  1. What’s this map Saalax? Is this Oodweyne Province?Xagaa uga tagtay Hargeisa, Berbera, Sheick iyo Erigavo? Aren’t you owner of those towns, who is the Mayor of Hargeisa, Burco and Erigavo, the deputy Mayor of Berbera, Sheick? Second if you want to create a maamul for HY, isn’t Somaliland HY owned? From Hargeisa all the way to Erigavo miyaaney ya kaga badan HY? So your first option is nonsense, HY already has a maamul, it’s called Somaliland and the only option you have is the second one, put Cirro on the big chair, and the real question is how to achieve that.
  2. Parliament can only propose impeachment but would need 2/3 majority of the Guurti, which I don’t see happening. Change of leadership through election ballots is the only discourse that is feasible.
  3. This is in Hargeisa few days back, women market traders standing up and pleading for peace and bring stop the fighting. May Allah listen to the pleads of the poor and bring this conflict to an definite end, once and for all inshallah.
  4. No Somali would ever accepts defeat, not as long as one is breathing and capable of fighting, and Somali conflicts always continue even if it’s through an endless and never ending tit-for-tat fighting. The question is, if there are other peaceful ways to achieves one’s goal, having the courage to against the dominating narratives, to against group thinking and to against one’s own nature, by choosing a different pathway to break the vicious cycle. And that sir requires a lot courage!
  5. In this current context and narrative, choosing a completely different path of seeking peace would be bold and courageous move, which one is still has a chance to. SNM folks have taken such bold moves against all odds, in the past as well. So, don’t count that possibility out yet!
  6. https://www.youtube.com/live/JsWAFZw8j5s?feature=shared Everyone calling for change of leadership (isbadal maamul), seems nobody trust SL being able to lead a peaceful and political path.
  7. SL must choose a political path, both with SSC and on the elections, as further conflict will lead to further erosion and crumpling of the state and social fibres. And for SSC also there are great risks ahead as it will tested in devising real political strategising coupled with military manoeuvring, putting up defensive strategies while returning civilians and civil life to Las Anod and other places and prevent militias from internal strives. Not an easy task ahead.
  8. I don’t think Muuse is going anywhere for time being, and perhaps he might be able to change gear and choose a political path and peaceful negotiations?
  9. Indeed, one should count the blessings and beware of hubris and pride for that comes before downfall, for that is the lesson here. But somehow one tends to forget the lessons of the past and repeat the same mistakes.
  10. This is what many tend to forget or don’t realise, that this conflict started out from a protest against injustice and for self-determination. The question is what’s next for both sides? From Somali history of war and conflict we know there is little to no scenario planning and little imagination and thinking outside of the drums for warmongering.
  11. Agreed, and happy you came to your senses. Ceeb maha ina xaqiiqda laga hadlo, qadarkuna wa ka ilaahay.
  12. Concur, I really hope this will be the end of warmongering and cool headed and rational thinking returns to our people, but fear it won’t be the case yet.
  13. You are trolling and being highly offensive. Somali Bantu community do live in Somaliland and have even an Ugaas here to represent the community. https://m.facebook.com/100064507817727/videos/jaaliyada-qowmiyada-bantu-jareer-weyne-ee-ku-sugan-somaliland-gaar-ahaan-magaala/1051152478281096/ https://www.somaliaonline.com/community/topic/63901-bantu-traditional-leader-visits-somaliland/
  14. The political emancipation of Somali Bantu community. Aad baa loogu baahnaa, ha la tageero
  15. This looks more like a gambling strategy. Siyasadu iyo kursigumarka Hadii er khamaar noqotay, Kaah iyo Kulmiye iska iloow ku odhan lahaa, both wa la khaarajaniyaa, wax kale meesha kasoo socda.
