^ Nothing can justify the deliberate trampling on an individual's rights, simply to send a message, as you say. As I mentioned earlier, let's not give too much credence to these men who after-all are just mere citizens like everyone else. If, and only if, they commit a crime, must they be punished severely, irregardless of their peace accords, feuds and whatnot. This is the only way justice can prevail.

Originally posted by Thankful: Nice pics, Puntland has been a beacon of peace for so many Alhamdulillah. It's nice to see capital celebrating such a worthy cause. The Somalia capital should be moved to Garowe, what do you think Duke? Originally posted by General Duke: ^^^I think its the only real choice. But some people are not ready nor willing to give peace a chance. To Thankful and Duke: Can you guys tell me how moving the capital city status from Mogadishu to Garowe will bring about peace in the parts of the country that are tumultuous? And when you say, "give peace a chance"-- you mean in Mogadishu and the south, right? Garowe has peace(Rabi baa mahad iska leh) and I'd like us to keep it that way. I see this idea of moving the capital from Mogadishu as a non-starter that only distracts the Somali people from truly coalescing around a strong federal government in Xamar that can do it's job effectively. If we're are serious about giving peace a chance in Mogadishu, then lets all work towards making the beleaguered TFG, a stronger,honest and more accountable government that can gain the confidence of the Somali people all over the world.

This is not a good idea. There is nothing laudable about the collective punishment of these tribal elders, most of whom have done nothing wrong individually. The authorities ought to bid their time and wait to see who commits a crime, and then come down hard on the individuals who done it, instead of arresting innocent folks for belonging to a tribe that is involved in a blood feud.

^ Che, how can you expect any responsibility and decency from them, when only 2 blocks of the capital of the country falls within the purview of their collective influence(if that). This men bring to mind Aristotle's great treatise on government... What influence ill-treatment and profit have for this purpose, and how they may be the causes of sedition, is almost self-evident; for when the magistrates are haughty and endeavour to make greater profits than their office gives them, they not only occasion seditions amongst each other, but against the state also who gave them their power; and this their avarice has two objects, either private property or the property of the state.

However, unless this is breaking news--for only Nuune is reporting it--I think it'd be prudent to hold off your congratulatory remarks until this news is confirmed by more sources.

^ Che--You mean saga, right? Nonetheless, I agree. As long as these "leaders'" salaries are being paid by foreign governments, then these men will always continue to squabble over their ill-gotten gains and will NEVER achieve anything worthwhile for the greater good of the country. So I dare say, my dear Somalis, embrace yourselves for more of the same...

WRECK OF THE HESPERUS by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. It was the schooner Hesperus, That sailed the wintery sea; And the skipper had taken his little daughter, To bear him company. Blue were her eyes as the fairy flax, Her cheeks like the dawn of day, And her bosom white as the hawthorn buds, That ope in the month of May. The Skipper he stood beside the helm, His pipe was in his mouth, And he watched how the veering flaw did blow The smoke now West, now South. Then up and spake an old Sailor, Had sailed the Spanish Main, "I pray thee, put into yonder port, for I fear a hurricane. "Last night the moon had a golden ring, And to-night no moon we see!" The skipper, he blew whiff from his pipe, And a scornful laugh laughed he. Colder and louder blew the wind, A gale from the Northeast, The snow fell hissing in the brine, And the billows frothed like yeast. Down came the storm, and smote amain The vessel in its strength; She shuddered and paused, like a frighted steed, Then leaped her cable's length. "Come hither! come hither! my little daughter, And do not tremble so; For I can weather the roughest gale That ever wind did blow." He wrapped her warm in his seaman's coat Against the stinging blast; He cut a rope from a broken spar, And bound her to the mast. "O father! I hear the church bells ring, Oh, say, what may it be?" "Tis a fog-bell on a rock bound coast!" -- And he steered for the open sea. "O father! I hear the sound of guns; Oh, say, what may it be?" Some ship in distress, that cannot live In such an angry sea!" "O father! I see a gleaming light. Oh say, what may it be?" But the father answered never a word, A frozen corpse was he. Lashed to the helm, all stiff and stark, With his face turned to the skies, The lantern gleamed through the gleaming snow On his fixed and glassy eyes. Then the maiden clasped her hands and prayed That saved she might be; And she thought of Christ, who stilled the wave, On the Lake of Galilee. And fast through the midnight dark and drear, Through the whistling sleet and snow, Like a sheeted ghost, the vessel swept Tow'rds the reef of Norman's Woe. And ever the fitful gusts between A sound came from the land; It was the sound of the trampling surf, On the rocks and hard sea-sand. The breakers were right beneath her bows, She drifted a dreary wreck, And a whooping billow swept the crew Like icicles from her deck. She struck where the white and fleecy waves Looked soft as carded wool, But the cruel rocks, they gored her side Like the horns of an angry bull. Her rattling shrouds, all sheathed in ice, With the masts went by the board; Like a vessel of glass, she stove and sank, Ho! ho! the breakers roared! At daybreak, on the bleak sea-beach, A fisherman stood aghast, To see the form of a maiden fair, Lashed close to a drifting mast. The salt sea was frozen on her breast, The salt tears in her eyes; And he saw her hair, like the brown sea-weed, On the billows fall and rise. Such was the wreck of the Hesperus, In the midnight and the snow! Christ save us all from a death like this, On the reef of Norman's Woe!

^ Sorry AO for expecting you to back up your drivel with concrete evidence and all the rest of my flip mockery towards you. It doesn't advance the friendly relations of the Marfishland and Puntland states of Somalia, does it? Looking at it now-- I see plainly that my use of sarcasm would make Marfishlanders, like yourself, even more defensive-- and from your reply, I see it has worked as was expected.
