Cirro should be careful with his words. Trump might just say he will own Somaliland.

You should know by now he never criticizes Lafta Gareen, anyone else is a game. For him he is infallible, cajiib.

Well I have never liked the idea of giving territory to Ethiopians they have a track record of claiming things that aren’t theirs . The other issue I have with the deal is with the galla becoming more fierce and more belligerents even their beggars in hargeisa are talking with so much kibir I never really endorsed the idea just entertained the benefit of the doubt since I trust bixii to the nation right but I don’t trust abiye and the gallas one bit the fact and the disrespect is that they even go to Ankara and talk about it with Somalia is a disrespectful to Somaliland . All in all somaliland should just help Somalia with this issue and stop the whole thing . And negotiations with Somalia and somaliland should begin imediatly I think we have shown good will with this but they should then stop stalling and. Agree with a 5 year plan to come with a solution for our conflict . Now they don’t have to sell any more of their resources with military treaties with foreign countries it’s a win win

Hawd is usually included in the Waqooyi political sphere even though it is geographically situated in the West, but then again, you would have known that had you been a bona fide native. By the way, it is "Waqooyi => origin 'Waaq hooy [Waaq's lair], pre-Islam idol' ", and not "Woqooyi". It follows the same naming convention as the days of the week, and months of the Gregorian calendar. Again, aan kuu ducaynee maandhow, afka & dhulka noo daa!

Juxa poking fun at Villa Xamar. "First time ever Villa Somalia says a word about the existence of ISIS! Marka runtu kaa daba timaaddo ood weydo geed aad ku gabato". https://twitter.com/FarahJuxa/status/1885772741212610831

My late father was once asked in 2000 interview who was the most nationalist he had worked with in 1960s. Guess who he had named? In that heavyweight era of Soomaali nationalism fever, he named Cabdirisaaq Xaaji Xuseen. No wonder he asked in lagu aaso meesha Aaden Cadde ku aasanyahay, which was done. Alloow u wada raxmo dhamaantood.

Korna Xabashi ha naga maamusho sax? Soomaali mid kale la dhashay u taliyo ma rabo, laakiin shisheeye taliskooda si edeb leh ku joogaan.

Waliga ma maqashay: Waan soconwaayaye aan ordo". Sodoo kale Soomaalidu waxay tiraahdaa: "Tiisa daryeelaa mid kale kudara". Sudan iyadaava ciidankeedii wali dhisanyihiin maxay Somalia oo ciidan ladheego jirin.

Hong Kong was a nation state with complete laws before China acquired it and promising it will respect its local laws, including currency. Just tell us what country's region prints its own local currency? Name a single country.

Beesha Dhexe much like other Habar in the South (Galkacayo in particular) don't understand the concept of live and let live. They only respect brute force. Unfortunately, many young men will perish before common sense prevails.

Clan federalism was always going to an unworkable arrangement for a Somali state. If the state is to survive, there needs to be a new constitution and new federal states which crisscross and divide clan territories, where everyone regardless of clan affliarion has the right to vote or run for political office.

Ha iloowin the influence of endless right wing media. They dominate radio, brainwashing endless Americans who commute daily. They control almost all local newspapers and TV stations. Their grifter personalities are top rated podcasters. Don't forget social media, especially Twitter whose very owner is a closet neo-Nazi. I am glad I never ever had a Twitter account. All this contributes.

1 - Hirshabeelle ayaa ku qoran Hiiraan iyo Shabeellaha Dhexe kala baxsan. Waagaas Hirshabeelle ma jirin. (This is the sole reason, many suspect, the minister of petroleum who published this map. He hails from Hiiraan and supports so-called Hiiraan State.) 2 - Sool iyo Sanaag 'disputed' gobolloka dhaxeeyo Waqooyi Bari iyo Waqooyi Galbeed ku qoran. 3 - Mudug deegaano ka mid ah in muran heysasho ah ka jiro ku qoran 4 - Waqooyi Galbeed ka dhigay deegaan ka madaxbanaan Soomaaliya. Aqri meesha midig hoose.

Axmed Madoobe ilma adeerkiisa ku bahdil isleeyahay Xasan Socdaal. I never give any benefit of doubt to Xasan when many were lenient when he was (s)elected again. He is even worse than my worst version of him I was expecting. He utterly failed, what a glorious missed fursad he wasted from mid 2022, when many were praising him dagaalada loogu adkaaday kuwa afka duuban, though it wasn't his initiative nor his commanding. The generals (Odawaa and Biixi) leading these victorious were from previous administration. After he removed them for no reason other than being from serving previous administration, the failure started immediately.

He's absolutely right on this.

