The people on the ground in Somalia understand what Gaas and some of the corrupt maamul leaders are trying to accomplish and these men of faith inside of puntland are asking Gaas and co to understand the ramifications of their actions and rhetoric. If mere states try and confront the federal government in one way or another it will lead to another civil war that the country won't be able to recover from. But if it comes to that all of the sane and logical people won't be on the wrong side of history and will be supporters of the federal government against these jahil maamul leaders. Who in most cases have fragmented support within their own bases as well. It's turning into a shit show and fast.
