During the Arta conference, Mr. Aden Hashi Farah nicknamed Ayro and future leader of Al-shabab was present at this conference.

Also, during 2000 Mr. Abdillahi Ali Hashi who was spokesperson of Al-ithihad was living in Djibouti and receiving salary and free housing from government of Djibouti.
Six months after the collapse of Barre regime in Somalia, on 26th of January 1991, two international reconciliation meetings were organized in Djibouti in june and jully in order to establish a Somali gouvernment. Six group of stakeholders were participated those meetings and chosen Ali Mahdi as president of transition of Somalia. Soon after, General Aidid rejected this choice and a civil war started in Mogadishu. The choice of Ali Mahdi as president of Somali soon after the collapse of Siyad Barre's regime was not a innocent move from the late president of Djibouti. President Hassan Gouled was done everything he could to make his friend and member of DjiboutiSomalia mafia Ali Mahdi head of Somalia State. The president Hassan Gouled Aptidon, Idriss Omar Guelleh (nefew of Hassan Gouled), Muraya Garad Ahmed (president of somali women union), Sayid Omar Mugne (managing director of somali fishing society), Ali Mahdi (owner of Hotel Pietro Bearzi in mogadishu), General Secretary of Chamber of Commerce and Somali army and intelligent officers were the first circle of Djibouti-Somalia Mafia. 

However, there was also another mafia type in Somalia known as "Tutale' and this latter was essentially formed by Marehan clan. This mafia or "Tutale' became powerful after May 1986, due to grave road accident of Siyad Barre who sustained a serious brain injury. This road accident was later qualified as attempt of assassination. "Tutale' was working closely with Italian mafia known as "Ndrangheta' involved in the smuggling and dumping of nuclear/toxic wastes in Somalia, but, also drugs and arms trafficking. Indeed, french marine force arraigned in January 1987 in Djibouti sea water Lynx a ship containing toxic wastes. Lynx was owned by Fyord Tanker Shipping of Malta and it was chartered by Fin-Chart based in Rome and partner of Swiss Achair & Partners. Both companies were managed by Zuana Achire a society based in Singapore and headed by Mr.Gurda Ceso an Indonesian citizen. Those ships used by the Italian mafia and transporting nuclear and other toxic wastes were coming to Djibouti under authorization of president Hassan Gouled, then they got necessary paper works from Djbouti as if they were containing merchandises from Djibouti and Arab countries before heading to Somalia which is their final destination.

This conference was different than the previous ones, it was more inclusive. There were more civil leaders, scholars, different clans' leaders, business community leaders and religious leaders. At the end of the conference a transitional national government (TNG) was formed. This government had broad international recognition, but a rival group named Somali counsel for restoration and reconciliation (SCRR) contested the authority of the TNG. The SCRR was essentially formed by war lords from different regions of Somalia. Hidden agenda of Arta's peace conference for Somalia - Ismaël Omar Guelleh invited in this conference only Somali diaspora and clans' elders and religious leaders.

But, president Ismael requested and obtained an additional 20 members for him. Those 20 more members of parliament were mainly religious extremists such as "Al-ithihad' etc… among them there were: Sheikh Omar Faaruq, Sheikh Hassan Agaweyne and so on.

This poet shared his thoughts with his friends at Hotel Ali-Sabieh in Djibouti during the Arta conference. Ismaël Omar Guelleh is the creator of Al-shabab. How? There is no question that President Ismael Omar Guelleh is the creator of extremist group Al-shabab. During the Arta conference, Mr. Aden Hashi Farah nicknamed Ayro and future leader of Al-shabab was present at this conference. Ayro and others members of Al-ithihad had several meetings with President Guelleh. Most of Al-shabab leaders are Issaq clan or Gadaboursi and they are relatives of Guelleh.

