Somaliland Parliament approves UAE base in Berbera

[Hemaal]

 

[Gilgamesh]

Ever since the fall of Saddam Hussein, the Middle East and the Sunni world in general has been a playground for the deviant and heretics known as the Shias. They have made many gains from Hezbollah in Lebanon to their take over in Iraq to the Houthis attempting the same thing right now in Yemen. Now to mention their failed attempts in Bahrain and Eastern Saudi Arabia to foment unrest in their support for local Shia populations.

Now you may be wondering why does that concern us it's not like we have any Shias in our country. That's true, but the same thing could have been said about Nigeria before Shia missonaries were sent in to convert on mass many Sunnis and now sectarianism never seen in that part of the word is playing out. While the Shias are uniting and defending each other the Sunnis are bickering and being taken advantage of but Somaliland has a chance to show it's resolve. The Domino Theory of the cold war applies to this because when one country falls to Shia influence, countries near it will also follow. The MPs who approved of this deal should happily sleep tonight knowing what great cause they played in this struggle. As majority of landers have the Prophet's blood running through their veins it's only fitting we partake in this and help out our fellow Sunnis in this HOLY struggle against the Shia zealots.

DEUS VOLT!

The government should appeal to the religiosity of the people to get popular support for this deal. Detractors in the media are spreading lies and this can be harmful in the long run. BTW this deal will also include a CARE PACKAGE of military arms and training for the army. It's about time our military was modernised.

Good news

Also military equipment and training are part of the deal

It sets up an interesting conflict with Farmaajo government and invites international condemnation.

Hoe can UAE realistically expect a deal to be uphold when there is no legal frame to accept it. Your also inviting the hatred of the Yemeni rebels that have long-range missels

I told the users on this site that these shias got hektik missles but they laughed at me. The ones they fired at Saudi were nothing, only 500kms. They can hit Harigeisa from Aden but they are nothing. These shias made missles that can travel 3000kms + 10 years, everyone knows they got even better shit.


MFW when the shias can blow up SL harder than Barre could without even invading.

I hope they can't tell the difference between Somalia & Somaliland

That is what I fear to, and Iran might help fund unionist movements in SL

It is a deal that puts ALL Somalis at risk and you sold your port for way way way underprice

But i guess you'd have to feed this - :siilaanyosmile:

Free airtrip, a serious upgrade to the existing airport, a free port, and a few other goodies.

Do you know how many shekels SL is getting?

 

[Steamdevolopment]

You

I hate Ehtiopians more than anything. I won't even sit next to them or eat what they eat.

I just think it is a bad deal for the country as a whole and an immature one too. You have undersold the port by millions. This deal was written by amateurs

It also makes you apart of the Yemen conflict and a likely target of Yemeni rebels who ARE winning the battle setting up a bad relationship with future government

We should sue UAE under international law for violations ofSomali sovereignty and demand compensation

I am not a goverment official and cannot give a such. The Turkey deal is as corrupt as the former goverment but this one you have pales in comparison.

It is undersold, based on weak legal-framework and have geopolitical repercussions and is immoral because you are supporting the killings of innocent muslims in Yemen.

Don't compare the two, they are world apart and this one has implication far outside your overgrown municipality I basically believe it only came into effect because it benefits the interest of this man :siilaanyosmile:

 

[Unionist]

No doubt this will be blocked by farmaajo. Why on earth would UAE sign a deal with an unrecognized autonomous region?
