Is Somalia's al-Shabab on the back foot? Its military fortunes have dramatically worsened in the last year. It began when an alliance of clans supported by Ethiopia pushed it out of most of the central regions of Hiran and Galgudud. This was followed by the loss of the capital, Mogadishu, in August 2011 - no doubt a big psychological and political blow. Outgunned by the African Union force (Amisom), its ability to wage a conventional war seriously diminished and having suffered huge losses, al-Shabab's badly mauled combat units pulled out of the battered capital they have struggled to control since early 2007. Al-Shabab has withdrawn from Mogadishu, which has been at the centre of the conflict since 1991 In the southern regions of Gedo and Juba, Kenyan combat troops and allied local militias, backed by heavy armour and fighter jets, have been putting pressure on al-Shabab in the last three months, making significant territorial gains. Ethiopian troops made an incursion into Somalia in the New Year, the biggest since the December 2006 invasion. They quickly overran the strategic south-central town of Beledweyen and rapidly advanced southwards towards the valley of the River Shabelle. That an ambitious and increasingly concerted military campaign is now under way in southern Somalia seems obvious. A formidable array of forces has been mobilised, though it is not yet clear the extent to which the war is being co-ordinated and who, if anyone, is taking the lead. Even if al-Shabab is not decisively defeated, the group is unlikely to withstand the combined firepower of these armies. Of course, many things could go wrong on the military and political front. Foreign military intervention is deeply unpopular in Somalia and hugely counter-intuitive, at least from a historical perspective. It inflames public passions, radicalises society and exacerbates political polarisation. So far, Somali opposition to the Kenyan and Ethiopian interventions has largely been muted. We have not seen the huge visceral blowback predicted by some critics. 'Gratuitous, indiscriminate violence' More interestingly, the extremists appear to have failed to rally Somalis or to effectively play the nationalist card as they did in 2006. All this does not however mean Somalis are now more accepting of foreign military involvement. Continue reading the main story “ Start Quote Without a clear and coherent long-term political strategy any military victory over al-Shabab will be short-lived” The more plausible explanation is that the insurgent groups are deeply unpopular. Al-Shabab's use of gratuitous and indiscriminate violence; the callous decision to block aid from reaching millions of starving Somalis; its unrelenting belligerence and rejection of a peaceful political settlement and the brutal Sharia regime it has imposed in the south have all combined to create a profound sense of alienation. The overwhelming majority of Somalis, desperate to see peace restored to their homeland, want to see the back of al-Shabab. Despite an instinctive opposition to the presence of foreign armies, many are beginning to accept - grudgingly, no doubt - this can only happen through a concerted regional and international military response. This new attitude of realism and cautious endorsement on the Somali street is fragile. It could quickly turn into hostility if the war turns messy and protracted and the political dividends fail to materialise or meet expectations. The onus must be on Amisom, the lead agency on the ground, to prevent this from happening. Kenyan soldiers are being absorbed into the Amisom force It needs to move with speed to craft an overarching military and political strategy and build cohesion and unity of purpose, aware the alliance could become unwieldy and potentially fractious as more countries join the mission. In particular, there is need to prevent regional rivalries, narrowly perceived national interests and competing agendas from derailing the whole campaign. Two countries whose renewed involvement in Somali has fed such fears are Kenya and Ethiopia. Kenya's decision to join Amisom is partly designed to fend off such suspicions. Nairobi has been stung by the intense speculation its aim is to create a buffer region in the Juba Valley. It is far from clear to what extent, if at all, its new membership in Amisom may have modified the original plan to create Jubaland. If the cynics are to be believed, Kenya has - by joining Amisom - simply obtained a convenient regional diplomatic and political cover to lend legitimacy to its Jubaland project. Counter-productive? Ethiopia's renewed military foray into the central regions of Hiran and Galgudud and further south into the Shabelle Valley may be part of the concerted multi-pronged offensive to cripple al-Shabab, as suggested. If true, it is perhaps a signal Addis Ababa intends to stay in the game and ensure it does not lose out on the political spoils of a victory over al-Shabab. Continue reading the main story Al-Shabab at a glance Al-Shabab means "The Youth" in Arabic Formed as a radical offshoot of the Union of Islamic Courts in 2006 Affiliated to al-Qaeda Controls large swathes of south and central Somalia Killed 76 people in double attack in Uganda during 2010 football World Cup Estimated to have 7,000 to 9,000 fighters It is equally plausible the operation is limited in nature and nothing more than a routine military "housekeeping" designed