Crooked in Canada

As most of the world already knows, things haven’t been good in Somalia for a very, very long time despite military assistance and aid offered and given to the people of Somalia via their government. How many decades has the bullshit that’s playing out in Somalia been playing out now and still nothing has changed?

Now the president of Somalia Abdullah Yusuf Ahmed has uttered something that the U.S and Canada (if not the entire free and democratic world) would have learned a long time ago but chose not to say too much about it out of fear of stirring the pot so to speak, that Somalia is being over-run by Islamist insurgents (back in the day they would have been called rebels and freedom fighters-lol) and that the current token government could completely collapse because of them.

In other words he is saying, “they are kicking the shit out of us and we need help.”

Lol, this Ahmed is a f**king tard as far as I’m concerned. Why tell the Islamist insurgents that they are winning, that they are in a position to topple the government. How f**king stupid of him was that? Why I bet the insurgents are planning a big celebration in anticipation of defeating Ahmed’s government.

Like I said, what a f**king tard he is, and how stupid of him.

Oh well.

Another thing that concerns me, and this reeks of stupidity and total ineptness on the part of anybody, including Ahmed who has led Somalia since the 70s is that Somalian leaders have been reluctant, and often sloughed off international help, or at the very least made it difficult for foreign aid to arrive. How dumb is that, and to what end. Baffling.

When it comes to military intervention from the international community; this despite the fact they need it, not to mention that Ahmed has said as recently as yesterday that he is losing the war against the insurgents, not that I think he is actually waging war against them to begin with. I think he’s sitting on his ass with his thumb up his ass while pretending to take on the Islamist insurgents, that he is just paying the world lip-service, if only to protect his cushy job and the luxuries that job provides him.  The people he is supposed to serve should feel 1/1,000,000th as lucky.

You know what, who the f**k cares anymore, I certainly don’t and I am tired of hearing about Somalia when the rest of the world really doesn’t have the balls to do anything about it anyway. They too f**king afraid of the Islamist community, afraid of upsetting the international Islamic community, which is exactly what is feeding the radical Islamists in Africa, Iraq, and Afghanistan, not to mention those little sleeper cells of Islamist extremists lurking in the shadows in various parts of the world.

The international community should say f**k the UN’s plan for Somalia, and get in there and take care of the problem themselves by any means necessary and without having to be invited. Of course that would mean that Somalia’s military would have to be targeted too since they are equally responsible for the murderous rampage that all sides of the conflict are responsible for.

Another oh well only this time I am adding, “What the f**k do I know about it?”

One could easily ask why anybody should continue to help Somalia when they can’t or won’t even help themselves, but at the end of the day I am just tired of hearing about the same shit from the same pile coming out of Somalia on a daily basis. I can’t believe that humanitarian groups and organisations (a few Canadians are over there helping out remember) aren’t more vocal about what they see happening with their own eyes (and believe me they are seeing a lot more than they are allowed to tell us otherwise he would be hearing from a lot more than the just the UN and African leaders as to the gravity of the situation.  Make sense to you?

I am not by any stretch of the imagination an expert on Somalia.

Since the 80s for sure, though it was 1990 when the shit finally hit the fan once Somalia was no longer strategically important to anybody thanks to the end of the Cold War, there has been no real credible and legitimate government, figuratively speaking of course. I really doubt today that other foreign governments really believe that the Somali leader is anything more than somebody’s peon, but one that benefits from the riches war creates for such leaders who are at the beckon call of tribal warlords who since the civil war broke out, have been largely responsible for the unrest and strife that has been seen in Somalia for many, many years now.

The Somali Civil War was the beginning of the end for Somalia, not that it wasn’t on the verge of anarchy before then, and while that war is referenced in today’s Crooked in Canada entry, it would make this blog entry a lot longer than it already is, so therefore any talk of the Somali civil war ends with this paragraph.

Bottom-line, there should be a huge international military presence in Somalia right now. It should include other African nations (more specifically Egypt), a few European and Asian countries, Canada, the UK, forces from South America, and of course Israel, Iran and maybe a few other Middle Eastern countries that have a capable military force. Take down the government, take down the warlords and shut down the Islamist insurgency.

Too do that the international community needs to send a couple hundred thousand troops, not to mention tanks, fighter-jets and array of sophisticated weaponry that already exists to take the motherf**kers out once and for all. No more of this “fair fight” shit like we are seeing in Afghanistan and Iraq on the part of the coalition weaponry we are seeing there. It makes for a drawn out war and the world economy can’t really afford to support three drawn-out wars that involve the al-Qaeda terrorist organization.

What I am calling for in Somalia would be the biggest military manoeuvre since the one the Yanks (with the help of coalition forces of course) made taking down the Taliban in Afghanistan and Saddam Hussein in Iraq. All I am saying is enough of the bullshit, and that the war on terrorism should include Somalia. How can anybody argue with that?

