thanks for the pics :eek: and the Capital still looks good :cool: but the nr2 pic makes me wish i was born in the 70's

my uncle married a beautiful one and she's loved by the whole family i'm kinda bored with these generalisations projected at me armed men in Somalia were displacing and destroying the lives of ethnic somalis as well

and the courts will deal with him accordingly. ps are you denying the defections cause the news i read on shabellenews is usually reported by other media outlets a few hrs later

pure genius they let a few dozen infiltrate the camps and this is the result A large number of Abdi Qeydid’s militiamen unite with Islamic Courts Aweys Osman Yusuf Mogadishu 30, Oct.06 ( Sh.M.Network) Nearly 100 militiamen armed with small arms and accompanied by five battlewagons have defected from warlord col. Abdi Qeybdid, joining the Union of Islamic Courts fighters in Adado, Mudug province central Somalia. Ali Abdulle Ahmed, an Islamic officer, has told Shabelle Radio in Mogadishu that number of militias and 5 battlewagons that broke away from Col. Abdi Qeybdid, one of the defeated warlords, have united with the Islamists who administer most central strategic areas in Somalia. Ali has also pointed out that they are in process of convincing other militiamen loyal to Qeybdid to desert and join the Courts. Abdi Qeydid was the last warlord and member of the defeated anti-terror alliance evicted from the capital Mogadishu early June this year when the Union of Islamic Courts vehemently expanded their powers throughout central and southern parts of the country. Abdi Qeybdid could not be reached for comments over his militias that defected and joined the powerful Islamists.

Let them go there and work as street cleaners. streetcleaners indeed DUBAI The largest African community in Dubai is the Somalis, driven out of their home by years of unrest. Somali businesses line the streets of the city centre, Deira; internet cafes, hotels, coffee shops, restaurant and import-export businesses are testimony to the Somalis' entrepreneurial spirit. Star African Air is one of three Somali-owned airlines which have headquarters in Dubai rather than in Somalia. The Somalis seem to have cornered this niche market for West African jewellery: half a dozen of them are doing brisk business here. "My customers come from Senegal, Mali, Ghana, The Gambia, and from the east of Africa as well," says shop owner Farhia Islow Adam Dubai's proximity, economic climate and infrastructure has served Somali business well. The Somali Business Council in Dubai has a membership of about 200 companies. (Unofficial numbers could be much higher, though.)

Also in other settlements in UAE there were in creasing numbers of Somali families shifted from Europe, Australia and north America and see the UAE as an Islamic country and at the same time as a country that had a long relationship with Somalia and had more considerations to Somali society. How long are you gonna embarass the Umma like that, pretending to be more muslims than and more pious than others. there's a difference between calling for a shariah state and calling people non muslims don't confuse the two My people in S-land and P-land have been muslims as long as my people have been in the South and my people in S-land and P-land will put pressure on their administrations to implement shariah law like there are doing now Already, Islamist sympathisers have held demonstrations in Hargeisa, calling for the imposition of Sharia law. Somaliland occupies a strategically vital position on the Gulf of Aden, with a large port at Berbera. david.blair@telegraph.co.uk and now the growing ICU support by my people in S-land Newspaper Critical of Islamic Courts is Publicly Burned in Somaliland's Second City Reporters Without Borders has voiced concern that an angry crowd in Buro, the second largest city in the northern breakaway territory of Somaliland, burned more than a thousand copies of the independent daily "Haatuf" on 13 October 2006 on the grounds that it criticises the Mogadishu-based Islamic courts. "Newspaper-burning is serious and should be condemned by all those who claim to be the guarantors of peace in Somalia," the press freedom organisation said. "The Somaliland authorities must take steps to identify and punish those behind this public outrage. And those who incited this mob should realise it is an unacceptable and dangerous thing to do. Criticism is an inalienable right that you suppress to your own cost." Around 100 people took part in the public newspaper-burning in protest against "Haatuf"'s reports criticising the Union of Islamic Courts (UIC), which has controlled Mogadishu and two thirds of Somalia's provinces since the summer. Somaliland has had de facto independence from the rest of Somalia since 1991 continues You have embarassed Africa by pretending Arab. Not only that you want to burn down an entire section of Africa. africa embarrassed itself Ethiopia is the nr 1 aid recipient in africa don't translate being muslims into being arabs and don't confuse a popular homegrown movement to Al-Qaeda as your agame uncle wants us to believe We have no choice you have go seek political asylum like your uncle mengistu We will decorate your house without your consent. We will not have that privilege after we occupy your house. you definitly won't have that privilage after you disastrously fail to attempt to occupy my house and then get send running like a scared dog with his tail between his legs Inshallah, with their help, Galguudud will be the heart of Ethiopia. insha-allah your european masters will leave your agame uncle on his own and then it's only you and me and then addiss ababa will be Finn finne again and you will be my personal shoe shiner

what happend in baidoa?? i heard government troops clashed with locals and then deserted the camps

