– Ethiopia is to this day training and arming the different faction of Somali clans, while \u00a0\u00a0Eritrea is armed and trained Alshabab.<\/em><\/p>\nOnce again \u00a0Ethiopian dictator declared that his \u00a0troops would only be deployed for a brief period to fight Alshabab \u00a0militants. \u00a0Later is \u00a0also \u00a0affronting\u00a011,000 strong African Union \u00a0(AMISOM) forces \u00a0and\u00a0Kenyans \u00a0fighting to\u00a0controlled\u00a0the Azania corner oil rich \u00a0Juba land as a \u201cbuffer zone”. .<\/p>\n
This new 180 degree turn of the \u00a0Ethiopian dictator \u00a0stopping his sudden evacuation was\u00a0justified\u00a0in the\u00a0following\u00a0propaganda\u00a0:-<\/p>\n
“It (Ethiopia) will remain (in Somalia) until the Transitional Government (of Somalia) has adequately organized itself to fend off any attack from hostile forces,” \u00a0“There is no current plan to evacuate from Somalia until such time that a proper Somali constitution is ratified by all parties to the conflict, and until the constituent assembly will ratify the constitution,”<\/p>\n
The new million dollars of US aid recently granted may be forced him to stay since he got a new indirectly mandate.<\/p>\n
Last June Somalia’s feuding leaders agreed to extend the mandate of a transitional government for a year rather than hold elections, a move sought by Uganda which has peacekeepers stationed in the anarchic state.<\/p>\n
The mandate for Somalia’s latest administration was meant to expire in August 2011 but President Sheikh Sharif Ahmed, a former Islamist rebel leader, and speaker Sharif Hassan Sheikh Aden, who covets the top job, had been at loggerheads over what should happen then, and agreed to defer elections.<\/p>\n
Alshabab seems strategically \u00a0have surrendered territory in Mogadishu and across central and southern Somalia in the past few months weekend by AMISON forces where the Eritrean support is no more reaching crippled with sanction of 2008 and December 2011<\/p>\n
AU and Somali government troops seem to secure little aid corridor between Mogadishu and a former rebel stronghold close to the capital. By the end of the month, Somali and Kenyan forces had captured the rebel stronghold and strategic town of Afmadow; but never able to capture the capital of Alshabab Kismayu.<\/p>\n
Seizing Afmadow was considered a crucial step in the Kenyan drive towards the southern port city of Kismayu, the hub of al Shabab operations, about 120 km (75 miles)\u00a0away.
