Xaaji, who will you side with if there's a war between reer Awdal, and Habashi/Bixiye?

Reer Awdal should start appealing to the broader Somali population.

TPLF refused to join Abiy's war. They still have 250,000 well-armed combatants. They gave up working with Abiy's admin and are fruitlessly appealing to the AU for the implementation of the Pretoria Agreement. The aid was down almost to nothing and starvation has set in. In essence, the Habesha highlanders are either fighting him or watching him die slowly. So far, among Somalis, Cagjar refused to commit the Liyu Police. It is only Muse Bixiye who is hoping for Abiy's success.

“[Fano] was NOT able to capture Addis Abeba with in the 48 hrs or few days time they bragged about.” ~Field marshal (do NOT laugh) Berhanu Jula, at Adwa victory celebration by regime folks, in Addis Ababa earlier today. But he threw a serious allegation at Fano, that the Fano is undoing the Army by enticing them to desert in the thousands and send them home.

Galbeedi, Ethiopian infantry and mechanized divisions are being amassed from Awdal to Galgaduud. HSM did nothing tangible as expected, what's Awdal's next move?

The Arny is worried about desertion among other things.

What did you see what mini-Modi was saying?

Nothing interesting, a delusional power-hungry man is about to plunge the north into war and give Somali shores to Ethiopia so he can stay in power and continue to loot.

It seems Fano's goal is to first exhaust the ENDF and drain the Abiy admin's resources. These bursts of attack on towns and cities and then retearing became a pattern. In response, Abiy's forces attack residents which in turn prompts more people to join Fano.

Xaaji, let's not indulge in the same old mantra. Xamar indeed has no physical control over Hargeisa, but Sland is legally under Xamar. No amount of saying Sland waa qaran will change that. And despite what Ethiopians are saying, Abiy walked into a legal minefield which he is too proud to extricate himself from. Most wars are started due to errors in judgment or hubris. It seems Abiy and Bixiye made serious errors and are too proud to back down.

Arafat, SSC folks can respond in two ways depending on who attacks. If Bixiye and his goons attack by themselves, SSC should respond harshly but proportionally. Whoever Bixiye recruited for the new wave of attacks is not well trained or as experienced as the previous Sland 'army', More importantly, SSC forces are battle-hardened. SSC are far better in messaging and they will have the support of the Somali public as they are not the aggressors. HSM gave Bixiye political cover during the LA siege, but this time around, HSM might not be so generous. If Ethiopia gets involved directly or bullies SSC by establishing bases inside SSC territories, everything should be on the table. We can't have Abiy think he can set up shop everywhere. This will also be the time for HSM and his admin to put up or shut. Either way, we shouldn't underestimate Bixiye's desperation and bruised ego, and Abiy's attempt to externalize his country's problems.
