Pirates, Somalia, We
(04/15/2009)

Abshir Waldo Mohamed is a Somali analyst who works in Kenya. It 'the author of a publication entitled "The Two piracy in Somalia: Why the world ignores the other?". Here is the his testimony:

"There are two piracy in Somalia. One is what is causing the problem today, and that is illegal fishing by foreign vessels, which in addition to fulfilling all the while fishing for another illegal job, landfilling of industrial toxic waste in our waters, and even nuclear , all from the rich world. The other piracy is that you tell your media. But it was unleashed in response to these crimes, when our waters were poisoned, when it was plundered our fish, and in a poor country the fishermen realized that they had no other choice but to react with violence against ships and properties of powerful countries that sponsor your piracy and toxic dump here.

nations most involved in this first piracy are France, Norway, Spain, Italy, Greece, Great Britain, but also Russia and Asian countries like Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, China. It all started, with regard to illegal fishing in 1991. The community of Somali fishermen have for years complained to the UN and the EU, but were completely ignored. Western vessels arriving here and fishing without a license, even react with force when our boats oppose them, we throw boiling water on him, shooting at us, we aim to control the vessels. These things are happened for years, until the Somali fishermen have organized themselves into a body of National Volunteer Coast Guard, which you now call 'pirates'. Today

navies of these countries are here to protect them against pirates. Our fishermen are afraid to go to sea because they are often arrested and detained by the cruisers only Western suspicion of being 'pirates'. This is a terrible injustice, with the international community that is only their own interests and ignore us. Our 'pirates' of today are former employees of desperation, nothing else.

And then there's the background to the problem of landfill toxic industrial chemicals in rich countries our waters, which began in the '70s and is still continued, especially in response to the birth in the West of environmental laws much stricter than before. So your governments have decided to download them in poor countries or in war, who could not respond, or whose governments could be corrupted. Al Jazeera has documented, but I think CNN. It 's been said and written repeatedly that the Italian Mafia is heavily involved here in Somalia in the landfill of prohibited substances (Ilaria Alpi, remember, PB).

Just yesterday (13/04) a ship has been captured by fishermen in the Gulf of Aden, not by 'pirates', but by fishermen, who suspected he was going to download toxic substances. The ship was immediately thrown into the sea when they saw two huge container fishermen, but fortunately they are not sunk and were washed ashore. The local community has called on your government to come to inspect those containers, but for now there was no response.

The World Bank a few years ago a leaked confidential memo where Larry Summers, who was then its chief economist (now Obama's economic council, PB), said "I think the economic logic behind dumping of toxic substances in most countries poor is impeccable and we should face this fact. I always thought that under-populated countries in Africa are under a lot of pollution. " Then he recanted and said it was sarcasm. "
