President of Somaliland, speaking alongside Netanyahu: The potential for cooperation between Somaliland and Israel is vast and practical. Somaliland possesses significant natural resources, including promising rare earth minerals, oil and gas prospects, and a largely untapped extractive sector. We also have one of the most strategic coastlines in the region. We see Israel's leadership in innovation and technology as a natural partner to Somaliland's untapped potential and strategic geography.

Lots of talk about rare earths recently. Back in 2020 my dad and I staked hundreds of lithium mining claims in Nevada. Yes, you literally need a stake. We later sold all of the claims to a lithium production business.

⚡️Mohammed Al-Bukhaiti, member of the political bureau of Ansar Allah (Houthis): TARGETING GULF OIL AND GAS FACILITIES IS A TACTICAL AND STRATEGIC INTEREST FOR ALL SONS OF THE ARAB AND ISLAMIC UMMAH. “All the calamities that have befallen the ummah originated from the Gulf states and were funded by them. The American occupation of Afghanistan started from the Gulf and was funded by them, and the same applies to the American occupation of Iraq, as well as the aggression against Yemen and the siege and starvation of its people, which started from the Gulf and was funded by them. Were it not for the money of the Gulf states, the genocide in Gaza would not have lasted this long. Likewise, the strife that afflicted the ummah was caused by Gulf money, whether in Afghanistan, Algeria, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Sudan, Chechnya, or in India between Muslims and Hindus, which weakened the ummah in confronting the Zionist and American enemy. Therefore, the damage inflicted on the ummah as a result of oil money in the Gulf states has been far greater than that of oil money in the state of Texas. Accordingly, targeting Gulf oil and gas facilities represents a tactical and strategic interest for all sons of the Arab and Islamic ummah.”

The people of Awdal possess history, land, and a strong national conscience, and they will not accept their homeland being turned into a base for foreign interests. Any attempt to advance foreign interests in the Bab-ul-Mandab through division, clan politics, or a breakaway administration constitutes a violation of Somalia’s sovereignty. The security of the Bab-ul-Mandab can only be ensured through the stability of Somalia, particularly in strategic regions such as Awdal.

If the Strait of Hormuz is the nuclear bomb, then Bab el-Mandab could be the hydrogen bomb. If the US keeps escalating against Iran, Yemen has threatened to back Tehran by shutting down the Bab el-Mandab Strait. Millions of barrels of oil pass through it every day, along with container ships carrying everything from consumer goods to pharmaceuticals. Close both chokepoints, and you're looking at a crisis that could devastate the global economy. Tune in to the Sanchez Effect.
