why did the pm leave though?

sad day when Sufis join the violence taking place in that desert

this obsession on puntland (Suldaanka), The Issins (JB)and an entire clan (Oodka)is really pathitic on the part of you Slanders.

Honestly, we're thinking of different stuff so ama leave that alone

suldaanka, its almost 09 and you are at who brought the TFG and a pigs farm! Seriously, brother, we don't he landers bed time stories here. updategaree informationka!

LOL, took you more then a year to bring he said she said joke. By the way, when did the knowledge of foreign languages become a prerequisite to lead Somalis, even though we all know Yusuf speaks better English then the fools you support. Lastly baaristan wax lagu "xaqiijiyay" ya sameeyey?

and are you under the impression that sharing your bed time stories will affect reality?

If you do, you would get nearly the same amount. If we had two parties, it would be the wadaads and the clannish folks, warlords are part of the wadaads.

lol, nur cade is probably older, but again, on whose authority did they sign this, surely such an agreement requires a consensus from the current parliament. I really doubt who ever signed such a deal has the mandate to make such a decision from their side.

Yeey may not accept the agreement to begin with and if that is the case, he will have like minded members of parliament. Who signed this, there is no cabinet right?

why would you not add the senators

Worse things are to come, things will only get worse if such an atrocity is excepted. The First bunch represented the entire country. That they should be reduced to having the same say as rag tag faction of a faction is ridiculous. How to incorporate them present all kind of problems, in the middle of clan divided parliament you will now have ideological division as well. Why include non governmental organizations in a governmental organization? Furthermore, if the Islamist can go shopping for like minded members, should not the other side have the same opportunity to through out all non secular members in their rank?

Originally posted by Suldaanka: 550 member parliamentarians. :eek: :eek: The small impoverished nation in east africa has more MPs than the world's biggest economy (USA) and world's largest country (Russia) and is rivaling the EU's 27 member states with their combined 780 MEPs. Actually, what we have is a unicameral parliament that will amount 550 as they are suggesting. America has a bicameral legislature, house and senate, which amounts to the nearly the same amount, 535. Russia too has a bicameral legislature, council and the duma. The federal council is 168 and the duma is 450, clearly larger then the suggested parliament for Somalia. ALgeria: BI, 389 and 144 =533 China: Uni: 2987

duke, 200 radicals in parliament might be good in the short term but bad in the long run. Further more, we all know that the overwhelming majority of theses islamist are from a single clan, will they not disrupt the balance of different Somali clans in both parliament and cabinet on which the entire TFG experiment depends?

LONG LIVE THE KING! Che, am pretty sure both burtinle and Goldagob support the new King, but why advocate for division?

Mr propaganda, when did Garowe become Mr. Yusuf's "original tuulo". Isn't he from Mudugh? Seriously though, stop hating on a 70 year old, there are more things to do with you life.

LOOOOOOL, waxay yirahdan ilaahey ban uu jihadeyna ma kuraas ba lo jihadayey?

All the countries sending warships, its looking like the wild wild west.

Thread is about: "Puntlands Election 2009". What has that got do with Somaliland? For the love of God people, stay on topic.

Dowlada and Xukumada are not the same. Basically he was saying the cabinet no longer exist= Ministers including prime minister.

Oodka, forgive my cringe worth political blindness but I have to say, if my perception its naive, yours is speculative, conspiratorial and unreasonable. What do have to go on to ascertain why you say to be the truth? On top of that, it doesn't even sound plausible. You think the the competing interest of Igad member could come to a consensus or that Americans are involved to the point telling Somalis who to make prime minister or president. and what person would seek the Somali presidency, know the conditions that come with that office only to let a neighbor tell him what to do? Peeps, you hatred of the man is deep but get real.

Originally posted by xiinfaniin: Ikhyaarta, we will reflect insha Allah all those you raised but first let us watch : Ina Yey doing what he does best... Can you please attempt a very short look at the responsibilities of the members of the Government? Clearly, the president must sign in to law and accept any appointments from the parliament. Thats basically his job man.

looooooooooooooool, silly landers

They say hindsight is 20/20 but apparently, Somalis are an exception to this. Xiin: How could he marry his ambition to rule a free Somalia with that of Ethiopia’s agenda of wanting a fragile and divided mini states in Somalia then? Quite characteristically, he conveniently ignored this how The convenient fact that some of us like to ignore is that Somalia is weak and divided. We will be that way for quite some time and the only way get out through careful, selfless hands to steer this ship. So,if it is as you say, Ethiopia needs no agenda to make Somalia what it already is and will most likely continue to do so for some time. What is more likely is, that the old man and ethio leaders have a common goal of a peaceful horn of Africa. In such a case, not only is plausible, but the only sane thing to do. When the real challenge confronted him in 2006 in the form of a legitimate opposition that come into being as a result of genuine uprising against the rule of Mogadishu warlords, Ethiopia forced itself into the issue and ultimately invaded the south in the disguise of fighting Islamic extremism. Legitimate? How So, we must have different understanding of the word. Legitimate, in my opinion and understanding of the ward, would have been for that group to accept the existing frame work and to advance their goals and agenda through parliament, not though the gun. Furthermore, Ethiopia did not push it self in to the situation. Some here willfully forget that the government was the first to congratulate the courts takeover of the capital, tried ways to find to work with, sent its most senior members to negotiate only to receive some low level members whose sole objective was to stall for time while some silly ambition of taking over the entire country was being pursued on the ground. In return for all the government has done, these crazy mullahs threatened every entity in the country from the northern regions to the government base in baidoa, jowhar, hiiraan, jubba... while some of you cheered them on. Declared jihad on everybody almost on a daily bases and when they got their as.. whopped in every front, oh ethiopia, ah ethiopia this and ethiopia that. Only for them now except that framework they have almost destroyed what was left of that already destroyed country and splinter into a hundred abu hebel groups. But the consequences for him are much dire now since Ethiopia’s latest maneuverings utilizing regional machinations give this colonel two alternatives. The first option is for him to stay on his post, which is reduced to a ceremonial post, and welcome the official arrival of Jabbuuti peace caravan. How nice, all that ish about Ethiopia, now you want Ethiopia do your bidding for you and get rid of the old man for once and all. People, get real! Abdullahi Yusuf has few more months to go and the first option requires a change in the charter of the TFG. That change, am afraid, lacks both time and the will of the parliament which supports the president. It will require a little more then the unholy alliance your your suggesting, nur, ethiopia and the courts. Nur will eventually go the way of all Prime Ministers before him, he will listen to the man who appointed or get to walkin.

congrats on the award duke