Dhibka jiro waxee tahay Xasan daacad kama aha la dagaalanka Xabashida iyo qaranimo difaaca. He just want wax Laftagareen iyo maamulkiisa awooda yeeshay burburiyo. He wants degmooyinka Koonfur Galbeed ciidamo Masar geeyo, sida Xuddur, Marka, Baraawe iyo Belidoogle. Reer KG doqomo macnaha wey arkaan waxa socdo. Shaqsi ahaantey waaka soo horjeedaa Xabashi jecleysigaan laakiin Xasan waa munaafaq weynaaday qabiiliste ah and can't stand KG awood leh. Dagaal qaboob kula jiraa, maalin walbana qabiilo kiciyaa. Dagaalo beeleed dhici jirin ayaa ka dhacooyo, ku soo noqboqonaayo labadii sano u dambeysay deegaanada Berdaale, Qoryooleey, Diinsoor iyo Daafeed (Wanlaweyn) suu maamulka iyo dadka iskaga horkeeno.

The people of Somaliland in Sanaag now utilise the recently constructed Mait sea port. The Bosaso port is no longer in use; instead, the choice is between Berbera and Mait. It is also noteworthy that the great Muse Ismail clan has never faced a challenge to their leadership in their own city. They have governed Ceerigabo since 1991, a city that even the formidable Afweyne could not sway, which is why Ceerigabo fell to the SNM before Hargeisa, Burco, or Berbera. Ceerigabo's status is beyond dispute. As for the Maakhir community, the majority vacated the city in 1991. At that time, only four individuals from the Maakhir clan remained—a Doobile and three women who were married to Ismaciil Xaji Nuur.

My favourite part was the victory lap by Garaad "Dagaalka Galla" in Bari & Sanaag!

I honesty don't know. It seems to me they want to have their cake and ate too. They have interests in both countries and would like to keep those interests.

That is a good question, and I think that along with the timelines shall be shared after the agreement has been signed. The details about the original plan could be found here https://dekadagaracad.com/ https://www.adports.ae/

Thanks Che, but i do not really know it, i will let you know when i findout. it really looks better than any of the houses i have seen in Mogadisho or Hargaysa. The way they builind houses in Garoowe is very close to how they do in Western Countries. I said, close, becuase there is few things i could have done better, but never the less is a masive step up. one of the reason somalis buy houses abroad (istanbul, nairobi, dubai and so on) was becuase of the lack off quality of construction in somalia.

I think it’s time for KG political elites to raise their ambitions and aim for the highest position in the land and make their weigh and numbers in Somalia count, as they be perhaps the biggest clan group in Somalia and it’s high time to offset change and disturb the clan based monopoly that Somalia has become.

Your candor here is appreciated.

Delusional Xaaji. Where do the Canfar settle to attack Djibouti? Inside Awdal? When thing I would say is that Awdal Movement will not stop whether Djibouti supports us or not. One thing the last few days taught me is how fragile the Hargeisa regime is. Faysal Waraabe is wearing black headband to mourn and as usual all over the place. he is insulting the HAG community and declared to offer his services to C/laahi Dani. At the same time he supports the song that declared " Axmaar baa iga Garoowe iyo Xamar". We didn't even fire a bullet yet all the cry iyo Kakacaay. We the Awdalites are resilient really, all we need just start the fire crackers and this regime will collapse.

Che, dagaalada sokeeye really damaged the proud Soomaali psyche. The days of: Sinnaantaan la magac ahay San ku neefle ma oggoli Inuu iga sareyn karo Is gone. Haddee kuwaan joogi lahaayeen xilligii gumeystaha, ilaa iyo hadda gumeysi ku jiri lahayn, each dusty tuulo ruled by damiirlaawiyaashaan iyo faracooda.

The diplomatic game score so far. Ethiopia 1 - 2 Somalia (1) Somalia might have thwarted the blatant land grap, 2) but for this it had to show and exhaust all its diplomatic cards, and 3) it gave much political leverage for Ethiopia to interfere with ease in own sovereignty. Ethiopia 3 - 0 Djibouti (1) Ethiopia sabotaged Djibouti’s peace and dialogue initiative between Somaliland and Somalia, 2) it has undermined Djibouti relationship with its western neighbour (Somaliland) leaving Djibouti to the full mercy of Ethiopia, and 3) Djibouti caved in to Ethiopia by renegotiating the agreement and giving reductions in the millions of fees it charges for the use of its port) Ethiopia 3 - 0 Somaliland (1) Somaliland shot in its own foot by seeking a diplomatic war with its only two neighbours, Somalia and Djibouti, with quite the political, economic impact without having anything tangible in return, 2) It dashed any hope of Somalilands resolving its status through dialogue with Somalia, 3) It will get practically for free any port, trade and military sea access without giving recongnition in return. Ethiopia 1 - 1 Kenya (Ethiopia gained compromises from Kenya the use of Lamu Port, Freezone area, perhaps even military base. While Kenya gained regional leverage in its mediation effort between Somalia, Ethiopia) Somaliland 0 - 0 Somalia (Both disqualified as they scored in the own goals, and are back to square one. with even less leverage, less trust and exhausted all political and public credit and energy without much in return)

I was worried about the dysfunction of the unending debate about the elections which is away 2 years from now to drag the country while neglecting the major issues, but I guess I was wrong. The biggest obstacle that will destroy HSM is himself. He want to do everything by himself. The Somali state is bigger than one man or one clan. He surrounded himself with his own students to manage major national issues while neglecting the Somali experts. He is paranoid of other people getting in the system. I couldn't find one single Somali expert or experienced politician among his inner circle or running major portfolios.

