If Kulmiye wins the election without the professor, then Somaliland would be at the mercy of a loose Canon as its head. But if Samatar somehow gets real power, then things might not be that bad as Somaliland will have at least some brakes to rely on haddii uu seeflaboodku waxyaabo aan loo baahnayn ku dhaqaaqo. As for Cirro, he failed as the speaker of the parliament and if he wins he will probably just waste more of our precious time. With our third party in disarray, Somaliland has no options, so I am just praying for a continued peace.

@Asad Ahmed said: deal with your own problems,dont add other regions like galgaduud or hiiran what happened there was a fierce fight b/w two groups and not like the docile sheeps in gaashamo. So according your disabled logic, unarmed men, women, and children killed without any warning are docile? Those countless people blown up to bits without any warning by terrorists must be docile too?

Saalax you are so delusional saaxiib. Waar faanka iyo faataadhugga inaga dhaafoo inoo ducee bishan barakaysan inuu dadkan boqolka milyan ah ee midiyaha inoola soo baxay Ilaahay inaga qabto.

Don't the fat cats in Mogadishu give anything to these poor people?

So it is those drug dealers who caused this disaster? Of cause those who did the killings are fully responsible and must be brought to justice but the accursed drug dealers are a major problem wherever they are. May Allah destroy them.

@Mooge said: cadnaag, niyoow stop the emotions. the first news that came out was that the guy was terrorist and run to galmudug. and as you know most terroists who kill run to Galmudug. SOLers posted many killings where the terrorists run to galmudug. it is what they have always been doing niyoow. You are throwing tantrums when your pack of lies are revealed for everyone to see :-D

Che what is the point of killing few habashi soldiers if innocent Somali civilians are massacred in the process? I don't mind if Alshabaab fights other men outside of populated areas, but their tactics is to destroy everything and everyone in their sight regardless of who the victims are. The massacre of innocent people by the Liyu terrorists is the same as the massacre of innocent people by the hooded thugs. A murder is a murder regardless of who commits it.

@Suldaanka said: Abdi Ilay's death squad are a clear present danger to our people both inside Somaliland and across the border. We need to wake up to this reality and organise ourselves against them. The civilians death toll stands at a staggering 60 lives which include both small children, women, elderly and men. It is complete and utterly unacceptable to let this slide under the carpet. It is high time the people to come together and organise their own melitias that can go toe-to-toe with these criminals. I second that. The people of gaashaamo should form a defence force that is prepared to fight to death and capable of hunting down those blood thirsty criminals. Gaashaamo region should be a no go zone for them from now on.

@Maakhiri1 said: Is his the new history you teach the gullible youth? The Somali government randomly started killing people from North, There was no insurgency going on? Are you now disputing that your beloved dictator committed genocide and other heinous crimes against humanity? There is absolutely no point debating with the likes of you who are supportive of such unforgivable crimes so I rest my case.

@maakhiri It is not the people of Somaliland who brought down your beloved Siyaad Barre but he and his cronies were to blame. How can you blame a people who were defending themselves against a regime dead set to wipe them out? Who in the North of the former republic would have benefited from the prosperity you are talking about if most of the people who live there were systematically killed or displaced?

Haddaba yaa nidaamkaa aanu rabnay inaanu dhisno oo umadda Soomaaliyeed oo dhan isugu keeno aakhirkii burburiyay? Jawaabtu waa: 1. Dawladii Sharmarke iyo baarlamaankii u badnaa reer koonfureed ayaa Kenya u sexeexay oo siiyay NFD. Cigaal meesha wax awaooda kumuu lahayn. 2. Siyaad Barre ayaa Soomaali galbeedna bixiyay oo Ethiopia u sexeexay si uu SNM halgankeedii usoo afjaro. Markaa saaxiib haddii aanuu maanta hamigayagu dhaafsanayn 200km kaliya, idinkaa sabab u ah.

A British historian refused to accept one of Israel's most prestigious prizes and a $1million reward which comes with it because of Israel's inhumane treatment of the Palestinians!! http://www.timesofisrael.com/uk-historian-declines-israeli-prize-citing-conflict-with-palestinians/ I think you will all agree with me that the Somali politicians would sell their whole country plus their mothers and sisters for much less.

Getting recognition depends on a lot of factors in the geo-politics of the day, but I think the better question to ask is what has Somaliland achieved in the last quarter of a century? The answer of this question depends on who you ask. If you ask the politicians and the successive governments in Somaliland, then the answer is scandalously little is achieved. But if you ask the Somaliland public what they achieved in these 25 years, they will probably say that they successfully rebuild their shattered homes and lives after the disastrous civil war.

They are just causing unnecessary traffic jam in an already busy town. Anyway, why is he in America and not campaigning in the towns and villages where the voters live? Somaliland's politics is so useless it serves no one but those who made it their business.