MOGADISHU, Somalia --Somalia's Islamic group said Sunday it would not attend peace talks with the transitional government, demanding that Ethiopian troops withdraw from the country. The talks, scheduled to start Monday in the Sudanese capital Khartoum, were supposed to focus on power sharing between the two rivals amid fears a war could engulf the region. "We will not take part in the Khartoum talks unless Ethiopia withdraws its troops from Somalia," Ibrahim Hassan Adow, the group's foreign affairs chief, told The Associated Press. Although an 18-strong Islamic delegation flew out to Sudan Sunday, Adow said they will not engage with the interim administration until Ethiopian troops leave. Ethiopia has acknowledged several hundred trainers are in Somalia, providing military expertise to its ally and internationally recognized government. continues

In the South. well that's more than i can say of the TFG You might have some points there. many many points whom you have ignored for some odd reason Sld doesn't recognize the Courts either never said they did! red herring! but TFG has more chance to bring them (SLD) into the SomaliWayn fold. last time i checked the residents of Buroa weren't burning thousands of newspapers that were critizing the TFG no those newspapers that were burned were criticizing the ICU and ICU won't invade P-land or S-land as you are hoping the respective locals will implement their own courts and there will be a national forum like the ICU called for in the past if these talks don't progress So tell your uncles to stop threatening them. that's strange i didn't know the president of TFG was threatening S-land i've must have missed something don't think all puntlanders have the same political stand as brother duke You are making it sound like the Courts believe in elections. my my my if the ICU only practiced the same form of elections and democracy we see in Ethiopia we would be one happy nation wouldn't we?? kkkkkkkkkkkk At any rate, this majority/minority concept does not exist in Sharia because the Xaaq is never derived from the vote count but the words of Allah. in exodus 20:1-17 it's says you shall not steal that includes people's lands tell your uncles they need to return it to the rightfull non tigre and amhara owners

Does you tally of cities and towns include, Kismayo,Brava,Bossasso,....and countless commmunities in the Jubboyinkaa. If you did, then you numbers are wrong first of all these are not my numbers these numbers come from people on the ground but your very naive thinking the TFG has more home support than the ICU even the business elites are all backing the ICU and I want a re-count. the ethiopian people demand a recount will they ever get it?? hmmmmmm..... You can not make us leave if we are not there. peek-A-boo Secondly, the TFG army does not need any help to defend itself against the ICU. lool my gwa deegna only a dedeb would believe this.. i'm sure your not one!

