From Somaliweyn "Maxamed Qanyre ayaa waxa uu Dowladda ku wareejiyey in ku dhaw 50 Tikniko ah oo isugu jira Madaafiic iyo Hub kale, iyo Lix Boqol oo Maleeshiyooyin ah oo hubeysan. Muuse Suudi Yalaxow ayaa isana waxa uu maanta Wareejiyey Lix Gaari oo Tikniko ah iyo Maleeshiyooyinkooda kuwaas oo maanta si ramsi ah Dowladda ula wareegtay. " 50 tekniko from Qanyare and 6 from yalaxoow plus their accompanying militias is a lot. Only those who want this government to fail will not realize that.

The UIC gave all their weapons back to the Clan based militias and these guys inturn pledged support for their 'Warlord'. Upto 600 militias from these guys will join the TFG forces inshallah. It's a great sign of moving forward.

Though I think Pelosi is a stain on the party. I guess you don't understand what the speaker of parliament does or should be. Maybe I am looking at it from a British Parliamentary system like Canada or the UK. Notice in these countries the speaker only breaks ties towards the ruling gov't and whatnot. The speaker has no views. He is a speaker of parliament. If he wants to be leader of the official opposition then let him be so. Start up Xisbiga Shariif Sheik Hassan. Nancy Pelosi is in the US system but even her official press release states objectivity and working for the greater good. I know its BS. But she can't show any ounce of Partisanship outright or it may appear as defiance towards IL COMANDRE IL PRESIDENTE JORGE W. BUSHE.

Maxamed Qanyare iyo Muuse Suudi oo hubkooda ku wareejiyay Dowladda Federaalka Arbaco, January 17, 2007(HOL): Maxamed Qanyare Afrax iyo Muuse Suudi Yalaxow oo Xildhibaano ka ah Dowladda Federaalka Soomaaliya, horayna u ahaan jiray Hoggaamiye kooxeedyo ayaa maanta waxay hubkooda ku wareejiyeen Dowladda Federaalka Soomaaliya. Hub wareejinta ay sameeyeen ayaa waxay timid kadib markii ay dabayaaqadii todobaadkii hore ay kulan la qaateen Mas'uuliyiinta sare ee dowladda Federaalka, kuwaasi oo ay isku af-garteen in ay hubkooda iyo maleeshiyooyinkooda ay ku wareejiyaan dowladda Federaalka. Col. Faarax Cabdulle Garam-garam oo u hadlay Maxamed Qanyare Afrax ayaa sheegay in ay ku wareejiyeen Dowladda Federaalka hub culus iyo mid fudud iyo maleeshiyooyin tiro badan oo ka mid noqon doona ciidamada Dowladda federaalka Soomaaliya. Xildhibaan Muuse Suudi Yalaxow oo isna wareejiyay hubkiisii ayaa sheegay in wixii haatan gacantiisa ku jira oo hub ah uu dowladda ku wareejiyay, wixii kale ee harsan ee beeshiisa iyo baadiyaha ku kala maqanna uu iyana soo wareejin doono, wuxuuna caddeeyay Muuse Suudi in uusan xitaa reeban doonin hub uu isku ilaaliyo ilaa ay dowladda u ogolaato mooyee. Dhanka kalena Xildhibaan Maxamed Qanyare Afrax ayaa maanta ugu baaqay Dowladda itoobiya in aysan ciidamadeeda kala bixin Soomaaliya tan iyo inta dalka Soomaaliya laga keenayo ciidamo ka socda Midowga Afrika, wuxuuna ka digay in haddii Ciidamada Itoobiyaanka ay baxaan ay dalka dib ugu soo laaban doonaan Maxkamadihii Islaamka, isla markaana sida uu hadalka u dhigay ay dhibaatooyin geysan doonaan. Maxamed Qanyare ayaa ka mid ahaa siyaasiyiinta sida weyn uga soo horjeeday in ay ciidamada Itoobiyaanka dalka Soomaaliya soo galaan balse wuxuu go'aankiisaas bedelay markii ay iska hor yimaadeen Maxkamadihii Islaamka oo ku qasbay in uu isaga tago deegaankiisa Dayniile, isla markaana ay la wareegeen hubkiisii, iyadoo lix bilood kadibna uu fariisinkiisii ku soo laabtay kagadaal markii Maxkamadihii Islaamka laga saaray deegaanadii ay ka talinayeen oo ay ku jirtay Magaalada Muqdisho.

