lol Ameenah, I am a proud faarax - citizen of Southall borough of Somalia - UK. I didn't use to live in Southall but there's nothing more better than to live in Southall. It is like having a sense of community. Southall is a place where every faarax will greet you with " Haa! Haa! abaa" and thats why i love it.

Mujahid - I think i will continue. If it discomforts you then thats too bad coz others seem to enjoy it.

Mujahid, i didn't knew you were such a mobile fanatic too. Remember when first the Erikson t18 came out? I was working in a mobile shop and these somali fellas tricked us very cool lol. So from that day i made nokia my fav'rite. My second favrite being semens sl42e i remember storing loads of mp3s on it and bragging about it till the nokia manufactured a model with the same funtions. Back to the game I choose NOKIA NOKIA 8310 or SEMENS SL42e?

lol... Let me make this story short ... Do you nomads remember 1997/8? Hehe, Somalinet chat was like whoa! ? I remmeber it well coz i met up with this half Eritrian/Arab girl, she was driving me nutters with expenssive phone calls. Hell she was rich too, calling me from her Orange mobile to my Vodafone mobile for 2 hours (and those days the calls were 50p a min) that showed how money-wet she was. Did i mentioned her dad was an architect lol? Anyways, one day we met up face-to-face and the next day she invited me to have lunch with her family. I wasn't planning to get married to her anytime soon but she stood up as we were in the middle of lunch and announced to every1 that me(JamaaL+11) and her are thinking of tieing the knot, and that was it for me....(ofcourse as a joke i use to say i will marry you) I couldn't say anything coz i was embarrassed and i had chunk of food stuffed in my mouth. My eyes were poping out like "you dont wonna know". I really liked that girl and i could say no infront of everyone but the next day I kindly asked her to seek another man ready for marriage. ---I just don't believe in marriages through the net--- PS: the girl was born in Muqdishu and her father, grandfather and great grand fathers were born in Somalia too...She speaks more Somali than i do

Idi amiin sxb welcome to Somalia Online first... I will choose HILIB ARI QARE or QUMBE

lol lakkad, i think its my turn to answer - NOT

winter(atleast those white chix will cover themselves up) iga qaleey or Ga'igasiiso waraa (difficult one huh!)

Mandeeq, i know it can be difficult but it takes a personal effort to contribute to safe-guarding our beloved land. Ofcourse we can all sit back and hope things to change but change has to come from us(Somalis), no one will come from another world to help us protect our eco-system. I hate to go into politics, coz some times evironment and politics can be involved with each other. No one seems to care about anything nowadays. After 12 years of a brutal civil war, it now looks like the apitite ti fight and kill is getting stronger. Wars in every part of Somalia these days and that makes it even harder. Insha-allaah everything is gonna be alright.

shujui, you are right.... I was trying to inject something of relevance to the discussion tables of my fellow Nomads. What astonished much me was how the petrolium companies coverted intended aims to look like a humaniterian operation, many people were fooled. It is true that there were some starving Somalis by then but they conducted their operation cleverly like a hollywood movie, quite an interesting approach was the one they employed. They showed the world dying/starving Somalis and while the world(including American well-wishers) was shock by the images streaming through their tellies, a much more sinister was being plotted under their nose. We know what America is capable of doing. It can do almost everything thats in the best of their interest, be it kicking a dog in the back side or preffixing their surnames with Gad-damn-it (Gorge Bushie). But some years back (around 1994) there were some rumours going around of nucleur waste being dumped in some parts of Somalia. It was under-taken under an joint operation wof some un-named American firms and a wing of the italian mafia. I dont know much about the story but it could well so that you have heard more about it? Cerntainly, one of my friends went back to southern Somalia and told me of how there had been an atmospheric change resulted suspectedly by these hazardous dumpings of nucleur waste. In the north, i was listening to a radio broadcast by the BBC describing a scene of thousands upon thousands of dead fish floating in the sea shores. No one really knows what had caused the death of these fish, but is claimed to have something to do with pirate fishermen using sophisticated explossives to kill and trap all kinds of fish. We surely don't know. On the other hand, deforestion of many wood-lands or forests in Somalia continiues at an alarming rate, the question is whats behind it? who is encouraging these mass deforestations? SEPADO, which is a non-governmental organisation that is concerned with the environment compiled a report about Somalia, and from the information they've gathered, it is possible that some of the well-known plants that we use to familiar with as kids could disapear in few years time. Soon, we might not find "mareer" or even the "dhalool" which is burnt for charcoal and transported to the gulf countries. The cut-downs or deforestations has brought with it soil erosion, the upper fertile land is being blown away by dusty winds, resulted by failures of sessional rains. I know it is hard to imagine fighting for the invironment when even humanity itself isn't in safe hands, but the environment has no voice of its own. I just dont wonna go back to Somalia with my kids and fail to see or find "sagaaro" or even "qurac". It is a hunting thought that keeps getting in my way everytime i think of Somalia. Lets speak and save the environment.

