Originally posted by Farancab: You could keep praying for Ahlu xerta wa Anti Alshabab if it was the last hope Mr.Ahmed got. This war will end as a stalemate with the Sharif controlling North Mogadishu, the port, airport and Villa Somalia. In the end it will be the innocent people who will suffer.

Goobaha bur burku soo gaaray ayaa waxaa ka mid ah Majidka deegaanka Maxaas oo sida wararku sheegayaan gabaad ka dhigteen Ciidamo ka tirsan Al-shabaab taasoo keentay in ay rasaas xoog leh ku ridaan kooxihii ka soo horjeeday. http://hiiraan.com/n ews/2009/May/wararka _maanta13-6462.htm The true face of Al Shabab. Who runs to a mosque and uses it as a dufeeys?

We found our solution just geta all the Sufi's together and set up a the brigades of Shiekh Abdulqadir Jaylani to counter Raas Kamboni and Al Shabaab. How about distribute Shiekh AbdulKadir Jeylani's protein shake to every government solider before they go to the battle :cool:

It doesn't make sense to use a B-52 bombers on residential and populated cities. Most likely weapon of choice will be the AC-130 gunships.

Originally posted by General Duke: ^^^They are the key to destroying Al Shabaab. And eventually they will. Military leadership, disciplined militias win battles. Hard to defeat a sufi blessed with a bowl of buun and cambuulo and healthy dose of qat

It seems that every time Al Shabab fights Ahlu Sunna, they end up losing. I wonder what their secret recipe is.

Fierce clashes between Shabaab and a more moderate Islamist militia, Ahlu Sunna, in the central region killed at least five people on Tuesday in Mahas town, witnesses said. "Al Shabaab fighters ran into a mosque for refuge, but residents kept firing at them with rocket-propelled grenades," local man Aden Hussein said by telephone from Mahas, which lies southwest of El Bur, a major Shabaab stronghold since 2006. Local elders later intervened, he added, and persuaded the Shabaab gunmen to lay down their arms. The 126 rebels were briefly held captive, then released, residents said. http://www.hiiraan.c om/news2/2009/May/ba ttles_rage_in_somali a_world_calls_for_ca lm.aspx

Allahu uu barakeeyo. The rains in Middle Shabelle have killed many people.

Originally posted by Abdinasir Kadawo: ^che, I honestly believe those sleeper cells in Puntland and Somaliland alone are capable to overthrow the regimes there, if they only had the courage. If these troglodytic gangs accomplish their objectives in Mogadishu,there is nothing to stop them from over-running Puntland. Aweys has contacts in Puntland. This should be a worrying sign, unless Puntland takes concrete measures.

Originally posted by General Duke: ^^^Putnland wont send anyone we are concerned about the few brave ones there. As for Meiji adeer your clan militias have lost and they have not a clue. Sharif's clan hasn't joined the war. The war in Northern Mogadishu is being fought by Abukar Omar Adaan's militias with Hizb-ul-Islam providing support, Kooba Kudukde with his Al Shabab, and Moalin Hashi on one side VS. left-overs of the ICU (mostly Sharif's clansmen) and left-overs of Abdullahi Yusuf's Puntland Militia.

Originally posted by General Duke: Abukar Cadaan is a crazy old man he wants to get the port back, but the Al Shabaab will get rid of him too. That is the tragedy. Most of the fighting in North Mogadishu is rooted in business competition.

At least the honor of being the first Somali President to endorse the Sharia Law is something that will keep him on the positive side of history

Somalia is gonna be worse than Afghanistan. The Taliban delusional they might have been, at least had a very basic understanding of the way the world works. These anarchists think that they can bring "the light of Islam" to Alaska and Japan.

Originally posted by Kamakace Limited: Money will do the trick with the clan issue. Trust me, millions of Dollars of USD will tip the balance. Not so fast. I know from inside sources that Sharif gave 1 million USD and 1000 different types of weapons to Indocade and Goobale couple days before they switched sides. In Somalia, nothing is more powerful than the power of the clan. Not even religion.

This is not really a news. Abukar Omar Adaan's men already controlled both sites. It is just that they raised the Hizb-ul-Islam flag over their heads.

