US Policy in Somalia: She gets it wrong again
(MoFA)- Articles in Foreign Policy magazine carry a certain cachet. The magazine believes, no doubt correctly, that it has influence on Congressional deliberations and on administration policy makers. Inevitably there will be interest with an article beginning “The US Government needs to change its Somalia policy – and fast” (“In the Quick sands of Somalia”, Bronwyn Bruton, Foreign Affairs Vol.88 no.6 November/December 2009). Interest becomes concern, however, when the argument is based on serious distortions and numerous inaccuracies.

News & Analysis
Dr Yacob during his remorseful interview with reporter said the old and tired leaders of the opposition should yield power to the young and thoughtful. We wonder if he was thinking of EDP leaders who seem to be youthful and are for sure thoughtful. Old and tired does not realy hold water considering the clarity of purpose our elder president Girma W. Ghiorghis is demonstrating. At one time Dr Yacob and Ato Ledetu were in the same camp but the political savy Ledetu shunned Kinijit's destructive method of struggle very early thus joined the parliament. Dr Yacob seems to regret it and alas has finally surrender to peace and took a proactive action and disassoicated himself from Medrek.
