Dr. Hassan Khannenje of HORN International Institute for Strategic Studies a 🇬🇧 funded institute based in nairobi kenya wrote this laughable article in an attempt to discredit the somali security forces.
Dr. Hassan Khannenje is a kenyan who is based in nairobi and works for a institute that is being funded by the kenyan govt, the national counter terrorism center kenya, the tony blair institute and IGAD. All of these donors have an interest in 🇸🇴 ’s security architecture.
3/10
1st : So Dr. Khannenje works from a hostile country 🇰🇪
2nd : his institution is is connected to many people who have an interest in somalia’s security architecture.
3rd : he has absolute no knowledge on 🇸🇴 ’s affair nor does he have any experience in 🇸🇴 or speak somali.

First of all hassan a bantu kenyan has no direct acces to any information on 🇸🇴 and doesn’t speak somali so all of his information is at minimum secondary and reading the article myself makes me question his epistemology on matters concerning somalia.
5/10
Here is the article in question 👇 hassan starts in the typical sahan fashion and uses an outdated picture that illustrates a somewhat unprofessional and unorganized security force coupled with the headline somalia is still fragile what can amisom do to stabilise it.
6/10
What our bantu brother is doing is basically begging the question he assumes the conclusion but doesn’t provide any evidences for it. The main argument dr kannanje and many other 🇬🇧 funded institutes use is the april clashes when some opposition member tried to stage unrest

In this particular case only 150 somali national army soldiers deserted in an army of 30k many actual somalia analysts actually make the opposite claim that because of that incident the army has actually proved it isnt divided along clan lines and maintained professionalism
8/10
Dr kannanje also tries to make the argument that amisom should be involved in political affairs and that a couple years will never be enough for amisom because the somali army is semi professional ill trained and lacks any tactical doctrine 👇👇
9/10
He also suggests that handing responsibility over to the somali armed forces should happen and I quote ‘“carefully” and i am sure whatever carefully actually means is determined by the 🇬🇧 government !!
10/10
There is a full assault on somalia’s security forces the groundwork is being laid !! How ?? false accusations and fake analysts reports and fake institutions reports !! @TheVillaSomalia must academically and scientifically counter this disinformation campaign.

The mosque was built in 969 by Sultan Abu Bakr Fakr ad-Din of the Fakr ad-din dynasty, but some historian say it was initially named something else but was rebuild & renamed in the 1300s after the somali sultan abu bakr who ibn battuta will meet in 1331 and write about. 👇

Stone, including Indian marble and coral, were the primary materials used in the construction.The structure displays a compact rectangular plan, with a domed mihrab axis. Glazed tiles were also used in the decoration of the mihrab, one of which bears a dated inscription.
This thread is meant to showcase the dubious events surrounding secret deals btwn separatists rebel entities in northern somalia and western govt/intelligence agencies and multinational and US think thanks.

The story starts in 2016 when the UAE out of nowhere enters into an illegal agreement with a rebel separatists group in northern somalia ( somaliland ) making the fed govt of Somalia immediately declare the agreement null & void and relations btwn 🇦🇪 & 🇸🇴 are strangled.
Rashid abdi a kenyan from rendille origin wich is a branch of the larger cushitic tribe. Who also speaks somali and has an islamic name so many people falsely assume he is somali Here is an description of what rashid exactly does👇
Rashid abdi works for @SahanResearch wich is a Western funded think thank under the supervision of matt bryden a canadian national convicted in somalia to a 5 year sentence for spy activities and leaking state secrets in his time as a UN worker.

Rashid abdi and his employer/partner in crime matt bryden act predominantly on behalf of western powers but sometimes also gulf arab states. And what do they exactly do ?? HYBRID WARFARE !!
Today i will focus on rashid abdi and his exact function 👇👇👇
How N&N has completely blocked the collapse of southern somalia!! Ask yourself why is there an koonfuur galbeed and jubaland & who created it & who opposed it?? And why is kenya insisting on an ogaden prez in kismaayo? Bcoz they understand somali clannism!

In the mid 2000s plots were being planned against the somalis predominantly against the hawiye! Idc about qabil but this issue is clan related! The hawiye were being blocked from taking full control over JL & KG here is a reference from wikileaks about it👇cage in the hawiye
3/7
why would they care about hawiye having control over the rest when they dont mind that with isaaq in waqooyi! Why?? Bcoz southern somalia has more resources & therefore should be in a weak state in order to facilitate exploitation! A full hawiye control means..
