Samurai I'm just pointing out the inconsistencies to your cousin.It has nuthin to do with the subject matter but was rather a lil dip I took into the not so far past.Anyways where the hell have you been waan yaabanaa oo waxaan islahaa waar yaryarka xagey ka soo galeen , show odeygii baa maqnaa.Rag kala bax oo waxey noqteen mid darwish sheegtey iyo mid baroordhiiq la soo boodey.Bal arrimee oo aduunkan madaxa loo rogey oo mijaha ku rooraayo meel qabo:) Anyways Good to see you back.

Baashi said Gediid, Was it Somalilandnet? or was it ur uncle who might have told u 'duriyada' are always right and shouldn't be second guess it? help me out here...will u? Time will tell saaxiib Wax badan baa ka danbeeyey...maatadii le'etay iyo gefefkii dhacay waxa ka danbeeyey in la gartay in aan qabiil qabiil ka adkaan karin. Finally someone with a bit of common sense.Baashi, will you tell the rest of your gang in here even with a 40 year headstart no one qabiil can dominate another as seen in our recent history;) Che said Gediid....I guess da tragedy of Xamar 91 means something else to yu. yu think Sland army can achieve da same thing in SSH...LOL... ethnically cleansed, and kill everyone remotely look Plander(Qabiils)I guess everyone is finally showing their true color. Saaxiib if you are a student of Somali history you will notice a single startling denominator in all till you figure what that is I will wait patiently for you............ *Hint* Ina Abdulle Hassan,Siad Barre,Ina Dufle,Morgan and Gaani Sophist Said Si kastaba xaaladu hanoqotee, dagaal dhacaya ma uu jiro. Waxaan goolaaftan ayaa layiraahdaa. Fu'aad ilama aha inuu leeyahay xiniinyo uu kudagaal galo. Markii ilaadeeradii lagu diley Sanaag ee SNM laayeen, xamar ayuu khamriga iyo Jaadka ku jalabudayey-- marka ma haduu xiniinyo soo iibdadey waaba yaab eh? Its so unfair when everone cries VICTIM...even worse when the perpetrator screams victim...... Fardo la isugu joogo maxaa la isaga faanin? Correction Fardo leysku hayo maxaa leysku Faniin

Baashi Where did I hear this b4?????

Nonetheless, if it is a war that is to settle the matter, and you wish to rejoice, believe you me it shall not be pretty – and your uncles shall ration the Togdheer mud for years to come. We will let the wise ones come forth and speak for now, shall we? Samurai Haye ma faankii baad bilowdey already.....And I thought the bravado you showing today has LOOOONG been extinguished in Xamar............Ma wax baa intaa ka dambeyeey.

Originally posted by Baashi: Samurai, Demilitarize the zone for the good of the residents there. I repeat this again and I dare to say we should take the initiative by recalling Af-gaduud back to his barracks. This is not a unilateral disarmament but a shrewd political move that will toss a ball between Siilaanyo and front line residents including Buurmadow on one hand and Riyale handlers on the other hand in yet another football rematch political play in Hargeisa. Baashi You portray them like they are a bunch of kids with no sense of direction nor political knowledge who will dance to any tune....Trust me saaxiib a jump ball thrown in Garowe will only land in the dust to dirty the feet of the person who threw it.

Dawaco ayaa laga hayaa walee reer aan ogey weligood ma guraan.Guys I'm surprised to see how you have shifted the argument away from Morgan to the SNM veterans and then slowly dissect away at the whole tribe and then like the great teacher himself Divide n Conquer.It has been tried b4 but with no success. Like my old history teacher would tell me back in day......STICK TO THE SUBJECT MATTER.Its more an interesting read.................

Cant remember how long ago I heard this but its still very funny....

Samurai You want a resolution ,well here is mine.... The truth lies in a vote.....ONE MAN ONE VOTE Lets then see where the peoples faith lies in. The "so called politicians" from these areas can not be trusted at all,they spend their political life on the highway between Hargeysa, Garowe and Mogadisho selling themselves off to the highest bidder....

