Our Mujaahideen are ready to drive out the Tigre Invaders

[Pi]

I think the courts should stop their islamic propanganda. They should either make concessions to the TFG and the Tigrey backers, or they should fight on their own. It's really pathetic when they cry Jihad, just to convince the youngsters and the other more grown sheep to fight for a losing cause.

Before we continue can someone define a mujahid/mujahideen? Does defending your land from Ethiopia (gaalo) and their corroborators make you a mujahid? Then we can at agree on something nice and early.

If you read all the reports about the situation in Somalia today you must already know that it’s not only Ethiopia that is involved. Eritrea is also involved and is alleged to be supporting the Courts. As far as I’m aware Eritrea has never been a Muslim country! Does that mean that those in the TFG could also claim to be fighting a jihad against Eritrea? The situation in Somalia is really not as black and white as some of our hasty brothers here are painting it out to be. These Courts have been calling for a holy war against African troops since 2005 (way before they took power). The call for deploying African troops was in response to the stubbornness of the warlords of the capital (back when most of the brothers here used to support them or at least act indifferent). Now you’re all acting as if you’re dealing with simpletons and as if the issue of African troops was brought about as a response to the Court’s emergence!

 

It’s not Ethiopia that is calling for a holy war. Ethiopia merely wants to support their lackeys in the Somali political scene. This, as you and I know, is not a new position or policy. It has always been thus. I am not siding with the TFG here for I consider them as rotten as the next group. However, I find this jihad nonsense to be insulting to any sane person’s intelligence. So far and from the way things stand it really looks like all sides are taking us for a nasty ride.

 

If the Courts and the TFG are genuinely interested in the fate of Somalia they will both make concessions and trash a deal in their next scheduled talks. Ethiopia and Eritrea should not be the ones that call the shots here. It should be the Somali politicians (on both sides). However, I doubt that either side is willing to make any concessions and for that reason I’m reluctant to consider this coming war (should it come) as anything different to what we had before. Well, maybe the only difference would be is that Tigrey would be fighting other Tigrey on Somali soil. Stuff the lot of them.

NG, good points. But, if there is a war between Somalis and Ethiopia what are the Somalis fighting for?

 

In my opinion they are fighting for their freedom from outside interference and the establishment of an Islamic state whilst the TFG will be fighting for their pockets and further corruption. The fact that Eritrea (gaalo) is helping Somalia does not make the jihad (fighting for freedom and Sheria is a jihad in my view) cause redundant. When all is said and done what are the UIC fighting for?

What were the ICU fighting for?Well,they were fighting for the opposition of the TFG. Only that.
