Former Somali Defense Minister Warns Al-Shabab

[CoolPoisons]

Col. Barre Aden Shire, Member of Parliament and the former Defense Minister for Somalia has rebuffed calls by Al-Shabab to have a reconciliation conference in Gedo region. Barre described Al-Shabab as aggressors and called them to remove their militiamen from Jubbaland regions of Somalia including Gedo, Lower Jubba, and Middle Jubba or face dire consequences.

Quoting former US President, John F Kennedy, Barre said: “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable”. If Al-Shabab refuse to leave the regions and continue to undermine the democratically elected leadership, the public will defend themselves and defeat the terrorists. He continued to remind them that this is not the first attempt by terrorists to take over the regions and turn them into unstable grounds for breeding terrorism.

In mid 1990’s, Al-Itahad Al-Islam took over most towns of Gedo and established training grounds for terrorists from around the world. The public had resolved to defeat them and they were defeated. We are determined to defeat them once again said Barre who was the leader of the Jubba Valley Alliance that controlled the port town of Kismayo for 9 years.

Before the take over of Al-Shabab, Gedo region had grassroots administration consisting of district councils and regional administration led by the Governor, Hussein Farey who is now in Kenya for security reasons.

Barre promised to bring to justice the perpetrators of violence who are responsible for killing and abducting innocent people including aid workers. He warned young Al-Shabab recruits that they are responsible for their individual acts saying that Al-Shabab will not last long. “The Al-Shabab trends of killing innocent people, looting private property, and digging graves out are un-Islamic, Un-Somali and inhumane” he said.

Intellectuals and leaders of Marehan Sade around the world have condemned the actions of the Al-Shabab terrorist organization and discounted their claims to hold a peace conference in Gedo region. Leaders stated that Al-Shabab do not have any authority to call a clan conference when their leadership and intentions remain unknown.

“How can Al-Shabab call for peace when they uprooted a regional administration recognized by the United Nations to make the region ungovernable?” wondered Mohamud Sayid Aden, another MP who is in Dollow district of Gedo. “We cannot accept our region to be turned into another Lower Shabelle where armed groups continued to manipulate the leadership of the region and its resources for the past two decades”. The MP was referring to the Lower Shabelle region of Somalia, populated by minority groups, but occupied since 1991 by General Aideed’s USC, Yusuf Indha-Adde’s militiamen and Al-Shabab terrorists respectively.

Barre Hiiraale commands a tribal army based in the border town of Dollow that shortly took control of Gedo region in January 2009. With him are notable Marehan Military and political leaders who oppose the occupation of Sade regions by Islamist groups that have links with the global terror group Al-Qaeda.

The Al-Shabab movement has made open threats to neighboring countries, Kenya and Ethiopia. In an official communication to Kenya, they laid claim to the Northeastern Province of Kenya and promised to take over.

Barre concluded his press release thus: “We want peaceful coexistence with our neighboring countries and self-rule for our people. We cannot accept terrorists to occupy our regions. We will defeat them and humiliate them” said the former US West Pointe graduate who designed the strategy for defeating the Union of Islamic Courts in 2006.

Al-Shabab risks loosing grip of Southern Somalia as it faces imminent war from Somalia’s government and neighboring countries.

Someone's writing is so obvious.

lol@ Volt

Shabab waa lagu kalo tagay. The money dried up, the traitors are fearful for their lives.

Thats what I love about Somalia, the more things change the more they remain the same.

[snoop12]

alshabab is going bankrupt, the US suffering from credit crunks, no more funds to Alshabab

Don't think this is true that the Dolow group are refusing talks, but if it is, that would be the dumbest move on their part.

lol,,, the content of that article is ridiculous and completely unprofessionally written. The person who wrote this is so emotional like a woman, that they didn't had the balls to write an article to a professional standard with more facts and less unbelievable lies as opinion.

I feel it's ludicrous that he praises the defeat of Al-ittihad back then, but never mentioned the fact that those who defeated them brought Ethiopian to the region, and from that they till now, the ethiopian are active in the region thanks to Omar Haji Masale and Barre Hiraale who recently lead to noble place where ethiopian never set their foot before-namely Baardheere.

We dnt Barre to repeat the same mistake Omar Haji Masale made.

It's funny to read lies like that Al-shabab claimed to launch war against Kenya and Ethiopia at a this time where they have insufficient amount of arms.

Something people like the stupid author of the article dont understand is that those people he's referring to as terrorist are Marehan Al-shabab followers- and its funny to read him justifying the killings of his own people. What a shame.

Fck Kenya, Ethiopia and anyone who supports or has the slightest compassion for them.

And I suppose your response to this article was professionally written?

I am certainly not claiming to have written a profound response, however, the person who wrote that article is someone who IS claiming to be professional who runs a website.