Examples: President @HassanSMohamud billed the National Treasury $450,000 for a 4 day trip to New York. PM @HamzaAbdiBarre billed the National Treasury $150,000 for a half an hour trip to Adan Yabaal for travel and lodging expenses. MMA: Be a good sport, and do the calculations assuming HSM spends $112,500 a day on each trip abroad.

This is broadcast on Ethiopia's national TV. It redraws the map of Somali territories with an intent of separating Central SL (Isaq territories) from the rest excl. SSC-Khatumo, but incl. Awdal. An age old strategy of expansion, division, conquering, and subjugation coming together.

This was the most I ever listened to a vacuous politician. My brain now aches in dire need of elan. Trouble with ciyaal al Kacaan is you all think the country is Xamar, and Xamar is the country. Why not ride a bus to Baydhaba, travel through Sh Hoose, trot to Kismayo through Baardheere, and tell us what you see. O' you can not, yet here you are parroting the usual blather about the city State akin to a stable full of asphyxiated flora and fauna with Mr Jones no longer able to attend to their resuscitation. In this instance, it is as if you are a "baqal la dhufaanay' attempting a canter behind "dameer asqaysan", then I ask of you: what are those right-thinking souls amongst us to do? In the Somali tradition, elders practise 'gar naqsi' on their own prior to presenting their case to the 'xeer beegti' under the tree. HSM lacks, and is void of that, and is a classic munaafaq, who says one thing, and does the opposite. This ahbal wants to sweet-talk the nation into a dictatorship, and we may as well be blindly led by Hinda Culusow and Shihan Xasan Sh. Let us reflect upon his utterings: a) The most damaging of all: He went from " 'Ethiopia dhul nagama haysato' replaced with 'Dhul Ethiopia ayaan qaar goosaynaynaa ma aannaan dhihin' ". Let that sink in and ruminate. b) Constitution: The audacity of the man from "Loo joojin maa! " to "begging and pleading from the mosque ". He now argues "war yaanan degdegin", a few months ago, he was saying "waqti ma hadhin, immisaa la sugaa". Here is a sample of the Constitutional re-drafting he is engaged in. Do you still think his intentions are honourable? i) Af iyo dhego aan is maqal: in one sentence, he argues for a shift by rummaging through "redrafting the Constitution" without consensus, inclusivity, and representation, yet in the next sentence, he makes the case as to the reasons THAT only leads to failure. As MMA quite rightly diagnoses, the man suffers from hypomania disorder. ii) Best example is where he says let us NOT bypass agreed upon political contract, consensus-based constitution and treaties, yet he is the first to have unilaterally violated the ONLY agreed upon political contract in 50 years. iii) Another clear example of munaafaqnimo is where he says "aan wada hadallo", yet rejects negotiations, the open platform afforded him, and with the leadership granted to him. c) He argues "Hub waxaan u sidannaa keliya khawaarijta", yet does not realise sabotaging development projects is far more egregious than firing bullets. FGS has been withholding funds for developments projects, or refusing to sign paperwork for projects in PL incl. the Garacad - Galkacyo - Galdobgob, modernising electric grid, water purification projects just to name a few. If he had the ability to wage a war, he would have done so, but he does not, and the only weapon he could fight with is sabotaging development and progress. He financed stringers to disrupt local district elections. The same would apply to any other FMS just as his predecessor had done to JL, he tried against SL in shutting down international flights, to name a few. d) Now, he claims to have implemented federalism in the country. Could someone remind him of the drudgery in laying down the pipelines and the political capital expended in instituting Federalism whilst he was still an unknown Macawisle sporting sandals in suuq Bacaad, and how he was forced to accept JL as a State whilst he was wailing at the alter moving the entire FGS to prevent it from becoming one. Let us also remind him of his sabotaging of the SSC Khatumo movement in becoming a State, and backstabbing it in ridding itself of the SL militias. e) Elections: could he hold elections in 24 months? - If so, in which districts? Here are the regions and a list of districts aligned with the Fed. gov't. 1. Koonfur Mudug*: 2 degmo Hobyo Xarardheere 2. Galgaduud: 7 degmo Dhuusamareeb Ceelbuur Ceeldheer Cadaado Cabuudwaaq Gal hareeri Balanbale 3. Hiiraan: 5 degmo Beladweyn Buulo burte Jalalaqsi Matabaan Maxaas 4. Shabeellaha Dhexe: 7 degmo Jowhar Balcad Cadale Aadan yabaal Mahaddaay Ruun nirgood Warsheikh 5. Shabeellaha Hoose: 9 degmo Marka Afgooye Wanleweyn Qoryooley Baraawe Sablaale Kurtun-waareey Dajuuma Aw-dheegle 6. Jubbada Dhexe: 3 degmo Bu’aale Jilib Saakoow 7. Jubabada Hoose: 5 degmo Kismaayo Jamaame Afmadow Badhaadhe Xagar 8. Baay 5 degmo Baydhabo Buur xakaba Diinsoor Qansax dheere Berdaale 9. Bakool: 6 degmo Xuddur Tayeegloow Waajid Ceelbarde Yeed Rab dhuurre 10. Gedo: 6 degmo Garbahaarrey Luuq Baardheere Beladxaawo Dooloow Ceelwaa 11. Banaadir: 16 degmo f) Al Shabaab: Against wise counsel, where he was advised not to wage a war, but embrace engagement strategy, he chose otherwise; besides the pantomine costumes and empty rhetoric, and with AS's leadership still in Xamar, could he defeat AS? Latest intel indicates AS is [the] most armed, capable force in the country, and is stronger now than it were 2 years ago. i) He speaks of AS hiding and the FGS seeking them out, and what he does not understand is AS's manoeuvring is a strategy; question is what is his strategy? Where are the army generals, military tacticians, strategists, planners, and leaders? He is none of the above, yet wants to assume the role of all. g) PL / SL: Northern polities in the N East (pro-federalist) and N West (secessionist leaning towards Confederalist), as imperfect as they are, do lead regional politics, and have shown political maturity, stability, and conviction unlike the green FMSs in the deep South, which are gradually progressing whilst still beholden to the injurious Xamar-centric, centralist agenda. For the FMSs, this is temporary, a marriage of convenience, case in point both JL & SW are adrift, and divergent with the coming 12 months ushering in a new dawn of politicking. Both are poised to break away to full autonomy in coming years, for doing so benefits them directly, and the nation indirectly. The more politically and financially independent FMSs become, the less influence Xamar has over States. The same shall apply to GM & HS. The Garacad - Tuurdibi trade route 'ween PL and DDS has been an ongoing project, in the works for years, starting under Gaas, to boost the local economy. A good example, fruits and veggies consumed in PL now come from DDS (reason potato and tomato is cheaper in Galkacyo than in Xamar), and in return reason reer SG are now sea food aficionados, with export to DDS on steady uptick and revenue stream for the locals on either side of fence. Do you still think PL is in the wrong? If so, tell us why and how?

