lol what a bunch of blood suckers. 32 M for reconcilation? the drama doesn't get any better than this.

By Sahal Abdulle Wednesday, March 14, 2007 MOGADISHU, March 14 (Reuters) - Somalia's prime minister appealed on Wednesday for $32.6 million to fund a national reconciliation meeting in Mogadishu and said the next two weeks would prove if it could secure the violent capital in time. Eight people died on Tuesday when a barrage of mortar bombs launched by suspected Islamic insurgents struck the city's presidential palace. Government forces and their Ethiopian allies then returned fire with artillery, hospital sources said. In a bid to stem the near-daily attacks and cement its authority, the interim government will host a long-awaited meeting of clan leaders, elders and politicians on April 16. On Wednesday, Prime Minister Ali Mohamed Gedi met diplomats in neighbouring Kenya to appeal for money to organise the event, which his administration estimates will cost $32.6 million, according to a document seen by Reuters. "Nobody can deny there are security challenges in the country, and particularly the capital city," Gedi told reporters afterwards. "The next two weeks will be a test for us and allow us to prove how we will organise the conference." The government, still based in its temporary capital of Baidoa in southcentral Somalia, voted overwhelmingly on Monday to move to Mogadishu. Gedi said that process had already started, and parliament would move in about two months. CIVILIANS SUFFER Despite the Ethiopian military presence -- and more than 1,000 African Union (AU) peacekeepers who arrived from Uganda last week -- the city remains one of the world's most dangerous. Mortars rounds crashed into its whitewashed hilltop presidential compound, Villa Somalia, on Tuesday, just hours after President Abdullahi Yusuf returned to the capital amid tight security for the first time in weeks. Eight people were killed and more than 30 injured in the attack and retaliation, hospital staff and residents said. Most blame the insurgency on remnants of a hardline Islamist movement defeated by the government with Ethiopian military help in a two-week war over the New Year. That offensive ended a six-month Islamist reign over most of southern Somalia. Though the attacks are aimed at the government and its allies, civilians are invariably hardest hit by the violence. "Four of my children were injured when a mortar hit our house," said Mogadishu resident Safia Abdirahman. "We are poor civilians. I have been living safely in that house for the last 16 years, the whole duration of the civil war." The Horn of Africa country slid into anarchy after former dictator Mohamed Siad Barre was toppled in 1991, and 13 earlier attempts to create an effective central rule all failed.

Tell your uncle he is better of in baidoa. unless he wants a fast ticket to hell

well thats what you believe. you are deficient in your belief that islam cannot be used as a law to govern society. to say something of this magnitude is heresay. Your argument that people are flocking to mosques in democratic societies is false and untrue, rather the highest rate of immortality,lesbian, and all kinds of dispacable acts are done in the west. Sadly some muslims in those countries have taken that path.

Schoolchildren Caught in Somali Gunbattle Crossfire, Witnesses Say Last Edited: Monday, 12 Mar 2007, 8:30 PM EDT Created: Monday, 12 Mar 2007, 8:30 PM EDT 03/13/2007 -- Ethiopian troops protecting government installations battled with Somali insurgents Tuesday, scattering dozens of schoolchildren who were caught in the crossfire as they left their classes, witnesses said. A government official also narrowly escaped death in a separate attack when his car, traveling in a four vehicle convoy, was hit by remote controlled land mine — a rarely seen tactic in this restive Horn of Africa nation. Gunbattles erupted in several different locations in the restive capital, Mogadishu, with insurgents using rocket propelled grenades and machine guns during the attacks on an Ethiopian military base and a military convoy. One Ethiopian military truck with soldiers on board was hit by a rocket and caught fire, said eyewitness Shino Moalin Norow, who sells drinking water near the scene. There were no immediate reports of casualties. Ibrahim Omar Sabirye, deputy mayor of Mogadishu received hospital treatment for minor injuries after the attack on his convoy, his bodyguard Abdikadir Ahmed told the AP. Another passenger traveling in the same car was also injured in the blast. Somalia's government and troops from neighboring Ethiopia drove out a radical Islamic movement late last year, but the government is now struggling with a growing insurgency and the Ethiopians have started pulling out. African Union peacekeepers who began arriving last week have also come under attack. The peacekeepers are the first here in more than a decade. The peacekeepers, all from Uganda, are the vanguard of a larger force authorized by the United Nations to help the government assert its authority and to allow Ethiopian forces to leave. Insurgents believed to be the remnants of the Council of Islamic Courts have staged almost daily attacks against the government, its armed forces and the Ethiopians. In Tuesday's violence, teacher Mohamed Hussein Abdi said dozens of his young students fled screaming as fighting broke out close to Hoyga Hamar school. "We had just finished classes when the fighting broke out," he told The Associated Press. "When the children heard the gunfire they just scattered. "They were frightened and scattered everywhere. I could not hide myself because I was trying to stop the children running." The gunmen attacked in minibuses and small cars before fleeing the scene. Ethiopian troops used artillery to return fire, said Abdi. "Terrorist elements have attacked bases of government troops in the capital," said the Deputy Defense Minister Salad Ali Jelle. "We have repelled them." However, gunfire could still be heard in the city of 2 million, where escalating violence has forced hundreds to flee. Meanwhile at least 42 people, mainly children, have died in the last 24 hours from a suspected cholera outbreak in southern Somalia, doctors said Tuesday. More than 240 others have been hospitalized, and doctors fear more deaths because of the lack of proper medical facilities or medicines in the war-ravaged country. Somalia descended into chaos in 1991, when warlords overthrew a dictator, carved the capital into armed, clan-based camps, and left most of the rest of the country ungoverned. The transitional government was formed in 2004 with U.N. help, but has struggled to assert control.
