^^ So-mad-inomo or Soomaalinimo?

^^ "an independant secessionist entity" ? All that instead of Somaliland? You remind me of MMA using a long phrase just to avoid saying Jumatatu. I personally don't like Meles & Co (note I did not say Ethipians or Xabash). I think the people in charge like Cawil see doing business with them as necessary evil. It's easy for us who are in the "West" to criticise, isn't it?

^^ All the characters he mentioned are in Mogadishu and are today's Meles' loyal bum-licking stooges. Che The Ethios intentions is one thing. What we have is here is an allegation Somalis went out of their way to plan the invasion. This is before the Courts that some blame or use as a pretext. It all sems just too accurate.

^^ Why are asking, are you the laughter police? <- just a smile.

Here we go again... ding ding! round one... :cool:

^^ You're laughing, why can't I Jimmy?

^^ Horta ma Maakhir baa mise Makhiir, Maqiir mise Maaqir? Them Ausie asset stripers must be more baffled!

When this chap came forward in 2005 to warn about impending invasion Mogadishu and the south of Somalia by thousands Ethios and their cahoots, it sounded like scare mongering to some of us. Did he really have the master-plan or was what happened just a coincidence?

North I think you're just making excuses. Do you really expect us to believe Sheikh told you it's ok to take photos back of heads not the faces? C'mon! I don't think taking pictures of some geezers' back of the head was your biggest sin you committed on your adventures either. More beautiful scenery ... Allaybaday (and its surrounds) is a place I find very appealing. Is it the name? Greenery? Allaybaday and "allaybaday dam" farms and schools and more

Baashi Don't know about Oodweyne, but, do I hold you in high regard or do I hold you in high regard? I'm also an admirer of your ability of juggling several political potatoes, but, a simpleton like I can only focus on the one labelled N. On insurgency. Again it won't be effective if the folks who are waging it are from part of HG clans only. Bring Durriyada, Baidowa, Puntland, Hiiraan, Geddo, and Juba clans into the game and you will see Habasha taking a cover. ... If only you called for that last winter instead of the "neutrality" you came up with. I admit, it was wrong for the battlefield to be in Bay when the leadership of protagonists were not natives, but, the Court had little choice. War was declared on them by hoodlums that were US/Ethio-backed. Where does "reconciliation" you're backing fit in all this anyway?

On Duke. The man does a helluva spinning. He is good at it. But he does it with style. I beg to differ. I won't show you the evidence because waa la i caayay waa ceeb. The chap goes even beyond your "in-law jokes". When he's not doing that, he's copying and pasting utter trash. Rest of the time he's doing a good job of contradicting himself. But as they say, beauty is the eyes of the beer-holder. I don't support Inna Yey. Never did. Diin ku taageeri mayo. Oo caadilnimo ku taageerimayo. Nin maareyn iyo maamul yaqaan oo technocrat ah ku taageeri mayo. Oo tolnimo ku taageerimayo oo 20 years olds uu dabka saarayo for his sake baan aad iyo aad uga damqanayaa. Well is that so? What then balanced the scales to make you jump into the "Neutral Corner" wise guy? You can't sing all that jazz, declare "neutrality" and accused everyone else of not resisting the occupation! An explanation is well overdue. Baashi is the most intriguing one. If I had to guess I'd say his perfect choice would be Abdullahi Yusuf with a beard. lol @ Ngonge. I think it's a case of "a beard would be nice".

Talk about stating the obvious and preaching to the converted Sir Baashi. Insults and name-calling is inappropriate and bad manners to put it mildly. The point is, you ignore Duke's repetitive bad-mouthing of everyone who opposes the Mbagathi faction (in and out of SOL), while lecturing Oodweyne for chucking back at him. How do we explain that wise guy? Man don’t you se!. Every clan runs to Addis except the winners who sat on the loot in Benadir. Secessionists did it in the middle of national war. SSDF started it all. Aideed thanks his success to finally topple the junta to Mengistu’s understanding and support. SPM went to Addis house to get some toys so it too can take part of the undoing of the Somali state. RRA won the golden cub with Tigrean gifts. The rebels did seek foreign assistance that's no secret but so did the military junta they were fighting. In fact it went beyond what the likes of SNM and used foreigners in the desperate attempt to hold on to power including Oromos fighters and South African mercenaries. Did it not beg, borrow from every corner of the globe to stay alive. When all that failed, did Gen. Barre not sign a "treaty" that surrendered KILIL5 to Mengistu? Apples for apples Baashi. There's a HUGE difference between Hikmatyar who used US assistance to win the war and an foreign-imposed stooge like Karzai, is there not? You guess who is whom in the Somali context. However you try to portray the SNM, we know likes of Muj. Siilaanyo that were forced to seek foreign help against the military junta is now an open critic of the Ethio occupation and massacres committed in Somalia with the help of the collaborating-TFG, and rightly so. If it was all about clan power what stopped him running off to Meles warlord-style when after the last SL elections? (Hikmatyar not Karzai. ) Even Meles - who was once Mogadishu - based anti Mengistu rebel leader knows the difference, does he not? I still would've given your emotional out-burst the benefit of the doubt if I never witnessed the acrobatic jump into the "neutral corner" in the critical sixth-round bout between The Courts and The Stooges. Maybe next time...

^^ What's your broblem? Would you rather this thread disappears so that no-one can read your embarrassing "Caano-boodhe Memoirs ". May all good Mujaahids of ours be remembered.

Cabdilaahi Askar isagoo hadalkiisa sii watay waxa uu yidhi “Hawl-galkii Birjeex waxa uu can ku yahay xeeladii iyo geesinimadii mujaahidiintii meesha igala baxday”. Hear hear! "Operation Birjeex" was an amazing feat that shook and embarrassed the oppressive military regime. The junta panicked and introduced measures that not only exacerbated the situation but in the end led to its collapse. Muj. Cabdilaahi Askar is still alive by the grace of the Almighty. Taking into account what he went though before and after his heroic rescue, he's a helluva an example of "if it's not your day..." Birjeex deedankeedii Laga diday kulkeediyo Degsan baan ku dhaabtay Lixle damacyadiisii Diric Ina Saleebaan Duxan baan ku dhaabtay Ifku Xaamud daariyo Khaliif doorrankiisiyo Digan baan ku dhaabtay Hurre doonnantiisii Gurey Ina Dawaarriyo Dar kalaan ku dhaabtay Islow dara-digiisii Danab Aadan Shiiniyo Dadban baan ku dhaabtay Karuur duur-xulkiisii Iyo damalki Koosaar Dedan baan ku dhaabtay... ..... ze rest is history

It's worthy cause to say the least.
