Hassan Issa Is An Inexcusable politically Dead Leader
Some people like me with little knowledge of politics, might not have received their political education inside formal classrooms, but we have been trained under the sponsorship of Mr.Silanyo.
Because we have disciplined ourselves in the assignments of preparing the home – work and understanding the Silanyo monkey – business of political hiccups. We can’t judge people’s spiritual depth, love of Allah, and their ability to minister according to how much learning and degrees they have. If that perception is true; Hassan Isse wouldn’t have been a dead political leader by now. For instance. The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “ how is that, this man, Jesus, has learning, when he never studied in School .” So Jesus, answered them. “ My teaching is not mine, but his, who sent me.” When the spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for I will not speak on my own authority; but whatever I hear, I will speak, and God will declare to you the things that are to come. So the apostles ( Jesus Followers ) were unschooled ordinary men, but they spent years following Jesus. Then the Jewish religious authority saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men. They were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus. What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of the nationalist man imagined, how Mr.Silanyo is treating our heroes like abdirahman Aw Ali, Hassan Isse, Mohamed Hashi Elmi, Mohamoud Husein Omer Hashi, and so many others. You name it. Even he has no respect for the deceased ones who have sacrificed for the joy he is indulging right now. Believe me, the man has no heart. No human can predict or comprehend how stony hearted that man is! I am conscious and aware that I am throwing stones from a fragile house; and I am not as diligent as I should be in my studies of politics, but I was a follower of Mr.Silanyo for the last thirty years. Clog to clog for three decades. Mr.Silanyo, teaches justices to his companions in the War – Trench; only and only, when they bow and bend to their knees. Hassan, apart from classroom or library books; acquaintance and previous experience were enough guides to learn, how jerk Mr.Silanyo is. Practical experience is a good guide. You are old enough to know that revenge, is the dish best served cold, by Mr.Silanyo. I am not a big fan of illustration. It is not always a one – to – one correspondence between political scholar like you , and a dummy old man like me with earthly – wisdom – training obtained from Mr.Silanyo School of politics. But the Immam of my Mosque Sheikh Adan Siro never attended seminary, but he worked most his life for a true God, and handles the scriptures better than the other men who had all the formal training. I have been very blessed being in his Mosque. In fact, one of the reasons my wife and I have chosen his Mosque. Because this Immam routinely enlightened me to things I didn’t know about Mr.Silanyo. That is why I am always grateful to his iron – guts, true preaching, and all the teachings of my faith. He revealed and inspired me to the evidence of the ill –will and the deceiving, and false political hiccups of Mr.Silanyo.
All the other Immams in Hargeisa, they give a blind eye to his evil – deeds. Mr. Hassan, you are an inexcusable politically dead leader. you have lost your golden key. How many times I have told you; never count your chickens before they hatch. You have accepted a gifted horse in the mouth. Once you go black, you never go back. You are now a cat in gloves, and you can catch no mice. According to my poor perception. You and Faysal Ali Warabe are dead horses. Hassan, you made me to be sceptical that education and knowledge is a power. All is fair in love, war, and politics. Hassan, success has many fathers, failure is an orphan. Starting from today, you an orphan in politics. You have to resign politics while you are with a white collar. Other days, other ways. Some day you get the bear, other day the bear gets you. Shoemakers children go barefooted. That is the way the ball bounces. Every day is a school day. But serious Somalilanders keep a respect for you, and many others of your colleagues. Bear in mind that cheaters will never prosper. Mr.Silanyo, you are what you eat. We know that you believe that the hand that breaks the cradle is the hand that rules the World. Speak softly and carry the big stick. You are a camel designed as a horse, by a committee. Mr.Silanyo, the game is not over till the other two fat, strong lions sings, and roars. Tomorrow, is another day. In the dish menu, one day is an onion, one day is honey. Who laughs last, laughs better.
Knowledge and education is not itself power, although it is the magnetic field of power. Ignorance and opacity collude or compete with it in mobilizing the flows of energy, desire, goods, and persons. If Mr.Hanad knows English language, but Mr.Herse lacks French language, it is the urbane Mr.Hanad who must negotiate in an acquired tongue. The ignorant Mr.Herse must dilate in his native Somali language. My intimate and ultimate purpose is to prove that our ethics and scepticism as the Suni population in the central regions of Somaliland are being misconstrued and misrepresented as selfish blinkered naivete. I have realized lately that one of the stereotypes of us, is as so blinkered and too much self – obsessed that we can’t even comprehend why other tribes in Somaliland have concerns and complaining about injustices. It practically seems as if the basis of all our objectives are. My kids are all right; to hell with the others. This implication would be that we are too stupid and naïve to see what our stubbornness is costing others to be irritated and get hesitated about a hidden ill – intention in a secret agenda of the Suni motivation for the near future. The fact is that we must negotiate in a friendly atmosphere ready for compromise and a just, honest mood of a fair power – sharing and sincere dialogue from heart to heart. If we are truly serious about the sovereignty, and Independence of Somaliland. If our intention is a temporary truce fire, and waiting the last call for the done deal of the Dahabshiil Ccperation, from Mogadishu. Let the caravan go and the dogs continue barking. It is a contempt to justices by giving a mile to the Suni in the central regions, and giving an inch to the Shia in the east and the Wahabists in the west. I hate to say I told you, but I did.