A speaker of parliament is supposed to be bi-partisan a and what any speaker in the world should be a speaker. Not the opposition to a gov't. He thinks he is the Prime Minister or something? It's good he is gone and hopefully he never shows his demented views again.

Now your playing semantics brother. If I am losing my cool you are losing your mind The regions in question are obviously in question for a reason.Somaliland wants to make their clan fiefdom of a region look bigger and more diverse with the addition of the former british somaliland territories. When Your president or even Vice president can go to buhoodle toghdeer or Lascaanood, Sool or Badhan Sanaag lets talk.

Having ousted the Islamic regime, Ethiopia must act quickly to broker peace talks in the war-torn land. January 16, 2007 ETHIOPIA HAS DONE its fellow Africans a good turn by ousting the increasingly radical Islamic Courts Union regime in Somalia. And thankfully, Addis Ababa has the wisdom to admit what everyone knows: that the Ethiopians have about 3.3 nanoseconds to get their troops out of xenophobic Somalia before they will be even more hated than the thugs they ousted. Now the question is: Who can bring order to this anarchic land? The only move as foolish as sending U.S. troops to occupy Somalia would be for the international community to do nothing except watch it slip back into chaos. Somalia, you will recall, is a poster child for failed states. It is a place so violent that the Taliban imitators of the Islamic Courts, with their brutal "justice," were still seen as vastly preferable to the khat-fueled warlord gunplay that made a misery of life in Mogadishu for more than a decade previous. The irony is that the perpetually feuding Somali clans were finally able to unite behind the Islamists — even though most disliked their ideology — because they were so desperate for stability. The challenge is to provide order without a radical Islamist face. Now that Ethiopia has done the heavy military lifting, U.S. forces are trying to bomb the Al Qaeda leaders who have followed Osama bin Laden's orders to regroup in Somalia. But unilateral fly-by interventions from 30,000 feet are not going to do the job alone. If the Somalis want to get rid of the Ethiopians — and they do — they must be helped to hammer out a political settlement. The Ethiopians can deliver their allies — the transitional national government — to the bargaining table. The Arab League can bring the moderate clan leaders who backed the Islamists, and without whom no peace can hold in Mogadishu. The African Union can help deliver other factions. The U.N. and permanent Security Council members must use their diplomatic muscle to link reconstruction to a cessation of violence. African Union troops, with or without blue helmets, should then follow. Somalis have had enough strife for a lifetime. Source

^ One day its wadaad ku sheeg. The next dawlad ku sheeg. But if saransoor or shariif ahmed were on the top of the helm you wouldn't say the same? Would you? You know and I know that a flight cost more to Toronto then in Calgary or winnipeg. WHY? Ofcourse due to the higher landing fee in Toronto. Different cities have different rules. The biggest city in a country has usually the highest cost to land a flight and hence the cost are passed on to the customer. Thats why many people use the airport in Hamilton. However you'll argue because you just want to for no particular reason. How do you expect the gov't to raise funds? Beg for international hand outs for everything?

People disrespecting the flag of Somalia are disgraceful and disgusting. Mahamed Awale Libaan if he were still alive today would be apalled at these actions on something that meant so much to him and to so many.

Originally posted by SomaliThinker: i could say the same thing about buhoodle being recently made up (lol) but regress the issue here again is that Sol and Sang is not in control of Puntland. Buhoodle has been buhoodle since the time of aden cadde and abdirasheed ali sharmarkee. But this Saxiil is a RECENT CREATION. A division of Waqooyi galbeed into two regions. Just like Bari was broken up into Bari and Karkaar. How can I take you seriously when you can't even spell "SOOL" AND "SANAAG" CORRECTLY?

This is disgusting behaviour.

Somalithinker Sheik Turki Sheik Aweys and Sheik Shariif sheik ahmed all made similar statements about the territorial integrity of Somalia. But I didn't see any protest of this magnitude. ARE YOUR PEOPLE SCARED OF THE TFG?

