The defeated lot always end up being defeated. The cv of the defeated lot the clanish WSLF who were defeated by the Ethnic Somalilanders in Galbeed in the early 80s The siad bare government was defeated by Somalilanders and the armed faction in Somalia called USC The Ethiopian forces and Cabdilahi Yusuf were defeated in 2009 Politically and Military definitely borrowed muscles The defeated lot are now riding on top of Kikuyo tanks in the hope to liberate villages in the lower juba:D Alaylahee wa Xiiniyo la so amaahday:D

And the dreams of some continues after almost 22 years. It went from Somaliland doesn't exist we will not talk to Somaliland never ever To Somaliland is a little province that will be brought back by force Somaliland will break in clan states and the Govt in Somalia will support such clan states We will ignore Somaliland and it will self destruct Somalilanders will fight over power after their elections results. its always a small group in Somalia that is always fixated on Somaliland when ever something positives happens in Somalia. They try to link that to Somaliland in a negative perspective.

Somalia and Somaliland haven't yet reached a way to pay each other a diplomatic visit it will come in the near future when we reach the second phase of the talks of Somaliland and Somalia. It will stay with congratulating each other for a while.

Taleexi who do you want as PM?

When Adan Cadde died, your leadership did not show respect , when Abdullaahi Yusuf died your leadership did not participate in jinaazah, but when Zenawi died you were the first to go. Now is the time my brothers. Do the right thing, and come to Mogadishu Not Gonna happen:D By the way when Adan cade died President rayaale did send his condolences Even When Cabdilahi Yusuf died President Siilaanyo did send his condolences Inauguration of a neighbor is not that important but Siilaanyo congratulated the new president of Somalia that's enough.

Thats in four days i don't think President Siilaanyo will come Siilaanyo hasn't set foot in xamar in 30 years and i don't think he will set foot in Somalia in a few days time. Xiinfaniin how many foreign delegates will be at the inauguration?

Carafaat whether he is from Puntland or gedo lets just hope the president selects a prime minister who can do the job thats what matters.

Those peddling " clan international borders " and a "President " in every tuulo are just plain mad!! Hillary Clinton should worry more about whether obama selects here again as the foreign secretary of state or not. The united states policy on Somalia and Somaliland hasn't changed a bit supporting the dual track approach for Somalia and Somaliland the support of clan federalism in Somalia. The Fight against islamist in Somalia,continue to support Somaliland democratization process and let Somaliland and Somalia clarify their own future relations.The West including the united states is very neutral on the case of Somaliland and Somalia.The united states well the bush administration clearly said that they will support Somaliland recognition if its done through the African union the Bush administration went even as far as saying that they should swift the power to Somaliland. Its not like kurdistan that is being hold hostage by a NATO member Turkey and a US ally in the region. Somaliland has the best case in Africa legally and it will take a political solution in the long term Neighboring IGAD countries are not clearly opposed to Somaliland statehood. But they only fear for their own territorial integrity Mobassa secession in Kenya and the O'gaden secession in Ethiopia. Egypt has a new regime because of this new govt that took over Egypt they finally started to formulate a real foreign policy for the first time since Anwar al sadat.The Mubarak Govt allowed sudan to split they lost pretty much all their influance in Africa that the gamaal abdulnasir regime built in the 50s 60s to comete with the Israeli influance. The First visit of the Egyptian foreign minister was not to Washington or brussels but it was to sudan khartoum. Egypt wants its influance back in the region and in Africa and they want to focus on that.Former African union chairman Alpha Kunare was very pro Somaliland the case of Somaliland was raised at the african union a few times the Egyptians strongly opposed any discussion of Somaliland and they suqashed the efforts of alpha kunare to give SL a associate member status in the AU. He suggested that Somaliland should start talks with the TFG but at that time Somalia was a total mess there were Ethiopians icu muqawamo shabaab .But talks are now starting to take place so lets see how that goes i predict a very peaceful future of Somaliland and Somalia.