The least you can do is thank them for welcoming the people you are displacing with your guns. pleasee leave your patronising words for the those who are ignorant of Kenya's economic situation somali refugees are the best thing that happend to Kenya despite what these media outlets try to claim whole slums were turned into profit making machines kenya Eastleigh businesses have also brought tremendous competition to the market place,which has had a negative effect on many of the Asian businesses in particular. The Asian community has hitherto controlled most of the retail business in Kenya, yet the owners of these businesses can now be seen purchasing their wholesale merchandise from Somalis.According to Narayan Mehta, owner of a city centre hardware store, Most Asians don’t like to admit it, but the Somalis are really cutting into our businesses. They are willing to live and work in Eastlands areas where most Asians won’t even visit -Narayan Mehta The cornerstone of this development, the famous ‘Garissa Lodge,’ serves today as asymbol of refugee businesses in Eastleigh. Many Somalis resided in this former guesthouse before its transformation into a modern retail shopping mall, officially renamed Little Dubai but popularly referred to as ‘Garissa.’ From small scale ‘black market’trading in hotel rooms, today Garissa houses 58 stalls in which everything from designer clothing to electronics is sold at incredibly cheap prices. Compare the price of, for instance, a ‘real’ Sony radio (be sure, there are many fakes). At Garissa Lodge the goingrate is 350 Ksh. An identical radio sold in the city centre goes for 500 Ksh. In the commercial centre of Westlands, a wealthy suburb, the same radio is sold for 600 Ksh.While this is only one example, the table below shows the price differential of many staple goods and services consumed by the majority of people Throughout the 1990s Eastleigh was transformed, largely by Somali businessmen,from a residential community to the commercial centre of Eastlands, and increasingly much of Nairobi. the Somalis have also created work for local Kenyans, many of whom are hired as low-wage, unskilled labourers. More lucrative jobs include working on Somali-owned matatus and as mechanics. With the general infusion of capital in the area, Kenyan residents of the larger Eastlands area, of which Eastleigh is the commercial centre,increasingly turn toward this refugee-dominated section of the city to seek out a meager living. For many, chances to earn a day’s wage are higher in Eastleigh—the informal economy—than the city centre. In fact, most of the large-scale commercial businesses in Eastleigh are now part and parcel of Nairobi’s formal economy, where greater numbers of the city’s residents are increasingly turning for access to cheap goods and livelihood opportunities somalis in Kenya are putting big paper in the Kenyan economy People who talk about oil embargo, must first of all have oil. Do you have oil? No, you don't. before you engage yourself in a discussion make sure you know what your talking about! Nayruus wasn't talking about oil in the ground no! he was talking about the oil imports that go trough the mogadishu port to Baidoa so does he have oil? yes he has! was his so-called talk on a embargo imposed by ICU on target? yes it was! Case closed. indeed! Soon you will find out what the Tigre is made of. loooool you can't even put down those multiple rebel groups in your own home what in the world do you think your going to achieve in a foreign country? your not Uncle Sam you neither have the economic or military rescources to engage in a long war so stop kidding yourself Six Ethiopian soldiers who arrived here opposing the racist policy of the TPLF regime disclosed that at a time when resistance is gaining momentum within the Army, the regime is resorting to increased atrocities by imprisoning members of different ethnic groups. They noted that many Ethiopian soldiers are defecting to different opposition organizations and fleeing to neighboring countries opposing the brutal and harsh measures the TPLF regime is taking against members of the Army.

Sixty-two diplomats and staff members from various Ethiopian Embassies and Consular Offices left their job over the last three months. The total number of diplomats who left the regime after the May 2005 election is more than twice than the number in this list, which is believed to constitute nearly 75% of the diplomatic staff. Two commission members, who were assigned by Meles Zenawi’s “Inquiry Commission” to investigate the massacres against demonstrators in June and November 2005, have reportedly left for Germany with all documents which expose the regime itself of using excessive force against civilians. EMF (Washington)- Wife of Kassahun Ayele, TPLF Ambassador to the United States of America has decided not to return back home to protest the gross human right abuses by Meles regime, sources said.

Also the Press Officer at the Ethiopian Embassy in London, Ato Wagaye Birhanu, also defected to America two weeks ago. The former Press Officer at the Ethiopian Embassy in London, Ato Efrem Mehrete-Ab has also defected and sought political asylum in the USA. Ato Fisseha is an important member of the establishment having served 8 years as a councilor in USA Ethiopian embassy prior to five years as ambassador in London. This is good news for those struggling for the oppressed people of Ethiopia, as it confirms the gradual breakdown of the Meles brutal regime. Several reports are coming to EMF that confirms the defect of top government officials. TPLF Diplomats in Holland Two professional diplomats have also defected earlier from the Netherlands that made the activity of the office very difficult. Source close to the consulate office in The Hague told EMF that the consular is stuffing its office with persons who do not have work permit in the Netherlands, the criteria being only their ethnic identity. Other diplomats in The Hague, including loyal TPLF servant Ato Mohamed Berhan (Zimam, Alex and Nohomi) are sending their families to London. This indicates that the remaining members of the consular are also preparing to defect the Meles regime. Top Diplomats Diplomat Workyie Birye, a chief Ethiopian councilor at European Union has defected to USA to protest Meles crackdown on dissidents. Source told EMF that Mr. Henok Mengistu, chief legal councilor at the Ministry of foreign affairs has defected to the USA. Ethiopian partnership delegation seeks asylum Four Ethiopian politicians who were on an official visit to Dublin have applied for asylum rather than return home, it emerged today. The men were on a six-day visit to launch a partnership between their towns, Werabe and Butajira, and South Dublin County Council. The council said its officials had gone to meet the men on March 27 when they were due to fly home to Ethiopia. “Unfortunately they didn’t turn up for that meeting and we subsequently discovered they had applied for asylum in Dublin,” said spokesman Abe Jacob. The partnership programme was designed to build up the skills and experience of government officials in Ethiopia in delivering services. According to the Irish Examiner, the four men are from the ruling party in Ethiopia and had been staying at the Clarion Hotel in Dublin. The Ethiopian Embassy has expressed its embarrassment about the development and has contacted the council to seek its continued support for the partnership. “The universal view is that we should continue with the project, that the project is bigger than any set of individuals. We’re determined to press ahead with the project,” said Mr Jacob. Five members of the Ethiopian military have defected and joined EPPF. 2nd October 2006 Five members of the 26th Army Division of the Ethiopian military from Azezew City in Gonder have defected from the crumbling Weyane regime and have joined EPPF.