  16. It’s all good, but where is the law that should guide the direct party elections?
  17. Sidee ku wada ciyaari karaan Faraq iyo Cadnaan, Hadii Faraq sharciga qaban?
  18. Las Anod politics has changed a couple of times over the last 3 decades, in 2002 Dahir Riyaale and military was even chased out of the town. None of those times has hurt Somaliland, as the current war and pathways chosen by Somaliland government, which is a disaster for the local people and above all for Somaliland itself.Even you cant even deny the damage of this war to Somaliland, even though you choose the futile and fruitless debates on who lost more in this conflict. The majority of the Garaads were not even pro-Somaliland from the beginnings, second Somaliland is a government build over a period of decades while the Garaads are a clan and its traditional leaders, so secondly what is very destructive is to compare and pretend the sides are on a equal footing and start blaming the Garaads, by that alone your showcasing political immaturity. So coming back to your statement on the damage to what Somaliland has build up over the last 32 years and who has done damaged it. Every single rational person can see its SL leadership choose this destructive path while it could have responded in many different ways but it choose not to. Try to put your emotions and anger to the side for a moment and use your logic thinking, as truth and justice will eventually catch up. The sooner one realizes this the earlier one can strive to find a real solution.
  19. You can only have a system considered fair, when you also restore harmonious communal relationships, through truth and reconciliation where every community puts on the table their issues, grievances based on facts as you said, and not base things on fadhikudirir and made up stories.
  20. If you really belief in Somaliland, then seeking truth and reconciliation is the stepping stone to restoring communal harmonious relationship. But it seems you have already given up on Somaliland, and want to further separate things in sub-clan blocks with own clan governors, which will only to break up again in to smaller sub-clan factions(or mini-Lands), as is the natural course of clannish politics. No sir, keep your clan based mini-Lands fantasies to your diaspora fadhikudirir table, for what Somali people need is not further division, animosity and war.
  21. Kibirka iyo islaweynida wa lagu jabaa, xaqdarada wee kugu so laabanisaa. Diinta islaamka, ta Kiristanka, ila cilmiga maadiguba wee sheegiyaan, macaa diinta Hindidada ee cabuuda sanabka ayaa aaminsan oo og, falka xun Aad sameysid inu kugu soo laabaniyo oo wexe dhahaan ‘Karma’. Laba sano ka hor ayee eheed markii aan leheen dowlada Somaliland waa iney joojiso dadkii masakiinta ee ganacsato yar ee Somalida iney ka tarxiishay magalada Las Canood iyo magaalooyinka kale. Oo tarxiilka nocaas ah ka mid yahay dambiyda waaweyn ee bila adanka Laga galo, oo macaa wax yeeliso suuqa iyo dhaqalaaha Somaloland. Lix bilood kadib sanadkii hore waa kii suuqi waaheen gubtay oo Somaliland oo dhan Laga dareemay sameynteeda, oo Somali oo dhan gurmad usoo dirtay. Kadib Ila January waxa ka doodinay Las Canood iyo khaladka Somaliland ka gashay iyo kusii socoto, yada oo arintu sii weynaatay oo SL kusii socotay dariiqii khaldanaa, ayee iminkana ka biloobmatay Gacan Libaax oo isbuuci hore lagu dilay toboneeyo ciidan ah oo khalkhal ku abuurtay xasiloodi iyo nabadii dalka oo dhan. Marka walaalayaal, arintan sida rabtid u dhig oo ka dhig macaa another fadhikudirirkii caadada eheed ee waligeed iska jirtay, oo la isku shidi jiray. Laakinse waxa ii muuqata iney ka duwan tahay oo khaladka weyn ee umad Laga galiyo Hadii Laga joogi waayo kugu so laabaniyo uun. Khaladkana Hadii wax Laga qaban kareyn, atleast afka ka diid, Hadii aanad ka hadli kareyna, niyada ka diid. wa Iga dardaaran iyo talo.
  22. It’s becoming more more clear that the FGS of Somalia has been abducted by small elites from larger sub-clans that have no intention in reconciliation and don’t want an inclusive government that most people feel part of, instead think that the Government is theirs to begin with further reinforcing further injustice and inequality which will only lead to further disenfranchisement and disengagement from the FGS. We are back to square one.
  23. Ok, so it’s 100% emotional for you, purely driven by revenge not even anger. Atleast with anger one can debate and consider some of rationality, logic thinking, such as the possibility of reconciliation and future cooperation. But it seems you are not willing to even consider, but purely desire to inflict harm because of hatred? That my friend makes your comments and contributions here basic hate speech, far outside the scope of politics and any political discussions.
  24. Justifying shelling of a civilian city because rebels were hiding in the houses, this could have been a quote straight from those shelling Hargeisa in 1988.