^^ Carafaat Somalia is taking baby steps towards the right direction if you reject every little improvement in Somalia than i have to consider u a spoiler Mr.

Oba does carafaat have something against beesha Unuka who are the most welcoming Somalis ever , What is Carafaats problem i can tell you why carafaat is angry hiil qaran lost:D

Siyaasi the so called MPs that are supposed to represent the people of Somaliland were not appointed and selected by the Somaliland elders so we dont know how they will vote besides that only 44 MPs are from Somaliland. So the guys nimanki shaqo tagay they voted for different candidates sharif the new president Faarmaajo Cabdi weli.

Somali militants claim responsibility for hotel blasts Reuters – NAIROBI (Reuters) - Somalia's al Shabaab rebels carried out a bomb attack on Wednesday that targeted a Mogadishu hotel where the president and Kenya's visiting foreign minister were holding a news conference, the group said. "(Al Shabaab) successfully targets a hotel near the airport in Mogadishu where a high profile meeting was being held," the al Qaeda-linked insurgent group said on its official Twitter handle. Somalia's new President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Kenyan Foreign Minister Sam Ongeri were not hurt in the attack. (Reporting by Richard Lough)

Ethiopia’s ruling party prepares to elect new chairman (ADDIS ABABA) - Ethiopia’s ruling coalition, the Ethiopia Peoples Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF) is expected to hold a meeting on 16 September to elect the party’s new chairperson who also will most likely be the successor of the late prime minister, Meles Zenawi. Following the death of Zenawi on 20 August, the deputy prime minister and foreign affairs Minister, Hailemariam Desalegn has been the acting prime minister of Ethiopia. Desalegn was supposed to be officially sworn in on Thursday however the ruling party delayed the appointment raising concerns from opposition groups and uncertainty from the public on the viability of the post-Zenawi new leadership. Ethiopian Democratic Party (EDP), one of the country’s biggest opposition groups on Wednesday said the fact that the country still remains to be led by an acting prime minister indicates the country is not in a full functional state and could create a power vacuum. Speaking to Sudan Tribune some opposition groups have speculated that the delay on the appointment of country’s new leader might be due to internal conflict among the heavy weights within the EPRDF leadership. The Ethiopian government has dismissed concerns from the public that the death of the late premier could create power vacuum in the horn of Africa’s nation. According to government officials, the newly elected chairman of the ruling EPRDF party will most likely take on the government until next elections in 2015. “We are expecting the council meeting to be on the 16th,” Seikoture Getachew, the foreign relations head at the Ethiopian Peoples’ Revolutionary Democratic Front’s secretariat, told Bloomberg. “There will be the assignment of chairperson and deputy chairperson.” He added. Ethiopia, on 2 September, held a state funeral of the country’s long-time leader. Tens of thousands of people including dozens of African leaders and hundreds of foreign dignitaries’ attended the funeral. All leaders of Ethiopia neighbour’s attended the funeral ceremony with the exception of Eritrea. However the Red Sea nation which remains at loggerheads with Ethiopia over the unresolved border dispute has gave its respects over Zenawi’s death via Binyam Berhe, Eritrea’s envoy to the Africa Union. Berhe signed at the condolences book and has also shook the hand of Azeb Mesfin, the wife of Prime Minister Meles Zenawi. Ethiopia and Eritrea fought a 1998-2000 border war over their disputed boundary that killed an estimated 70,000 people.

There are lots of questions to be asked about the future relations between the two sides. There are questions to be asked about the UK's "Consulate" in SL and the fact that it will report to Matt Baugh instead of the guy in Ethiopia, etc, etc, etc... Is Siilaanyo hedging his bets here or does he believe some of this stuff does not matter? Like I say, if "unionists" such as A&T had it in them, they could come up with loads of uncomfortable questions for SL and its future, fortunately, they're all great experts when it comes to "waxa la yedhi" only. The Hargeysa consulate will be linked to the Embassy in Addis ababa rather than Matt baugh in Nairobi. The Somaliland govt knows that you will hear more about this in the coming weeks.
