If this is true all southerners living in Somaliland should be discriminated against. Send them back to their country! Proud Somaliland nationalist.

Jowhar was founded by a senior member of the Italian Royal Family, H.R.H. Principe Luigi Amedeo, Duca degli Abruzzi in 1920, who first came to the African continent in 1873 and liked the place. The Duke raised funds to build dams, roads, a railway, schools, hospitals, a church and a mosque. He eventually married a Somali Jowhar woman and died in his village. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jowhar

I know. I didn't claim to like them, I live in a posh white area so I don't see them much anyway.

There is difference between like and love. I have no problem with the ordinary citizens of south Somalia(not the politicians) who some of them might not hate the nation of Somaliland, however I don't support a union with the failed area of south Somalia.

Well done our fellow Somalilander. Safferz Adigu ciid ku diiday citizenship maleh laakin waxad aad uu jeceshay reer Koonfureedka ku hoos nool tangiiyaada Uganda iyo Burundi. Tasa laga diidaay. Qofkii jecel AMISOM, Xamar ha deego.

What are Haatu's Kikuyu daddies doing in our country. Anyway welcome since they are a enemy of a enemy of ours.

Well done.

Fadeexado Musuqmaasuq Oo Madaxweyne Xasan Sheekh Ka Soo Waajahay Guddomiyihii Baankiisa Oo Is Casishay Iyo Xogaha Ay Fashilisay Published: Nov 3rd, 2013 at 08:21 PM Hargeysa(Qaran news/FT)-Guddoomiyihii Baanka dhexe ee Somaliya Marwo Yusur Abraar, oo dhawaan iska casishay xilkaas oo uu Madaxweynaha Somaliya uu u magacaabay 7, toddobaad ka hor ayaa banaanka soo dhigtay fadeexadaha sababay is casilaadeeda. Yusur oo ah aqoonyahanad xilal sare ka soo qabatay Baanka Citbank ee caalamiga ah una dhalatay Somaliland, gaar ahaan gobalka Awdal, waxa ay xilka iska casishay iyadoo ku sugan magaalada Dubai ee dalka Imaaraadka Carabta, waxaanay Xasan Sheekh Maxamuud u soo dirtay dhambaal ay ku sheegtay sababaha iscasilaadeeda, waxaanay cadaysay musuqmaasuq ka jira dawladda Somaliya. Dhambaalka ay u dirtay Madaxweynaha Somaliya oo uu arkay Wargeyska caalamiga ah ee Financial times, waxa ku sheegtay in shaqadeeda lagu hayay farogelin. “Ilaa markii la I magacaabay, waxa si xidhiidh ah la iiga codsanayay inaan heshiisyo ogolaado oo aan jebiyo awoodayda wakaaladeeda ee aan u hayo dadka Somalida ee ah madaxa hay’adda lacagta Somaliya.” Ayay ku tidhi qoraalka ay Madaxweynaha u dirtay. Heshiiskan ay diiday ayaa ah mid ay dawladda Somaliya la gashay shirkad Maraykan ah oo lagu magacaabo Shulman Rogers, taas oo doonaysa inay soo wareejiso lacagta Somaliya kaga xayiran baananka adduunka, ka dibna ay ku wareejiso dawladda Somaliya. “Waxay khatar gelinayeen lacagaha dibadda ku xayiran, waxaanay albaabka u furayaan musuqmaasuq.” Ayay ku tidhi qoraalkeeda is casilaadda ah, waxaanay ku doodaysaa in lacagtaas si toos ah loogu shubo baanka dhexe ee Somaliya balse aan loo gacan gelin shirkadaas. Waxa ay Yusur Abraaar, ka dacwootay in farogelin lagu hayay hawlaheeda shaqo ee ah madaxa baanka Somaliya, “Nasiib darro, baanka dhexe looma ogolaan inuu shaqooyinkiisa guto iyadoon la farogelinayn, noocan oo kalena uguma shaqayn karo hay’ad la aamini karo.” Shirkadan Shulman Rogers oo ah hay’ad Maraykan ah, ayuu sidoo kale Xasan Sheekh dhawaan u kiraystay inay ka difaacdo fadeexado musuqmaasuq oo ay guddiga qaramada midoobay ee UN Monitoring group ku eedeeyeen, “Waxaan si cad u diidanahay inaan ogolaado heshiiskaas.” Ayay ku tidhi qoraalkeeda. Shirkadan Shulman Rogers ayaa waxay qandaraas hoose arrintan u sii siisay shirkad kale, waxaanay UN Monitoring group ku eedeeyeen inay warbixinteedu ahayd mid dacaayad ah. Mid ka mid ah deeqbixiyayaasha taageera Somaliya ayaa Wargeyska Financial times u sheegay inay Yusur Abraar u baqatay nafteeda iskuna aamini kariweyday Somaliya, una carartay Imaaraadka Carabta ka dib markii ay cadaadisyo Muqdisho ka fuuleen. Qoraalkan ay iscasilaadeeda ku cadaysay Yusur Abraar ee gaadhay warbaahinta caalamiga ahi, wuxuu fadeexad ku yahay dawladda Xasan Sheekh oo ay cadaatay inay ku dhex jirto musuqmaasuq baaxad leh, waxaanay meesha ka saari doontaa kalsoonidii ay beesha caalamku ku qabtay dawladiisa. Yusur, ayaa ahayd wejiga wanaagsan ee dhinaca xisaabaadka iyo maamulka lacagta ee uu Xasan Sheekh horgeeyay shirkii bishii September dawladiisa lacagta loogu ururiyay dhaqaalaha, kaas oo lagu qabtay wadanka Beljamka.

