Somaliland Option Today

By Saeed Osman, London, UK
Today the dictator Rayale has been called by Miles Zenawi to finish off whatever remains about Somaliland and our beloved country. We all remember annexing Sool was the first step of his grand ambition to merge Somaliland with the Somalia. The meeting between Rayaale and Miles top agenda will be to hand over the power to the Col Abdillahi Yusuf whether we like it or not full stop. At times like this, one would expect a so-called democratic elected government to adhere the nation constitution, but that is not on in the Rayaale dictionary. On the other hand, we don’t see any questions from our side as Somali Landers as to why the Rayaale and his beloved Finance Minster are going to Ethiopia at all, no body seem to be bothered about this trip to which all Somaliland people agree that the trip is to finalize the deal. In these new realities, I believe we should all be concerned about it, and we should unite our hearts and minds to reach for an effective solution to our problems that seem to me and to all will never end unless to choose to take action.
Today, all of our problems are the reminiscence of that mistakes made yesterday by our leaders. When the former president Egal passed away, the leaders ignored the constitution, and instead choose to crown a dictator with a war crime history that could have been a good indicator of the Rayale future behavior. Those were in position of authority at the time have ignored all the facts that were available to them, including the mass killings of Berbera rounded innocent people executed by the Rayale himself in 1988 when he was running the notorious NSS.
But lets put the Rayale onto the prospective before we blame him for his bravery action of destroying Somaliland. Its fact, Rayaale was never his own man before when he was a vice president or later and the aftermath of Egal’s death where he was crowned by Somali Landers in all walk of life simply because purely of his tribe and I challenge anyone to suggest otherwise. At the time a lot of people were wondering what he has done for the nation to deserve this massive boost of crowning him as president instead of sending him to international war criminal courts followed by a long sentencing if not hanging him to death. Rayaale was given an amnesty by those people he was savaging them day in day out when he was senior rank of the NSS during our struggle. Today Rayaale is leading us, and we the one who provided him with ammunition to imprison some of us and to starve the rest and unless we to end that, Rayaale will continue his original message that doesn’t need political scientist to work out.
I don’t know how Somaliland reached to this desperate point, but what is more important for us today is to understand what this visit would mean to Somaliland and also for Rayaale and Ethiopia. I believe, we should be asking now as to why and how a president calling himself as elected leader will take such a decision without consulting the elected parliament and also undermining all the political parties that are the legitimate choice of the nation. In the eyes of Rayaale and thugs around him, their views worth nothing when making important decisions like this one of selling Somaliland to foreign nation. I understand for some people like Mr. Tani it’s a matter of normal routine exercise for the government and part of the democracy in his view. But the unanswered question is where the democracy and the very reason the Rayaale was elected as some claim? Though the majority of Somaliland nationals have a different views to that tiny minority that only care to pursuit their personal interest rather than the national interest. But get this right, the 50 masteries and abandoning Sool was the first clue and indication Rayaale have unveiled to the public to study the reaction of the nation, but we accepted as a normal procedure and therefore, HE realized nothing would happen if he step up with his campaign of destruction of the country for the expenses of the enemy. I know clearly why the people of Somaliland fought the long war with faqashes, but mind you, the clique ‘s around Rayaale have tried to confuse and divert the ordinary people attention just to make it like nothing happen in the past. I think it’s an insult to nation intellect if anyone to assume people have built bigger houses and will not take the arm they couldn’t be more wrong. I must say clearly that is rubbish and people of Somaliland are much braver than that and will never surrounded to the enemy.
The majority of Somaliland people today agree that we have a limited remit in order to survive, and unless we actively and swiftly take these measures, our chances to survive as sovereign state is shrinking by the seconds and that is because its our choice, no body could ever imposed Rayaale on us, unless we were happy to have him on board, and it was partially mixed choice and negligence by Somali Landers so lets not complain about our actions as it would not solve anything until either the butcher and puppet Abdilahi Yusuf re-capture Somaliland through the Ethiopian forces and its now feasible than any other times in the past.
The alternative is to empower our poor people to take law onto their own hands simply as there's no point in looking and hopping a miracle will happen when we know it will not and will never unless action is taken. Dear brothers and sisters there’s a hadith that said: (RSW) said: (if you see wrongs, then try to change by force, If you couldn’t, then speak about it and try to change through education, if that didn’t work, then reject that in your heart and that is the weakest Iman). Anyone who’s in doubt I ask you to run small sampling on your own, and you will find the result conclusive and significant regardless the method you use. Now my question is what is the point of running samples when we are certain that for 100%, the Murderer Rayaale is selling the nations assets and scrapes that even dictator Siyad Barrie never attempted to do it with the assistance and alliance of those thugs around him. What is point of setting a sampling when we know we paid him a salary that exceeds (1million us dollars) just to destroy our nation and on the other hand the majority of the nation is starving to the point of hunger and starvation. What is point of making sampling dear Somaliland when we know and evidence is there that the people are dying for lack of medicines when the man who caused most of their injuries is leading them and enjoying the taxed they paid in lavish life style and (1million us dollar mansion in Cairo). When you see all those misery in every corner of Somaliland, you will begin asking your selves was it worth to fight Siyad Barrie at all, specially we know the next butcher Abdilahi Yusuf is round the corner and preparing to move in to govern what was known then the whole Somalia provided continuous support by the American-Ethiopian alliance to fight the poorly equipped the Maxakim Al Islamiya, followed by Somaliland beyond any doubts.
Final word. Next constitution shall never allow such butchers, collaborators with the enemy, traitors and thugs just like those members of the Rayaale administration to be a part of Somaliland government, and that can only happen if our consciousnesses are clear as citizens of this country Somaliland. Love me or loathe me this is the reality of Somaliland today, we well our chances very slim and the LATE TRAIN has already passed Somaliland because of our disastrous choice in the past we paying a heavy price. Moreover, the picture is bleak and getting darker by the minutes and I must say ITS all over NOW UNLESS WE CHOOSE TO ARM OURSELVES. Now we have the choice to fight until we liberate our country from these ill thugs and bloodsuckers or we can alternative accept to THE FORTHCOMING Col Abdillahi Yusuf grand agenda to enrich these criminals, thugs, and mass killers and above traitors, the choice is ours. I must say, this time that we don’t need another SOPRI whose ambitions are just to capture headlines and seeking fame if I may say so. But we need action followed by action, and I see no rationale in seeking dialogue because Rayaale doesn’t understand that language let alone democracy, and if so FORCE should be the alternative.