The agenda of that meeting was as follows : I – Giving up the fighting, and dissolving military wing of Al-ithihad II – Creating centers that teach and propagate the ideology of Al-ithihad Sheikh Mahamoud Isse, Aden Hashi Farah or "Ayro' and Sheikh Ali Warsame supported option number II during the meeting while, Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys, Sheikh Hassan Abdoulahi Hersi, Mohamed Haji Youssouf, Ibrahim Haji Djama (Ibrahim Afghan), Omar Ali Mireh (Omar Dhere) and Mohamed Bin-Hodan supporte option I in order to follow the teachings of Sheikh Abdallah Yousouf Azan who believed the armed jihad for the propagation of Wahhabism. At the end of that meeting Al-ithihad split in three (3) groups: I - Al-Ihtisam which grouped the supporters of option I II – Salafiya Jihadiya which grouped the supporters of option II III – A third group whithout name but that will join latter to Al-shabab The birth of Salafiya Jihadiya. Ibrahim Haji Djama (Ibrahim Afghani) became the head of Salafiya Jihadiya. Having contacts in Kabul, he decided to send young Somalis to Afghanistan to learn propaganda techniques to spread wahhabism and combat techniques. The disappearance of Al-ithihad, saddened Ousama Ben Laden and Al-Qaida of Easr Africa left from Somalia for Kenya where it committed the terror acts us embassies in Nairobi and Dar es salaam August 7th 1998. 

In 2000, Salafiya Jihadiya took foot hold in mogadishu and lower juba in Somalia. They received money and weapons from Djibouti and Al-Qaida. Salafiya Jihadiya became more active in Mogadishu and later supported the rise of Islamic courts which took the power from war lords in Somalia. In January 5th 2005, Salafiya Jihadiya lead by Aden Hashi Farah (Ayro) destroyed Italian cemetery nearby SOS hospital in Mogadishu. Then, Al-shabab transformed the site a training camp for their fighters and they renamed it Salahadin camp.

CRRS is a coalition of five (5) armed groups from center and southern Somalia. This coalition did not recognize the Transition National Government formed in Djibouti. The CRRS started fighting with the TNG armies. 

The CRRS accused the government troops being sympathizing with extremist terrorists such as Al-ithihad and Salafiya jihadiya. Those extremist terrorists became later Al-shabab. Also, CRRS accused president Guelleh to be the one who financed those extremists but back then no one believed the CRRS. Unfortunately today we know that the CRRS was right about the link between Al-shabab and president Guelleh. Terror attack at ' la chaumière in 2014 ordered by Ismaël Omar Guelleh 

Muse Robleh Herad (clan Fourlaba/Isse) 36 years old and Hodan Mahammud Isse (clan Isaaq) 29 years old were plowing up themselves in "La Chaumiere' a restaurant in Djibouti on may 24th 2014 around 6PM UT. On May 22nd 2014 their explosive material arrived in Djibouti by commercial truck from Somaliland. One day later the Al-shabab couple arrived loyada border and came to Djibouti with help of Djibouti immigration officer named Suleiman Waberi. Some dark points about the investigation of this terror attack : — First the officer who helped those terrorists to cross the border was dismissed from immigration police and got important amount of money from Ismael Omar Guelleh to open his own business. — Second, ' La garde republicaine or GR destroyed the car used by the terrorists. This destruction was ordered by Ismael Omar Guelleh in order to remove any evidence that can help investigators to discover the truth. 

The team of police leading the investigation was ordered not mention in their final report the house used by the terrorists while they were preparing their terror attack. This house owned by a cousin of Ismael Omar Guelleh is located in Balbala a large suburb of Djibouti. All people arrested and put in jail for this terror are innocent and they were used to cover up the truth. Finally, those two terrorists were used in order to fool western government who had bases in Djibouti and make sure they continue to support Guelleh's regime. Ismael Omar guelleh requested from Al-shabab to send those terrorists to commit attack in Djibouti so he could prove western governments that Djibouti is a victim and a target for Al-shabab because of its supports of war on terror.
