loooooool....just another episode in the chaos of Somalia have you not learned from the lessons of the cold war. You need a strong stable government to hold onto the weapons, weapons if they get into the wrong hands have a tendency to create more problems then solutions. I will give you a hypothetical senario. say 10 million is spent on arms, provided to an army of men who have 3 months military training, against a force of a few thousand hijab wearing teenagers fighting for god knows. say the government losses, you in turn give them these weapons and they become stronger, i know saxib 80% of Somalilands military arsenal was taken from the Somali regime by force in turn making us strong and you weaker.

Israel has been seeking closer ties with Somaliland for the past 2 years, i know this because this is not the first time i heard about this. The Somaliland government has been putting this off due to its desire to better relations with the arab world if you remember the interview with the somaliland president and Aljazeera were he said, we dont have relations with israel but if we wanted to there is no stoping us. The arabs...so called muslims are same people who have turned Dubai and there states into drug and hooker ridden cities, were its all about cars, and dosh. These the same peasents who were living on dates and milk 30 years ago. let me ask you a question, you southern somali's how many arab states formally recognise the state of Israel?? do you know?? - Jordan ( a muslim country ruled by a direct decendent of the prophet) - Morocco another state ruled by a direct decendent of the prophet - Egypt -UAE - Tunisia - Muaratania these states make up half the arab league ...so dont tell me about the evils of israel, palestine....is an arab affair. all i have to say...is why aint Riyalle in Tel-aviv ...get over there...sign some contracts for weaponry, and development so we cant start building our east african empire. these somali's are asleep and will be forever...from one civil war to another...to a warlord struggle...to a taliban revolt. I have never seen a state so screwed up yet they have the audacity to tell us what we can do and cant do. saxib, you were better under colonialism then independent. The Italians should come back and steal your bananas and use people as bridges.

Dalmar and little duky. Keep crying...keep moaning until the day comes that you witness your worst nightmare. let me ask you a question, when was the last time Somalia had a government 1991 right, its 2010 saxib ! put that into prospective, - no state - no infrastructure - no respect

loooooooooooool, like those before him....all end up in the same place in exile. Releasing it in their pants. If i only you were in the U.K. loooool ! losers.

day dreamers.....they pretend to be civilised yet they want you out of your own city and home. like xaji Afqalooc said to these people.....keep living in your own deluded world. forget erigavo you are lucky to be in bosaso. loooool.

Somaliland.....our time has come.........its Israel so what, it was the first country to recognise somaliland in 1960. Its the oppertunity we have been waiting for. SOMALILANDERS, WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE. The prophet os God Muhammed PBH signed contracts with Jews, alliances and partnerships. These so called muslims...these somalis are the very same people who bombed our cities with south african mersanaries, the same muslims who appose our right to self determination to the extent that they are prepared to starve us out and kill us. forget arabs....embrace your interest, international alliances with Israel as the first partner. SHALOM.....

i see your still talking about the mysterious oil....have you taken it out yet dukey. looooooool!

looool...its a lot more then you have achieved...look at hargaisa airport....look at the cargo carriers look at what we have developed. Yet after 18 years of murdering each other you have the audacity to speak to me about development in my state. Fix your own problems, before you spite the work of others. The chinese are different from other foreign power, they dont really care about international relations they just care about influence and profit. Is there a mutual interest yes, Ethiopia, the Red Sea and expanding influence in Africa politically and financially. Saxib wake up before you know it, the oromo's will be more developed then you. The bantu today look at you as refugees in Kenya? yet you come online....the chinese..are they tourists....are the journalists...who cares.

you somali's have no ambition.....wow he gets to meet the PM. this is known as southern difficiency always talking about lunch, dinner, casumad, for the love of God. Build a state and that the only way you will be taken seriously.

as much as they have failed they still manage to pay there civil servants on time. So that probably mean you are more of a failure then they are. piratelander.

Hey its a state not a clan...under the union hargaisa was not allowed hospital beds...looool, we are not the same species. SOMALILAND.

pirateland .....the biggest problem of somalia claiming to be its solution. Solve your own problems.

loooooooool......umal zamzam...i can clearly see by the uneducated comment that you made that you know nothing about somali history saxib. Bring your xijab wearing village invading children, we have not had a real fight for the past 17 years when we over through one of africa's most powerful governments. Alshabab are able to capture little villages with unarmed or lightly armed civilians but can they capture cities and nations of professional well taught soldiers who are battled hardend, no ! SO BRING IT......SOMALILAND WELCOMES YOU. ....TO THE HISTORICAL GRAVE YARD OF ANYTHING FROM THE SOUTH.