EPPF Information Center Ethiopian officer defects to Germany Sept 24, 2006 (BERLIN) — Defections in the Ethiopian armed forces continue unabated. The latest to defect is Maj. Tesfaye Yemane, an officer in the Ethiopian army, the opposition Ethiopian Review website reported. Maj. Tesfaye told Germany radio (Deutsche Welle) the Amharic service Wednesday 20 September that he is seeking political asylum in Germany, where he was taking a six-month course. Tesfaye, who served in the army for 15 years, said that he decided to defect because the atrocities the Meles regime is currently perpetrating on the people of Ethiopia has bothered his conscience. Several other officers are taking various steps in opposition to the injustice by the regime against the people, Tesfaye said in his interview with Germany radio. He added, the people of Ethiopia are currently living in a hell-like condition. In the past two months alone, two generals, several colonels, and other high-ranking officers have defected, and most of them joined member organizations of the Alliance for Freedom & Democracy. Brig. Gen. Kemal Geltu defected to Eritrea with with 150 Ethiopian soldiers on 10 August. Since, he was followed by several defections. (ST) Ethiopian officers who joined the OLF By Staff Sep 18, 2006, 17:56 Asmara, 18 September 2006 - Two senior Ethiopian Army officers who recently joined the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF) abandoning the TPLF regime said that serving the repressive regime is a historical crime. In an interview with Eritrean Television, Brig. General Hailu Gonfa, who was a senior official in the Ethiopian Defense Ministry and Col. Gemechu Ayana, commander of the 8th Mechanized Force said that the Ethiopian people have gone through untold suffering over the past 15 years and that they have been repeatedly putting forth demands to alter such a state of affairs but to no avail. The two senior army officers went on to say that as their demand fell on deaf ears, they were compelled to raise up arms against the regime and thus join the popular struggle. In Eritrea Brigadier General Hailu Gonfa They stressed that the Army being part of the people should serve a popularly elected government and not individuals. The two officers further pointed out that as the majority of members the Ethiopian Army have come to understand this way of thinking, they are being subjected to heinous repression on the part of TPLF cadres. Stating that the regime is making futile attempts to pit the Ethiopian people against one another on the basis of nationality, ethnicity and regionalism so as to prevent them from fostering unity, Brig. General Hailu Gonfa disclosed that this same divisive policy is being practiced by cadres within the Army who have no sense of patriotism at all. Colonel Gemechu Ayana Recalling the defeat of the TPLF in the 2005 elections, Col. Gemechu Ayana emphasized on his part that serving this illegal clique is a historical crime, and as such it is naive to think that such a brutal regime would change its ways. In a message they conveyed to the Ethiopian people, the two senior Army officers called on the population to continue their resistance in an intensified manner. They particularly reminded the country’s Armed Forces to direct their weapons against the bloodthirsty regime ------------------------------ you want to tell me with all this mayhem going on in your own house your going to sustain a long long war against a determined people ready for battle good luck but remember you don't respect Somalia's sovereignty expect the same respect in the near future! On a more technical note, the president, as the highest official on the land, can invite whomever he wants, he doesn't need the authorization from any clan. oh yes he does 4.5 remember 4.5!!

Telling the Mogadishu crowd they needed to register, Islamist leader Sheikh Sharif Ahmed also urged Somalis to hand in their weapons. "Whether it is a pistol, arrow, or stones, we will accept them," he said. "We have to defend our country. We call upon all Somalis wherever they might be to take part in this jihad." ohhhh these brave men are brilliant they aint going on a jihaad there disarming the public lol