I just dont understand why he would publish such content which can turn to be catastrophic if the US and Ethiopia believe in his fairy tale and attack the peaceful region in excuse of finding "terrorist" we all know doesn't exist in the region. He is indeed inflaming disaster and destruction.

Compare his disgusting article to the following one posted in gedonet which by reading it shows that it strives to bring all Sade people together in order to achieve peace and prosperity. Compare the following article to the previous one and tell me which promotes peace and creates hope for our people.

Baaq taageero ah oo ku socda hadalka kasoo yeeray maamulka Islaamiga ah ee Gobolka Gedo ka aramiya
Apr 29,2009
by Nayroobi-Gedo-News
Kaddib markii uu Maamulka Islaamiga Gobolka Gedo sheegay in ay diyaar u
yihiin in ay wada hadal nabadeed la galaan xoogagga hubeysan ee ku sugan
magaalada Dolow, ayaa talaabadaasi waxaa si weyn usoo dhaweeyay dhamaan
jaaliyadda beesha Sade ee ku dhaqan dalka dibadiisa.

In badan oo aanan magacooda lasoo koobi karin oo ka mid ah jaaliyadda
beesha Sade oo Meediyaha lasoo xariiray ayaa sheegay in ay soo
dhaweynayaan talaabada uu dhawaan maamulka Islaamiga ah ee ka aramiya
gobolka Gedo u qaaday dhanka nabadda.

Baaqyada ka imaanaya beesha Sade ee ku kala firirsan dacalada Aduunka ayaa
waxay kaloo intaas raacinayaan fariin ay u gudbinayaan maamulka Islaamiga
ah oo ah sidan: "Inkastoon ku farax sanahay talaabooyinka aad qaadeen ee
aan meediyaha ka akhrisanay, haddana waxaan jeclaan laheyn in aan aragno
hadalkaas idinka soo yeeray oo aad ficil u bedeshaan; anaga oo sidoo
kalena mas'uuliyiinta Dolow ku sugan ka rajeyneyno in ay u dhego
nuglaadaan oo ay aqbalaan nabadda uu ugu baaqay maamulka Islaamiga ah ee

Jaaliyadda beesha Sade ayada oo si aad ah ugu faraxday talaabooyinkaas

haddii fursadaas nabadeed la helo in ay si hagar la'aan ah u taageeri
doonaan hanaanka geedi socodka nabadda ee gobolka Gedo.

There can be no negotiations while these "islamist" groups are recieving their orders from outsiders i.e. non Mareexaans.

These guys aren't interested in seeing a peaceful Gedo because thats not what their bosses want. Theres no point in negotiating with a lackey's lackey. Its nearing go time and they know it. Hence why now after months and months they're ready to 'negotiate' without preconditions.

It took our forces less than a few days to capture all of Gedo the last time before the Colonel ordered the troops back to their bases in Doloow and it will take less than that this time.

If they think we've spent the last 7 months mobilizing our forces to negotiate with a bunch of traitors who even if they wanted to can't deliver what we seek, they got another thing coming.

Well if your solution to Gedo region is to kill all the Marehan wadaado, I and other fellow marehan are prepared to defend those wadado and make sure that we dont fall for same lies told by the SNF last time they invited the Ethiopian to invade our region and killed hundreds of brave marehan wadado once we where hoping to have achieved peace.

If Marehan fighting Marehan makes u happy and u would rather fight than compromising with ur fellow wadado marehan, I say go on, U support the marehan puppets of ethiopians and i support the wadado marehan.

It's people like urs mindset that has been obstacle to the peace and prosperity of the region, and I'm sure many marehan's like myself wouldn't be any longer fooled by the same lies Omar Haji once proposed.

The true traitors are Barre Hiraale and his supports who constantly invite the dirty ehtiopian to our noble region, and that's something a noble merahan like myself wouldn't tolerate.

Lets face the reality, are we going to support different groups and play tom and jerry for life? do u think that the Ethiopians care about the peace and prosperity of the gedo region when they are providing arms to Baare Hiiraale? no Wallahi, and in fact they dnt give a damn, and the reason why they giving him arms is because they want HIM to destroy his region and kill HIS own people in the name of some nonsens.

History has taught us that u cant stay in power for ever and that if even Barre hiiraale and his ethiopian allies defeated the wadado, the Marehan wadado wouldn't end there and would revive and erupt like a volcano once again. Is that the life cycle we wanna be in for ever? is it good for our future?

Let's not fck our own people's future ourselves, and lets compromise. No one is stronger than the other.

Taasina shacabka taageeradiis bay shabab ku helayaan iyaga oo isku muujinaya in ay isku dayeen xaalka in ay nabad ku dhameeyaan.

Hadday ku guuleystaan arintaana guul bay utahay oo jahwareer iyo dagaalo soo cusboonaada ayaa bilaabanaya. Haddii barre iyo ku xigeenadii badbaadaanna, magaalada dagaal baa ka bilaabani oo illaa uu mid ka guuleysto wuu socon.
