2nd Group: Atletico vs Dortmund: 2 - 1 PSG vs Barca: 2 - 3

What are you smoking, Jibouti is not a foreign country.

The elites and general public will not stand for it, and no politician has the stomach to do that, even if they wish to tango dance with the idea. As noted before, PL is now the de facto Federal gov't. If any breaking away is to be discussed, it is HSM who is deviating from agreed principles engaging in secession by seeking to create a South Central gov't. Let me ask you: when will reer S West take a stand, be counted, and be written into the annuls of history? It is not the 1st, the 2nd or the 3rd time a rogue leader tried to hijack or dismantle the national platform to serve own short-term interest, and advance ill-advised, clan-centric politics. It is a known malady, and its cure is readily at hand. Very soon you will see HSM bellowing and wailing in the streets of Xamar when another leader has been (s)elected, and all his doodles had been reversed with the State back on track.

No, they have not, surely it can not be.

This was the most I ever listened to a vacuous politician. My brain now aches in dire need of elan. Trouble with ciyaal al Kacaan is you all think the country is Xamar, and Xamar is the country. Why not ride a bus to Baydhaba, travel through Sh Hoose, trot to Kismayo through Baardheere, and tell us what you see. O' you can not, yet here you are parroting the usual blather about the city State akin to a stable full of asphyxiated flora and fauna with Mr Jones no longer able to attend to their resuscitation. In this instance, it is as if you are a "baqal la dhufaanay' attempting a canter behind "dameer asqaysan", then I ask of you: what are those right-thinking souls amongst us to do? In the Somali tradition, elders practise 'gar naqsi' on their own prior to presenting their case to the 'xeer beegti' under the tree. HSM lacks, and is void of that, and is a classic munaafaq, who says one thing, and does the opposite. This ahbal wants to sweet-talk the nation into a dictatorship, and we may as well be blindly led by Hinda Culusow and Shihan Xasan Sh. Let us reflect upon his utterings: a) The most damaging of all: He went from " 'Ethiopia dhul nagama haysato' replaced with 'Dhul Ethiopia ayaan qaar goosaynaynaa ma aannaan dhihin' ". Let that sink in and ruminate. b) Constitution: The audacity of the man from "Loo joojin maa! " to "begging and pleading from the mosque ". He now argues "war yaanan degdegin", a few months ago, he was saying "waqti ma hadhin, immisaa la sugaa". Here is a sample of the Constitutional re-drafting he is engaged in. Do you still think his intentions are honourable? i) Af iyo dhego aan is maqal: in one sentence, he argues for a shift by rummaging through "redrafting the Constitution" without consensus, inclusivity, and representation, yet in the next sentence, he makes the case as to the reasons THAT only leads to failure. As MMA quite rightly diagnoses, the man suffers from hypomania disorder. ii) Best example is where he says let us NOT bypass agreed upon political contract, consensus-based constitution and treaties, yet he is the first to have unilaterally violated the ONLY agreed upon political contract in 50 years. iii) Another clear example of munaafaqnimo is where he says "aan wada hadallo", yet rejects negotiations, the open platform afforded him, and with the leadership granted to him. c) He argues "Hub waxaan u sidannaa keliya khawaarijta", yet does not realise sabotaging development projects is far more egregious than firing bullets. FGS has been withholding funds for developments projects, or refusing to sign paperwork for projects in PL incl. the Garacad - Galkacyo - Galdobgob, modernising electric grid, water purification projects just to name a few. If he had the ability to wage a war, he would have done so, but he does not, and the only weapon he could fight with is sabotaging development and progress. He financed stringers to disrupt local district elections. The same would apply to any other FMS just as his predecessor had done to JL, he tried against SL in shutting down international flights, to name a few. d) Now, he claims to have implemented federalism in the country. Could someone remind him of the drudgery in laying down the pipelines and the political capital expended in instituting Federalism whilst he was still an unknown Macawisle sporting sandals in suuq Bacaad, and how he was forced to accept JL as a State whilst he was wailing at the alter moving the entire FGS to prevent it from becoming one. Let us also remind him of his sabotaging of the SSC Khatumo movement in becoming a State, and backstabbing it in ridding itself of the SL militias. e) Elections: could he hold elections in 24 months? - If so, in which districts? Here are the regions and a list of districts aligned with the Fed. gov't. 1. Koonfur Mudug*: 2 degmo Hobyo Xarardheere 2. Galgaduud: 7 degmo Dhuusamareeb Ceelbuur Ceeldheer Cadaado Cabuudwaaq Gal hareeri Balanbale 3. Hiiraan: 5 degmo Beladweyn Buulo burte Jalalaqsi Matabaan Maxaas 4. Shabeellaha Dhexe: 7 degmo Jowhar Balcad Cadale Aadan yabaal Mahaddaay Ruun nirgood Warsheikh 5. Shabeellaha Hoose: 9 degmo Marka Afgooye Wanleweyn Qoryooley Baraawe Sablaale Kurtun-waareey Dajuuma Aw-dheegle 6. Jubbada Dhexe: 3 degmo Bu’aale Jilib Saakoow 7. Jubabada Hoose: 5 degmo Kismaayo Jamaame Afmadow Badhaadhe Xagar 8. Baay 5 degmo Baydhabo Buur xakaba Diinsoor Qansax dheere Berdaale 9. Bakool: 6 degmo Xuddur Tayeegloow Waajid Ceelbarde Yeed Rab dhuurre 10. Gedo: 6 degmo Garbahaarrey Luuq Baardheere Beladxaawo Dooloow Ceelwaa 11. Banaadir: 16 degmo f) Al Shabaab: Against wise counsel, where he was advised not to wage a war, but embrace engagement strategy, he chose otherwise; besides the pantomine costumes and empty rhetoric, and with AS's leadership still in Xamar, could he defeat AS? Latest intel indicates AS is [the] most armed, capable force in the country, and is stronger now than it were 2 years ago. i) He speaks of AS hiding and the FGS seeking them out, and what he does not understand is AS's manoeuvring is a strategy; question is what is his strategy? Where are the army generals, military tacticians, strategists, planners, and leaders? He is none of the above, yet wants to assume the role of all. g) PL / SL: Northern polities in the N East (pro-federalist) and N West (secessionist leaning towards Confederalist), as imperfect as they are, do lead regional politics, and have shown political maturity, stability, and conviction unlike the green FMSs in the deep South, which are gradually progressing whilst still beholden to the injurious Xamar-centric, centralist agenda. For the FMSs, this is temporary, a marriage of convenience, case in point both JL & SW are adrift, and divergent with the coming 12 months ushering in a new dawn of politicking. Both are poised to break away to full autonomy in coming years, for doing so benefits them directly, and the nation indirectly. The more politically and financially independent FMSs become, the less influence Xamar has over States. The same shall apply to GM & HS. The Garacad - Tuurdibi trade route 'ween PL and DDS has been an ongoing project, in the works for years, starting under Gaas, to boost the local economy. A good example, fruits and veggies consumed in PL now come from DDS (reason potato and tomato is cheaper in Galkacyo than in Xamar), and in return reason reer SG are now sea food aficionados, with export to DDS on steady uptick and revenue stream for the locals on either side of fence. Do you still think PL is in the wrong? If so, tell us why and how?

