Oodweyne. In your hasty to declare Puntland nonentity and by extension the larger family, you have ignored some glaring facts that are worth considering. Firstly, there is no elite (there is actually no real elite in anywhere in Somali lands contrary to what we convince ourselves) in Mogadishu with the political acumen to master a strategy that could reduce Puntland or matter any other regional authority including Somaliland to periphery in terms of influence. If there is such elite, please enlighten us. Secondly, you are overplaying how much the international community can do ( Ironically you discount their influence when it comes to Somaliland). There are obstacles least of which is the pledge for new deal. It is one thing to promise something, it is another thing to deliver on those promises as history shows. The cost of financing the SFGis very high, the last thing IC wants to do is corner regions of Somalia that has semblance of normalcy. This is specially true considering the SFG have no legs to stand and it has not the capacity to build institutions including viable defense force. Furthermore, AMISOM has became corrupt to the core as shown by sackings of Ugandan officers by Museveni. The IC is continuing with dual-track despite their pronounced support for Mogadishu. Today, there was a delegation from EU and the World Bank in Garowe discussing the New Deal. Thirdly, when it comes to Jubba issue, people forget one crucial aspect. While Madoobe agreed to come under SFG, it is worthy noting that he was not chosen by them. I don't see the SFG installing their man.They had to make peace with the idea of not choosing who runs Kismayo and by the extension the lucrative seaport. And there is the Kenyan factor and in particular KDF which realized they could make money in Kismayo. The agreement in Addis had unintended consequences, it has galvanized reer Bay/Bakool who are now in the process of setting up their own state. The Speaker has essentially endorsed the initiative by the Malaaqis during his last visit there. It will be very unwise and ineffective for SFG to antagonize another community. Fourthly, "Pashtuns" much like D-Block are not unit that could be united under a common goal. The idea of State from Mudug to the Shabelle is rather appealing, but it's highly unlikely. The residents of Hiiraan who suffered under Osman Atto and reer Mudug will not accept union with Galgaduud and Mudug. I will be very surprised if the internal divisions within the "Pashtuns" and for that D-block can be overcome. SFG agreed to the recent Nairobi meeting, but in the process they managed to piss off ASWH, the only force that ever defeated AS in battle. Your predictions will come true the day the SFG can financially supports itself (an actual tax base) and have viable forces along other institutions, till such day, we are merely entertaining desires and passing them as possible outcomes. I forget to add that the President's alleged connection to Islamists and his debt to those who bought him the presidency.

Aamiin.

Hawd. Right, musmaasuq and q@ldaans are on the other hand ignorant of each other's existance.

If this was Berbera, it would have been welcomed as progress, not a takeover.

It turns out my parents kept my birth certificate all these years and I am happy to report I was not born on January 1st. And someone tried to sell one of our homes in Xamar.

Oodweyne. How much of your argument is what you desire vs. what actually is?

Hehe

LOL@Cadale Opinions inflicted by desires passed as facts succinctly named a reality.

lol@MMA, he is not alone in his ignorance.

Seriously admin, that's name of ACTUAL town and I haven't said anything offensive.

Hawd just discovered the word ********.

^You are not that important I assure....move on.

lol@deporting, all these fat kats living comfortably in the west and probably taking welfare....now preaching hate against poor refugees. p,s, How many people in here actually live back home apart from Ibti and her Bengali kusband? Ibti. Our friend seem to be forget the northerners make huge numbers of these terrorists, not to mention the leadership.

I am not in any of those places currently.

I thought it was out today hehe

Unrealistic goal, things are neatly packaged just like Juba and other shir in Baydhabo. About foreign thing, I stopped asking that question hehe

Unlikely, many competing and opposite interests..

South Asian women got bad deal.

Mudug and Galgaduud. and I guess the shir is about parts of these regions inhabited by a tribe.

So Malistar is okay with federal state in central Somalia? P.s. Considering the tribes of this region moved south, they can't possible have biggest population mase sheekada reer Pland iyo Sland miyaa hehe.

When you says monkeys, I thought you were referring to Alpha.