Its unfortunate to see people of such calibre resort to the old Somali disease of qabiil and qabyaalad.Instead of advocating for a peaceful resolution ,they scream tribal innuendos, masking it under Somali nationalism or what ever other fancy term one might come up with. Ina Riyaale and Abdillahi Yusuf both do not care of Las canood,they dont give a rats a$$ about what happens there or who dies there,both will enjoy the comfort and peace they have in Hargeysa and Garoowe long after the war has been concluded and people have died for no other apparent reason other than 2 dumb brutal men whose only aim is to divert growing dissent among their supporters or simply because they know no other way but war.I dont think it requires an Einstein to reach such a simple conclusion.Some in here are trying hard to defend a "Wag the Dog" type of scenerio looking all stuupid while the real situation is played out with live ammunition. My suggestions plain n simple, please before you go helter skelter in your comfortable couches living off welfare checks and shoving down our throats pure BS of who is better than who in this matter take a few moments and think about how many innocent folks will die as the result of a war??????????

A very happy birthday to the one and only Malaika May you live long to celebrate a 100 more birthdays.

I can only but laugh knowing the predicament that you are in.I would however suggest you take the ugly sister to a plastic surgeon ,have the surgeon do some work on her to make her the least presentable to potential mates,markaas I think there wont be any reason for the ugly sister to continue badmouthing the cute one.

So what do you say to those who think Morgan is a HERO?????

Did this end in a draw by any chance????

Horn There was once an ugly girl and a ravishingly beautiful one in the same house,both in search of a beau.They made sure they both went to all the weddings in order to get noticed by a nice gentleman but unfortunately while the cute one would get a thousand offers the ugly girl would never get a glance.This overtime infuriated the ugly one and she decided spreading rumours about the beautiful one but like they say wax Ilaahey qorey no human can stop it.Markaas my point waa iska caadi while you my friend is at the bottom of a bottomless pit dark and dirty we are at least trying to make the world understand there's more to Somalis than the savagery they have come accustomed to seeing on CNN from you know where.We will pray for you to get your sh!t together just because we can't stand your pathetic jealousy......

How true is this cartoon.It appeared in Haatuf a daily out of Hargeysa....

Here's another article from the Washington Post Enjoy In Africa, What Does It Take to Be a Country? By Jeffrey Herbst Friday, January 2, 2004; Page A21 At least a small part of the future of Africa is being played out in Somaliland, the northwest portion of Somalia that declared its independence in 1991. In its bustling but impoverished capital of Hargeysa, the most striking contrast with most African cities is the sense of order. Police -- who, given their salaries, are almost volunteers -- stand in the hot sun and direct obedient drivers. Money-changers sit on the side of the street with huge piles of cash visible, waiting for customers. Order is supposed to be the defining characteristic of a state, but Somaliland is recognized by no country in the world as a sovereign entity. Instead, the world insists on clinging to the fiction that Somalia has a government that rules over a united territory. Understanding why the world pretends that Somaliland does not exist tells us much about the foibles of the international politics of recognition. Somaliland was a British protectorate during the colonial period. In 1960, during the rush to decolonization, Somaliland was independent for five days before joining with former Italian Somaliland to create the Somali Republic. In 1989 the government of thug-President Mohamed Siad Barre declared war on Somaliland because of fears that the Somalilanders wanted to go it alone. Government fighters, taking off from the Hargeysa airport, systematically bombed the city, destroying just about every building. In an event all but unnoticed by the international community, 50,000 people were killed and approximately 500,000 of the population of 2 million became refugees in neighboring Ethiopia. For several years, strife and conflict continued, but Somaliland persevered. Order was gradually restored and a government formed; the refugees returned and embarked on a long process of rebuilding. In 2001, 98 percent of voters opted in a free and fair election for a new constitution that boldly proclaimed the case for independence. Somaliland then had successful, internationally monitored, local council elections in 2002 and a free and fair presidential election in April 2003. The presidential election was most notable because the ruling UDUB party, led by President Dahir Rayale Kahin, won by only 217 votes out of almost 500,000 cast. The opposition party KULMIYE challenged the tally but, in a moment of extraordinary responsibility given Somalia's history of having weapons resolve almost every conflict, eventually accepted the results. Somaliland is planning parliamentary elections this year (the legislature is currently appointed). At that point, it will have a far more impressive democracy than most African countries. One would think that the natural response of the outside world to the extraordinary accomplishments of the Somalilanders would be respect and recognition, especially because Somalia still does not have a government and is still in absolute ruins a decade after one of the most expensive humanitarian interventions in history. That is not the logic of the Horn of Africa. About the only thing that the southern Somalis can agree on is that they do not want Somaliland to secede. The rest of Africa has not been of any more help. One of the decisions that African leaders took at independence was to retain the irrational boundaries they had received from colonialists, because they could not think of anything better and because they thought that any credence given to self-determination would cause the continent to descend into chaos. The permanence of boundaries has become a major asset for African leaders who do not have to prove that they control their territories or even that they are a legitimate government in order to be granted international recognition and sovereign equality. The Somalilanders made their own peace without the benefit of international mediators and conflict resolution experts. Of course, they still face extraordinary problems. Literacy may only be 30 percent; education for girls is left to Koranic schools; significant parts of the government are corrupt; just about all men have weapons at home and a good many of them spend much of their income and afternoons chewing kat leaves, an addictive stimulant imported from Ethiopia. In addition, the recent killing of an Italian nurse and a British couple raised concerns across Somaliland that it is still vulnerable to terrorist attacks from those who are determined not to let secession go forward. Nevertheless, recognizing Somaliland would be a strong signal to the rest of Africa that performance matters and that sovereignty granted in the 1960s will not be an excuse to fail forever. Few regions of any African country actually want to secede; thus the world could recognize the achievements and legal idiosyncrasies of Somaliland without experiencing massive disruptions of Africa's map. The Somalilanders, almost unanimously, ask what more they can do when the international community continues to recognize Liberia, Sierra Leone, Democratic Republic of the Congo and other anarchic, violent places as sovereign units. It is time to give them an answer. Jeffrey Herbst is chairman of the department of politics at Princeton University. © 2004 The Washington Post Company Here's the link to the article