Originally posted by Meiji: Recovering-Romantics , The Imaam of Muqdisho may succeed in resolving the clan conflict in those districts but be aware that the Alshabab have foreign fighters (Afgani/Paki/Arab etc) that will distrubt any conflict resolution measures. The Imaam of Muqdisho should instruct his clansmen to secure their districts and fight any foreign soldier (whether AMISOM or Afgani/Arab/Paki) when they set foot in their districts. He should do more, and insha allah we hope he does more to prevent more massacre and displacements. Meiji, Meydad Ajaanib ah iyo kuwo kale oo islaamiyiin Somali ah oo laga helay deg. Yaaqshiid Tiro meydad ajaanib ah oo ka garab dagaalamayay kooxaha Islaamiyiinta ee kasoo horjeeda dowladda ayaa waxaa ey saakay ka heleen ciidamada maleteriga dowladda agagaarka saldhigga degmada Yaaqshiid oo ey ilaa shalay oo dhan ka soconayeen dagaalo qaraar. Ciidamada dowladda oo xalay maqribkii la wareegay gacan ku haynta guud ahaan degmadaasi ayaa saakay meydadkaasi ajaanibta ah oo lagu sheegay ilaa 7-nin kusoo qaatay gawaari si ey baaritaan ugu sameeyaan, sida uu inoo xaqiijiyay sarkaal ka tirsan ciidamada xoogga oo lagu magacaabo Aadan Shig-shigow. Sidoo kale meydad kale oo Islaamiyiin Somali ah ayaa inaya ciidamadu ka heleen goobihii lagu dagaalamay ee degmada Yaaqshiid oo ey iminka gacanta ku hayaan, waxaana meydadkaasi maleeshiyaadka Somalida ah la isugu geeyay saldhigga degmada Yaaqshiid. Isugeynta meydadka maanta ey heleen ciidamada dowladda ayaa tiradooda lagu sheegay 17, waxaana todobo ka mid ah ey ahaayeen ajaanib isugu jirta caran iyo Afrikan kale. Dhanka kale masuulka u qaabilsan Al-Shabaab dhinaca gobolka Banaadir Cali Fiidow oo maanta shir jaraa`id khadka taleefanka qabtay ayaa sheegay in uu uga digayo Somalida in ragga usoo gurmaday ee garabka siinaya ey ku sheegaan Ajaanib islamarkaana gogeeyaan, waxa uuna sheegay in raggan ey kasoo hayaameen qoysaskooda oo ey soo dayaceen si ey "cadowga" uga xoreeyaan Somaliya. Hadal haynta ajaanibta ka dagaalameysa safka hore ee dagaalada Muqdisho ayaa si weyn usoo shaac baxeysa, waxaana ka hadlay dhamaan waxgaradka, masuuliyiinta dowladda iyo culumada.

Kashka, The war in Fagax and Yaqshiid has been solved based on clan agreement engineered by the clan elders of North Mogadishu. Still think this war ain't about clan? Dagaaladii ka dhacay Isgoyska Fagax iyo Saldhiga Yaaqshiid oo qaab beeleed lagu xaliyay. Odayaal iyo waxgarad ayaa manta ku guuleystay inay heshiis ay u soo mareen qaab beeleed ku xaliyay dagaaladii maalmihii u dambeeyay ka dhacay Nawaaxiga Isgoyska Fagax iyo Saldhiga Yaaqshiid. Wararka ayaa sheegaya in heshiis is faham ah laga gaaray xiisada dagaal ee ka oogneyd qeybo ka mid ah Degmada Yaaqshiid, waxaana manta lagu guuleystay in la kala qaado Ciidamadii isku hor fadhiyay. Labada dhinac ee ku dagaalamay halkaas ayaa si qaab beeleed lagu heshiiyay, iyadoona labada dhinac oo kala ahaa Maxkamadaha Islaamka iyo Xisbul Islaam. Xiisadaha dagaal ayaa salka ku haayay gacan ku heynta Saldhiga Yaaqshiid, waxaana Odayaasha ay labada dhinac u fidiyeen googol, inkastoo mar dambe lagu balamay. Odayaal iyo waxgarad ka soo jeeda Waqooyiga Muqdisho ayaa sheegay in labada dhinac ay Ciidamadoodii kala qaadeen, isla markaana ay dib ugu laabteen fariisimahoodii hore. Tallaabadan ayaa noqon karta mid yididiilo nabadeed gelineysa dadka ku dhaqan Degmada Yaaqshiid, kuwaasoo maalmahan la daalaa dhacayay dagaalo saf ballaaran oo ka socday halkaas. http://www.jowhar.co m/main/news.php?read more=2700

Kashafa, Pray to Eritrea that Dhagaxtuur is merely bluffing. He is the same guy that eradicated the Al Shabab and Hizb-ul-Islam when they encroached into North Mogadishu following the Ethiopian departure.

Sh Omar Farukh works for the Americans and Ethiopians. He is using religion for his own purposes

Originally posted by Kashafa: ^^ To the two clannists above, We shall see. Clan may reside in your blackened hearts, but Umada Soomaliyeed oo Xalaasha ah has moved on. We shall see. Make sure you call for Ethiopian and Israeli missiles when your Tol towns are falling to the Mujaahideen. Sure. If clan resides in my blackened heart, then deceit and misuse of the religion for very selfish personal/clan gains resides in your heart.

Al Shabab are pre-programmed robots handled from Washington D.C and Hizb-ul-Islam is a fraudulent Mafia group who's only interest is power. The common denominator between these 2 group is carnage and anarchy. Sharif was warned and he ignored the warnings. He is paying the price now.
