Dee waa yeelkaa maxaa naga galay anaga waxaad ka mid aheyd. Ilaahay amarkiis badanaa! It is unfortunate you haven't grasped the sophisticated ideas in mr galbeedi's hugely important comment, however that does not give you the right to mock him. You know perfectly well that this online forum is neither an academic journal where articles must be submitted in a structured format nor Hiiraan online where pseudo-intellectuals with over the counter doctoral degrees spam the unsuspecting reader with a load of garbage. In SOL we simple post our comments be it bad or good.

<cite> @galbeedi said:</cite> Barwaaqo, hadalka way dhametsay. We have been challenged to create not destroy, not to boast but to be humble, and base our thinking on the facts on the ground. I believe that you do not need twenty or thirty years to build a working institution. Look at South Korea, they were poor rice farmers decimated by the war in 1951. there are no oil, mineral or any raw material. Yet for less than their years, they created one of the richest economies of the world. They do not have any debt or deficit. They have more than $250 Billion dollar in trust fund. All has been achieved through hard work. Look at Rwanda, In 1994, there were mass genocide and mayhem. In 1998, they were sending peacekeeping troops to Darfur.. A friend of mine who spend a year in the Capital Kigali, told me that the city is one of the cleanest in Africa. He said that you will get a ticket by crossing streets if you do not have the right of the way. I mean by walking. Nations have risen from huge calamities. Western nations sacrificed a lot to defeat the nazis losing millions. Check at the Chinese long march and the millions suffered. A three thousand mile railway have been built in Canada in one of the harshest winters in 1860-1880. how can you rise from the ashes of poverty and tribalism if no one is willing to work six consecutive hours. Countries, companies and families are built by blood, tears and sweat. Don't people have conscience . How can you steal millions while your community is without water. Sometimes, I think, the sycophants, criminals and people without conscience are becoming the leaders. Don't go far, just check the guys who is running the diaspora community organizations, the community Radio guys, or those who go back home to join the fray. I do not even want to talk about those who are running Mosques in the Diaspora. All we need is a good leader for just ten years. One that enforces the laws, collects taxes from everyone and willing to change the culture. If you introduce something new , they will not accept. All they know is certain amount of comfort they get used to. " ha u joojin". They don't want taxes, but they want roads built, they want free schools, but they don't want the taxes, and so on. You need a tough man with a vision. Folks I am sick and tired of the status quo. we need change. May be I should stop complaining and throw my hat in the arena. A society will not see any change if there is no change in the character of its members. In the Somali context, behind every warlord or a thieving politician there is a corrupt garaad/sultaan/caaqil, and behind every koofiyad bacle there is an ignorant trabalistic man.

^ Waaryaa Samantha ma dumaashidaa ayay noqotay waaka nin reer Baydhabo ahi guursadee :-D

You don't need to insult a man's entire tribe to get across your disagreement with him.

Mass persecution is a Kenyan custom when it comes to dealing with the Somali people. They did it many times in NFD, they are doing it now in Nairobi, and they will do the same thing again in the future.

<cite> @Dr_Osman said:</cite> There is even a hargeisa dude who did gabay on the podium, didnt see this burco guy though. Talaabo makes no sense calling Puntland crazy while his attacking lands that doest belong to him, living in morgan homes, we aint living in ur homes. Infact your ppl work at our port and make good money and I video evidence of it. Your one sad person talaabo. For that one morgan you run around with, we will bring tansaniya, ina kahin, ina askar, dhegawayne to trial. Check-mate, u can't make a govt a clan since all clans are in it, you have no case so whatsoever just based on that refutation. What really crushes your argument is the fact 'the regime aint around today' so you cant complain about something that isn't around. But we SAHAL have a genuine reason to complain since our genocide was community driven both up north and and mogadishu. We simply cant reconcile with killing machine community, because a community wont change, it wont disappear, they are still there and infact they are ruling us today which can substiantitate our case that we fear another genocide to return. As for your pathetic SNM, they got their asses kicked when mano to mano in the rural areas, thats why you ran behind your women dress in the urban areas and used them as human sheilds. U pathetic, u didnt have any control of anywhere untill aideed came in 1990 and the armed forces LEFT to fight a bigger force in mogadishu, thats why u had that IRIR pact with the south, u think u fooling anyone? you aint pal. Now sit down, learn from Puntland. It was in erigavo that ppl couldnt even walk the streets without being killed and robbed. Puntland aint killing themselves, ur the one sending terrorsts and tnt bombs. Read this interesting article by WELL versed and respected scholar in Somalia, even though I know his anti PL. http://wardheer.startlogic.com/articles/April/19_the%20Majeerteen_embrassment_Said%20Samatar.htm I warn u guys, I am well versed with somalis, I read alot and remember that article from a while back and related to it alot. I dont mind facts when I see it, But nonsense spewing like that dayniile witch and talaabo, is just time wasting and making stuff up as he goes. Talaabo lift up your game to Galbeedi standard, your a rookie son. I think you have taken my jokes about your new captain very badly indeed. Cheer up ditoore, this is just SOL :-D I still can't figure out why he had to wear Arab cloths though!! The whole ceremony looked like the crowning of an Arab colonist invader.

It is good Somaliland sent representatives to this ceremony as a way of building bridges with our crazy neighbours.

<cite> @DoctorKenney said:</cite> Yet for some reason you don't extend the same courtesy to Abdiweli Gaas or others you might happen to dislike. What's with the double standard? Godane's title is actually longer. His full title is- Amiir al muuminuun al islam waljamaac waljihad watawfiiq or something like that.