sorry Jamal Gediid time now Here's the song HOOYO by Hadraawi.He composed this song while he was in Labaan Jirow(sp) jail sentenced by Afweyne for dissent.He was held incommunicado and no one really knew where he was being held.After several years of trying to see her son,Afweyne finally relented and ordered that she be taken to her son.After she saw the terrible condition of her son she held him in dhabteeda.Before she left the jail Hadraawi wrote this poem on her Garbasaar. It goes like this: Hooyooy la'aantaa; Adduunyadu hubaashii habeen kama baxdeenoo iftiin lama haleenoo dadku uma hayaameen dayax heego joogoo sida haad mafuuleen xiddig hawd ka lulatoo hawo laguma gaadheen hubka laguma tuureen cirka hirar ka muuqdoo ruux aad hagayso usha mid aad u haysaa Hilin toosan weligii ka habaabi maayo hooyooy addoomuhu halkay maanta joogaan adigow horseedoo intaad hanad xambaartee haaneedka siisee horaadada jaqsiisee habtay baan xisaab iyo tiro lagu heleynoo Marka aad nin hiillo laga baqo hashiisiyo halyey diran dhashaabaa hooyo lagu xasuustaa marka aad nin hoo-loo gurigiisa habaqluhu isku soo halleeyoo hayntiisa quudhoo hor Illaahay geystiyo lama hure dhashaabaa hooyo lagu xasuustaa Marka aad nin himilada hilin toosan mariyoo hir markii la gaaraba ku labaad hilaadshoo haga maatadisoo & la higsado dhashaa baa hooyo lagu xasuustaa Marka aad nin hoogiyo ka hor tago dagaalkoo garta hubin yaqaannoo xaqa hoos u eegoo halistiyo colaadaha dabka hura bakhtiiyoo ku hagoogata dhiigoo dadka kale hagaajoo kala haga dhashaa baa hooyo lagu xasuustaa Markaad hoobal caaniyo hindisa farshaxanoo hab-dhaca iyo luuqdiyo hawraarta maansada heensayn yaqaaniyoo Rabbi hibo u siiyoo labadaba hannaanshiyo hal abuur dhashaa baa hooyo lagu xasuustaa Dumar iyo haween baa nolol lagu haweystaa kuwa lagu hammiyayee sida hawd caleen weyn rag u wada hammuume ishu halacsanaysaa hablahaaga weeyee marka guur la haybshee gabadh heego dheeroo hoobaan la moodoo karti iyo hub qaadloo quruxdana ka hodaniyo hufan laga aroostaa hooyo lagu xasuustaa Hooyooy la'aantaa higgaad lama barteenoo hooyooy lan'aantaa hadal lama kareenoo ruuxaad habinoo kolba aanad hees iyo hoobay ku sabinoo hawshaada waayaa hanaqaadi maayee hoygii kalgacalkee naxariistu hadataay Hooyo dushaadaa nabad lagu hubaayoo hooyooy dhabtaadaa hurdo lagu gam'aayoo hooyooy taftaadaa dugsi laga helaayoo waxaa lagu hal maalaa hooyo ababintaadee hayin lagu badhaadhaay hogol lagu qaboobaay gogol lama huraaneey dugsigii hufnaantaay hidda lagu arooraay Intaad hooyo nooshahay hambalyiyo salaan baan hanti kaaga dhigayaa hamrashiyo xaq-dhawr baan dusha kaa huwinayaa hooyo dhimashadaaduna hoogeyga weeyoo Weligay hoggaagaan ka dul heesayaayoo hiyiga laabtaan kugu haynayaayoo hengel baan u xidhayaa inta haadka duushiyo idil habar dugaaggee IFKA HIBO KU NOOLOOW AAKHIRO HALKII ROON

