I know realize that this LB nick is our Aw Tusbaxle. Ilaahay amarki Aw Tusbaxle tuuryadiisu xiin iyo Baashi ma dhaafto

looool@Qarshe-Hambade. Good one ya Baashi!

This is not a good news. Reasonable people understand though that if it were up to the somali people in the North, this would not have happened. When your center falls, you just have to tolerate this humiliating relationship with Ethiopia or with any other interested parties to survive! I dont blve the admin in Hargeysa hates Oromos or ONLFs. They commit these undignified crimes, just like PL does, to survive. Dignity lies in the return of Somali state. Once unity returns, Somalis will once again regain their lost sharaf IA.

North, if you are having problem with optimism, you really do have a problem ! Look bro, lets not get lost in the fringe discussions of getting to a peace agreement. If you agree with the drive for peace between major Somali factions then how long it takes is just one minor factor in that big equation adeer. What I was trying to shoot down is the notion of counting down one particular clause in the Jabbuuti agreement, and declaring the whole thing dead. That’s just not so saaxiib! The reason it takes so long is precisely because the nature of the Somali conflict: mistrust and deep divisions plus external meddling and interference. And we will overcome insha Allah!

lool@ caught up in the optimism. The final agreement was not signed. There has been lower level meetings since then to flesh out the security and political detialis. There will be a meeting in Jabbuuti this month i heard. Marka kacbada lagu duceysto baa heshiisku dhaqangelayyaa adeer... che, there is imtixaan here adeer. These are prety obvious stuff!

^^How many times should we tell you brother: the final agreements was never signed! It will be insha Allah!

Originally posted by La Bombonera: You and Xinn, are both the immemorial owners of half-truths and rank hypocrisy. Those ^^are words of an angry and broken man! It’s sad the brother felt the need to conclude his argument with a load of insults! You can be livid with Ina Yusuf and remain grieve-stricken as long as you want adeer. But there is a growing need for Somalia to move on. And move on she must!

^Miskiin! The minute you found out that the man is not from your clan, you lost interest. And that is sad Ayyoub! Burco is a somali city, and does not represent qabiil! As for Redka's question, it's irrelevent! Argue on the merits of Dr Bashir's argument if you will and take a stand adeer!

ONLF leadership deserves praise for standing united and for facing up to the ethnic cleansing campaigns of the Meles regime; but they need to accept that the struggle is still very much localised. They need to understand that the struggle needs to be revamped. They must understand that without the people of Shinile, Jigjiga and Liben joining in the fight, victory will be delayed, or when delivered will be too costly. The traditional argument for not changing the name into something more unifying does not wash anymore. No one will mistake the home-grown liberation struggle for an external drive by Somalia to annex territory at this particular time, when such a state is not in the neighbourhood. The writer is not so naive to assume that such a move will necessarily translate into a vibrant unity and common purpose among the Somalis colonised by Ethiopia; and is mindful of the complex clan and political divisions that might deter the ascribed transformation. Yet, as many said before, it would have been a win-win situation if ONLF changes its name. The changing of its name should, however, only serve as a temporary measure to accommodate the concerns of other nationalist Somalis in the region. It is not an end by itself. The organisation will need to vent its genuine goodwill with more transparency and enhanced transference of its objectives, ideals and policies to the wider public. It will have to be an organisation for all, not the old bottle that will merely pour out some of its former contents to bring in few more drops of mixable liquid. This is a brilliant write up. The author seems to possess a visionary quality and a keen understanding of the intricacy of that regions clannish-matrix. I like it. I too will comment on it inshaa Allah!

^^Baashi, keep me posted on this ! Aniga iyo Nuune qol noo sii gogol awoowe!

^^Welcome Baashi. Let them talk this one out. There is no harm in talking. And remember short of winning a decisive victory one has no choice but to engage his enemy. Awoowe it is the way of the world. Baashi, the original author of the dirin discussion, summed it up..