Both games ended in draw. Arsenal vs Bayern M - score 2:2 R Madrid vs Man City - score 3:3 You forget I used to play, was a very good striker, and known in East London.

Both English teams took the lead in the first 10 minutes, and are now trailing.

Al-Shabab terrorist group launched 11 mortar attacks in different parts of Mogadishu tonight. These attacks came days after the firing of the National Intelligence & Security Agency director Mahad Mohamed Salad. He has been accused of aiding Al-Shabab in the past as he facilitated such mortar attacks in the past. The presidential palace & Aden Adde International Airport were hit. The international airlines like Turkish Airlines & Ethiopian Airlines have stopped flights to Mogadishu for tomorrow! https://twiter.com/TerraAbdirizak/status/1777450146164281669 ------------------------------------- This was the UAE comments to the UNSC, Jun. 2023.

Agreed, yet His natural allies are A Madoobe, the consummate dud and on his way out, and Laftagareen, a hostage in Baydhaba as he said as much in Garowe. Surprisingly, Laftagareen speaks well with a good command of af Somali, and knows how to work the crowd, unlike MMA, who is woeful in af Somali, ya khasarah. h

I intentionally avoid spots popular with politicians, their coat hungers and rogue elements, and opt for hidden local gems where one could enjoy a decent meal whilst breaking bread with the locals, with the conversation alone being beyond one's imagination. Diaspora folks are pompous rascals on wheels lacking authenticity.

Those are just diaspora haunts, and not genuine. Go and find Cad & Caano kitchen, where some of the best, healthy Somali cuisine is being prepared in front of you. The owners, husband (reer SG by way of Dubmuluq) and wife (reer Hodan), a lovely couple, were planning to relocate to a new location, when I last dined there last year. My favourites: Garow, digir, soor, hadhuudh etc. served with veggies, fish, steak etc with some of the best herbal sauces. Here he opened a school. Here he is at his best when he started experimentation.

That is a travesty on a grand scale. A fine meal at a decent restaurant in Bangalore (Kannada, S India) and in Medan (N Sumatra, Indonesia) is a couple of dollars at most. A glass of fresh mango is 0.25+/- cents. Just wanted to prick your fat belly, and redirect your focus unto wherein lies the ailment, lest you got comfortable downing those smoothies in your adulation of HSM & Co, and forgot the simmering amber under the soles of the average resident of the city.

It is a war cabinet with the focus on the periphery rather than the centre, and with the periphery at ease, Deni is disposed at redirecting humpty dumpty, rebalancing the fulcrum against the illegitimate power-grab manoeuvering of HSM & Co, as they swim in their own faecal matter. Surely, you do not expect the supine SW folk to rise to the occasion, or the compromised A Madoobe in JL, or reer Hiiran on the cusp of dissipation, albeit are the ones, who will bear the brunt of it, when all is said and done. Besides the manufactured conflict on the onset, HSM's biggest allies are Bixiye & Co.