Below is an article which clearly identifies the motives behind the American intervention to Somalia. There were many theories that came into light when America's operation embarrassingly failed. Here i'd like to gather some of the more useful articles, case studies and books that deal with Somalia's issues more directly, with evidence to proof it. ----------------- Copied without permission from: The Los Angeles Times, January 18, 1993 OIL COMPANIES TO BENEFIT FROM SOMALIA PACIFICATION By Mark Fineman MOGADISHU, Somalia - Far beneath the surface of the tragic drama of Somalia, four major U.S. oil companies are sitting on a prospective fortune in exclusive concessions to explore and exploit tens of millions of acres of the Somali countryside. That land, in the opinion of geologists and industry sources, could yield significant amounts of oil and natural gas if the U.S.-led military mission can restore peace to the impoverished East African nation. According to documents obtained by the Los Angeles Times, nearly two-thirds of Somalia was allocated to the American oil giants Conoco, Amoco, Chevron and Phillips in the final years before Somalia's pro-U.S. President Mohamed Siad Barre was overthrown and the nation plunged into chaos in January 1991. Industry sources said the companies holding the rights to the most promising concessions are hoping that the Bush administration's decision to send U.S. troops to safeguard aid shipments to Somalia will also help protect their multimillion-dollar investments there. Officially, the administration and the State Department insist that the U.S. military mission in Somalia is strictly humanitarian. Oil industry spokesmen dismissed as "absurd" and "nonsense" allegations by aid experts, veteran East Africa analysts and several prominent Somalis that President Bush, a former Texas oilman, was moved to act in Somalia at least in part by the U.S. corporate oil stake. But corporate and scientific documents disclose that the American companies are well-positioned to pursue Somalia's most promising potential oil reserves the moment the nation is pacified. And the State Department and U.S. military officials acknowledge that one of those oil companies has done more than simply sit back and hope for peace. Conoco Inc., the only major multinational corporation to maintain a functioning office in Mogadishu throughout the past two years of nationwide anarchy, has been directly involved in the U.S. government's role in the U.N.-sponsored humanitarian military effort. Conoco, whose tireless exploration efforts in north-central Somalia reportedly had yielded the most encouraging prospects just before Siad Barre's fall, permitted its Mogadishu corporate compound to be transformed into a de facto American embassy a few days before the U.S. Marines landed in the capital, with President Bush's special envoy using it as his temporary headquarters. In addition, the president of the company's subsidiary in Somalia won high official praise for serving as the government's volunteer "facilitator" during the months before and during the U.S. intervention. Describing the arrangement as "a business relationship," John Geybauer, spokesman for Conoco Oil in Houston, said the company was acting as "a good corporate citizen and neighbor" in granting the U.S. government's request to be allowed to rent the compound. But the close relationship between Conoco and the U.S. intervention force has left many Somalis and foreign development experts deeply troubled by the blurred line between the U.S. government and the large oil company, leading many to liken the Somalia operation to a miniature version of Operation Desert Storm, the U.S.-led military effort in January 1991 to drive Iraq from Kuwait and, more broadly, safeguard the world's largest oil reserves. Although most oil experts outside Somalia laugh at the suggestion that the nation ever could rank among the world's major oil producers - and most maintain that the international aid mission is intended simply to feed Somalia's starving masses-no one doubts that there is oil in Somalia. The only question: How much? "It's there. There's no doubt there's oil there," said Thomas E. O'Connor, the principal petroleum engineer for the World Bank who headed an in-depth, three-year study of oil prospects in the Gulf of Aden off Somalia's northern coast. O'Connor, a professional geologist, based his conclusion on the findings of some of the world's top petroleum geologists. In a 1991 World Bank-coordinated study, intended to encourage private investment in the petroleum potential of eight African nations, the geologists put Somalia and Sudan at the top of the list of prospective commercial oil producers. Presenting their results during a three-day conference in London in September 1991, two of those geologists, an American and an Egyptian, reported that an analysis of nine exploratory wells drilled in Somalia indicated that the region is "situated within the oil window, and thus are highly prospective for gas and oil." A report by a third geologist, Z.R. Beydoun, said offshore sites possess "the geological parameters conducive to the generation, expulsion and trapping of significant amounts of oil and gas." Beginning in 1986, Conoco, along with Amoco, Chevron, Phillips and, briefly, Shell all sought and obtained exploration licenses for northern Somalia from Siad Barre's government. Somalia was soon carved up into concessional blocs, with Conoco, Amoco and Chevron winning the right to explore and exploit the most promising ones. The companies' interest in Somalia clearly pre-dated the World Bank study. It was grounded in the findings of another, highly successful exploration effort by the Texas-based Hunt Oil Corp. across the Gulf of Aden in the Arabian Peninsula nation of Yemen, where geologists disclosed in the mid-1980s that the estimated 1 billion barrels of Yemeni oil reserves were part of a great underground rift, or valley, that arced into and across northern Somalia. Hunt's Yemeni operation, which is now yielding nearly 200,000 barrels of oil a day, and their implications for the entire region were not lost on then-Vice President Bush. In fact, Bush witnessed it first-hand in April 1986, when he officially dedicated Hunt's new $18 million refinery near the ancient Yemeni town of Marib. In remarks during the event, Bush emphasized the critical value of supporting U.S. corporate efforts to develop and safeguard potential oil reserves in the region. Of the four U.S. companies holding the Siad Barre-era oil concessions, Conoco is believed to be the only one that negotiated what spokesman Geybauer called "a standstill agreement" with an interim government set up by one of Mogadishu's two principal warlords, Ali Mahdi Mohamed. Industry sources said the other U.S. companies with contracts in Somalia cited 'force majeure' (superior power), a legal term asserting that they were forced by the war to abandon their exploration efforts and would return as soon as peace is restored. "It's going to be very interesting to see whether these agreements are still good," said Mohamed Jirdeh, a prominent Somali businessman in Mogadishu who is familiar with the oil-concession agreements. "Whatever Siad did, all those records and contracts, all disappeared after he fled. ... And this period has brought with it a deep change of our society. "Our country is now very weak, and, of course, the American oil companies are very strong. This has to be handled very diplomatically, and I think the American government must move out of the oil business, or at least make clear that there is a definite line separating the two, if they want to maintain a long-term relationship here."
