🚨 BREAKING: Trump describes Somaliland as “a totally different country” and urges an immediate name change to distinguish it from Somalia. “I think they should change the name immediately.” A powerful statement reinforcing what Somalilanders have long maintained: Somaliland has its own identity, its own people and its own future. GUUL SOMALILAND! 💚🤍❤️

Opinion: Recognition of Somaliland and a strategic alliance with Israel to access its battle-tested military technology have become vital requirements for Ethiopia's national security. Written by: @AlexWinston89, @TinaGhazimorad jpost.com/opinion/article-91…

Ethiopia warns that recognizing Somaliland could strengthen Al-Shabaab, but Somaliland officials reject the security concerns, arguing recognition would instead bolster regional stability and give Ethiopia strategic access to the sea.

Somaliland was the Northern British protectorate that joined with the Southern Italian Somaliland after they both gained independence in 1960 to form the Somali Republic. It also shows Aden, the city in Yemen taken by British forces in 1839 secure a coaling station and naval base for ships traveling to India. The area that was British Somaliland declared independence from Somalia in 1991 after the fall of the Barre regime. It calls itself Somaliland, but the UN hasn’t recognized it and considers it an autonomous region of Somalia.

While Somalia sinks under floods, starves from famine, and gets butchered by terrorists, the men in its parliament are busy arguing to keep mutilating little girls genitals. 😳🇸🇴

Ethiopian troops are deployed in Somalia’s Bay region to keep Al-Shabaab out. Yet Hassan Yaqub Ali, one of the group’s most senior commanders, has reportedly been seen on the front line in Diinsoor, right in Ethiopia’s area of responsibility. redseaaxis.com/news/ethiopia…

Israel and Somaliland are beginning to build an economic bridge. In Faith & Freedom News, Khurram Ali Raza, chair of the Abrahamic Movement Pakistan, has published a full account of the evening we hosted, Jews and Arabs together, in a yard in Bat Hefer for the Abrahamic Movement's Somaliland delegation, as part of "Building a Shared Future." Jews and Somalilanders sat in one circle, beneath the movement's flag. But what the piece adds is what came after that evening: "The Israel–Somaliland connection has begun moving beyond symbolism. The Abrahamic Movement and the Israel–Somaliland Friendship Association have announced efforts to establish business-development infrastructure between the two communities, including representatives responsible for economic cooperation." Raza also quotes what I said that evening about the next step, a shared Abrahamic identity: "not one that erases national, religious, or cultural differences, but one that gives people a wider circle of belonging." And in the session on the history of the Isaaq people and the atrocities of the Siad Barre dictatorship in the late 1980s, I said that peacebuilding "must begin with listening to the experiences of communities that have suffered." This is where an evening like that is measured. Not by how moving it was, but by what gets built after it. Friendship between peoples is born in listening. It takes root when real partnerships, in work and in trade, grow around it. Link to the full article in the comments.

SOMALILAND FEATURED ON REGIONAL ALLIANCES MAP IN NETANYAHU PRESENTATION A map displayed during Benjamin Netanyahu’s security presentation identifies Somaliland separately from Somalia and places it among territories considered friendly by Israel and the United Arab Emirates. The graphic, bearing the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung logo, outlines competing geopolitical alignments across the Middle East and the Horn of Africa. Somaliland’s inclusion highlights its strategic relevance along the Gulf of Aden, near the entrance to the Red Sea, and its potential role in regional trade and security cooperation.

FLASHBACK: In December, we interviewed a Somaliland activist who offered perspective on Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and Somali fraud. Sonia wants Minnesotans to understand the cultural similarities and differences between the Republic of Somaliland and Somalia, and how this is playing out in Minnesota… "She's pointing fingers, calling everybody racist and Islamophobe. To me, Ilhan Omar is a fraud, and I hope justice knocks on her door very soon," she said of Omar back then. alphanews.org/exclusive-soma…

We need to know more about why the U.S. military trained this guy just before and just after he committed war crimes in Somalia.
Please read this story of a Somali colonel who worked for Barre’s regime like Ilhan Omar’s father, and tell me if you think something is insanely wrong about this whole affair: Yusuf Abdi Ali, aka Colonel Tukeh was brought to the U.S. for training in 1986 and 1990. He was in the U.S. receiving Air Force training at Keesler Air Force Base in Mississippi when Barre’s regime fell, after which he sought asylum in Canada. A 1992 CBC documentary exposed the allegations against him, and Canada deported him in 1992 for serious human rights abuses. He then entered the U.S., but the U.S. began deportation proceedings, so he voluntarily left the country in 1994. In December 1996 he re-entered the U.S. on a visa based on his marriage to a Somali woman who had become a U.S. citizen. The Immigration and Naturalization Service arrested him in the Virginia suburbs in 1998, accusing him of lying on asylum and permanent-residency applications by denying participation in genocidal acts. Officials said evidence indicated he had been directly involved in incidents that led to the deaths of thousands. He ultimately obtained permanent residency and remained in the U.S. but no details are available on why he was allowed to remain. The Center for Justice and Accountability filed a civil suit against him in 2004 and it was litigated in EDVA. He lived openly in the Alexandria area, worked as a security guard at Dulles Airport, and later drove for Uber/Lyft. In 2006 his wife, Intisar Khalif Farah, was convicted of lying on her naturalization forms claiming she was from the Isaaq clan, the same clan her husband was accused of committing war crimes against. She served only a month in prison and remains in the U.S. today, as far as records show. In May 2019, after much delay, the 2004 case ended when a federal jury in Alexandria, Virginia, found Ali liable for torture under the Torture Victim Protection Act. The jury awarded the torture victim $500,000, which was never paid. In 2020 the Human Rights Violations and War Crimes Center formally requested that HSI Washington, D.C., open an investigation. Arrest followed in November 2022; an immigration judge ordered removal in February 2024; deportation occurred in December 2024. Why did Biden and Mayorkas finally deport this criminal right after Trump won in 2024???
