Will they establish peace NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO. Then there is no need for them to come to Somalia.

Everyone knows that Clan leaders are docile folks, who didn’t even catch up with the 20th century forget about the 21st century. If they are indispensable to bring peace, then they would have done something in those 16 years of full chaos. Where were they then? We should drop this backward mentality of clan leaders.

His country is being bombed and he is taking trips to some Third world country…what a senile. All this man does is talk and make up any excuse which will take him out of Mogadishu.

America supports puppets. They mentally enslave weak minded individuals Aideed is a despicable vermin, who doesn’t know what he is saying half of the time. It would be so much better if he was taciturn, in that case his ludicrousness wouldn’t be known world-wide.

We have a puppet government who doesn’t even know that parts of the country is being bombed. These TFGoons are more destructive and precarious to our country than any other creature or thing. They have no control. They keep proving that fact whenever one of them opens his mouth to spit more mendacity.

The ICU had one objective,its objective was to oppose the TFG.Its existence and birth came about with the TFG.What shame is there?Peace has a price,and if that means making Corprals ministers,or warlords as MP's or even liquidating every black head that emerges as an abstacle.The President should be concerned and is concerned with one thing,and thats peace,to me and to him,the rest are un important.There is no shame in doing right,the only shame,was for the ICU to be an abstacle of peace,the peace that we all very much do need. There is so much debris you are capable of composing in one paragraph only. The ICU’s first intention was to pacify Mogadishu, bring order, disarm the militias, evict the warlords and clean-up the city and they achieved their goal. Their second intention was to welcome the TFG to Mogadishu. The TFG refused the offer bluntly without considering the well-being of the people of Somalia. The third intention of the ICU was to criticize the Ethiopian activists inside Somalia. And there last intention was to challenge the Warlord Government. You see the ICU’s first, second and third intentions had nothing to do with the TFGoons. You don’t know what shame is, you won’t even know if it bites you on your rear-end.

Originally posted by Taako Man: If you believe everything you read and hear from politicians, then you'll come to realize that taking everything literal is to your detriment and your health. The ICU as a whole is done. Never will you see Aweys, Ceyroow and Co welcomed by a government. If you choose to take literal what Geedi says then so be it. TIME WILL TELL. Surely I WILL REMIND YOU OF THIS POST WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT . What I believe is none of your concern. Again do you know that in Politics the words you declare will be used against you? If you can’t make your statements in a covertly manner then there is no reason for you to be in Politics. If Gedi says something and does the absolute opposite, then his creditability as a politician will be quite low. However I like that, the more people know that Gedi is a lying B*st*rd the better.

We have clan-worshiping Muslim claming Somalis.

I don’t know why Puntland would take such a risky move. Ooh well, when you are exploited to the bone and the majority of your people live in huts, then maybe reality will hit you in the face. Old school Somalis need to retire permanently before they sell our country.

^^^ Well said sxb

^^^ Maybe it is because he is a moderator Rudy. Play nice….

Well there are two options we Somalis have today: 1) There are those who are completely puppet individuals or groups which Ethiopia has a massive amount of influence on them. Where they don’t disobey their masters and always look down and nod their heads submissively 2) And there are those who fought back and there came thousands of the obedient Somalis walking in front of the occupational forces of Ethiopia so they could weaken other Somalis for their enemy. So why does it matter both ways we lose. It is like one is the house Neg*o and the other one is the field Neg*o, both are treated inhumanely and both are portrayed to be inferior. Nonetheless the house Neg*o believes he is superior and has more rights which makes him somewhat confident about his statues when he compares himself with the field Neg*o

That is it, if the TFG supporters don’t come to their senses, then we should all label them as mentality inefficient. America is dropping bombs like it is some sort of basketball. I wonder if Sheikh Sheriff squeaked about their whereabouts.

^^^ Sxb, you don’t know what makes me pessimistic or what makes me optimistic, so easy with your silly assumptions. You will not easily make falsified observations about my feelings to praise the Goat Doc. I am the slightest bit optimistic about anything the TFG does or says. Nevertheless I try to remain optimistic about my country. All the ICU members could come to Mogadishu and if Gedi arrests them or declines to negotiate with them then the notion of a peaceful Somalia will perish right there, right then. Sheikh Sheriff will not just abandon the other ICU members. He will make sure that his party gets the consideration they deserve. Besides you are underestimating Sheikh Sheriff, which will be a huge mistake on your behalf. And one more thing, he has welcomed Aweys, Indha-Cadde and Co when he said he wants ALL OFFICIALS of the ICU to come to Mogadishu. So define what you meaning by "welcome". Because Gedi wants them all to come to Mogadishu so they could converse. "We want all UIC officials and supporters including Sheiikh Sharrif to come to Mogadishu for the talks in Somalia," he said. The word “ALL” is very essential. I gave you the benefit of the doubt, but I am getting the feeling that you do indeed lack reading comprehension.

