wrote:If Somalis can just keep their little asses together for the few years coming up they will be put into a shock-induced coma by what can happen for them.
I feel like a task force should be created in the country and diaspora that exists solely to distribute propaganda like this so the people can get behind this project. Instead of being forced to run to 5th-world shit holes like Yemen or Bulgaria, they should be gently reminded that they're sitting on a resource that can make Switzerland look poor next to Somalia.
I swore that if any obstacle, foreign or domestic, hindered the progress of oil I would take up arms and die fighting to get oil enlightenment back on track. This to me is more important, clearly more tangible, and more urgent than any so-called struggle that Somalis have ever prided themselves on taking up arms for.

Without even access to this type of capital(again, $1.9 trillion), we've managed to develop an impressive and healthy private sector. We've got a telecommunication sector that apparently has some of the most advanced and affordable services in the world (let alone Africa), a number of construction companies that have literally rebuilt entire cities from rubble, and a media sector that's among the freest in the continent.
I can guarantee the development of secondary and tertiary industries with the development of the oil sector, from the agricultural sector that's widely tipped to have the potential of being a food exporter, to the longest coast in Africa that can support a billion dollar fishing industry.
Only Somalis worship Habeshas and inflate their power. Habesha are powerless. They derive any power from their confidence, and the defeatist nature of Somalis gives them that confidence. They are a nation of 90 million peasants, they are far less educated and far less urbanized and far less aware than the average Somali - this is a fact. Wallahi I watched a documentary where an African-American guy went to rural Amhara region and the savages didn't even know what other Africans look like, they were asking what this person was and where he came from. It was so embarrassing I could not believe it. Meanwhile, even the most baadiya/miyi Somalis have experience or know how to deal with people as diverse as Japanese and Norwegians. We are light-years ahead of Habesha in terms of intellectual power, we certainly always had more urban cities than them (Somalia has more cities above 200k population than all of Ethiopia combined), in fact Puntland alone has more major urban centers than the entire Amhara region which is Ethiopia's most advanced region. Ethiopia will not be able to do jack shit. There was a time when Egypt had influence over Libya but even Egypt could not do shit when the Libyans started to exploit their resources and Egypt has always been far more of a regional power than shitty Ethiopia. And forget about the Kenyans, those guys are diplomatically retarded, some ex-qurbajoog Shabaab teenagers are still embarrassing them in front of the world, Kenya is a joke both militarily and politically.grandpakhalif wrote:I wonder what Ethiopia/Kenya's response will be to the oil project. will they be jealous and attempt to drive "competition" from Somalia straight into the ground? Those Habesha are always thinking.
