what a strange deal. somalia wouldnt object to a military base so this is the US/UAE/ISRAEL making up nonsense to justfify recognition

also makes sense why they lied and hid what happened in ssc too.

Somalia is not a US ally. Like Djibouti it's not reliable and will easily turn towards China or other US adversaries like it already does now.
 
They are closing africom and their base in Djibouti and merging it with EUCOM to save costs. Why would they then turn around and open a new base in Berbera which would require much more in terms of investment than what they are leaving in Djibouti? Makes zero sense.

From what Im hearing the base in Berbera is meant to counter-act the Houthis. Israel and the UAE are pulling the strings of whatever deal is going on but if it comes with recognition I dont mind it. Finally we can kiss this union goodbye

We had enough to deal with being neighbors with xabashi, now we have to deal with zionist too, damn.

Listen man, HAG looted Mogadishu but they couldn't run off with Somaliland, probably not even the rest of Somalia. HAG looted too much and they couldn't manage all the loot and now they lost some of it. The story of the men who stole more than they could carry.

Hutus had 30 years to stop fighting each other and fix the country but they squandered it. They will take the blame for the fall of Somalia
