This is old news but you have to love how fickle Somali's are, to still think clan politics reigns supreme.
Why is Faroole backing Sheikh Shariif ? Why is the majority of the people on the ground campaigning for Farmaajo Murursade/Ceyr, mind you his wife is murursade ?
Why are so many of his maternal side of the family (Sacad) campaigning for CC on the ground ? Why is J/land controlled MP's by Madoobe voting for Sheikh Shariif? why are the P/land ones split between Gaas/Faroole blocks? with Gaas backing HSM ?
Let's ask ourselves a different question, why has the TPLF that was Pro P/land and S/land for decades and Anti Koonfur (excluding Bay/Bokool) all of a sudden did a 360 and became the so called champions of Hawiye after a decade of funding warlords and clandestine warfare/animosity?
You guys are nothing more than mere dupes and pawns, no understanding of the geopolitics going on, Ethiopia is simply using this argument against the UAE Axis that a civil war will erupt (because they don't want CC), not that they care one bit about his clan which they supported for two decades, but because of UAE supporting CC, this is classic bait and switch by them.
Ethiopia real plan for Somalia which failed and collaborated by every inside source, was D&M presidency (Sakiin) HG prime-minister (Guled) Ogadeen speaker (Xidig) they all had an alliance, with Xidig they ensure CC is out of the picture, however they failed, with even Madoobe refusing to back him, Plan B is HSM.
The irony is that they were backing a non Hawiye for Presidency anyway, people underestimate how really dumb they are politically, notice how they specifically highlighted 'Majerteen', and how the Xabashi shabab battalion are busy at work in Northern Gaalkacayo and Bosaaso dropping leaflets, but nothing in Garowe were Faroole is Anti UAE.
This is great development, the 'walaalheena' Ethiopia has already been sucked out of the Puntlander's that see them as enemies after decades of convenient friendships, the same is happening in Somaliland right now, the wisdom of God is at work here, as far as I see it. The ilks of
@Thegoodshepherd were more pro TPLF then the Tigray themselves. Once shit goes down in S/land which is hotting up you will
@waraabe also switch, fickle useless bunch.
If I was a Majerteen particularly Omar Mohamoud/Cusman Mohamoud (leaders with UAE). I would be really worried about this blatant open warfare threats, along with letters/assassinations Bosaaso/Gaalkacayo only. The only refuge is in Somalinimo.