She Is only talking about this year however a review back to the number of terrorist plots prevented was a lot more in the past years, easily can be found in the media. Even this year police regularly search people coming into the big cities and their cars, so yh if people are being researched and caught terrorists will be less motivated as they know there is more chance of them being caught in the act than in Mogadishu.

Ibtisam Even three terrorist attacks can be dangerous as we learned in Mogadishu. 1 unprevented terrorist incident is enough to kill dozens. So it is due to the police that suspects were caught before getting the chance to do the damage.

Well done Somaliland police they have prevented a lot of terrorist plots against Somaliland and other crimes.

More about the Iranian agenda. Iran, Somalia Seeking to Strengthen Ties Fars News Agency Wednesday, October 30, 2013 Senior Iranian and Somali parliamentarian laid emphasis on the further enhancement of all-out relations between the two Muslim nations. In a meeting between Chairman of the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commisiion Alaeddin Boroujerdi and a visiting delegation of the Federal Parliament of Somalia, led by Cabdalle Boss Axmed, the pair stressed the need for further development of mutual cooperation between Tehran and Mogadishu. “Expansion of friendly relations in political, economic and cultural fields with Muslim countries is among the basic policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Boroujerdi said during the meeting. Axmed, for his part, said the Federal Parliament of Somalia attaches importance to bolstering political, economic and parliamentary cooperation with Iran. Iran is an observing member of the African Union (AU) and has shown an active presence in previous AU summit meetings. The country is considered as one of the AU's strategic partners along with India, Japan, China, several South American states and Turkey, while Tehran is also believed to be prioritizing promotion of its economic and political ties with the African states. http://www.hiiraan.com/news4/2013/Oct/41791/iran_somalia_seeking_to_strengthen_ties.aspx

Iranian soft power lol. The Iranians and Turks are competing for influence in Somalia. Iran's Imam Khomeini Relief Foundation, I-K-R-F has recently donated sewing machines to women in the Somali capital Mogadishu as part of its humanitarian relief and support to the Horn of Africa country. As many as 50 women and girls, living in Mogadishu, have taken training courses to learn how to work with these machines. Iran has several vocational training centers in the city that take up the responsibility of teaching work skills to Somali women. These women have received certificates after passing the sewing courses and now they can open up their own business. Iranian officials here say they’re prepared to assist a friendly Muslim country that’s on the path to self-sufficiency. Throughout the famine period, Iran delivered thousands of tons of food stuff and medical supplies to Somalia. Although that period is drawing to its end, the Islamic Republic of Iran remains at the forefront of helping the people of Somalia. Now, the Foundation is spearheading relief efforts in Mogadishu and by its vocational centers, Iran is given fresh life and hope to the Somali youths, offering better future. Iran’s relief project has drawn warm and positive reaction from the Somalias, who are calling on other Muslim nations to beneficiaries of this project thanked Iran and called on other Muslim countries to follow Iran’s example. Imam Khomeini Relief Foundation also sponsors Quran learning centers in Mogadishu in a bid to promote the knowledge of Islam to the Somali youth who’s been subjected to years of fighting and instability. Somali authorities have hailed Iran’s humanitarian aid to Somalia. Through its relief work in Somalia Iran has also assisted in many projects and says it hopes to further expand its humanitarian mission all across Somalia. http://www.presstv.com/detail/2013/09/17/324543/new-hope-for-somalis-as-iran-increases-humanitarian-aid/

