Somaliland: The Uniqueness of Being a Lander Thursday, 06 June 2013 17:21 Submit to Delicious Submit to Digg Submit to Facebook Submit to Google Bookmarks Submit to Stumbleupon Submit to Technorati Submit to Twitter Submit to LinkedIn There is something special about being Somalilanders; we ought to fight for what we believe in! By: Eng. Hussein Adan Igeh |Hussein Deyr I believe there is something special about being Somalilanders! The spirit of Somalilanders and social togetherness, the capacity for common and shared destiny that allows us to pull together in times of challenge and times of adversity is something special! The true nature, power, moral fibre and quality of the people of Somaliland manifests when we are united and when we stand together- not when we are a splintered, quarrelling and polarized nation. The festivities of 22nd Anniversary of Somaliland's Independence Day (May 18th 2013) were a well-expressed, admirable and powerful worldwide national event. It was indeed a clear message to the outside world as well as to Somaliland's antagonists. All in all, the way in which the Somaliland people have fulfilled their civic duties and the way in which we celebrated, commemorated and gave an expression of our people's pride in this very special day; it was a wonder worthy phenomenon in the entire African continent. The people of the Somaliland Republic have shown to the outside world their values, belief and exceptional quality with respect to their independence, freedom, aspirations and self-determination for statehood. The cheerful and high-spirited celebration style of our national independence and showed nationalistic sense of togetherness among the Somaliland's population is something special! Somalilanders are the only nation in the African continent who is actually quite capable to celebrate their independence day at global level. The 18th May of every year has become a worldwide event. This is what makes Somalilanders quite exceptional and a unique population. As a citizen of the Somaliland Republic, I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate and say thank you to my beloved fellow Somalilanders for their endeavour and determination in defending of their independence, freedom and their universal rights for self-determination. 2.0 Somalilanders are still traumatised by the Historic Mistake For many years, the people of Somaliland were subjected to a brutal oppression and a systematically ethnic cleansing campaign at the hands of the former cruel dictatorial regime and its ruthless cohorts. Whenever they reflect on these atrocities, it is still burning into their hearts & minds as the model for the highest degree of terror against the humanity. It is common knowledge that the Nobel people of the Somaliland Republic had not only rendered the biggest contribution to the independent struggle in the colonial era, but surrendered everything they cherished most for the sake Somali Union, including the hard-won independence on June 26th 1960. These facts are not in dispute, though rarely acknowledged by the people of Somalia. Somalilanders are still deeply traumatised by the historic and costly mistakes of their own making by joining (without condition) a union with Somalia and therefore sacrificing the hard-won independence and sovereignty for the sake of an unfruitful and counterproductive project concept of the Greater Somalia. They will never forget the atrocities and destruction they suffered at hands of the people they (Somalilanders) considered as their real brothers. The people of Somaliland will never join again whatsoever a union with the failed state of Somalia at the cost of their freedom. They have tested the real benefit and value of the independence, freedom, rule of law and democracy. The current government of Somaliland should realise that our society's rules and governance must be based on and derived from the ideals that are believed in and lived by our people. A social justice and equality applied in every rank of Somaliland people has to manifest and reflect the values and history of our great nation. The Somaliland citizens must also have the rights to exercise fully their constitutional rights and ability to speak their mind and have a say in how they are governed; they should have confidence in the rule of law and the equal administration of justice. As a nation, we share the same roots, history and values as we also cherish the same fate and future. Therefore, the things that unite us and keep our people together as a nation are far more important than those factors that divide us or create social disagreement. When it comes to the existence and sovereignty of our country and the aspirations and self determination of the people of Somaliland, we all know it's the simple and only thing that counts among many other things that we may hold a different view. The future is as bright as we make it! We ought to fight for what we believe in! God Bless the Republic of Somaliland and its Nobel people By: Architectural-Eng. Hussein Adan Igeh |Hussein Deyr |UK|

Who said only HAG websites reported it Here are some others http://www.lasanod.com/details.php?num=9333 http://www.allpuntland.com/2010/anmviewer.asp?a=2116&z=1 tallow iyaguna ma HAG baa lol.

Oke guys i made it up its all may fault nothing is true all the websites are lying. Nothing happened it was a car accident.