^^Being livid with your leader is sometimes wax bannaan. Xaq baad ugu leedahay adeer

^^lool@voting booth in xiins caravan! No doubt that it will be one day! Folks, somaliland is not going anywhere. Riyale knows it. And I suspect even good Majnoon Layla knows it too. The thing is the masses are being misled here.

^^Greeting Ibtisam explains it. The elections are ours saaxiib, and that i agree with you!

loooool@Red Sea's uncle in Kismayo uncle in Kismayo won't qualify to vote! Waraa Abtigiis, saaxiib maxaa kugu dhacay? FCW? Who are you appeasing today! Tollow waa tuma

^^I have no quarrel with that yaa Che! I met this friend of mine few months ago in Seattle, and what he told me was quite a revelation to me. I think it’s commendable. Lest Horn thinks, this thread of his irritates some people, odaga aan layrta u bannayno!

^^Che, tawbaddu waa muhiim saxib!

Habaarkii carabkaa nagu dhacay wallee... رب فرق القوم كأ نهم علي آفاق الأرض نجوم

I have a freind who saw Siyad Barre in his last days in Nigeria. He told me the man spent his time worshiping Allah. When I went his home, my friend told me, whilst most of his relatives were watching the news or sport matches, he was in his secluded room, worshipping his Allah. It's those days that this friend of mine described that are worth remembering, and not his tenure as a dictator of Somalia! Allow kuu naxariiso.

Acuudka!

1. " yaa is heysta" Nurow, aan dhiiradee, waxa is hayyaa waa soomaali. Baabah bay iska dhigeen. Ku dhawaad 18 sano bay is dilayyeen. Welina waan isdilayyaan. Iyagay ahaayeen wixii is qaxiyey oo is bililiqaystay oo dhulkoodii bur-buriyey. Iyagay ahaayeen waxaa tafararuqa iyo bur-burka ummadnimadooda horseeday. Ilaa maantana waxaa wadaa waa iyaga. Sababta ay u dirireen welina u dirirsanyihiin maaha inay kala diin yihiin. Maaha in qaarkood gaala yahay qaarkalena muslim yihiin. Sababta ay u dirirsanyihiini waa tuhun iyo ciilqab dhexdooda yaal. Waxaa aad usii fogeeyeyna waa hoggaan xumo. Hoggaanxumo dhan walba ah! Waxaan u arkaa dad muslimiin ah oo xarbul ahli dhex maray. Hadday diriraan oo weliba sida foosha xun ee ay u dirireen ay dhacday shisheeyana ka faaideystay waxaa ii muuqda in sida Sh.Bashiir ku taliyey xalka si xikmad leh lagu raadiyyo.Ujeedadu waa inay ahaattaa in dadkan la badbaadiyyo:iyagana in lakala badbaadiyyo, cadowgoodana laga badbaadiyyo. Hadda sida wax ku socdaan hadday ku socotto fitnadii qabiilka ku dhisnayd ee soomaali intaan ka reebtay xattaa kuwa diinta magaceeda ku dirirayya bay gaaraysaa. Ifafalaheedu waa muuqda haddeer. Meesha sartu ka quransantahay waa qorigan xalka la mooday ee la rabbo in soomaali lagu kala saaro. Waxaa shakki lahayn in somali cadow leedahay. Ethiopia waa naga il heshay. Waxa u yeertay waa soomaali, waxay ugu yeerteenna waa soomaali kale. Xammar kaliyya ma joogto. Galkacyo laga bilaabo ilaa Berbera xiriir hoose iyo mid sare intaba waa ku leedahay. Dadka la shaqqeeyyaa gaalo maaha. Intii iyaga diinta laga saari lahaa waxaa ka habboon in waxa u geeyey meesha laga saaro. Waagii somali istiqraar iyo amni heshanna oo caddaalad aan leexsanayni dhacdo hala xisaabtamo. Laakiin maanta xisaabtan iima muuqdo. Waxaa ii muuqda waa in sidii kifaaxan looga lib gaari lahaa tanaazul ufuqiisu sarreeyo la gaaro. Oo ay waliba cidda wacyiga lehi tanaazusho. Dadka dirirayya maanta qaarbaan marka halkudhegyada lagasoo tago fahamsanayn waxay u dirirayyaan iyo waddadii loo mari lahaa. Kuwaasi qabasho bay leeyihiin, taasaana taageero u ah. Hadafka saxdaa waa in dawlad ka tarjunta qiyamta ummadda la helo. Haseyeeshee haddii qofkii kula murmaba aad layso oo disho, qiyamta aad hiigsanayso runtii waa ka jabayyaan. Dadka saaxadda dagaalka jooggaa waa macduuriin aniga agtayda, laakiin waxaan macduur ahayn qofka haysta jawwii uu ku fekerro oo inta garbaduub u xiray maankiisa raba inuu xaqaaiqda iyo fitnooyinka soomaali haysta kusoo koobo faragelinta Ethiopia. Mid hoosta ka xarriiq, waa arrin sunnooyinka alle ka mid ah: Inta aan rabno inaan sidaan hadda nahay dawlad ku noqonno, waa adkaanaysaa inaan Ethiopia iska celinno. Waa in la beddelaa wasaailkii lagusoo fashilmay oo colka waraf lagu dayyaa... edit: waataa jawaabta yaa is hayya.