Guddoomiyii Bangiga dhexe ee Soomaaliya oo iscasishay Jimco, November 01, 2013 (HOL) - Guddoomiyihii bangiga dhexe ee Soomaaliya marwo Yussur Abrar ayaa si lama filaan ah isaga casishay jagadaas muddo todobo usbuuc ah ka dib markii loo magacaabay sida uu soo qoray wargeyska Finacila Times oo ka soo baxa dalka Britain, ayada oo sabab uga dhigtay masuqmaasaq ka dhex jira dowladda. Arrintaan ayaa qalqal galindoona deeq bixiyaasha oo damacsanaa in dhaqaale xoogle ay galiyaan dalka Soomaaliya "Ilaa iyo markii lay magacaabay ayaa waxaa culeys laygu saaray in aan wax masuqmaasuqu, taas ka baxsan masuulayadii leey xil-saaray in aan ugu shaqeeyo umadda Soomaaliyeed" ayeey tiri Yussur Abrar oo iscasilaadeed qoraal ugu dirtay madaxweyne Xasan Sheikh. Warqad seddex bog ah oo ay iscasilaadeed ugu dirtay madaxweynaha Xasan Sheekh, ayeey Yussur ku sheegtay in ay wax isdaba-maris ka dhex jiro dowladda dhexdeed taasna ay albaabada u furi karto masuqmaasuq. Deeq bixiyaasha ayaa u ballan qaaday in dowladda Soomaaliya siiyaan dhaqaale aad u ballaaran ka dib shirar lagu qabtay dalalka Turkey, Belgium iyo UK bilooyinkii la soo dhaafay si dib loogu dhiso dalka Soomaaliya oo dagaalo iyo abaaro ay ka jireen muddo ka badan labaatan sanno. Marwo Yussur ayaa sidoo kale waqadeed ku sheegtay in ay diiday ogolaasho ay ka codsadeen Shulman Rogers oo ah hay'ad qareen ah (Law Firm) kana howl-gasha dalka Markeynka oo rabay in ay qandaraas ku qaataan soo aruurinta hantida dalka Soomaaliya uga maqan dibadaha wixii ka horeeyey 1991. Hay'addaan Shulman Rogers ayaa dowladda Soomaaliyeed u adeegsatay in ay ka difaacaan eedeymo ay Qaramada Midoobi u soo jeedisay dowladda Soomailiya. Afhayeen ku hadlayey magaca dowladda ayaa maanta sheegay in dowladda Soomaaliya ka go'antahay in ay dib u habeyn ku sameeyaan xubnaha adeega dhaqaalaha ee Soomaaliya. Marwo Yussur sababtaas ayeeynu ugu dooranay in ay hogaamiso dib u habeynta dhaqaalaha dalka Soomaaliya, in kasta oo ay waddankaba joogtay muddo aad u yar. Marwo Yussur ayaa la sheegayaa in ay iscasilaadeed ka dirtay ayada oo ku sugan dalka Immaaraadka. Lamana garanayo halka ay hadda ku sugantahay. http://www.hiiraan.com/news/2013/Nov/wararka_maanta1-33933.htm

Who cares, the land is still inhabited by various groups so you have no right to label it a clan name. No wonder ONLF has failed it alienated major groups and they are never safe in other groups areas. What is wrong with Somalis is people like you who're ignorant, emotional and lack logic. I am from Somaliland and that is home, it is a peaceful nice home which my people freed it with their own blood. Nothing is free. I will go there whenever I please. You stay in your Ethiopia and figure out how to liberate your land instead of chatting nonsense online.

No. The name of the region is Somali region/Kilinka Shanaad/Somali Galbeed. The "O" name is a past colonial name for the area, however it does not exist anymore. It is only carried by the supporters of ONLF. Lol@I sincerely hope you don't reproduce is that how you expect me to sympathize with you, well I hope you don't reproduce so you don't cause more ********* to the world and continue serving Ethiopia.

The truth is not tribalism. They are the ones carrying "O" a clan name for a rebel organization in a region inhabited by several Somalis, don't accuse other people of tribalism.

I doubt it. ONLF can't even liberate one single village in its entire existence.

AfricaOwn That is you.

AfricaOwn As long as it is not a relative I couldn't care less as it doesn't effect me. However what I am against is halimos trying to bring fatherless children born to foreign men to our lands back home. They married them in the first place so they should take responsibility.

Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Menendez has criticized US President Barack Obama for not having a strategy about the situation in Syria. “Today’s hearing left me bewildered that this government does not have a strategy as to Syria,” Menendez told CNN on Thursday. “It seems that we’re having meetings about how we get to meetings in Geneva, while Syria is becoming the Somalia of the Middle East and attracting an all-star cast of violent extremists,” he added. He made the remarks following a Thursday Senate Foreign Relations committee hearing on the conflict in Syria. “It’s beyond my imagination that at this stage we don’t have a comprehensive plan to try to get Syria into a different track,” the New Jersey senator said. Menendez also noted that he would talk about Syria with Secretary of State John Kerry. “The reality is I heard no comprehensive, cohesive strategy,” said Menendez. “This is not acceptable.” Syria has been gripped by deadly unrest since March 2011. The United Nations says more than 100,000 people have lost their lives and a total of 7.8 million others displaced due to the violence. A very large number of the militants operating inside the country are also foreign nationals. AGB/AGB http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2013/11/01/332333/syria-becoming-somalia-of-middle-east/

Finally the Ethiopian born has been tamed. Seems he and his kins have accepted Culusow is their president inside Somalia border.

I don't know man but I prefer my own land even if it might be hotter. Maydh, Somaliland.