Waaryaa yaa reer magaal, instead of watching yt, travel round the city from Afgooye to Jawhar, just 20 miles+, and tell us what is going on. Talk to, and tell us about: Usage of US Dollar, as [the] currency in circulation, and its immense adverse economic implications for the average family, Mothers hawking fruits and khat on street corners (imagine a Mulsim mother peddling narcotics/drugs to feed her family), Paupers roaming the streets, Metal and garage workers pouring engine oil and metal residue at Bakaare, Young police officers manning city streets in sandals on a 200$ salary, Fat cat civil servants i.e. Ministers, MPs etc, suckling unto the bleeding bosom of Maandeeq, Segregation between diaspora folks and natives, Costly cafes and food at mid-range restaurants out of reach of the average resident, The reason a glass of mango or papaya is more expensive in Xamar than Dubai, Tawdry and debauchery at Xadiqa al Salam formerly "Ceelgaab" environ, And so forth and so one.

HSM appoints one of AaranJaan deputies, Cali Xoosh to the Federal Ministry of Interior. One of the proponents of the Constitutional overhaul.

Be warned, Britain is skint, and seeking fresh deep waters to fish to keep the lights on in London. Anything the conniving Brits do, does not benefit Somalis, not then nor now..

Balcad: Al-Shabab Attack Exposes Government Fragility The attack on Balcad, which resulted in the death of 11 Al-Shabab fighters according to district commissioner Qasim Furdug, is a testament to the group’s resilience and determination. While the government has not disclosed the number of casualties suffered by its forces, the extent of the damage inflicted upon the targeted checkpoints and government building is evident from eyewitness accounts and photographs from the scene. This successful attack, carried out a mere 30 kilometers from the center of Mogadishu, raises serious questions about the effectiveness of the government’s security measures and its ability to protect its citizens. The resurgence of Al-Shabab in Balcad and other parts of the country stands in stark contrast to the optimistic promises made by President Hassan Sheikh more than a year ago. The president’s assurances that the war against Al-Shabab would be concluded “in weeks” and that the regions of HirShabelle and GalMudug would be liberated from the group’s control now ring hollow in the face of the group’s continued attacks and growing influence. The government’s inability to deliver on these promises has eroded public confidence and raised doubts about the effectiveness of the current counter-insurgency strategy.

It is as if he knew what was was to come. In his final "daradaar" poem, he laments: "Waa idin dagahayaa kufriga aad u dabcaysaane Dirhamkuu idiin qubahayaad dib u gudaysaane Marka hore dabkuu idinku dhigi dumar sidiisiiye Marka xigana daabaqad ayuu idin dareensiine Marka xiga dalkuu idinku odhan duunyo dhaafsada e Marka xiga dushuu idinka rari sida dameeraaye Dillaalna waxaad helaysaan intaa dunida joogaaye Mar haddaan dushii Adari iyo Iimeey dacal dhaafay Maxaad igaga digataan berruu siin la soo degiye! " This was a response to the Saancadaale quips of the day, and the same could be said of the current crop chanting the death and destruction of AS today: "Waa lagu digtaa duul hadduu kuu darraan jiraye Bal dayaay wadaadkii waa kaa sii dabayshadaye".

A major difference between the two: There was a need to arm-twist warring factions holding the nation as a hostage, and warlords dividing up the capital and farther afield in 2004, do you see the need in 2024? What is niikoso? A new form of dance in Dar al Salam?

Fears of violence grow as Somalia scraps power-sharing system The amendments give the president the authority to appoint and dismiss prime ministers, transferring that power from lawmakers, and grant him increased control over appointments to the electoral commission, taking away input from federal states. The current power-sharing model of government, a system that ensures the country’s four main clans get equal representation in parliament, will be also scrapped in place of universal suffrage. The former presidents Mohamed Abdullahi Farmaajo and Sharif Ahmed warned the changes would upset Somalia’s delicate power balance, while the former prime ministers Omar Sharmarke and Hassan Ali Khaire denounced the changes in an open letter also signed by the veteran MP Abdirahman Abdishakur. Afyare A Elmi, a research professor at the City University of Mogadishu, said Puntland’s withdrawal from the federal system could further imperil the viability of a unified Somali state. “If a large chunk of the country is missing in this process we are simply building a constitution for south-central Somalia.” Afyare Elmi said the 2012 constitution was based upon a political settlement with broad input from Somalis. “It had four key elements: federalism, clan power-sharing, regular elections and a spirit of inclusiveness to build consensus. What the government is doing now is moving away from this settlement,” he said. The other federal states, Jubbaland, South West state, Hirshabelle and Galmudug have yet to comment on the amendments. Somaliland, which declared independence from Somalia in 1991, said: “Somalia’s recent constitutional development is an internal matter.” Fears of violence grow as Somalia scraps power-sharing system | Global development | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM State of Puntland refuses to recognise changes to the country’s constitution, which hand greater control to...
