Yet, whether it is investment projects like Berbera port, or international visits like Guinea, Somalia's weak, failed, so-called federal government is determined to sabotage Somaliland at every step. Purely because they cannot stand the economic, social and political development of Somaliland. Purely out of spite, jealousy and hatred.
Somalia's failed 'government' thinks that by weakening Somaliland, it can make itself seem stronger than it really is. In reality it would not survive another 24 hours without the protection of 25,000 foreign AMISOM troops. It cannot even visit cities other than Mogadishu, such is its fragility and weakness. It is not elected, not accountable and not independent to the people of Somalia. It represents nobody but their own selfish interests and stomachs of corrupt politicians who are failed taxi drivers and administrators from the diaspora. The so-called federal government is propped up entirely by aid from foreign countries like Turkey.
But by carrying out a war against Somaliland, they are making a dangerous mistake that will cost them dearly. We too can play that game. Somaliland must return the favour. We must sabotage Somalia's weak so-called federal government at every step, every turn. Whether political, economic or security, we must make sure Somalia's federal government never succeeds.
We must invite opposition leaders of Mogadishu to Hargeisa and we must fund them, support them in every way possible. We must deal directly with regional 'administrations' like Puntland, Galmudug, South West state to empower them and set up military bases in Galmudug, Lower Shabelle and South West State. We must invite southern Dir and empower them against the federal government.
This is a war and war demands ruthless reaction from Somaliland's government, if Somaliland is to survive. Our very existence is at stake and we must fight
