By Osman Ali Hassan The political moment in which Somalis in the United States became targets of rhetorical degradation, immigration intimidation, and collective suspicion under the Trump administration was not accidental, temporary, or disconnected from broader geopolitical maneuvering. Rather, it formed part of a coordinated atmosphere of fear—carefully cultivated through language, enforcement, and foreign policy signaling—designed to weaken Somali confidence both in the diaspora and in the Horn of Africa itself. When Donald Trump’s crude “garbage” rhetoric toward Somalia is examined alongside aggressive ICE operations across U.S. states such as Minnesota, Ohio, Washington, and California, and then placed next to the foggy, externally promoted idea of Somaliland’s recognition through Israel, a coherent pattern emerges. The objective was not justice, law enforcement, or diplomatic clarity. The end game was fear, hopelessness, and political submission. Trump’s language toward Somalia was not merely offensive speech. It functioned as political framing. To describe a...

By Dayib Sh. Ahmed Israel’s decision to recognize Somaliland should not be dismissed as just a suicidal diplomatic act. This move fits squarely within a broader geopolitical pattern aimed at weakening Muslim-majority states by encouraging fragmentation and reshaping regional balances of power.  Somalia, long vulnerable yet geopolitically vital, has now become a focal point of this long-range strategy. The country is not merely a fragile state but an entirely Muslim nation located at one of the most strategic maritime chokepoints. Any attempt to legitimize Somaliland’s secession cannot be understood as a reflection of domestic squabbles but a foreign-driven intervention designed to reengineer political realities in the Horn of Africa to serve external interests. Left unchallenged, this intervention risks pushing Somalia down a path eerily reminiscent of Sudan’s tragic unraveling. In this scenario, the greatest victims are not political elites or foreign interest groups but the Somali people themselves. History offers...

By Abdullahi A. Nor Somaliland is constitutionally part of the Federal Republic of Somalia. Yet more than three decades after the collapse of the Somali state, the unresolved question of Somaliland has returned with renewed force—this time carrying the unmistakable risk of pushing not only Somalia, but Somaliland itself, toward comprehensive collapse. When the Somali central government disintegrated in 1991, a unilateral declaration of secession was announced in May of that year in the northern city of Burao. The declaration was led by the Somali National Movement (SNM), a rebel group whose leadership and constituency were overwhelmingly drawn from a single clan—the Isaaq. The announcement was made without consultation with other communities inhabiting the same territory, including the Warsangeli, Dhulbahante, Gadabuursi, and Ciise. These exclusions were not incidental. They laid the foundations for a political project built on contestation rather than consensus. Over time, resistance hardened. The Northern Harti (...

By Abdinoor Ibrahim Noor An Appeal to the Federal Government, Federal Member States, Opposition Alliances, and All Political and Public Figures of the Federal Republic of Somalia. The Federal Republic of Somalia stands at a critical juncture in its modern history. The recent geopolitical maneuvers, including the potential recognition of the Somaliland region by external actors, represent more than a diplomatic challenge; they constitute an existential test of Somali statehood. In this hour of profound uncertainty, the most formidable defense against external encroachment is not found in foreign alliances or military hardware, but in the restoration of an unbreakable national unity. The Peril of Fragmentation in a Realignment of Power The international system is witnessing a fundamental realignment of regional power dynamics, where the principle of territorial integrity is increasingly being tested by strategic interests. The possibility of external actors signaling a shift in policy towards the region suggests a...

The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) will convene on Monday for an emergency session to discuss Israel’s recognition of Somaliland. The session was requested by Somalia, which was one of the 21 African, Arab and Islamic countries that condemned Israel’s move. “Israel will act responsibly and we will continue to cooperate with partners who contribute to regional stability,” Israel’s Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon wrote on social media, vowing that Israel “will not shy away from political discussions.” In a message by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released when he announced the recognition, he emphasized that the declaration was made “in the spirit of the Abraham Accords,” signed at the initiative of U.S. President Donald Trump. Netanyahu also said that Israel would seek immediate cooperation with Somaliland in agriculture, health, technology, and the economy. In a statement, he congratulated Somaliland’s president, Abdirahman Mohamed Abdullahi, praised his leadership and commitment to peace, and...
