I agree with Che. Never allow foreign nations to decide your faith. Future governments should not be beg the UN to defend the nations. We oppose the so called anti piracy foreign navies in our oceans and also the African troops sitting in their barracks. Somalia should be able to defend without anyone micro managing. one incident happens , and we all became emotions. Minister Farah Juxa should blame HSM and others for this weapons',but should not target the national policy of becoming free fro others.

MMA, Saaxiib, I don't judge things on emotions or slogans certain politicians pronounce. Trump called Muslim ban and other issues, but he was the president who killed the least number of Muslims in the last 24 years. Also, there is the convergence of some right wing and left side who are antiwar in America. In terms of Palestine, Trump openly told two Israeli reporters that they, " Must finish the war and start peace, you can't just keep doing this. Look at what is happening today, genocide Joe is dithering and making things worse despite the fake peace he proposed. Weak men makes things worse, always. No one is listening to him. It is how the left works, they never take a real stand. As I said before a real change for the wider world will only come from the right. Look at Tucker Carlson and many right wingers who are opposed the permanent war. Trump is clear whether you like it or nor. The world needs Trump more than ever. I am looking the big picture, not the daily pickering and vote seeking corrupt politicians. Furthermore, while race is important, there are bigger issues like faith and freedom.

Bayle has lost already in so many ways. He was told to stay in Nairobi, buy an apartment there and keep his good name. Yet, for some reason he decided to go to Hargeisa. Even if Rooble and company threaten your life while a finance minister, you don't become a coward and run away. Furthermore, the world or nation building doesn't revolve " Dayn Cafin" or the old economic system of 1970 ties.He was a trained dog by the IMF and flowed what was told to him. The so called Somali debt was just about 4 billion which is nothing compared with the surrounding economies. By the way, the Awdalites who hail from Gabiley area are mostly delusional or out of touch. We have seen the the two Samater brothers, Bayle, another MP in mOgadishu who contributes nothing and many others who are confused. Orod oo Prof. Ahmed Samatar bedel oo Biixi dhawr casho shaaha la cab.

He just moved his head slightly or the bullet would have hit his brain. The shooter is a registered republican. If Trump goes down, the GOP will install Nicki Haley, the warmonger Indian who wrote finish them off on bombs heading to Gaza.

Che, I am talking about after he won 1980 election. He was shot in 1981 and defeated Walter Mondell in 1984. Exactly. Now what we got is an American emperium acting like the old colonial powers before the second world war invading and imposing. Trump is an isolationist. If Trump was the leader Imran Khan of Pakistan would have been ruling, and there will be less intervention under Trump. He might leave Syria, Iraq and Somalia, just like Afghanistan. There will be less wars which means more stability around the globe.

Che, Reagan won 49 states after he survived an assassination. Furthermore, do you really want a change in world affairs including the horn of Africa? If the answer is yeas, Trump is the man

Reports indicate that the man that attempt to assassinate Trump shooted from a rooftop. How could that possible with all the secret service? Someone one to take him out . What I can tell you is that any president that survives assassination wins the elections because America always loves the underdog.

There is no Hilaac party without Prof. Samatar. This kid is delusional if he thinks he could win anything after the departure of its founder. If they really wanted to accommodate him, the same tribal council could have recommended to add Hilaac to the other three. Waddani and the opposition doesn't want a dark horse to spoil their votes. Anyway, I am very glad Prof. Samatar is out of the picture. Our next move is to probably threaten the remaining Dinosaur called INa Rayaale to quit and go to France and stop saving Biixi. Waa in Reer Awdal State u hanjabaan oo dhalinta Borama Joogtaa fariimo adag u diraan. Haddii uu joogsan Waayana Talaabo adag laga Qaadaa. It is time to expel Ina Rayaale as soon as possible. Fariintaa ha la is gaadhsiiyo.

