It is the saddest thing that some among us, even here on Somalinet, believe that governments such Ethiopia or Kenya, were our saviours, when they are nothing but our staunchest enemies. It is utterly logic-defying, that despite the obvious geo-political, economic and historical policies of these governments towards Somalia, some among us think they genuinely have our interests at heart, that they are here to 'help' us. Why would Kenya empower us when it perceives that it is in its interests not to do so? When Kenya massacred and ruthlessly oppressed them and even even today they are discriminated, marginalised and neglected, sentenced forever to be enemies of the state, condemned forever to be foreigners in their own land (see this video They are today reduced to begging and bribing for what is their most basic right, their right by birth. There is nothing worse than being oppressed in your own home. Why would Ethiopia empower us when it perceives that it is in its interests not to do so? When Ethiopia massacred, and continues its policies of genocide; ruthlessly oppresses even the Somalis in its own country, who inhabit the Ogaden region roughly 1/3 of Ethiopia, let alone those outside; even today they are discriminated, marginalised and neglected, sentenced forever to be enemies of the state, condemned forever to be foreigners in their own land.
Sheikh Shariif is either the greates traitor of the Somali people post-2006, or one of the biggest, most naive, fools. The conflict in Somalia seized to be a 'civil war' a long time ago.
It took me a while before I could respond to this thread, cadho iyo ciil aawadeed. Tolay maanta Amxaar, Kenyaati, Burundi, Ugandi, Sierra Leone and others Somalia qaybsanayaan. Somaliyeey idinkaa halkaa is dhigay ... lax walibay halkay is dhigtaa lagu gawracaa. RIP Somalia. This is indeed a dark day. May Allah save what remains of you.
