^ The doc was published in March but the idea existed before then. Besides, 92 was a terrible year when it came to "revenge massacres". Then came the Operation Restore Hope and Black Hawk Down Fiasco. I've even seen respected members of SOL saying they "understand" people cheerleading the Ethiopian troops atrocities because of the 90's "revenge massacres" . That's the sad reality but folks are seem to be truth-shy. later I'A

Stupidh Gringo.

Lol@Xiin I’ll tell you a couple of stories that took place years ago in back in the lands of Somalis. When Islam was new to Somalis, there was a man (in Sayid’s Qardho of all places if my memory serves me right ) who saw a man praying salah for the first time. He asked a colleague as to what the stranger - making what seemed bizarre movement to him - was doing. His colleague was a man who happened to have previously travelled to what is now known as Kilil5 and had seen other Somalis praying replied “Anaa kuu aqaana, maandhow. Ciyaarstaas Tukad baa laha dhaha. Galbbeedka laga dheela. Kooh kooh iyo gooni gooni baa loo dheela.” The other story is in this book and it goes like this... Back in the late 1800s a group of French Catholics opened schools to educate the natives which in the end were used to proselytise the innocent students. When the Berbera elders found out, the school was burned down and the French missionaries chased away. After returning from abroad decades later; Xaaji Aaadan, tried to open a school which taught both Islamic and conventional western studies in Berbera. The elders were very suspicious. They sent boys to spy on his activities and one morning they saw Xaaji Aadan taking his students for a run and then to the beach for some physical exercises while facing the rising sun. The boys that were spying for the elders went back and reported what to them look like a very suspicious activity. The elders came and saw what Xaji Yusuf Adaan and the students were doing and thought they were worshipping the sun, so they decided to attack the school later that morning. Xaaji Yuusuf Aadan was injured but still turned up for prayers at the local Masjid where he was attacked again and had this poem recited for him.... Saaxiibadeena badhbaa xidhan saliibkiiye Soonka iyo salaaddoodu waa sir aan la gaadhayne.. Inkastoo sujuuddii wajiga sanka ka idlaatay Soomaali uun bay yihiin ha u salaamina e Aakhira sadkeed waa ninkii sabi u geeyaaye Saddexbay ku furan tahay hadduu sawjad leeyahaye Saliib ~ A Sahal To some looking at photos; what’s taking place in that church looks like a game called Tukad. Then again, it might just be a new innocent way of making “dialogue amongst religions”.

Qandali No alternative huh? Thought so too.

^ Qandho please contain your feverish clannish bravado. Read what's written in the link given. I say it's a million times better idea than what took place. The SNM did rule for an interim 2 years up north. It gave the chance members of your great clan to negotiate and return to places like Ceerigaabo. Why would similar thing being implemented down south by USC such terrible idea to you - considering what did subsequently take place. Waxaagi waa qiiro aad u jaban, yaa Qandho. What you have up there was Xaaji Axmed 90's solution to save the country. If you have a seen seen something better that could possibly have calmed down the volatile situation the early 90's was, please share it with us. Other wise the exit is --->

^ Deep down the anarchists know the Mujaahid was right and time has proved him so. Maybe if people listened to the likes of him all the "revenge" massacres that took place in the 90's could have been avoided. If there's anyone in here who thinks Xaaji Axmed's proposal was wrong, I challenge them to come forward and give their alternative ideas instead of the rabbit punches launched so far .

Originally posted by Peace Action: Poor Ayoub, read Amistad take, this incident shows that Puntland govt has taken the fight to pirates which is good a thing, if Gara'ad is not shutdown peacefully like Eyl. Well Amistad is a self-confessed mercenary and - like the pirates - his/her opinions can only be weighed in pounds and cents. I don't think his emotional rants are because he cares for Pirateland or Somalia for that matter, do you? There are are a lot of questionable individuals with narrow interests in these cartels from London and Virginia . This “Amira” woman even came all the way Somaliland with her wacko ideas which were turn down by Pres. Rayaale. Markaa take everything Amistad says with a pinch of salt.

C'on folks, the Sheikh has got a point. It's one thing if some Farahs are making some efforts to prove the "americaness" but going to church to pray is stretch too far even in the name of integration/assimilation.