There is only one solution to what is going on in Somalia and it requires fierce international military intervention. It would be a brutal battle, very bloody, and a lot of coalition casualties, but the world has to do what it has to do when it comes to democracy and our freedoms, and to shut down those f**king religious fanatics who think they should be ruling the world.  What is so wrong with blowing the f**k out of people who would rather annihilate us than have us live amongst them or vice versa?  The world is a f**ked up place if we are going to continue to allow Islamist extremists to dictate to us how the world is going to be, and force their ideologies down our throats with murderous actions. They want a war, we should be taking it to them a lot more f**king harder to them than we are, but I digress.

The Somalian government should collapse, but not at the hands of the Islamist insurgents. It should collapse at the hands of an international coalition force, after all that same government and its officials are just as guilty of mass murder and corruption as the insurgents and the warlords are, and like the insurgents and warlords they need to answer for their crimes against there own people.

The fact that the Somalian president doesn’t want foreign military intervention in a time when they obvious need it should raise a few eyebrows too when it comes to the legitimacy of Ahmed and his ministers. Funny how he bitches, whines and complains about the help his regime (that’s what is government is as far as I’m concerned) needs, and the lack thereof, but when it comes to military assistance he’ll have no part of it.

Hmm, makes you wonder whose side his government is really on doesn’t it, what warlords he is snuggling up to, and which insurgency leader’s asses he is kissing? Sounds to me like maybe the international communities first priority should they decide in the very near future to ‘invade’ Somalia, is to topple Ahmed, and his regime. It’s a good place to start in Somalia.

You know what, f**k what the Somali and other African leaders, as well as the UN wants as it pertains to Somalia (wishful and unrealistic thinking by the way) and lets just go in the there and put an end to the bullshit that has been going on there for the past couple of decades thanks to Somalian leaders who have been a bigger problem to the stability of Somalia then they have been of any help. There hasn’t been one, not one Somalian leader and government he has led that have been able to get the job that needs to be done in Somalia done. Somebody argue that point with me.

There shouldn’t be anybody who can legitimately and with credibility argue with me that I am wrong when I say there has not been one Somalian leader who has been able to get control of, and manage the impoverished and war-ravaged African nation, not even in the slightest.

The proof of that lies in the past 25 years (I’m guessing at the number of years the trouble in Somalia has been going on, but in the early 80s there was an influx of Somalian refugees into Canada wasn’t there) and it is about time various foreign governments told the UN to f**k off and go pick fruit to feed the world’s starving instead of impeding the process needed to put Somalia on the right path, and its time for them to send in the troops to take out the Somalian regime leading the country, which is what the Ahmed government is as far as I am concerned.

While they are it, they should pop into Zimbabwe and take out that motherf**ker Robert Mugabe too. Africa would definitely be a better place without him.

It’s time that armed men and women supported with some heavy-duty military hardware went into Somalia and took care of business and cleaned up the mess that the UN has said for the past couple of decades it could clean up, but to date has not. Then when they are done there, head over to Sudan and take care of business there too.

It’s time to literally shut down those violent African nations that nobody really wants to do anything about, not even their own governments, and to do it with military might. Enough all f**king ready. Let’s get going with World War III, let’s get it over and done with instead of sitting around waiting for it too happen.

Have I mentioned in the past that if a third world war were to occur that it would likely begin in Africa? If I haven’t then Crooked in Canada is going on record to state that now.

Obviously the rest of Africa wouldn’t take too kindly to foreign troops landing on their continent and doing what other African countries haven’t had the balls to do, but who the f**k cares, enough is enough already, and besides it isn’t likely an international coalition force is going to face much of a challenge from African countries who have sat idly by for the past quarter century, perhaps even longer.

If the rest of Africa doesn’t like it, (in fact if the rest of world doesn’t like it) too f**king bad, unless of course somebody has a better idea, which by the way I doubt anybody has.

Sad but true, the only way to resolve what is going on in Somalia (and in Sudan too), is all out war. The world should be keeping a close eye on Kenya and the Congo region where things are pretty tense there too.

And what about Egyptian government officials, where the f**k do they stand in all this, and why haven’t we  heard much from them about what is going on the continent they share with some of the world’s poorest and war-ravaged countries, and what they believe needs to be done in Somalia and Sudan?

Why aren’t they more involved, and does their lack of ‘real involvement’ have something to do with cowardice or the fear of some Egyptian government officials that they will be discovered as being aiders and abettors and colluding with the enemy of the people in Somalia. The question is of course, who the Egyptian government sees as the enemy in Somalia, the Ahmed regime or the insurgents, both of whom are the people’s enemy, the starving and dying ones anyway.

That said I really don’t know what is going on in Somalia as far as religion and politics goes, but I am not blind and I am not stupid.

It has been about a quarter century since I first became aware of the turmoil in Somalia and I only learned about then because I worked with a few Somalian refugees in Quebec City in the fur industry (Maranda et Labrecque) when I was in my late teens. I saw what life in Somalia had done to them and I heard some of their stories (language barrier was a problem but I got the gist of what they were trying to say, as did many of my French speaking co-workers) and more than 25 years later I bet Somalian refugees who are arriving in Canada and other parts of the world today are still telling the same story.

Its time to go into Somalia and fix things and for that to happen the entire world has to be on the same page. What are the chances of that ever happening?