Saxiil is a region created out of the former waqooyi galbeed. Its like dividing Bari region into Bari and Karkaar. Sxb you are delusional. Wester sool is one district of the former Sool also known as caynabo. Riyaale Kahiin ran out of the capital of sool district. Do you really think he could make it to xudun or taleex the birth place of a great anti somali division campaign against the british and their friends? LOOOL. Sanaag region is divided and buhoodle district is a no go zone for anti somalia people. Somalia Controls Bay Bakool Gedo Galgaduud Hiraan Mudug Jubbada hoose Jubbada dheexe Shebellaha hoose Shebellaha dheexe Sool Sanaag Cayn Bari Nugaal Banadir and the people of Awdal also want to join there brothers. The only way to do that is through Hargeisa LOOOOOL. Inshallah the people of awdal shall join there brothers in Somalia against those same people grown up on british tea and biscuits.

Why protest if you are confident in your ability to survive as a nation?

Caynabo is the only pro Somaliland region. Suprise suprise who lives there? LOOOL The demarcation of whether Buhoodle is in Togdheer or if it was in Bari Makes no difference. It is continous land sxb. So going by your standards Somaliland controls only Waqooyi Galbeed, Since there are pro puntland people in Sanaag Sool and Toghdeer? LOOOL you have a flawed concept of reality.

Puntland controls Xudun,Taleex, Lascaanood districts. Only caynabo is not in puntland control. The people ofBuhoodle of togdheer district pledge support for puntland just like the greater majoirty of reer sool.

^ yeah my relatives don't live near J&F neither. The live in posh areas like REXDALE AND REGENT PARK LOOOOL. JK

In kenya alone we could have a few hundred nations. Some consisting of a small pond and 500 people, But that is not feasible.

GD Somaliland is a dream in the mind of a few. What logical country in the world would advocate for the dismemberment of a Country with 90% of its population coming from one ethnic group, 100% believing in the Islamic faith mostly Sunni, speak the same language and even eat the same food- minus ofcourse our northern brother who has some sort of spite towards ugaali/soor LOOOOL. They would then have to divide countries who have legitimate claims of differences and oppression under ethnic monopolies and religious abuses of the majority towards the minority.

^ Don't scare them sxb. They think Somaliland is coming very soon. I think that was the same line of thinking held in 2002? Wasn't it? LOOOOOOOL

^The people of sool and sanaag, buhoodle certainly have and never will fall for the balkanization of their beloved nation, through a wild one clan nation state.

Xiin UIC asked for the assistance of foreigners. "Sheik" Turki explicitly said this himself and that foreign 'mujahideen' came to fight alongside him. Which is utter hypocrisy. This is the same man who was behind killings of innocent people in Waqooyi galbeed. We can have it both ways. Support is support. Just because one sides support doesn't come through like the others is not a justification for highlighting the support one attains. THE UIC asked and they recieved there fate.

Is Puntland the new boogeyman?

Why don't people want an adminstration for Xamar? Do they want the city to stay lawless for ever?

Eritrean soldiers have been caught in Kenya, Their adminstration will obviously deny any involvement. The ICU are made too look like angels. However everybody and their momma knows that they were hijacked by clan motivation. When you make a druglord aka 'sheik' indhacadde top security cheif how can you trust them? Some will say how can you trust Abdullahi yusuf? Well the two opposing sides have fought and now 'sheik' indhacadde the tuug warlord turn sheik is now in Germany sipping on some nice soft drinks and the UIC are running around like a headless chicken. Egypt- A country who abuses there muslim parties like the Muslim brotherhood is now a "God fearing" country? They only supported the UIC for their own geopolitical greed (Read: THE NILE RIVER). Eritrea- DO I NEED TO SAY MORE? Saudi Arabia- A country who gives a launching base to the US government is a muslim fearing adminstered country? There King is certainly no Faisal, or he would be dead by now at the bullet of his nephew. They also abuse somalis day in and day out in that country. Mistreat them and have "Hajiya Khamsiin" Somali ladies. Do you guys want me to continue? The countries who have offered the TFG help are its neighbours. Many of which have hosted 100 000's of thousands of Somali refugees in their respective countries. Kenya till this day has close to 200k somalis whom they support in refugee camps. Yemenis have close too 500 thousand somalis in there country and give them many rights which are not allowed to somalis in Saudi Arabia, Egypt etc Ethiopia gave refugee to hundreds of thousands of Somalis (Mostly from Northern Somalia). They have caused instability in Somalia, but if the TFG ask's for their assistance isn't that the right of the legitimate National Government?
