Somalia's contribution to the unsettled region? Renewed piracy! Mogadishu can have all the summits it wants-with Egypt, Eritrea, etc. but it is incapable of controlling its own waters (or territory)! No piracy from Somaliland. Which is the sovereign state?

For 30 years, global opportunities , trainings, and summits have often referred to “Sub-Saharan Africa.” My question is: where is Somali youth in this opportunities.

True inclusion means no country and no young person is left behind.

#Somalia’s President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud issued an inflammatory statement attacking the State of #Israel, saying that “recognition from Israel — the worst place in the world — is no solution,” and claiming that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is internationally isolated.
The remarks were condemned as irresponsible, diplomatically damaging, and fueling hate-driven rhetoric amid rising regional tensions.

Somalia’s UN ambassador reportedly connected to Ohio healthcare company convicted of Medicaid fraud.

Sources note he “served as UN Security Council president and has links to a Cincinnati service.”

$50+ BILLION spent on Somalia since 1991.
No security. No accountability. No nationwide control.

Somaliland rebuilt itself with almost no aid — and succeeded.

At what point does the world admit the model has failed?

[American Jewish Congress @AJCongress]

Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar landed today in Somaliland’s capital, an unprecedented diplomatic step following Israel’s recognition of Somaliland.

This is a Muslim-majority society that chose stability, defeated ISIS-linked elements, and openly celebrated ties with #Israel in its capital’s downtown.

Should we in the United States consider recognizing Somaliland?

For the strategic case, read, ‘Somaliland is a functioning state. Treat it that way’: https://t.co/b5Zowm8g2D
