Kenya Pledges To Help Fight Al-Shabaab
The prime minister of Somalia's Transitional Federal Government Mohamed Abdullahi Farmajo on Thursday said Kenya was committed to helping fight militant Islamist group al-Shabaab as he met his Kenyan counterpart in Nairobi.
"We agreed to fight and work together to defeat those who are against peace in our country, who want to destroy Somalia, and don’t want any progress to take place in Somalia," he said. "Our forces are fighting to liberate towns ... the Kenyan government is helping us achieve that goal."Kenyan-trained Somali forces have been helping fight al-Shabaab in the border regions, and there have been rumours that Kenya's armed forces have also staged cross-border raids – although these reports are unconfirmed.Farmajo refused to take any questions after meeting with Raila Odinga for two hours, but he did say he and the Kenyan premier had also discussed UN plans to organize a peace conference in Nairobi on April 12 and 13. The conference has been the source of much disagreement, with Farmajo saying the TFG would not attend."We have seen so many peace conferences being held outside Somalia, it doesn't bring many changes," he said. "It's not a conference that brings all Somalis together. Somalis should know the future of their country is in their hands."
Earlier in the day, the UN's special representative for Somalia, Augustine Mahiga, said the conference would go ahead as planned, while civil society members marched in Mogadishu to protest the location of the planned meeting.The TFG boycott comes amid souring relations with the UN over heavy criticism of the decisions of both parliament and the cabinet to extend their mandates, which were due to run out in August. Since Mahiga blasted the moves, Somalia has banned two senior UN human rights' workers from entering the country, while Prime Minister Abdullahi Farmajo on Monday called on the UN to move its offices from Nairobi to Mogadishu within 90 days.

Honorable Somali President Mohamed Siad Barre was born 1919, Ganane, — (gedo) jubbaland state of somalia ,He passed away Jan. 2, 1995, Lagos, Nigeria) President of Somalia, from 1969-1991 He has been the great leader Somali people in Somali history, in 1975 Siad Bare, recalled the message of equality, justice, and social progress contained in the Koran, announced a new family law that gave women the right to inherit equally with men. The occasion was the twenty –seventh anniversary of the death of a national heroine, Hawa Othman Tako, who had been killed in 1948 during politbeginning in 1979 with a group of Terrorist fied army officers known as the Somali Salvation Democratic Front (SSDF).Mr Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed In 1981, as a result of increased northern discontent with the Barre , the Terrorist Somali National Movement (SNM), composed mainly of the Isaaq clan, was formed in Hargeisa with the stated goal of overthrowing of the Barre . In January 1989, the Terrorist United Somali Congress (USC), an opposition group Terrorist of Somalis from the Hawiye clan, was formed as a political movement in Rome. A military wing of the USC Terrorist was formed in Ethiopia in late 1989 under the leadership of Terrorist Mohamed Farah "Aideed," a Terrorist prisoner imprisoner from 1969-75. Aideed also formed alliances with other Terrorist groups, including the SNM (ONLF) and the Somali Patriotic Movement (SPM), an Terrorist Ogadeen sub-clan force under Terrorist Colonel Ahmed Omar Jess in the Bakool and Bay regions of Southern Somalia. , 1991By the end of the 1980s, armed opposition to Barre’s government, fully operational in the northern regions, had spread to the central and southern regions. Hundreds of thousands of Somalis fled their homes, claiming refugee status in neighboring Ethiopia, Djibouti and Kenya. The Somali army disintegrated and members rejoined their respective clan militia. Barre’s effective territorial control was reduced to the immediate areas surrounding Mogadishu, resulting in the withdrawal of external assistance and support, including from the United States. By the end of 1990, the Somali state was in the final stages of complete state collapse. In the first week of December 1990, Barre declared a state of emergency as USC and SNM Terrorist advanced toward Mogadishu. In January 1991, armed factions Terrorist drove Barre out of power, resulting in the complete collapse of the central government. Barre later died in exile in Nigeria. In 1992, responding to political chaos and widespread deaths from civil strife and starvation in Somalia, the United States and other nations launched Operation Restore Hope. Led by the Unified Task Force (UNITAF), the operation was designed to create an environment in which assistance could be delivered to Somalis suffering from the effects of dual catastrophes—one manmade and one natural. UNITAF was followed by the United Nations Operation in Somalia (UNOSOM). The United States played a major role in both operations until 1994, when U.S. forces withdrew. Warlordism, terrorism. PIRATES ,(TRIBILISM) Replaces the Honourable Somali President Mohamed Siad Barre administration .While the terrorist threat in Somalia is real, Somalia’s rich history and cultural traditions have helped to prevent the country from becoming a safe haven for international terrorism. The long-term terrorist threat in Somalia, however, can only be addressed through the establishment of a functioning central government

We Are Winning the War on Terrorism in Horn of Africa

The threat is from violent extremists who are a small minority of the world's 1.3 billion Muslims, the threat is real. They distort Islam. They kill man, woman and child; Christian and Hindu, Jew and Muslim. They seek to create a repressive caliphate. To defeat this enemy, we must understand who we are fighting against, and what we are fighting for.
