[19:40:04] <n1> the international community basically seems to count some semblance of control over mogadishu, even if it's just the government buildings themselves, as 'progress towards stability'
[19:37:07] <n1> and im sure that wouldnt make the already powerful states in the region happy, more competition from a state with a strategically valuable location
[19:36:14] <n1> but pay no attention to that stable and democratic government, if they were actually recognized they could become a powerful state in the region

[19:27:54] <takyon_> progress towards stability.[163][164][165][166] In August 2014, the Somali government-led Operation Indian Ocean was launched against insurgent-held pockets in the countryside.[167] The war continues in 2017."
[19:27:50] <n1> the french have a much better system though, they run the UN peacekeeping missions, which happen to mostly occur in former french colonies, keeps them in line and stops france actually having to pay or take responsibility for protecting french interests in their former colonies
[19:27:37] <takyon_> "The Federal Government of Somalia, the first permanent central government in the country since the start of the civil war, was later established in August 2012. By 2014, Somalia was no longer at the top of the fragile states index, dropping to second place behind South Sudan.[146] UN Special Representative to Somalia Nicholas Kay, European Union High Representative Catherine Ashton and other international stakeholders and analysts have also
[19:24:50] <n1> and on the other topic of somaliland, they've been de facto independent since 1991, but because the UK doesn't have any interest in tabling the issue in the UN, they remain part of the failed state of somalia
[19:19:57] <n1> keep it like it is, because if the iraq government gets too unfriendly re global community interests, there can be a nice context of humanitarian crisis of the kurds to get back in their and replace the iraqi government
[19:17:28] <n1> they will get just enough suppport to keep them alive, but not enough to actually make progress
[19:17:07] <n1> just keeps the conflict simmering, unless turkey stops caring, they wont ever get anywhere... they

[19:15:26] <n1> but strategic ally in turkey and keeping the iraq gov as friendly as possible is more important than self-determination of the kurds
[19:14:35] <n1> i'll also never forget a clip from a documentary re the 2003 iraq invasion where some kurds said 'the US would never let this happen again to us'
[19:13:55] <n1> as a notable foreign policy expert said, to paraphrase 'it's good to have an armed militia in your back pocket'
[19:13:19] <n1> can't have the kurds go independent then you wouldn't have an amendable oppressed group in the region ready to take up arms
[19:13:13] <takyon_> yup kurds are getting BTFO in Iraq and their leader just resigned

[19:11:53] <n1> got to be something for the international community to gain from independence, like in south sudan
[19:11:33] <n1> independence has been dead for a while, if you happen to live in kurdistan and somaliland
[19:08:59] <takyon_> also the counterprotests in Catalonia are pretty big. Maybe independence is dead?

[01:35:03] <Bytram> well, we've got a goodly number of stories in the queue, had a full day... think I'm gonna turn in early.
[01:31:58] <Bytram> I actually *did* see Avatar twice in two weeks in theaters... did such a phenomenal job with the 3D effects and coloration, I just had to see it again to relive the immersion.
[01:30:20] <Bytram> j/k
[01:30:10] <Bytram> well, it helps that I don't need to re-see something every couple years to remember what was in it. ;)

[01:27:22] <Bytram> prolly bee3n nearly as long for the blues brothers, as well.

[01:24:26] <Bytram> indeed! A big heaping piled of mashed, and buttered, potatoes is just the right thing for dinner on a cold winter's night.
[01:23:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> which is kinda a shame
[01:23:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, we rarely do mashed taters
[01:22:03] <Bytram> which of the scenes do you think he'll act out first? "I'm a zit!" ??
[01:16:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> i consider it an essential part of his cultural heritage
