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.
3/17
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.
4/17
The hostile actions of the uae obviously led to somali intelligence agencies paying close attention to their activities in 🇸🇴 and in 2018 they seize millions of dollars in suitcases flown in by uae officials at aden adde airport in mogadishu and bilateral relations collapse
5/17
The uae next to the 450 million dollar berbera port deal also decides to build a military base in berbera and constructs the berbera airport and extends and reconstructs the airports runway to fit international standards! ( NATO standards )
6/17
But after having completely finished it they decide they no longer want it !! There are some strange reasons given !! Hmm 🤔
7/17
The separatists ( somaliland ) who were in talks with the central government of 🇸🇴 mediated by turkey out of nowhere demand that the 🇬🇧 & 🇺🇸 to be included in the next rounds of talks and want to hold the next round of talks in Djibouti and no longer turkey !
8/17
The 🇺🇸 and 🇬🇧 facilite the meeting and are even present at the meeting !! What i immediately noticed was the title of the meeting ! Somalia somaliland talks ! Why would the fed govt agree to that ?? isnt that already conceding ground to the separatists ?? Why ??
9/17
Here is proof of the fact that the somali govt actually are sensitive and know how to articulate and use the correct term when they reffer to the northern separatists !! Here they clearly call themselves the government and them somaliland wich is the official position of 🇸🇴
10/17
So we can from that conclude that the fed government didn’t had any saying in the architecture of the meeting !! But who did ? Farmaajo was literally pushed by 🇺🇸 and 🇬🇧 to go to the meeting and everybody decided to call it 🇸🇴/somaliland even after complaints of the govt!
11/17
The meeting was a disaster for the fed govt and they couldn’t understand what the 🇺🇸 & 🇬🇧 wanted !! Why were they pushing the case so hard and are setting them up !! The central govt delegate were all hardcore unionist and didn’t agree on anything and left confused !!
11/17
After this strange event immediately after there came more 👇👇 the separatist leader was being invited to kenya and foreign ex diplomats from poor African countries traveling to them and many more events but what made everything clear to the 🇸🇴 govt was taiwan !!
12/17
The 🇸🇴 govt understood that the 🇦🇪 a US proxy actually build the airport for NATO use and the bosaso port deal to keep china out ! Guess who has a stake in the illegal port deal ? The uk 🇬🇧 and i can assure you these deals are years in the making ! 🇦🇪 acted as an scapegoat
13/17
politicians in mogadishu believed with a new biden-harris administration in Washington the 🇺🇸 would no longer engange the separatists or entertain them !! There is some truth to it and it seems the biden administration doesn’t have an interest in dividing up 🇸🇴
14/17
It seems the separatists are being promoted by predominantly republicans and institutes like the Atlantic council who have an investment in the anti china activities in the horn !! And the separatists with their rhetoric try to appeal to them !!
15/17
The separatists clearly noticed the lack of interests of the biden administration so they upped their game went to taiwan and insulted china on world stage and immediately afterwards whent to the 🇺🇸 to see if their stunt had worked !!
16/17
It was a complete disaster and the biden administration to the anger of some of the invested right wing individuals and institutes in the states !! It seems now the 🇬🇧 & 🇺🇸 both wanna use the northern facilities against china but maintain good relations with mogadishu !
17/17
The truth is 🇸🇴 was declared a battlefield against china by right wing institutions and politicians in the 🇬🇧 and 🇺🇸 !! But recent statements of the 🇺🇸 and 🇬🇧 on respecting 🇸🇴’s sovereignty shows that the democrats essentially want the same but have a vanilla approach!

Ethiopia & somali separatists in hargeisa are trying to coordinate their propaganda wich is being designed for them by western think tanks I.E manipulation centers
Here are some of them👇👇👇
#somalia #mogadishu
2/18
1 : misrepresenting statements opposing the illegal MOU
2 : falsely claiming somalia is incapable of physically opposing the illegal MOU
3 : falsely claiming that somalia’s unity btwn the north and the south wasn’t legally ratified
4 : downplaying all criticism.
3/18
5 : falsely trying to present somaliland’s case as an fait acompli ( example : we have already left and are not coming back or we have been longer without you then with you )
6 : CONFUSION‼️
7 : falsely claiming that FGS doesn’t have any control over somaliland
Somalia is clearly being lured into something and the united kingdom is behind it and they’re using the UAE as a proxy and by extent ethiopia too!
Somalia should act strategically not emotionally!!
Let’s consider all the facts!!

First of all it was the UAE who initially started the berbera project in 2016 and finalized the agreement in 2018.
Every since then, there have been white western & certain africans NGO’s and individuals who came out of nowhere who are all extreme somaliland supporters.
3/19
As soon as the uae started the development of the berbera port guess who sneaky inserted themselves into the berbera project ??
Thread on marco polo’s description of Mogadishu from btwn 1271 AD to 1291 AD
This thread also highlights somalia’s famous textile industry
It also highlights how the presence of the jareerweyne community in 🇸🇴 is directly linked 2 🇸🇴’s textile industry

When marco refers 2 mogadishu he uses the name “Madagascar” and the term “island” wich historians explained is a misinterpretation of the arabic word jazeera wich means island or peninsula
The island of Madagascar should therefore be understood as the Mogadishu peninsula.
3/25
That Marco Polo means mogadishu when he uses the name Madagascar is confirmed when marco states that the great island of Madagascar is approximately a 1000miles south of the island of socotra and that madagascar lies btwn socotra and zanzibar wich mogadishu “exactly” is 👇
Here is proof that I.M Lewis was deliberately manipulating somali history
I.M Lewis an British colonial historian was deliberately manipulating somali history and was intentionally misquoting written historical documents on Somali cities👇
#somalia #mogadishu
2/11
Both I.M Lewis 🇬🇧 and Enrico ceruilli 🇮🇹 were colonial administrators and self proclaimed historians that deliberately tried to disconnect the banadir coast from somalis historically.
How ?
By emphasising arab presence and adding their own interpretation to that presence.
3/11
I.M Lewis in his book on HOA history states that by the 13th century the hawiye ( somali clan) had established themselves around the arab settlement of marka. And he uses ibn sa’id al maghribi as a source
Why is he calling marka a arab settlement? Ibn sa’id didn’t say that
Around the 10th century Mogadishu became a world famous port city and is clearly described by literally every traveler or historian from every nation around the world that has visited it or written about it, as the the biggest, richest and most powerful city in east africa.
3/25
The ivory & gold trade is one of the main reasons Mogadishu is so wealthy & there is clear consensus amongst african & western historians that the merchants of mogadishu r the first 2 arrive in sofala Mozambique with ships in search of gold & ivory in wich they find plenty.
Abu barakat al-barbari simply means father of the blessed somalis nothing else‼️the fact that the mogadishu sultanate controlled certain maldivian island’s and were spreading islam in 🇮🇳 like sa’id of mogadishu did, reaffirms that position‼️
Barbari means somali and abu barakat al-barbari in light of the knowledge that mogadishu/somali merchants & scholars are present all over the region spreading islam & trading reaffirms that it should be understood in that context.
3/8
Barbari doesn’t mean he came from berbera as one 🇺🇸 professor suggested and this article is claiming b/c that professor didn’t knew that the somali people were previously called al-barbar and barbari is even used by ibn batutta and it clearly refers to a people not a city👇
