Sorry, for confusing you with KK, I think I did wlc you.

KK, so you are calling me an atheist?

KK, stop projecting, my only encouter with KOW is when he ruined this thread. http://www.somaliaonline.com/community/showthread.php/57515-Cheap-alternatives-to-asphalst-roads

Warwa Duke, Faroole and Puntland are not synonyms, we can criticize one without condemning the other.

Total nonsense!! @ KK

Lol

And just yesterday Turkey promises Somaliland a single-track policy completely bypassing the Dual Track Policy that recognized other pockets of stability in Somalia that merited greater engagement. Farole should be applauded for bringing Turkey's recklessness to light... it neither cares where its assistance to Somalia goes nor serious about promoting real peace and stability now that the Turkish government is favoring one region over the other. Duke, it seems to me you've managed to play into the likes of Abtigis hands... Islaan Bashir and now you as if this is Abdiwali vs. Farole brawl. Grow a pair adeer. Mogadishu is whose leverage again? How about Harigayso? Should we then abandon Garowe for Abdiwali's sake, when we both know he is the only honest body who is serious about bringing Somalia's old glory back? I would hope not because that would make you the only real fool. Turkey spent 350m Dollars trying to keep a starving population from dying, at the height of the famine last year, half of a total of 5m population were in danger of perishing. Turkey by passed the outdated UN model of humanitarian helping which relied on the corrupt warlords, TFG to distribute food and went straight to the needy! I don't think Turkey picked up a side by helping the weakest of our community!! Turkey spends 1m dollars a day feeding [10,000 families] or curing IDPs in it's makeshift hospital tent in Mogadishu, anyone indifferent to this humantarian endevour has no interest in his fellow Somali, period!

When coming back this could cause some problems. As we mentioned last week, the time table to end the transition is on track, if any of these entities stand on the way of that process then they will face the sanctions from the international community.

Firstly, Puntland didn't want it's civil society to go to Turkey, this dictatorship wants to control it's civil society. Also If what you're saying is true....it is still not good enough of a reason for the relevant stakeholders i.e Puntland, Galgaduug and ASWJ to boycott the meeting.

faarah22;835068 wrote: Stop sulking, remember those you call spoilers are not waging war but simply voicing their concerns. talks can easily solve the little misunderstanding later. They can voice their concerns in Istanbul, that's why it's called a conference for Somalia!!! P.s The TFG should take the money and distribute to the provinces itself.

Xaaji Xunjuf;835061 wrote: So 3 stake holders are not attending Puntland the Galmudug and the Ahlsuna sufis, only the TFG will attend the conference. I think it's the time we had one President representing all Somalis in an International conference, enough of these presidential groupies in the international stage that look more like a circus than dignified politics. So President Sharif and PM Gaas are enough, I believe. Sakiin can stay home too, he is a lame duck speaker!

If it's true, then it shows Zenawi's hand. Puntland, Galmuduug and ASWJ are just dancing to their masters tune.

This is why we need a functioning Somali National Army, we can't have roaming militias using violence for political ends.

Faaraax, we know where your loyalties lie, you should stop your BS, too...The UN have been spending a billion a year in Nairobi, and when it was bothered it sub contracted its work of distributing food to whichever warlord had the biggest gun and in the process contributed to the corruption we have faced in the past 20 yrs. What the Turks showed last summer was you can cut out the middlemen [warlords,TFG etc] and go straight to those in need. I don't expect any understanding from your type!

No one should listen to these two stooges, I believe it's their time of the month:D...I don't know what they are oppossing!

I know it sounds hard, but its best way for the children.
