Baashow, surely Sharif is the man of the hour. He’s effortless intelligent yet humble and modesty. Look how he managed to get the sequencing right: after the defeat of the warlords he immediately lifted the roadblocks and opened the harbor and airport. Now he declared that Courts militias will be integrated and consolidated under one command. Now by talking about the property and land issues he’s signaling a gesture that he understands the issues that matter most. No matter how his doubters dismiss his declaration as an empty talk, his understanding that this needs to be resolved is the beginning for bringing a lasting resolution to this hot issue. You see he’s challenging the most basic tenet of warlordism; political capital invested in xaraam. He’s saying to that lot we can do without. And yes they can do without, I say.

^^

Horn, you’re utterly misinformed! Need I say more my good friend?

Good news.

@waa biciid jabano ban yurara. Waryaa JB marra waaxidah ! I didn't know you could throw Somali maah-maah in to the mix! Programku waa habeen danbe ee yuu ku dhaafin saaxiib, and don't forget to report what you think about Brains performance!

Notice awoowe it’s no longer an elementary school only; it’s got promoted to high school! A humble beginning to be sure but it signals a healthy change in that city. Go Sharif, go, i say.

Mindhaa laba garaadlow kaama guro sheeko! Awoowe, the man has lost. He will go down leading a pack of warlords whom he shares neither principle nor clan. The only similarity they share is being a political puppet for Ethiopia I suppose. What a shameful legacy.

^^Adduunyo indeed !

^^Thanks Baashi! I love these stuff. Although I am perfectly fine with my simple understanding of the origins of the world, yet I am interested to know what others think; what good would humans be without curiosity?

Congrats yaa MD! Ninkaan ma aqaan laakiin mar hadduu (sanadkan) guursaday waa nin rag ah wallee .

Bisinka! Glad to hear you're alive and well. Near death experiences are not cool things to talk about. But interesting is how we forget about it (if we ever had one that is) too soon. None of us feel comfortable to be reminded about death and what it entails. But it’s real and coming, isn’t it? And we hardly plan for it. Allow na baxso!

If it were in a normal and stable Somalia I would be inclined to agree with you. But given the conditions in which Somalis are in, we need one reasonable entity that can impose order on Somalia. Mogadishu is a case in point. I wouldn’t mind having them do the same very thing in the entire southern theatre. As for the TFG I am beginning to think that it is no longer relevant more than Qaybdiid is! I would rather deal with Ethiopia than with them. Time will tell haddaan noolaano to witness it, that is.

I share your sentiments saaxiib. This looming war will be different; it will no longer be a civil war. It will be a necessary and Jihaadi war! TFG in Baydhabo, like Qanyare before them, has committed a fundamental error in aligning them selves with the defeated warlords. Their time is up!

^^Well. To begin with NGONGE is not your typical nomad. He’s one tough cookie! Instead of frightening him with wars that are distant and not new really, put him on the spot and ask him solutions. In that case we may either benefit from him or prove that he knows not. I would prefer the latter ---because if you indeed succeed proving that NGONGE does not know what he's talking about it will be quite a scene. Not intuitive but this is the kind of threat that really hurts .

Originally posted by Didi Kong: Arabic classes are more needed as every thing in Mogadishu and surrounding areas will eventually end up being reminiscent of Najd province Saudi Arabia. [/QB] ^^Closer to the truth. DK, are you opening an Arabic class thread then ?

^^If that's the only threat you could wager, the man does not live in somalia saaxiib! Come up with another credible threat...that could really hurt .

Originally posted by Jimcaale: They need not to give Ethiopia, Ina Yusuf and the proxy government a chance to cause more chaos and instability. They should be smart enough to play their card wisely. Amxaaro is not ready for urban fighting and probably won’t come to Xamar so long ICU stays out of Baydhabo. [/QB] ^^I too agree with that. And if you look at it, it’s really simple saaxiib. Courts in Mogadishu have done a superb job by defeating the warlords and opening channels of commerce in that city. On top of that, they promised and gestured peace. Not only that but they honored their word and actually went to Sudan for the peace talks to take place. Look what a disappointment they found when they got there! The old man and his TFG opted to listen the very entity whom Qanyare and other warlords listened before. Not only that but, to hide their treacherous tracks, Baydhabo’s TFG resorted to a cheap propaganda and accused these Courts of terrorism. It welcomed all the defeated warlords to its centers and held publicized meetings with them. Rumor has it that even war criminal Qaybdiid accompanied with the old man to his trip to Puntland! Alas, old habits die hard, as it were, and some people seem to have resolved to be on the wrong side of history. That Courts want to invade Baydhabo is all hype intended to justify Ethiopia’s planned presence in Baydhabo! It’s all part of a calculated propaganda yaa jamaacah. Courts should stay in Mogadishu and control their excitement, I agree. They should be careful no to be lured to take places and towns that they can’t defend, I also agree to that. Their entrance to Buur-hakaba was foolish and unwarranted. They should never repeat these adventures again if they really mean to bring the changes they talked about. But they must be in a war footing and never allow cons like Geed and the old man misread them again. Somalis are not cursed people. But damned leaders have been leading us for some time now. Somalia has suffered enough and its human misery seems to have refused to fade. But if there were ever a meaning to war, this one [the looming one] is utterly justified. I see some people here who are openly clapping for Ethiopia’s pending invasion (it’s not an invasion as such as they have crossed that imaginary border many times before). They are misreading these current events and Ethiopia won’t save their day! It never did. One thing is for sure: Ethiopia won’t be able to enter Mogadishu and having them in Baydhabo is frankly useless. Somalia’s political equation will remain unresolved, as long there are some parties who refuse and boycott negotiated settlement and continue to count on foreign help to exact favorable outcome. Mark that one down yaa asxaab! Intee niri dagaal waa xunyee nabad inoo daaya Intee niri dal iinaan lahayn dawlad ku ahaadaa!

Originally posted by NGONGE: Any of you have the words for the Ethiopian national anthem? Like a boy scout you see, I always like to be prepared for any eventuality. Good Gadiid has already started offering Amharic lessons. I guess you would be better off learning the basics of Amharic language before you begin memorizing Ethiopia’s national anthem .

@Gadiid's Amharic lessons. It may come handy for some...i must admit!

The whole thing is media hype. Neither party is ready for war at this juncture. The Courts, save some adventurous fools, are solidifying their base and consolidating power where it matters most---Mogadishu. Baydhabo’s TFG, on the other hand, is toothless and disoriented. Ethiopia is doing what a regional power is supposed to do---try to stay relevant and make threats. Their threats, I am afraid, are not credible this time around. Unless the Courts make a mistake and get lured to invade Baydhabo, Ethiopia’s threats for military invasion will remain mere shouts from their distant capital.
