And reversing any gains since 2000 Arte conference. Would PL be justified, or at fault had it invoked Article (4) of the State Constitution?

I know, I was being facetious, and intentionally jabbing you for your Kacaanist predilection. Just pulling your good leg. It dispirits one's soul. Now, consider this: 100 years from now at this rate and to this direction. Allah may save us all.

It explains, as you are technically of S Galbeed. Is Biciidyahan a sub of MX? I see more of it now than ever, and it always invokes terrible ire in my gut, shout and yell at them, the same way I used to children of Daraawiish waving colonial flags and discussing illegitimate colonial demarcations between Somali territories.

In my last trip back home, for the first time, I travelled on Ethiopian Airline, they managed to lose my luggage, had no idea as to its whereabouts for a whole week, and when it finally arrived, they would not pay compensation for expenses incl. hotel and other basic necessities. Imagine had I been someone whose medication or critical necessities had been in the luggage. I prefer Turkish Air. Once I had 2 battery chargers in the luggage, as presents, and they opened my luggage and let a note explaining as to the reason they had to be removed, tag number, and how to reclaim them. Che, Your familiarity with and interest in Habasha politics is surprisingly too close to home; are you by chance from the S Galbeed? Good analyses, and in spirit, the same now applies to Somalis in NFD, albeit Sijus are faring much better now beginning to dominate small business in Kenya, and visible in politics, actually gaining land instead of losing unlike in S Galbeed where even Jigjiga is now almost a non-Somali city facing the same fate as Dirir Dhabe. It is disheartening to say the least. Did you apply the label intellectual to Cagjar? Was that a slip of the tongue?

What are the chances of Cirro winning the coveted seat? Could Jeegaanka be trusted to keep their promise to reer Gacan libaax this time round? Not if history teaches us any, but never say never. Adjunct: I actually would like to see the likes of ina Jirde (one of the only sane politicians left), Jamal, ina Abiib, and Rooda engaged in Federal politicking whilst still ruffling feathers in Hargeysa, sadly Hargeysa is not that politically mature to allow their crisscrossing capitals. Yet, Abiib and Rooda need a couple of classes in classic economics, philosophy and exposure to world politics away from the local mayhem. And another thing, SL politicking would have been more interesting had it departed from the Egal doctrine of concentrating absolute power in Hargeysa for his control, where some of the aspiring and heavyweights were to stay away from Hargeysa setting up camps in Burco, Borama, and even Gebiley. (Correction: Borama is technically now Awdal interim Admin). Postscript: Both Xamar & Haregysa will eventually pay a hefty price for seeking heavily centralised model whilst depriving other cities nearby. Instead, the PL/SSC/Makhir model where there are so many small towns blossoming between Ceerigaabo to Buhodle to Galkacyo, and now even to Garacad is the future. Cabudwaaq and Guriceel are now technically part of this model. This becomes more evident when one travels on the ground in the eastern, western, and northern parts of the country.

Well, you are not a victim of the echo chamber, are not one of the goblins the bell shall toll, and shall be spared of the angst. What happened to his political aspirations? Why are not those people at the forefront of SL politics?

You are trying to adorn lipstick on fat pigs, agagas the lot of them, by the way, where is Jamal Cali Xuseen? Now, there is a man you could bank on along with C/Qadir Jirde. I thought these two ladies ( Fatima Saciid & Rooda Cabdi ) had a future, but unfortunately of late, there are just Edna in the making.

You should start with Edna Dhakhtar, but you will not find her mentor, who he passed away recently, and do Faysal Dhurwaa, and locate his adopted father Indha Khamro next.

Yes, that is him. He was the executioner for Gen. Caydiid, and carried out massacres in many regions incl. Mudug, J Hoose, Sh Hoose, and Bay.

"Unless there is consensus, and political fissure is agreed upon" When even deadly warlords seem more sensible, could see wherein lies the rub, and speak the truth more than XSM.

I hear the same rhetoric being used against Dr Gaboose whenever he speaks against the interest of the ruling class in Haargeysa. In other words, if Terra & Bakayle were to kowtow and please Bixiye, like Deeqsi or Dhixul as in recent interviews, then they would be considered Duriyad, no?

The same way you always other Dr. Gaboose, eh? Keep othering, and before you know it, there shall be no one left. Duruqsi?

On that same token, would it be fair to insinuate you might have been sired by a British provincial satrap, left behind in a hurry, and now masquerading as if a native? His family might be of Sanaag, as yours is of Bali dhiig, but he is reer Hargeysa.

