Prior 2006, HG were enjoying their golden period from Hobyo to Galgaduud to Xamar to Merka to Kismaayo they had it on lock.Name it money,power,fear etc
Then C.Yussuf came and he used Ethiopian soilders to actually reverse their gains.By the time they had left Hg were very weak and Abgaal had reigned in to be the supreme masters of Xamar.AS continued to dismantle HG power bases in the South they chased the infamous ruthless Indocadhe.When Sheikh Shariff was head of the TFG HG power had withered soo much that they were a folklore.Then HG elites brought in Xassan Sheikh a firm beleiver of USC a fierce anti Darood.Ever since his rise to throne they have uaed this opportunity to rebrand themselves and regain their past glory.They started with reviving the JVA which worked out disastrous for them.They used every tool available from IC sympathy,Media propaganda and all level support from Xassan Sheikh govt it was in vain and infact Xassan Sheikh tenure will be remembered mostly for his unwavering energy and desire to destroy JL and create JVA which was a brain child of C.qassim.Then it was the Lower Shabeele fiasco HG amassed weapons and bandits from Mogadishu and started creating barricades on roads where fruits from the farms were being transported for export.This banana wars infact a re awakning for HG.They could not phanthom how on earth a group who they taxed for building a house and using the river water had turned into a formidable foe.The locals in Lower Shabelle had infact rooted them out of the region only to be brought back by Xassan Sheikh militia and AMISOM.
After failing miserably they decided to rekindle a war inside Ethiopia with Liyu Polis this would make them regain respect from the Somali masses.However Liyu Polis answered them with brute force.Then recently the Galkacyo event was the last straw to clutch on.Having fought amongst themselves between Galmudug and Ahlu suna wal jama which is a suufi sect supported by Ethiopia.Galmudug forces thought that they could do the same to PL forces and we saw the end game.The humiliation of Galmudug.
HG have to come round this is not 90's.Because they have no manpower or resources to relive their lost glory its over.They need to turn over a new leaf and let bygones be bygones.