Just moments after hearing that his brother had been arrested, Bashe Abdi Godane saw the convoy of police cars descending on his mother’s home. Seven vehicles roared down the dusty street in the noonday sun. Dozens of masked gun-wielding police commandos leaped out of the cars, blocked off the area and scaled the cracked walls to ransack the frail woman’s modest brick home. IBM Their target was her son, Ahmed Abdi Godane, the shadowy and reclusive leader of Somalia’s biggest terrorist group, al-Shabaab. But after the police arrested two of his brothers and seized a batch of wedding videos from the house where Mr. Godane was born and raised, officials admitted they had found no evidence that the terrorist leader was in touch with his family here. Across Somalia, the noose is tightening on al-Shabaab. The radical Islamic militia, which once controlled almost all of Mogadishu and southern Somalia, is on the defensive these days as it steadily loses ground to Western-backed forces. Even here, in the breakaway region of Somaliland in the northwestern corner of the country, authorities are imprisoning some of the militia leader’s family members without charges or trial. The police raid, launched within days of a U.S. demand for action in Somaliland, showed how an anti-terrorism campaign can have an unintended spillover in neighbouring regions, far from the main suspects. Eager to prove their anti-terrorist credentials and to curry favour with Western powers, Somaliland’s leaders were susceptible to dubious requests for a heavy-handed crackdown on family members who were apparently unconnected to the al-Shabaab leader. Mr. Godane, educated at an Islamic school in Pakistan, was one of the founders of al-Shabaab, and he led the militia into a crucial alliance with al-Qaeda in 2008 when he pledged allegiance to Osama bin Laden. He is said to be uncharismatic, releasing his statements in audio messages posted on jihadi websites. Rejecting the nationalist wing of the militia, he has vowed to keep pursuing jihad until the entire Horn of Africa is under an Islamic government. Al-Shabaab’s decline over the past two years is linked to the growing size and muscle of the Western-financed military offensive against it. Under relentless attack from invading Kenyan troops in southern Somalia and an African military coalition in Mogadishu, the extremist militia has lost huge swaths of territory in the south and centre of the country. It has been pushed back from the Kenyan border and out of the key cities of Mogadishu and Kismayu, forcing it to switch to hit-and-run guerrilla tactics. At the same time, al-Shabaab’s leadership is reportedly plagued by bitter rifts over tactics and ideology. The United States has placed a $7-million bounty on Mr. Godane’s head, along with smaller bounties for other leaders of the group. And now even his family is not safe from pressure. The raid was conducted in early May, just days after a meeting in Washington between the Somaliland president, Ahmed Silanyo, and a senior U.S. State Department official, Wendy Sherman, the Undersecretary for Political Affairs. According to a U.S. statement after the April 25 meeting, the two officials discussed “the need to combat al-Shabaab” among other issues. But despite the U.S. demands, the police were unable to prove any contacts between Mr. Godane and his family in Hargeisa, according to Hirsi Ali Haji Hassan, the Somaliland minister of presidential affairs. “We were suspicious, but we didn’t find evidence,” he said in an interview. “You have to check everything. We are still investigating.” As part of the crackdown on the family, two brothers of the terrorist leader have been detained for weeks or months without being charged with any offence. One brother, Ali, was arrested in Hargeisa the day of the police raid. Another brother, Mukhtar, was arrested four months ago and remains in custody in a Hargeisa prison, according to Bashe Abdi Godane, a third brother. Bashe, a 54-year-old unemployed labourer, said his elderly mother was so frightened and traumatized by the police raid that it left her unable to talk. Mr. Hassan acknowledged that no charges have been laid against any family members. They can be kept in custody for 90 days without charges, he said. The family has not seen Ahmed Godane since the 1990s, and it does not share his extremist views, Bashe said. If the authorities want to capture him, they could easily find him with Western surveillance technology, he said. “I don’t know where he is, but even the White House knows where he is,” Bashe said in an interview. “We don’t have any correspondence with him. Why they are jailing us, I don’t know. They are always investigating us, and we are innocent. I don’t have any idea about al-Shabaab or what they are doing or what they want.” He says he can’t get a job in Somaliland because employers refuse to hire him when they discover he has the same surname as the leader of al-Shabaab. He’s been unemployed since returning from construction jobs in the Middle East in 2007. “I’m frustrated,” he says. “Everywhere I go, when people hear my name, they get excited about it. They’ve closed every job to us.” Khader Aden Hussein, a member of the Somaliland parliament, says the police raid on the Godane family will spark a backlash. “It was badly handled,” he said. “I don’t think anyone is happy about it. Just because you are someone’s brother, you don’t put him in jail.”

It's absurd. 2: who's "they" who mare calling me "stand down"?? 3: I support Kenya because I care about Somalia. You see, we Somalis made a terrible mistake by alienating Kenya and pushing it to the arms of Ethiopia, our eternal enemy. Our lack of forethought has meant we have made a potential ally against Ethiopia an enemy; a silly thing really. Plus the Kenyans are malleable and easy to control unlike the habash. I believe with skill, we can have these people under our thump. ready to be used in future offensives against the habash. But to achieve this we must put aside our petty dislike for them and think of the future. Feel me? Good strategy i never looked it from that perspective:D You always know how to twist it.. But what makes you think the Kikiyus can be controlled, they are very hard headed , but you are right they are weaker than the habashis. The Habashis are mentally stronger , than the poor bantus. So i get your point. Apophis you are right about Somali diid, Somali is an ethnicity and a cultural identity. You cant be a Somali diid if you have beef with another Somali:D

Is his wife important?

Well i like to speak to the Englishmen in addis ababa not in Somalia but that doesn't mean i am against Somalis.If Djibouti had a British embassy i would go there its closer. But its like me saying the British ambassador to Somalia was based in Kenya. Thus koonfurians want to be ruled form Nairobi , Well that's technically not a good example because there are many elements in Somalia who wish to be ruled from Nairobi. War dadkinan Somalinimo waad ka fogtid eeh iga taga.

^^ Not really they started calling Somalilanders Somalid after the afro hashimites left the union, and they felt lonely, before that they loved Somalilanders well atleast some of them not all. But they forgot all about me because Somalilanders were gone for to long. Now Apophis you are on the horizon. And they are all now well most of them are very anti Kenya the country you like and the country that schooled you. How does it feel to be a Somalidid in Somalia while siding with another country:D

Apophis for me it doesn't mean anything they the koonfurians can call me what they like:D, but what does it mean to you

^^ Ruled from Addis ababa never. dealing with the English in Ethiopia is something else. Xiligi aad wax isku walaaqi jirtay ba la gaadhay.

Apophis they called you a Somalidiid, how does it feel:D
