Not sure how official/recognised this press summary is but it uses a somali spot thread as a source for the document below

The thread they used as a source,

Exposing The Fake Document From Somaliland.

Somalilanders are in full force to spread lies and fake news after heavy defeat on the battlefield, to make the international community think they were attacked by Somalia when in reality it was nobody other than Puntland acting in self-defence. A fake letter was released by @MattBryden who's...

Someone on this forum definitely made this own up

It is not really surprising since there is quite few Puntites here that work for the PL government, also many government and independent Somali authors surf this site all the time and sometimes they take some of our information without doing a solid verification , Harun Maruf even use Sspot as his source on his "inside Alshabaab book".

VoA journalist Harun Maruf cited SomaliSpot in his new book Inside Al-Shabaab

I was searching for some old fadhi ku dirir material on google and stumbled on this...

The letter is the same as the one posted in @Yonis thread.

The footnote at the bottom of the letter is literally what Yonis said verbatim.

How can the thread be used as a source if the letter was written before the thread.

 

[Periplus]

After clicking on the EU link, I found that it’s just a compilation of what has been in the news for Somalis online.

They have a compilation of articles from different sites as well as @Yonis thread about the fake letter.

It’s not a PL press release but rather the EU publishing the SSpot thread on the letter to their article compilation.

Its actually the EU that are collating this info not the Somali govt.

They probably want to gauge Somali diaspora opinion and social dynamics.

Imagine becoming a hardcore wadani politician 30 years later and and they pull out your SSpot FKD scripts.

Even worse, the EU actually have authority

Most future politicians have probably been on Sspot or any other somali forum and most have probably took part in FKD so basically we’re all f*cked

You are telling me, that the EU knows I spent 5 hours of my day calling the opposite gender xaarliimos and other clans laangaab. Also my avid discussions on other ethnic groups rivalling an 18th century explorer

Most of the history Somalis quote on here is written by foreigners anyways.

Those foreigners gonna be regurgitating their own words mixed with some qabyalaad.

Its happening right now too. This forum is always shown on google search results regarding somalis. With our exaggerated online presence, its a perfect storm. I know for a fact madows/arabs/cadaans lurk here try to learn about geeljires.

Soon to word laangaab will be worldwide famous

 

[Dalalos_ibn_Adali]

Well PL administration as an institution probably has less educated members than Somalispot, so of course we are going to be their source, its a no brainer, they an barely read or speak Somali over there, it is build on nepotism as we saw in the recent senatorial election.

Congrats @Yonis.

There is a lot of good and valid information on SomaliSpot, especially the Culture and History section and the Development Section.

Years ago, Somalis actually thought they were Black Arabs, now we all know the truth is far more complex thanks to the Genetics Topics.
Furthermore, a lot of young diaspora Somalis now have easy access to statistics, images and information about Somalia and don't have to rely on fearmongering Western Media.

It was not me who named this place MJspot, and I have no loyalty or affiliation to Somnet, its a relic of the past in my opinion, God it is a strange world, out of all people you would associate me to that graveyard, do you not know I have been repeatedly banned, I have dozen of temporary bans and several perma bans.

I am fast becoming a Somali spot content provider for a simple reason, I prefer it over here, design, speed, etc