Think about it, why would the deputy of the kenyan parliment be interested in visiting a god forsaken none gratta entity that has failed its population, its territory and who its population are amongst the most impoverished of somai folk, who would really care of affending them? you have to understand Somaliland interests and Kenyan interests merge due to a number of factors in the region, but puntland....what is puntland these days? nothing saxib, your source doesnt even exist, they post these sort of article to heal there wounds like women....boooo hoooo hoooo. In relations to other matters, like the piratelander little duke, in all fairness i think you place why to much emphasis on recognition and i have said it before again and again, recognition or without it, somaliland dominates you saxib. It dominates you and your deserted little wasteland of a territory. so it really doesnt matter, riyalle this, riyale that...somaliland this....somaliland that...boooo hoooo hoooo.... I WAS BETTER AND GREATER THEN YOU AND YOUR STATE BEFORE, NOW AND WILL BE IN THE FUTURE...KEEP CRYING.

We will see who the real lions are when they clash...loool, the xijabis against a mechanised well trainned army. These alshabab are 16-20 years with less then 2 month training and no real oppisition.

sacad let me ask you a question saxib, why do the ONLF attack somali civilians of somaliland origin who live in Ethiopia's fifth region, they recently did this and had 5 of there militia killed, why do they burn trucks that belong to somali's? This is one rebel group who have no vision and are confused.

what percentage are they prepared to pay back to potential investors?

thats not bravery thats desperation, a women should never be on a battle field, god did not create women to fight wars. politics is a different matter, a women should never be given a weapon and told to fight. ONLF....create more problems for somali's in ethiopia then anyone. put down your guns and participate in Ethiopia, thats the best advice you will get.

If I choose to become the champion of somalia...i would change its name...its flag, its capital... and no one would rule except me, in my honoust belief I am the only real power, have been and will always be. I made it, i destroyed it and can give it life or keep it dead. you can not compare in your right mind a nation of people who wrote the terms and condition of cooperation in the middle of the red sea with the worlds largest colonial power to those of a people who were used as bridges to cross the rivers of there native soil. saxib like my forfathers said before in poetry CADANKAN LA LOLANA..E MODOWGA MA XISAYNO. We compete with colonialists we are not interested in blacks.

even the wadads are after political office....farwell somalia...may you rest in hell.

puntland would kill to be us....these people are sad pathetic individuals, always screaming the same mantra...over and over again, yet every year...we pass them, defeat them and humiliate them, like i said before duke little boy, you better pray that i get my recognition because if i dont, then i will start my somali empire, i will rule all, every square inch and village, starting with your rubbish dump bosaso and garowe..im only 15 miles away anyway. so what ever happens, recognition or no recognition i will win. CAN YOU STOP ME.

ask your uncle siad barre...he will know. loool, nice flag, instead of coping one, you thought why not copy both, come up with something original...i forgot your people are in capable of originality. They tend to follow the trend. looool

che --- who are you anyways saxib, what country do you have?? mirqan this djibouti that....This is between Djibouti and Somalilanders saxib, in this debate i dont think you count. I will let you know if we mention alshabab, hunger, chaos and killing factories in the future. somali-did, saxib the somali-dids of this world are the only ones who will prosper tommorrow, look at the somali-yeel's so called, were have they ended up, take your cheap propaganda elsewhere and stop butting into were you are not wanted.

typical of pirates, always trying to change the topic, saxib your capital is like 20 miles from that point, thats like an enemy force in Odwayene, i would be more worried about that then scoring some cheap points. Look at the bigger picture, thats why you have been going back for the last 18 years. i think we all know who the real power is.

these guys walahi make me laugh, i really enjoy how we always get the better of them, even amongst there own people. The conference near las canod proved devastating for them. They were reduced to being an outside splinter group with no say. and then they start there.... SOMALILAND......AAAAAAAHHHHHHH..BOOOOO HOOOOO HOOO! SWEET DREAMS, I OWN LAS CANOD, I OWN YOUR SALADINS, AND IF I WANTED I COULD OWN PIRATELAND AND THE WHOLE OF SOMALIA. WHO WILL STOP ME????? WELCOME ISRAEL....TO SOMALILAND !!! GIVE ME YOUR WEAPONRY, GIVE ME TECHNOLOGY, GIVE ME YOUR KNOW HOW OF KABUTZ FARMS, WATER TECHNOLOGY AND SOLAR TECHNOLOGY, NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY NOT TO MENTION INDUSTRIAL FARMING AND BUSINESS. SCREW THE WHOLE ARAB WORLD IF YOU WANT EXCEPT MECCA AND MADINA, THE REST I COULDNT CARE LESS. WHAT HAS ANY ARAB EVER DONE FOR US, EXCEPT BEING AN OBSTACLE TO OUR SUCCESS. KILL OR BE KILLED......
