Collapse of the puppet regime: new opportunities

[Somaliweyn]

A year has almost passed since Ethiopia invaded Somalia in order to install its puppet regime in the capital of Somalia and oust the ICU.

Instead of strenghtening its puppet regime by installing it in the capital, the opposite has happened: the puppet regime imploded from the inside since it consisted of a collection of opportunistic elements from wide range of backgrounds: warlords, politicians, criminals, illiterate elders etc.

The resistance has grown and is only getting stronger after a year, day in day out Ethiopian soldiers are battled in the capital, ambushed in the rural areas of Hiiraan, Lower Shabelle, Bay/Bakool etc.

Indeed, the latest two PINR reports acknowledge these obvious events.

"Somalia's New Reality: A Strategic Overview"

Events during the weeks following PINR's December 11 report on Somalia have confirmed its judgment that the country has settled into a chronic condition of statelessness characterized by devolution of the political community to clan-based solidarities, dispersion of power to local warlords and insurgent groups, and resultant multi-faceted conflicts.

I hear the U.S wants to cut support to the TFG.
