Farmaajo, Yassin move ahead with plan to control Somalia

Somalia is slowly, but surely, sliding into civil war, something the Islamist Movements’ Gate warned against several times in its reports in the past.

This war is masterminded by Qatar’s man in Somalia and the former correspondent of the Qatari news channel al-Jazeera, Fahd Yassin, who heads the Somali National Security Agency.

Yassin pulls all strings from behind the curtain as far as the row over the belated elections in Somalia is concerned.

He works to give Somali President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmaajo, whose presidential term came to an end in February, more time in the presidency.

Farmaajo is apparently trying to mimic the model of his uncle, Siad Barre, who ruled Somalia with iron and fire from 1969 to 1991.

Libyan model

Farmaajo and Yassin want to create an internal crisis in Somalia, one that forces the Somalia people succumb to their desire to control the country at the end of the day.

In this, they are trying to copy the model of Libya which was controlled by the Muslim Brotherhood after the elections in 2014.

The Brotherhood turned against the elections and enlisted help from militias funded by Turkey and Qatar to control Libyan capital Tripoli.

Libyans were caught in the middle of these developments. The same model is being emulated in Somalia. Qatar and Turkey are the driving forces in the eastern African country too.

Intelligence agencies

Yassin has purged Somali security agencies and the intelligence agency of all talents. He fought against patriotic security leaders and kicked them all out for the sake of alternatives with affiliations to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Yassin sacked 200 intelligence officers and replaced them with members of the Muslim Brotherhood and people who have loyalty to the Qatari regime.