by Laura Yuen, Minnesota Public Radio October 13, 2010 St. Paul, Minn. — Muslims in Minnesota's Somali community are condemning what they believe to be extreme views espoused by both a Twin Cities imam and the operator of a local Somali website. Upset that the two men publicly derided Islamic spiritual leaders as "infidels" for attending a recent interfaith service, followers of Islam and its peaceful tenets have rallied to speak out. The Sept. 28 multi-faith prayer service seemed innocuous enough. Christian, Jewish, Hindu and other religious leaders stood side by side with their Muslim counterparts at Central Lutheran Church in Minneapolis. They wanted to reassure the imams in the wake of anti-Islamic sentiment seemed to be sweeping other parts of the country, such as a Florida pastor's plan burn the Quran. The interfaith leaders said Muslims were welcome in Minnesota. Abdisalam Adam, a Minneapolis mosque official who attended the service, said he was touched by the gesture. "We have learned from the people of Minnesota their hospitality, openness, and tolerance," Adam said. "It's something we've always appreciated. So I thought this was another good example of that leadership, coexistence and people of Minnesota working for the good of the community." But since then, Adam has learned not everyone in his community had such warm feelings toward the event. A Minneapolis imam named Abdighani Ali went on Somali TV and radio, declaring that Somalis who attended the service were non-believers. Ali's claims were echoed online by a man named Abdiwali "Dalboon" Warsame. On his website, Warsame wrote that the Somalis who entered the church lost their Islamic faith. Adam said he and the other religious leaders were appalled. "We thought, 'Should we let it go?' " he said. "But after careful consideration, we decided we cannot let it go." While some saw the imam's comments as a vicious attack on community leaders, other Somali-Americans simply found it baffling. When Ali, the imam, appeared on a live call-in show on local Somali TV, he said the purpose of such interfaith services was to water down Islam and fold it into other religions. He said in Somali that the imams who attended the service were singing for Jesus and reading prayers as instructed on the fliers -- a claim that the imams deny. "If anyone goes there, and they stand there, and they take part in the prayers in the church, and they read from their papers, they are not Muslims," he said, according to a translation. "The person who is standing there is just like the infidels." At the Minneapolis charter school where he works as an assistant director, Ali was a lot less outspoken than his on-camera persona. He denied characterizing the imams as infidels. "No, I didn't say that," Ali said. "If the people pray, and for example, if someone goes to the church, and prays in the church, we consider them to be Christian people." Ali said he did not know Warsame, the operator of the controversial website, which many Somali-Americans say sympathizes with al-Shabaab. In numerous articles, Warsame frequently invoked Ali, crediting the imam for exposing the "scandal" carried out by the Somalis who attended the multi-faith service. Warsame responded to an e-mail inquiry seeking comment that he stands by his coverage of the event. Ali cut the interview short when pressed about the online video of his comments -- as well as inflammatory descriptions of the service found on his own website. Many Somalis-Americans, the vast majority of them Muslim, say they feel compelled to distance themselves from Ali. "To hear an imam who lives here in America say something like that surprised me," said Ilyaas Maow, editor of the Minneapolis-based Mogadishu Times news site. "This is something new to us. I've never heard imams challenging other imams, or questioning their loyalty to Islam." Maow said Somalis in Minnesota were taken aback with the statements made by the imam and the web author of the articles. "Ninety-nine-point-nine percent" of the community disagrees with the two men, Maow said. At a time when fear and misunderstanding about Islam seem to be growing in this country, Maow said he hopes the comments don't give more fodder to Americans who suspect the worst about their Muslim neighbors. Maow said many moderate Muslims feel they must speak up now, to make sure extremist ideology does not spread. "I'm concerned about this particular imam," he said. "The reason is he's a powerful speaker. Imams like him saying something like this -- it could have a negative effect. We have young people that are listening. It sends the wrong signal." But others who know Ali, the imam, say they don't believe even he buys into his own rhetoric. Many Somali-Americans say they're more in tune with extremist speech ever since federal agents began investigating the radicalization of young men who left for Somalia to join a terrorist group. News that boys were being radicalized in Minnesota came as a surprise to many Somali-Americans. But now, they say their eyes are wide open. "Now we are awake," said Abdi Mohamed, a Bethel University student and limo driver from Minneapolis who said he supports dialogue between cultures. "If we see something in our community that is extremist, we're going to call them out on it. They have to be confronted, and they have to be held accountable." Such unpopular views aren't likely to draw the attention of law enforcement. The FBI is not concerned whether people simply express extreme ideas, said agency spokesman E.K. Wilson. "As far as any FBI interest or operational interest, there is none. I mean, it's not against the law to disagree, or to voice that opinion," said Wilson, the international terrorism supervisor in Minneapolis. "But I would say it's a little bit disappointing." audio

There're folks calling the shots under the guise of "Djibouti Agreement". Then there's the 4.5 formula, Diaspora and the Pirate State. Sharmaake ticked all those boxes since he was Yey's advisor. Now there's Ahlu Sunnah in the mix. Sharif has to discuss cabinet options for the these interested parties (and others) with the potential PMs. The new PM cannot have the freedom others did if Sharif wants to come out of this in a stronger position. Chosing his advisor (an Asmara faction buddy Abdikarim Jama as Sophist seems to suggest) will back fire. There's also the hungry parliamentarians and "International Community" in the frame.

Che, this is the most hilarious story since Gabre slapped Yey. Usually Xiin, Baashi or LST would come to the rescue of Yesters but they must have shares in the Garacad Cartel.