Fowsiya please tell the truth. The lady in question is Yusur Abraar the former governor of the central bank. By the way she was the only Somali voluntarily to leave a top job. Way saxeexi lahayd casiirkeedana Muqdishu ayey ku cabi lahayd. The main reason she left wasn't because she spoke about the $1.4 billion the donors collected for Somalia. The ministry of finance had setup a foreign account in Dubai to deposit the Somali assets recovered from foreign countries. That money could not have been accessed by the central bank. Ms. Yusur argued that the money could be embezzled and she doesn't want to be part of this corrupt scheme. Then one of the top henchmen of HSM threatened her to sign. Since contract killing was a regular occurrence in the city she decided to save herself and leave rather than sign the millions of dollars corruption.. That isall I have say for sister Fowsiya. Good luck Fowsiya.

MMA, on the other hand, as Cabdisaciid said, the MOU is helping Al-shbaab get more recruits for their cause. Ehiopia ha ogaato hawshu haday adkaato al-shbaab will come to the north to fight Abiy.

Xaaji, it doesn't take much to fire the AK47 in Somalia. In fact, we always believed that " Haddii meel yar oo aanu isku urursano helno in aan mar hore ku lkala bixi lahayn'. We were always jealous of the SSC who despite having the open spaces, yet it took them some strange event to to trigger the war. I am waiting such an event in Awdal. On the other hand, the Hargeisa west boys never waged any real war in Gabiley-Dila area other than kill innocent travelers or people sleeping in Seemaal. When the local tried to retaliated in Seemaal they all left the area and became refugees. Xaaji you don't have good track record for wars other than markaan baxnay. Anyway, It is beneath me to say my tribe is powerful than yours, but I agree with you that that the fake peace had hurt us a lot. THe Awdal community which had traditionally lived in coastal area and with history of trade is now concentrated in one single city called Borama. Furthermore, the world is changing. I joined the other day one of those crazy Twitter chats among the Awdalites and the consensus was that Amoud University should be closed and for two years, it should be transformed t military training place including the students who attended. ."Qoriga Qaata oo qalinka dhiga" is the new moto. All I can say it that may Allah save us from the bloodshed of our evil brothers from Hargeisa and Burco.

Far from it. He fought Al-shbaab before anyone else during the reign of then president Abdilahi Yusuf. He has zero sympathy for Al-shabaab, but he knows that HSM is beating the bush. No surprises here. I know former foreign minister Cabdisaciid Muuse. He is very bright , intelligent and one of a kind. If you talk to him personally, he always thinks out of the box. He has some very strange ideas that the usual Muqdisho or Garoowe based crowds don't comprehend. He is among the next generation leaders whose talent is not used because of some stupid reasons. He is digging some of the dangerous moves HSM did in late 2016 just before the election. Among them was promising UAE a base in Berbera. He also, pointed out the it is the UAE who are pushing for the base, not the bankrupt Ethiopia whose currency is collapsing. If HSM want to stop Biixi and Abiy all he has to do is arm us, the Awdal S. Movement and things will change quickly. Baadida nin baa jir kula daydayaayo Daalna kaa badane, aanse donahyn In aad hesh daayin abidkaaye. We know the Hargeisa entity is weak. Don't believe the false bravado from the microphone that are blaring from the hotels and plazas.

Hogaamiye Firdhiye met Awdal elders from ( Jesus and Gada...s) in Mogadishu before he flew to Djibouti. There is a big change brewing from Omar Geelle. Anigu ka hordhici maayo, but the Habro in Hargeisa who talk from both sides of their mouths daily are very worrying. I was listening the gangster Buurmadow praising the D block and Farmaajo while attacking HSM and vowing to help Dani. Few years ago the biggest danger for the enclave were Farmaajo and Siyaad clan. You don't see Puntland, Mogadishu, Baydhabo or anywhere in Somalia where leaders go to a wedding event and call " Reer Hebel Baa cadow inagu ah".Faysal Waraabe calls Puntland Majeerteeniya and so many other names, yet no one even bothers to respond to him. They ignore him like a lunatic. Awdal State Movement went to Djibouti and all hell broke loose. I knew the Habro project is fragile and weak, but I was shocked the hysteria the doomsday scenario that is been pronounced from every corner. I don't know how this project will end, but everything that is built on lie always crumbles in spectacular fashion. I hope change happens without big bloodshed.