NG, also there has been meetings between the two parties in S Africa. I think those meetings are begining to bear some fruits.

DF=Dawladda Fedaraalka=TFG. This article reinforces what i have been saying all along. Namely that the main heshiis is not signed yet. Sharif is saying that Oct. 25th will be a significant milestone toward that end. Check this: Sheekh Shariif, oo ku sugan dalka Yemen ayaa sheegay in heshiiska ugu dambeyn lagu saxiixi doono dalka Saudi Arabia, kadibna uu noqon doono dhaqangal ay fulinayaan mucaaradka iyo DF..

Gudoomiyaha isbahaysiga ARS Sheekh Shariif Sheekh Axmed ayaa rajo wanaagsan ka muujiyay kulanka lagu wado inuu Jabuuti ka dhaco [Oct 25, 2008] kaasoo ay isku arkayaan DF iyo ARS. Sheekh Shariif, wuxuu sheegay in wadahadalada u socda ARS iyo DF laga gaaray guulo wax ku ool ah, isla markaana lagu wado in lagu saxiixo shirkan heshiiskii horay loo gaaray. "Kulanka dhacaya waxaa lagu saxiixayaa heshiiskii la gaaray, kaasoo ay qodobadiisu ka mid yihiin bixitaanka ciidamada Ethiopia, xabadjoojin iyo weliba ka shaqeynta nabada Somalia" ayuu yiri Sheekh Shariif. Sidoo kale Sheekh Shariif wuxuu sheegay in shirka ka dhacaya Jabuuti ay ka qaybgeli doonaan xubno ka socda beesha calaamka, kuwaasoo uu hogaaminayo ergayga gaarka ee Qarammada Midoobay u qaabilsan arimaha Somalia Ahmadou Ould-Abdallah. Gudoomiyaha ARS wuxuu sidoo kale ka dhawaajiyay in shirka looga doodi doono burcadbadeeda iyo dhibaatooyinka ay ka wadaan biyaha Somalia, iyadoo lagu soo qaadi doono kaalinta beesha calaamka ee kaalmeynta dadka Soomaaliyeed iyo gaarsiinta mucaawinooyinka. Sheekh Shariif, oo ku sugan dalka Yemen ayaa sheegay in heshiiska ugu dambeyn lagu saxiixi doono dalka Saudi Arabia, kadibna uu noqon doono dhaqangal ay fulinayaan mucaaradka iyo DF. Gudoomiyuhu, wuxuu uga mahadceliyay madaxweynaha dalka Yemen Cali Cabdalla Saalax kaalinta uu kaga jiro dib u heshiisiinta Somalia iyo sida uu uga fikirayo nabad iyo daganaasho ka dhasha Somalia.
