Politics aside, what did Madoobe have done for the people who is supposedly representing?

So do you prefer the debt not be lifted?

You would think they would figure that out by now.

I am all for that but political elite doesn't want to upset "walaalaheen jaarka". The only option left is to support local clans and would create different a headache since Somalis don't see Liyu police as arm of Ethiopia's security apparatus. Thanks to feeble thinking, Liyu Police is as seen as tribal militia We can't agree on what they are or represent let alone confront them.

LOL

Galbeedi, Tillamook is a taxpayer. In any case, this offers Somalia an opportunity, the question is can Farmaajo and co take advantage of it for the sake and in service of the country. I have doubts but wish them the best.

In situations like this, I fully support my northern brethrens. Liyu Police is a menace to Somalis and it looks like their behavior has not changed under Abtigiis.

I guess there has been concerted effort culminating sith Yanks's decision.

I saw al Jazeera reporting on this which I thought was strange.

Somalia secures debt relief- Congresswoman Ilhan Omar HIIRAAN.COM Somali-American Congresswoman Ilhan Omar has announced a deal was reached Tuesday to cancel Somalia’s debt but it remained unclear if...

It's not about what Farmaajo wants but Ì am not sure how another tribal entity will do anything better. Somaliland and Puntland are barely functioning.

Don't kick a man when he's down.

MMA, Where can those of us in diaspora get them?

Yet here you are with your verbal diarrhea. Why don't you go and choke on something.

The problem is how the average Somali sees his relationship with their leadership. The relationship is one way. There is no incentive for Somali leaders to change their behavior because they have came to understand the Somali person will never demand any accountability. If anything the Somali person will literally die for the so called leader despite the leader's abuse behavior.

You are comparing apples to oranges. Puntland wants to redefine the relationship and no cut it off hence their push for the ill conceived federalism. More importantly, Puntland is party to Somalia's problems. It is not stand alone entity.