I do not think they realise how modern technology inverted the criminal profession where even common criminals are wary of being caught on camera; one would have thought the likes of Bixiye, ina Kahin, Taani etc. would be conscious enough as to the severity of their criminality in shelling innocent civilians, as it was broadcast on live feeds. But then again it is not like they have got conscious, or would acknowledge the atrocities they inflicted upon innocent civilians, let alone its criminality. Even XX continues to deny any atrocities being committed in Las Anod even after videos of gory images and group burials had been presented. I do not know if you have seen A Terra's documentary earlier (mind you, he is reer Hargeysa, lest XX accuses him of being Siyaad Barre Supporter). It is very harrowing to say the least.

Was he this judicious, deliberative, receptive, cognisant, and reflective when he was at Villa Xamar? he is making sense.

I think included should be sycophants and sympathisers of war crimes and criminals the likes of Oodweyne, XX, hordes frothing and chanting "Muuse ciidanka fasax", online trolls.

AS retakes Bacaadweyne, Camaara, and Shabeelow. Balcad & Cadale feared to be next. If accurate, then it is as predicted. https://fb.watch/qLGJ9GAwd-/ --------------------------------------------- Hudson institute, a DoD outlet released its September report. Its conclusion: Consequently, the situation looks less promising than it did at the end of 2022, and al-Shabaab is unlikely to face a meaningful defeat in the coming months. Instead, the best-case scenario would see this military offensive degrade al-Shabaab over the coming months to the point that the terrorist organization partially fractures and loses some of its popular support, possibly opening up room for the FGS to negotiate with factions of the group. A more likely scenario, however, would see the conflict remain a stalemate, with the government’s current offensive bringing only temporary or superficial gains that do not meaningfully degrade al-Shabaab’s capacity. Given the improbability of a decisive military victory in the coming months or even years, the previously taboo notion of negotiating with the terrorists has gained traction in certain Somali political circles of late. President Hassan Sheikh has even oscillated between claiming that the objective of the current offensive is al-Shabaab’s complete battlefield defeat and claiming that the offensive aims to push the group into negotiations. [ ] In principle there is no reason to prefer an endless and fitful counterinsurgency to negotiations, but in practice it would be difficult to secure anything like an acceptable compromise at this stage. Some Somali security sources with knowledge of the group suggested that while al-Shabaab might enter negotiations with international powers, such as the US and Turkey (likely with mediation by Qatar, whose role in Somalia has proven controversial), it has no interest in speaking to the Somali government, which it sees as illegitimate and weak. [ ] At present this looks to be the best-case scenario, though unfortunately not the most likely one. But policymakers would do well to consider scenarios that might be acceptable to their interests rather than buy into unrealistic claims about the impending defeat of Africa’s most powerful jihadist group. https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.hudson.org/Faltering+Lion+-+James+Barnett+Sep+2023.pdf

Whenever you hear the empty heads shouting from rooftops with ill-guided diatribe, it means the triangle is on fire. We heard from Xammalat al Xadhab, and here are her minions.

SSC-Khatumo is doing much better than expected, but there are definitely going to be challenges ahead, economical or otherwise. I did mention SSC generated 13m in revenues in the last 3 months. I bet you did not know Garacad is a primary source of revenue for SSC-Khatumo.

With its main three States (Tigray, Amhara, and Oromo (less extent) ) on fire, and roadblocks popping up outside of Addis, how does Abiy plan to wriggle out of this inferno? I can not wait for the whole bloody thing to blow up in his spotty face.

He does not have anything to give, and even if he wanted to he will be end up with more than a broken arm and a black eye. It is not that he is not serious, but he is out of his depth as to the geopolitical games being played over his head.

Subsidised till SSC could take on the responsibility, as previously agreed upon during its provisional period, and SSC is getting there. He is specifically referring to security forces from PL regions, outside of SSC, still at the front.

In the old days when Somali media used to be informative with heavyweights at its helm. M Xarbi's role discussed. Literature alone by the likes of Qarshe, Naaji etc is on a different level. (correction: I initially thought this was the BBC).

So, victims even when they are the transgressors? Are they being serious? Instead of hiding their criminal enterprise, they are openly brandishing the picture of a murderer seeking revenge in foreign capitals? How come no one, other than Bixiye, speaks of or campaigns for the highest prized prisoner, the army intel chief, Gadhka Yogolka?

I once had a conversation with the late abu Xadra (Hadraawi) about politics, democracy, and elections in SL, and he laughed and said: "we are a long, long way away from home".