Check this out....Ma run baa mise waa riyo A response to Somalis Infuriated By Religious Persecution Claims I read Somalis Infuriated By Religious Persecution Claims, with great disbelief. I am not sure where Ali Halni, the writer of the article I am responding to, was when twelve Somali Christians were murdered for their faith in Mogadishu from 1994-1996. Many of these Somali Christians were well-known and honorable citizens. Their only fault was their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. I am writing this response with great knowledge and experience. I was pastoring the house church in Mogadishu in which the murdered saints belonged to—I was their pastor and they were my flock. Ali Halni and the Somali Sheiks he quotes are simply in denial—there are thousands of Somali Christians in Somalia and I know many of these underground believers who cannot show their faith in public for fear of their faith. To say that there are not Somali Christians in Somalia is a shameful claim. It was in 1994 when the severity of the persecution against the Somali Christians skyrocketed. Somali Muslims lashed out against a small house church in Mogadishu where I was co-pastoring. Liibaan Ibraahim was the first Christian martyr. He was shot to death one early morning when he was reporting to work. He was a nurse by training. Dr. Ahmed Gobe was next Somali Christian to be murdered. He was shot one evening when he was returning from his clinic. His bullet-ridden body was found the next morning. Another member of our underground church who was martyred was Mohammed Haji. He was a former university professor who was educated in Canada. Mohammed was rebuilding the school system in Mogadishu that suffered under the civil war. He was then kidnapped and assassinated by Somali Muslim fanatics. Another Somali Christian to be murdered was the famous Sheekh Doon. He and his wife were shot and killed in their bedroom in KM.4 area when some gunmen had broken into their home one night. Their children escaped physical harm. Another Somali Christian member, Saleebaan Mohammed, was snatched from the bus he was riding home from work and was executed publicly in broad day light near Mogadishu University. The Islamists who committed this horrible murder held a long sermon over Saleban’s body chronicling how he supposedly misled many Somalis by converting them to Chrsitainity! Only two members of our underground church in Somalia, have survived the carnage, myself and another believer. The murderers are still roaming in the streets of Mogadishu with impunity. The local authorities are not holding them responsible but the Lord will. Neither denial nor persecution will destroy the Somali Church. Our risen Lord, Jesus Christ, is her Protector and he will make sure that the gates of hell will not prevail her. The Islamic scholar, Youssef Torhami, is not a spokes person for the Somali Church. His challenge to the Barnabas Fund “to come up with a trace of a single Somali Christian citizen in Somalia” is simply unrealistic at the best and malicious at the worst; who will guarantee the security of that single Somali Christian in lawless Somalia? However, I am a Somali Christian leader and I am willing to meet you--drop me a line if you are serious. God has accepted those martyrs into His glorious Kingdom of Heaven. They were faithful to Jesus Christ and to His Testimony until the end. As Jesus said in the Book of Revelation chapter 2, “Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life.” May God grant that those murderers will come to see the light that Jesus Christ is Lord, may they ask Jesus Christ to forgive them of their sins, or they will burn and suffer eternally in the lake of fire, the second death. For God alone has power over the second death. Peace & Milk Brother Warsameh Evangelist Somali Christian Fellowship bwarsameh@yahoo.com
