Puntlands Loss

[gurey25]

How do you lose power? how do you lose the support and accpetance of those you rule or wish to rule over?

by dominating them,
one should logicaly do the opposite, practice humility.

an interesting quote comes to mind

from

the Book of changes by Lao Tzu

the Dao De Ching

"A great country humbles itself before a small one
And thus wins it over
But if a small country humbles itself before it
The great country shall be the loser
What does a great country want but get more client states
What does a small country want but a secure overlord
Both profit from their relationship
But it is up to the great one to bow down"

(Dao De Ching, chapter 61)

Abu Hurayrah ( ??? ???? ??? ?? ??? ) narrated that the Prophet (??? ???? ???? ? ??? ) said: "…and no one will exercise humility for Allah's sake, except that Allah will raise him up". Muslim