Muuse waxa uu ogaa haddii aan hub helno in there could have been another Goojacade. So he decided to give the shop. Why don't we liberate the land and negotiate a business deal just like these fools. Awdal managing its affaires is a very dangerous thing for too many people. Even Che, deep down might not approve because Garacad could be challenged by Awdal ports because of proximity. Even when the federal government was fighting Abiy , they went straight to Addis and offered Garacad to silver plate. The only way to prosper is by ports and trade routes, and Awdal got that. Other than Mooyaale to the south all other ports are far away from population centres. Zaylac is just around 300 Km to Jigjiga and major Oromo population centres. Regardless, we will build our ports one day came whatever might be.

bla bal. Xaaji meesha ha isku ceebeyn. THese necon political hacks are looking some traction from the media, but would fail. The good news is the secessionist are probably 1% of the Somali population in Minneapolis.

Xaaji the security concern thing is a cover. In Djibouti they pay around one billion which is nothing compared to the amount of cargo that goes to Ethiopia. From oil, fertilizers, grain, merchandise, chemicals, automobiles and so forth. They don't pay any tariffs or taxes on these and many imports. All they pay is small portion of the port services or they would have went to Lamu or Mombasa in Kenya. Even in Bebera, Ethiopian goods transit without paying nothing except the port services. In fact, Abiy tried to move to Kenyan ports many times, but can't satisfy the British system that manages the port which demands accounts to be settled with dollars and on time. In Djibouti, they mostly pay their services Ethiopian Birr. No one will accept the volatile Ethiopian currency for trade. If ports were that serious for Ethiopia, they could have negotiated a deal with Eritrea. In fact, the Assab port was built and managed by Ethiopia for 50 years. Look, Abiy has seen the corrupt Somali leaders who doesn't look beyond today. He sees Dani in Puntland who would do anything for power. HSM making deal with British to get weapons embargo lifted and so on. You got a desperate separatist clan, and corrupt southern leadership. How many times we have to say it. If God willing some of us ever come to power, the Hargeisa project will be over within a few years. Rather than ask Abiy a deal , will demand the return of Somali Galbeed or a referendum for the people to decide. Don't be even be surprised if Hobyo or Garacad offer a military base for Abiy in exchange for business deals. And Finally, when we traveled to Ethiopia to get some weapons and liberate Awdal, everyone accused us of aiding the enemy.

Xaaji, You must be very proud of the political moves of your esteemed commander and his sidekick Faysal Waraabe. Here is the latest major policy announcement from the all powerful Waraabe yesterday. By the way what is this black head dress?

It is the best option, but in Mogadishu we have a leadership that doesn't think beyond the next election or some other mundane issues.

It might be unnecessary alright if Omar Geelle gets his way. The latest news is the HA businessmen or the Muuse clan oligarchs who control the Djibouti business were ordered by Omar Geelle to leave town or force your cousin Muuse to abandon the MOU. Knowing how Muuse is loyal to his clan more than anything he might as well accept that deal and keep his business interest intact in Djibouti.

Delusional Xaaji. Where do the Canfar settle to attack Djibouti? Inside Awdal? When thing I would say is that Awdal Movement will not stop whether Djibouti supports us or not. One thing the last few days taught me is how fragile the Hargeisa regime is. Faysal Waraabe is wearing black headband to mourn and as usual all over the place. he is insulting the HAG community and declared to offer his services to C/laahi Dani. At the same time he supports the song that declared " Axmaar baa iga Garoowe iyo Xamar". We didn't even fire a bullet yet all the cry iyo Kakacaay. We the Awdalites are resilient really, all we need just start the fire crackers and this regime will collapse.