Taako Reading between the lines is something I know how to do, but you can’t state your assumptions of what Gedi meant. The man moved his lips. You should know that in politics people use the words you uttered against you. And sxb, Gedi could have stated his statement in a certified manner, which could have easily underscored and distinguished between the ICU officials. Besides America was planning to attack Iraq from the beginning and everyone knew that America has Special Forces in the Horn of African to track down terrorists. America never denied that. However Ethiopia and the TFGoons were denying that there were any Ethiopian troops present in Somalia soil! Some filthy liars they are. So don’t compare the gifted illusory American Intelligence with that of the Goat Doc, who is rationally short of being proficient to use words in a political demeanor.

An interesting article, we have a bunch of blind sheeps who will try to discredit these facts, which I do believe. Since there is no way Ethiopia will automatically leave Somalia without any practical reason. Ethiopians were always present in Somali territory, but now there are more of them HIV carrying creatures roaming around Somalia like it is some kind of an adventurous park. Fact: Most Somalis are more ****** than the Ethiopians. They maybe dying like flies, but they sure don’t think like flies.

^^^ Okay, my friend before I accuse you of lacking reading intellectual capacities. I will quote what the article states, so you could read it again. Maybe, just maybe you have missed that essential part of the article which will contradict your whole comment. "We want all UIC officials and supporters including Sheiikh Sharrif to come to Mogadishu for the talks in Somalia," he said. There, compare that to what you said. Gedi is welcoming all, which includes those men you have mentioned. They are the officials of the ICU. Not some bits or just several of them are being welcomed as you believe.

The TFG knows that they have no support from the people. none, zilch. The ICU was telling the TFG to leave Baidio and come to Mogadishu so they could negotiate power sharing. But the TFG ignored that welcome and decided to enter Mogadishu with Ethiopian Tanks and helicopter. I won’t mind if the ICU does the same thing now but for the sake of our country they should walk into Mogadishu with their Heads high, ready to negotiate. Insha’allah the people will welcome them back with open arms, they should thank them for the six months of utopia the ICU brought.

No sane person who has enough wisdom to make moral alternatives will glorify a man like Abdullahi Yusuf. We all know that the qabilist nomads are the least bit sane. So lets not argue much with them, just a here and there.

Duke Let me rephrase your sentence, the warlords have united and joined their forces together. There, that sounds much accurate. A single power? What is the rubbish about then? Who is attacking the Ethiopians and the traitorous goons? Sxb, you are living in lalaland.

Taako Each warlord was a threat and an occupational force to the people of the South. They have managed with the help of the ICU to chase those warlords out. But with the help of America, Ethiopia and the TFG they have all managed to come back to the same city they have terrorized. Not to forget some of those same warlords are part of the TFG. I will tell you what an oxymoron is, warlords who have killed and terrorized the Somalis are suggesting that they symbolize the Somali people and make-up the Government of the Somalia nation, and they think they could bring peace!

Ethiopia today has the upper-hand to control Somali with its pinky. Personally I won’t be surprised at all. The same people who were repeatedly insisting that there were on Ethiopian troops in Somalia, after hundreds of reports came out suggesting so and the ICU were yelling from the top of their lungs are once again insisting to overlook and ignore the danger Ethiopia possess to the Somalia nation. Ethiopia have violated the Somalia sovereignty more than one hundred times. You Somalis are cursed to make the same mistakes.

They have been there since God-Knows when. It is not a matter of them being there, but rather why. That should be given some concern.

Duke…. You must be once again sniffing some strong remedy for you have made the most outrageous statement so far. The TFG lacks major supportiveness for a prudent reason. What the TFG is made up of is see-through to anyone who isn’t blinded by the tribal fog. Sorry if you are one of the privileged individuals who are consumed by the fog. You will be in my prayers. Insha’allah.