Reer Mudug oo banooni fiirsanaayo oo la socdo, kooweey koow.

Xaaji, now that is indeed what the concept of politics is all about, bravo! It was the German Political thinker, Carl Schmitt, who theorised on ‘what is the political and what is not’, through his political theories on friend-enemy distinction and said, “the specific political distinction to which political actions and motives can be reduced to is that between friend and enemy”. further clarifying that the friend- enemy distinction is not static in the sense that friends won’t always remain friends and enemies now doesn’t mean enemies forever, but it based on mutual understanding on interest and issues and above all on temporal mutual opponents. Coming back to your points, yes Somaliland should indeed play political ball and seek alliances that further its ambitions and interests trying to win terrain on the (common) opponent. For that is what the system of state and political are all about, and how every region or group that ever sought distinct political ambitions, such as independence or autonomy, achieved things by playing the game of the political as it was conceived and ought to be. P.S. irrelevant of one supporting or not any sort of political manoeuvring, Somali leaders should stop the whole ‘wa baxday’, ‘xiriir wa u jaray’, ‘qeyb kama mijin’, Kama qeyb qaadadino’, and other sorts of wimpiness that completely defeats the purpose of politics. You signed up for politics, then play politics and come with what is political.

Will Ethiopian airline flights to Garowe & Hargeysa be banned? Also, the Puntland minister of information is speaking exactly like our own Xaaji Xanjuf. When I read I thought he was taking a page from Xaaji. He just said almost like " The bunker should pacify Mogadishu before talking to Puntland. The rebels had soft spot for each other as always. In terms Somali government stopping Ethiopian Airline , it is a matter just a letter to the airline and Kaboom it is over. No airline will risk to fly an airspace that is blocked from her, mind you there are insurance and other legal issues. Now we got two separatist administrations.OO Ethiopia u kala badinaya just like nineteen eighties.