MMA, Rather than keeping the status quo like most leftists, the right wing groups whom you are calling fascists, are dynamic. Except the Hindus who are totally evil and take the laws in the own hands and openly attack Muslims, the European right wingers have some valid grievances in terms of immigration, LBGT issues and other concerns of the wars going on in the continent, especially Ukraine. Anyone could see that uncontrolled mass immigration from cultures that are different from the host countries could trigger resentment. You can't ignore that. I think the biggest allies for the immigrant community in Europe and North America were the Jewish community, who knew one or two things about people looking freedom and safety, and now because of Gaza and Palestine, some might have decided to turn their back from those traditional roles. MMA, I think you probably consume a lot of mainstream media news about the threat of right wing parties, but things are not as dire as you claim. Here in Alberta we got a right wing provincial party who shares a lot characters with main federal conservative party, yet they are doing OK. Even the justice minister is a Muslim. Also, we should be very careful to ally or put all our eggs in one basket. The black American community used to vote democrat for the last 50 years, yet where did that got them. For most of the left wing parties, while they accept and promote multiculturalism t, their main principles are abortion, LGBT and slot of other issues that damage the foundations of society. I knew the issue of Gaza has put a lot of politicians on the spot, but that is not the only porometer to judge where they stand in terms of your support. If you are a Somali resident of the west, your judgement of the parties will probably reflect your wallet and they the you feel about the inflammatory words coming from candidates. On the other hand, if you look things on the bigger picture and the lives Somalis back home and the Muslim community around the globe, you might reach a different conclusions. The more the parties are isolationist, the more the world and MUslims feel peace and stability. General Wesley Clark, the former commander of NATO forces in Europe, had narrated how the Pentagon was plotting to destroy seven countries in the middle east and Africa region. Somalia was among them. After Bush Jr. left office, the good Kenyan called Obama came and finished the job by attacking Libya, Syria, Somalia and Yemen. Joe Biden and UAE had finished the last remaining country in Africa which is Sudan. Remember, it was Obama who encouraged Raila Odinga to invade Somalia when we were weak. Furthermore, the loud mouth blowhard TRump never initiated any wars despite the so called Muslim ban from America. We Muslims and Somalis should stop being emotional on minor issues. Don't look the election sound bites, observe their foreign policy. Trump decided to leave Afghanistan despite the objections of the US Army, was trying to leave Syria and Iraq. In Somalia, the American drones are in the sky everyday probably looking for one terrorist who done something evil 15 years, yet doesn't touch the open gathering of Al-shabaab in plain sight. Furthermore,The Americans they are partners with the Somali government to help defeat this menace, yet from time to time they would say , Oh by the way, " Al-Shbaaab might take over Somalia". If that is the case what the hell are you helping me for? France would never had left west Africa if Obama was there. The Kenyan man deployed forces in Sahel to support France. The isolationist president Trump showed up and said, " what the hell am I doing in west Africa" and left. There were a thousand American forces in Niger and they are leaving soon after Junta who took power demanded. MMA, one more thing: join the right wing parties and push your own agenda, don't sit in sidelines. The world is bigger than few Somalis elected politicians in Minnesota or Toronto. Personally, I don't even support the immigration of Somali people to these countries at this stage. I don't deny that the rise of certain groups to power will create fear and anxiety for our community and we must find ways to mitigate. I also understand that normalizing hate and racist rhetoric will be felt by many non white communities in the future. It will be another topic, but most Somalis here in the west roam the land like they are strolling in Bakaraha and are unaware of physical threats. You must know your surroundings all the time.

Well throwing trillions of dollars around won't fix inflation. Also, the numbers that banks and statistic agencies state in terms of inflations numbers doesn't correspond prices at the grocery stores. Furthermore, due to the new religion called " Climate Change", electricity prices has doubled. Joe Biden is gone soon, I mean within days or weeks. THere are reports that his family is at Camp David today to make a decision. Others say that he might be in a hospice care by end of the years. People will not forget how they have cheated the population while a senile old man was used to exercise power from behind the scene. The will be a contested convention, there is no if or but, it will happen. It will be between Gavin Newsom, Roy Cooper of North Carolina and maybe Withmer of Michigan. Do not even think of including VP Kamala Harris, she has even a lower rating of Biden. I knew the guy was finished when he pronounced so many resolutions about Gaza and no one had listened. Netanyahu probably knew that Biden was useless and he sticked to his gone.

Exactly, if they need a port from central Somalia right now, Garacad is ready to do the job immediately. We met the minister of ports of Galmudug here a month or so ago and they are on the process of building a port which at the early state of design and engineering.

Hobyo port is probably a long way to go, seven or eight years from now.
