Sorry for short post but habs irl
I've been watching some travel vlogs and other videos on Somalia / Somalialand. I'm starting to think that the reason it is a "shit hole country" is because of the intel agencies (shocker).
Look into the Somalia civil war (1991-present)
The 1960's Somalia habbenings
The people there seem very sweet and nice barring the obvious crabs in a bucket mentality which naturally arises in impoverished war-torn regions.
I don't think I'll be able to look at this whole issue the same now. Need to look deeper later. But it seems the template has been:
- intel agencies destabilize a fledgling region
- NGOs and 'aid agencies' then shuffle their refugees around to destabilize the more established nations
Same script different people
I'm sure you're right, but unfortunately the knowledge doesn't change the problems we have today.
Our taxes have been funding our destruction for decades, often destroying others along the way. No better time to fix it than now.
