Nur, Somalia, the republic, is NOT occupied. It FAILED but not occupied. That is a fact, not a fiction. What took Somalia down is not foreign occupation. Somalis took Somalia down. They overthrew a legitimate government without thinking through what the alternative would be. After the government fell, instead of holding the country together, they started killing the innocent, burning the villages, starving the needy, ultimately destroying a beautiful capital, causing unparalleled mass expulsion of the residents of Mogadishu. The cascade continued and poured unto other major cities in the south…it still continues. Emotions and clichés aside, ****** is a Somali land occupied by Ethiopia, just like Golan Heights is a Syrian land occupied by Israel. But Syria yaa Nur is not occupied. The analogy may be a bit off still the point is made. Somalia is a sovereign nation that tragically lost its center. It’ s ridiculous to act like disadvantaged rebel group when you are a nation state. And if by resistance you meant Alshabaab, you are endorsing the wrong group. You can confuse yourself thinking those whom oppose Sharif are in the business of liberating Somalia, but the fact remains that they are indeed lunatics on the fringe of Islamic theology, an ignorant bunch who have no clue what Islamic governance looks like. As they kill and maim, they too will be killed and maimed. It will be ugly, and wont please those who would like Somalia back. This group is fighting current world order using Somalia as a stage. And Somalia does not need that. It has no capacity to do so. It’s good to know however that your alternative for Somalia is alshabaab, those whom you called resistance group. Doodaadu meel la qabtay yeelanaysaa, noqon mayso raggaan damcay inaan la jeex jeexo oo sidii nin saliid macsaro marsan iga siibtey. Sharifkii dirintiisa ha la tago, oo halkaa bun ka ha lagu cuno weeyye taan wadnaa

Madoobe Nuunow Maxamed, TFG constitutional affairs and federalism, talks to the media in Galkacyo

xaaji spoke out

che, move to MN and you will save on coffee expenses. It only costs you $1 a cup at the Mall ka 24 ka.

Agree with Peace Action. Sharif should head to Garoowe. PM Omer is Somalia's prime minister. Sadly for some he is reer hebel. Caku

Sharif’s government is trying to build a nation while its opponents are tirelessly trying to destroy what Sharif is building. Sharif’s government recognizes its opponents and tries to engage with them in a peaceful manner. Alshabaab wants considers Sharif’s government dawladah riddah and fights them on that theological ground. There are no parallels here. To be sure one can always draw false parallels when none can be found. An enemy that’s resolved to permanent take Palestinian land occupies Palestine close to hundred years. Somalia though a failed state is not an occupied land. The reason it failed is primarily due to internal unrest, and not necessarily solely by outside occupation. Fatah is a decidedly secular group, Sharif’s group and even most of his Somali allies have political orientation that is Islamic in nature. Jabbuuti hosted a reconciliation conference whose outcome was the departure of Ethiopian troops from Xamar. Hence the reason the war still is raging in Xamar is not because of occupation. Fatah claimed political legitimacy when it was voted out. Fatah started the war. Sharif won the parliamentarian election hosted by Jabbuuti where all were invited. Alshabaab boycotted the peace conference in Jabbuuti, the subsequent political outcome and started the war to topple Sharif.

^^Waryee Che, adigu alshabaab baad tahay ogaantaydii even after it demolished your great city of Beledweyne This is a great development. Waxaad rabtid sheeg

Aawayye kuwaan ka kari weyney PL and TFG du ma dirirsanna? Great pics SW

...and the assertions ICG made in its report as well

Riyaale did it this week

Gheelle, war ninyahow ma eegtayba horta maad i tiraahdid

Kudos to Gaashaan. He did a good job of doing his homework on PL’s constitution first, and quizzing the ICG director on the intricacy of PL politics.

listen to the interview

^^Yes indeed. This is good news. These discussions will insha Allah close the gap between the PL and TFG. It will also strengthen the relationship between the PL state and Sharif’s TFG.

Gheelle Aw Muse is the best. Next Cara. CL needs to be tweaked and taught how to converse with more than one person. FuFu is great. It only made one mistake. Mustafa sounds that it's still in beta. Che & A%T went beyond the threshold, and can be upgraded to do wonderfull things

Fufu, dont bring the caravan into this discussion. You (as a reasonable script) and I have a similar stance on the outcome of the peace caravan. You are great script. That you malfunction one time does not take away all the good things you stand for. As for Mustafa, lets put this way you forgot one part of your body he forgot the whole.

^^

Mustafa come down awoowe. Even Hunguri agrees with me now Ceel Buur was one of the most diverse cities in Somalia if you didn't know.

^^Not christian, I agree.

^^ Being from Ceel Buur and not knowing Burjikko is akin from claiming to be from Kismayyo and not knowing warshadda hilibka