<cite> @DoctorKenney said:</cite> A little healthy animosity never hurt anyone Xaaji. The Swedes and Finns don't really like each other either. A lot of Lebanese tell me how they can't stand Jordanians. It's the funniest thing actually We have a lot less issues to work out, and you really have no right to complain about "not being recognized" since Somalia hasn't had a real Government since Siad Barre's Administration. You even say so yourself. So any "talks" regarding a mutual agreement of secession won't be taken seriously by the people until we actually have effective governance in the South. You're negotiating with a Failed State. The xaaji is actually a big xamaraawi deep in his heart. Once Mogadishu is back to normal I am sure he will be among the first "qaldanis" to set up tent there and speak the ludicrous dialect of that region :-D

Although this woman is milking the British media with her story, her fears are nevertheless genuine. We all know what Alshabaab and other crazy fanatics would do to her if she was in Somalia.

Ditoore Osman, let me ask you three question. Is Puntland a federal state or a pirate principality or a feudal clan fiefdom? Why are you guys using the Egyptian and Yemeni flags on the seats of those Arab fishermen hijacked from the ocean? Which unsuspecting Asian nation is this fruad going to be send to for a major scam?

<cite> @SomaliaRising said:</cite> Sxb my mowqiif is cut and clear. I cannot stand traitors, weither they be hags puntis or snm. I will always support United Somalia under Shariahlaw. That is a good principle.

He is just young, angry, idealistic, and unversed in the workings of the world. He thinks Sri Lanka with a population of 20 million, 75% of which is Sinhalese Buddhists with only 4% Tamils is comparable to the former Somali republic with a mere population of 9 million and over a third of which is from Somaliland. Actually I like Mr Somalilarising as he is a genuine Somali nationalist and very different from the countless hypocrites who wave and blue flag, sing "Soomaaliyeey tooosa", but would then stap you in the back at every opportunity for selfish clanish reasons. The guy is not bad but is just frustrated by the messy political situation of the Somali people.

Evidence??? Any useless politician can utter nonsense.

<cite> @DoctorKenney said:</cite> Mooge, maybe its a ploy by the SNM-crew to further destabilize the South, so it'll give them the ability to run to the Europeans and Americans and say "See!? Look how unstable Somalia is! Give us independence and recognition!" That seems like the only plausible explanation. A strong, assertive Somalia may be unlikely to tolerate the secession of Somaliland. But if Somalia's in chaos, then it might increase the chances of Maamulka-SNM gaining recognition and independence. That Khawaarij SNM dog Godane will get what he deserves one day, inshaAllah Have you swallowed the anti-SNM pill adiguna? The SNM (GOD bless them) were brave freedom fighters, nothing more.

<cite> @DoctorKenney said:</cite> Xaaji, you would think that Somaliland and Puntland have the most to cooperate on, as they have much of the same interests, they're next-door to each other, they both have successful Government Administrations, they're in full control over their territory, etc. You'll get nothing from choosing not to cooperate with these folk, especially since you already cooperate with the Amhaaro regime and the Bantus in Kenya There is actually a lot of corporations behind the scenes especially on counter-terrorism and security. Both governments are after all anxious of Alshabaab infiltration into their territories.

Ditoore Osman, when will your enclave build the Pirateham palace needed to house this new captain Jack Sparrow who is probably out of business due to NATO vessels in the area?

The Dhagaxbuur big foot community are the laandheerayaal of Sahal and should have the right to crown their Sultan as the king of Sahal. The pirates are as usual stealing other people's rights whether it is material property or traditional title.

<cite> @Tillamook said:</cite> Walaalay, Barwaaqo-- adoo raali ah-- Soomaaliya sheekadaas oo kale uma jixinjixdo ee orodoo burjikadaada iska kor fariiso! This is a proof of your ignorance about Islam.

<cite> @DoctorKenney said:</cite> What's really shocking is that Smartlander is just coming out of his week-long May 18th celebrations, and in his marqaan-fueled "generosity".... decides to grant us a Union on such an unfair and ridiculous basis. And then calls us all terrorists and pirates. And then acts like he's doing us a favor. Come on, are you with us or with the terrorist?

<cite> @Tillamook said:</cite> ^ SmartLander, thank you. I urged you long ago to end this SmartLander travesty. Switch your nic back to CiidanSuldan and come stomp these konfurians to submission with your awe-inspiring boots. That's about the only reason they understand. :-D Are you sure it is CiidanSultan. This could be a new identity of one of the many koonfurian trolls.

<cite> @Nin-Yaaban said:</cite> I remember reading somewhere that the median age in Africa is like 19yrs old..imagine that. Africa has alot of young able bodied that can make a difference. Yes surely Africa has a lot of young able-bodied men who can wield a machete and slice off the flesh of other able-bodied men for consumption. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2kCH1u7FoU

The pirates never give up their tricks!! Only a month or so ago, they fooled some uninformed Thai company chiefs into believing that a Con artist from one of the dusty villages in Bari is "the crown prince of Somalia". Now that the Thai people are on their guard, the shipwrecked hustlers are hatching another fraudulent plot for another far away part of the world who probably unaware of the screening of Paul Greengrass's Captain Phillips. http://www.hiiraan.com/news4/2014/Apr/54349/officials_clarify_somalian_crown_prince_news_reports.aspx#sthash.GIo85jua.dpbs