to shore up allied factions battling rivals for control of key towns like Beledweyn. This Ethiopia has done in the past without much success. The move into the Shabelle and the fact that the Ethiopians are backing a new clan grouping called the Shabelle Valley Alliance has raised speculation the motive may be more ambitious and part of an elaborate strategy to preempt the emergence of Jubaland. The dilemma for the coalition is that Ethiopia's military help is critical and, perhaps, indispensable, notwithstanding that it could complicate matters for the anti-Shabab alliance politically. The quest for a quick and decisive military victory over al-Shabab seems to be encouraging the use of massive lethal firepower. This is heightening Somali fears and may complicate matters and prove costly and counter-productive, not least, because the militant group is now faceless in some parts of the vast war theatre in the south, having successfully blended in with the civilian population. A cautious, well-paced counter-insurgency campaign must be the preferred option. Victory will not be achievable within the short time-scale envisioned by regional military planners. But this is a less costly strategy that will hopefully allow the attrition of fighting on multiple fronts to degrade the group's conventional capabilities systematically. Political deals A degraded al-Shabab is unlikely to be amenable to peace or dialogue, though many Somalis would prefer to see that happen. The more fanatical elements wedded to al-Qaeda's global jihad agenda will seek to regroup and resume the armed insurrection and step up the terror campaign across the region and beyond. The UN says more than one million Somalis have fled their homes It is possible some of its less hardline leaders may seek some form of accommodation with their clans or cut political deals with the transitional federal government and other political formations. The glue that holds the new anti-Shabab military alliance together appears to be the common desire to once and for all cripple the extremist Somali movement and dismantle its terrorist infrastructure and support networks. The determination to act decisively and prevail is, certainly, laudable, but not enough to resolve the Somalia crisis. Without a clear and coherent long-term political strategy, any military victory over al-Shabab will be short-lived. Many of the so-called "liberated areas" - whether in Mogadishu, Hiran, Galgudud or Mudug - remain unstable ill-governed pockets, a depressing patchwork of clan fiefdoms filled with belligerent and heavily-armed clan militias. For all its flaws and excesses, al-Shabab did, at least manage to exercise full administrative and functional control over most areas under its control. Could its defeat and the glaring failure to create a credible and cohesive political dispensation to fill the vacuum inaugurate a new era of anarchy?

In terms of Humanitarian situation the TFG appointed a Ministerial Committee as well as the Somali National Disaster Management Agency. As a result of these we have successfully managed the humantirain situation with better coordination and partnership working between Aid Agencies and TFG. With regards to the Good Governance, again we have made huge progress in this area. TFG continues to take an active stance on combating corruption. In October two district commissioners were arrested and investigated on charges of diverting food aid. We have established a ministerial committee on Anti-Corruption and the cabinet approved an Anti-Corruption Law and the selected Interim Commissioners are in the process of being vetted and will be publicly announced shortly. There are regular and on-going Town Hall meetings with TFG leaders taking questions from the public. The aim of these meetings is transparency and accountability to the public. Furthermore, all ministers address the public via radio and TV programmes to discuss the progress of their ministries. I am sure the TFG progress report on the Roadmap will highlight all the achievements made so far. However, we are all here to see both what has been achieved and what we need to improve on in the next few months. My government is committed and determined to making further improvements and progression towards the Roadmap. However, as I often note, the TFG cannot do it alone and we continue to need the help and assistance from the International Community. Our huge challenges are sustaining security gains while providing basic services to our people. Our National Security Stabilization Plan requires resources in order to fully implement it. Furthermore, we need to immediately start the implementation of DDR which is desperately needed to rehabilitate ex militia and most particularly the generation of our young people who have been exposed to violence. Finally, I would strongly appeal to you to provide the timely resources needed in order for us to fully implement the Roadmap. I urge the International Community to understand the urgency required to commit the resources in order to bring peace and stability in Somalia and to end the transition as per the Roadmap. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your participation and looking forward to taking part of your lively discussions during the session. I hope that all your contributions and exchange of ideas will further enhance our progress towards bringing peace and stability in Somalia.
