Gaal on Gaal war!

the more they kill each other the better.

[James Dahl]

I bet there's a couple bucks in it for whoever in Somalia buddies up to Putin

Cold War 2

[AbdiWahab252]

James,

We are already seeking Indian Assistance for Galmudug. Don't trust the Chinese.

[James Dahl]

Absolutely. The Chinese are in bed with Zenawi at the moment and don't have Somalia's best interests at heart.
Iran, Russia and India are strategically the bloc to align with for Somalia.

[AbdiWahab252]

JAmes,

The Indians were not bad peacekeepers in 1993 and did not kill any Somali during that time unlike the Pakistanis.

I do believe the time for a multipolar world is here. We are approaching a milder cold war

[James Dahl]

Pakistanis aren't bad people, they're just part of the USA power block, have been since the 1980s.
India and Iran have been aligned with Russia since the early 1990s.

Multipolar Power blocks today (IMHO):

ASEAN-Taiwan-Japan
EU-WannabEU
Russia-India-Iran
China
USA

The gigantic USA led block is slowly drifting apart and the unaligned's are picking new sides.

[SahanGalbeed]

Fact is , US forces WERE already on the ground , stationed there training georgians, when all this shyte happened.
yar somali ah oo halkaa tagay ayaaban maqlay warkiisa !

[James Dahl]

Current world alignment, as far as I can see:

[shaamboo]

that wont happen

[James Dahl]

that wont happen

What won't happen?

[shaamboo]

US confronting Russia
Russia is not somalia or middle east jini miirkiis waa qabaa

[Habshir77]

James Dahl Colombia is part of the US bloc in South America remember Uribe
and Congo is right now being fought over by Anglo American vs China interents
there is this 80 billion dollar electricty project being awarded soon by Congolese governments
I think its gonna show the complete shift of Congo...

[James Dahl]

The US wants Georgia in their column, but they're not willing to go to war to get them. Everyone likes the status quo except the Georgians so just ignore any sabre rattling from the USA, it's to score points with Georgia.

Re: the map, Columbia is waffling between pro-Venezuela (and by extension, Russia and Iran) and pro-USA and hasn't taken a firm stance, though they used to be pro-USA.

The two main factions in Congo are actually two rival pro-China groups. The pro-western genocidal Hutus in Congo used to rule in Burundi though no longer. The Ugandan and Rwanda-Burundian backed Tutsis are pro-China as is Zimbabwe and Angola who support the government.

[Habshir77]

what about Lonhro company and other major anglo american companies in Congo
have they given up... sounds unlikely

Nigeria is also too important for the US
they provide 12 % of the oil to US ... (!)

everytime one of those pipelines gets blown up in the Niger delta
