Somali President claims: Somaliland agreed to take Gazans for Israeli recognition
Arutz Sheva ^ | 1/1/26

Posted on 12/31/2025 11:26:34 PM PST by Eleutheria5

Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud claimed in an interview with Al Jazeera on Wednesday that he has intelligence indicating Somaliland agreed to accept displaced Gazans in exchange for Israeli recognition.

According to the president, intelligence sources also suggest that Somaliland has agreed to allow the establishment of an Israeli military base on its territory and to join the Abraham Accords, the normalization agreements between Israel and Arab states. He added that there had already been “some Israeli presence” in Somaliland in the past.

Mohamud argued that Israel’s recognition of Somaliland was intended to destabilize Somalia and the region. He noted that the recognition came at a time when Somalia was attempting to unite the country peacefully, and he accused Israel of exporting the conflict in the Gaza Strip to Somalia.

"Mohamud argued that Israel’s recognition of Somaliland was intended to destabilize Somalia and the region. He noted that the recognition came at a time when Somalia was attempting to unite the country peacefully..."

He said it with a straight face.

Destabilize Somalia? How is it possible to make it more unstable? If Somalia fell under the influence of Somaliland it would only become MORE stable. And we can’t have that, can we?

According to the President of Somalia, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, Somali intelligence indicates that Somaliland has agreed to accept displaced Gazans as one of three conditions in exchange for Israeli recognition.

However, Somaliland officials have denied that discussions about accepting Palestinians took place.

Somali Intelligence Claims President Mohamud stated in an interview with Al Jazeera and other outlets that, based on intelligence reports, Somaliland accepted three conditions from Israel:
<><>the resettlement of Palestinians from Gaza,
<><>the establishment of an Israeli military base on the coast of the Gulf of Aden,
<><>and Somaliland joining the Abraham Accords.

He further accused Israel of attempting to “export its problem in Gaza” to the Horn of Africa.

Reports from earlier in 2025 indicated that the U.S. and Israel had approached Somaliland, among other nations, about accepting Gazans, but Somaliland officials said at the time that no such discussions had occurred. In their recent statements following the Israeli recognition, neither Israel nor Somaliland addressed the idea.

The claims have been a major point of contention. Egypt and other Arab and Muslim countries have condemned any plans for the forced displacement of Palestinians outside their land. The League of Arab States and the African Union also raised concerns that the recognition could facilitate the forced relocation of Palestinians.

Current Status: Israel recently became the first UN member state to officially recognize Somaliland as an independent state. The official statements from both parties focused on establishing diplomatic relations and cooperation in various fields, with Somaliland expressing its intent to join the Abraham Accords.

In summary, the claim that Somaliland has agreed to accept displaced Gazans in exchange for Israeli recognition stems from the President of Somalia’s intelligence sources, but it is a claim that Somaliland officials have publicly denied.

We need to get in on the action. Deport the ones here now that they have a place to go. You can guess which Somalia they’ll choose. Just look at it on a map. Mogadishu is 1000 miles away by car-700 if driving through Ethiopia-it’s leave us alone distance. Then look at the strategic location along the Gulf of Aden. Hard to believe Palestinians would offer anything but trouble so there is no indication of how many they’ll take. Then there’s the believability of the article-great if true.

Nobody in their right mind (indeed, nobody at all— even the nut cases in the Islamic world) wants the fakestinians— too dangerous.

But there must be a place if they’re to be saved from self- destruction.

IMO, President Trump’s plan for an Indonesian island is still the best idea of all. Indo has over 17,000 islands. It’s a Moslem- conquered and controlled country. And monitoring an island will be effective, efficient, and economical — to make SURE that the bloodthirsty savages can never ever again attack and slaughter any civilized human beings anywhere on earth.

The Gazans’ standard of living and quality of life would be drastically improved by living in Somaliland, too. If that really is the deal with Somaliland, it’s a good deal. But that’s just what the head Somali warlord says it is, and his IQ is pretty low.

The UNHCR took charge of a few Palestinian fifth-generation refugees, I think from Syria, and relocated them to Chile, and apparently they were extremely happy and gainfully employed. UNRWA is a big part of the problem. They push for right of return uber alles.

Not even (Haiti of the Middle East) Somalia really wants the Palestinians! I detect a lot of hemming and hawing.

I dunno. I doubt that even Somalilanders would be stupid enough to take in Palestinians.

Somalia doesn’t want Fakestinians, correct!

Somaliland however appears (from some reports) willing to take them (a big mistake for Somaliland but Somaliland has been fighting Somalia and others for years successfully so apparently believes it can control, contain the terrorists?)
we will see

Indonesian island! Indonesian island! The best, safest plan...hoping against hope that PDJT can achieve his Indo island plan and soon! (I haven’t seen any very-recent articles about it....)

they will get their Armageddon if they can achieve it

Israel and prayerfully also America just need to avoid it (Let the Nazis have their final big slaughter elsewhere.. maybe there’s a Megiddon somewhere in Asia or Africa or South America? smiles smiles smiles)
