I barely text, maybe once in a week, and any texts send to me are never answered or disappear. I'm like the Bermuda triangle. There is something strange about not seeing or hearing a person's reaction to what you have to say, it doesn't sit well with me, I get paranoid lol.

You could die tomorrow, so would it really matter if the guy you liked is five years younger? It's not like you were promised tomorrow. Biological clock is meaningless, there are so many beautiful Somali orphans that need a home today, and I'm pretty sure those well off Somali sisters could provide them with one, if by misfortune they found themselves infertile, or they decided they aren't interested in giving birth themselves.

Now that's what I call a stream of conscience lol Seriously though, 9 out of 10 times those type of men don't lead particularly challenging lives full of combative competition from other men, so they are forced to find it at home, and the scapegoats are usually their wives, though the latter can be just as manipulative. I'm a peaceful person, and prefer as little friction as possible, but I have to say though, there is something beautiful about reconstructing a relationship, it's like your rediscovering the things you liked about eachother, some of which you had forgotten. Maybe every 7 years you should do something nasty and get the blood pumping in the relationship lol, no hitting or cheating though, because I read somewhere that if you hit or cheat on a woman, the mental impact is irreversible i.e things will never be the same EVER again.

As if atheists never invented systems that simplified and pre-packaged entire complex societies. Ever heard of communism? Where was the free thought in this case? Indeed, an atheist system like Communism is responsible for the death of at least 100 million people in both Russia and China, this is a death toll a million 'muslim' suicide-bombers could never match, and the irony in this comparison is the reality that the percentage of suicide-bombers in the 1.5 billion global muslim population is next to nothing, indeed the majority of Muslims ask themselves various existential questions on a daily basis, and they remain firmly muslim. Atheists usually accuse religious people of having 'blind faith' while they ignore their own 'blind doubt'. Their spiritual poverty is cloaked as being 'enlightened' or 'thinking independently', when they are basically immoral anarchists in collision with general society. Their disorganised beliefs go against the human nature of 'order' and 'organisation', all of which are deeply rooted in religion. They try to invoke the 'false dilemma' fallacy to ridicule religious practicioners and their orderly way of life, yet they live in societies based on 'rules' and 'laws' and on 'morals', which they themselves follow and apply in daily life; i.e others thought out 'how they should behave in society', and the atheists sheepishly adhere to it abidingly. Deep down they know the beliefs they hold go against human nature, and its a scary dark feeling of loneliness, and while they will never admit it; secretly they envy the masses that are content with following an organised religion. It's why they indulge and occupy themselves completely with materialistic objects and wealth to compensate, because somewhere along the way in their lives, in the vortex of their mind, certain neurons clashed with others and made their nervous system incapable of religious thought. It's a brain-defect comparable to problematic youth that suffered trauma during their childhood and as a result in adulthood they are incapable of processing emotions. Their minds are majoritely analytical, with a small minority intuitive, while from the study above we know amongst religious people its more balanced. Which is why when educated religious people analyse their own religion and their place in it, they do not engage in 'blind doubt' instead they scrutinise it, and then accept it through intuition. Its an emotion the Atheists unfortunately have lost, hence their absolutist stance on any matter pertaining God or Heaven. It's quite clear that Atheists suffer from delusions of grandeur, a comical self-perception that they are more 'unique' than the rest of religious humanity, because they rejected the concept of a higher intelligence, which is tantamount to an Ant in a forest in Zambia rejecting the concept of a higher intelligence living at the International Space Station. Indeed that disbelieving Ant would go as far as telling all the other Ants that they are ignorant sheep for believing in something they do not have the means to 'prove'. It makes them feel special in society, they are societal rebels equivalant to 70s Punk rockers fighting the establishment, However those 70s Punk rockers eventually do away with childish things and naturally melt with society, while atheists maintain their brain-defect until they hit the grave, because we are dealing with a cult here, one a religious person should feel empathy with, for the only reason we do not share their dark inner lonely thoughts is because our neurons successfully transmitted and processed information, and the building blocks of our nervous system remained intact. This is why we are content in life.

Imagine 10 Singapores in 1 Somalia. We have the resources to make it happen.

Their loyalty would not be to a region or a clan, but to the State that raised them, and it is the state that they would protect from both domestic and foreign enemies.

^The City would first create a strong unified national identity, and as it becomes more prosperous, it would steadily absorb the lands of the Old Republic. If Somalis had a city equivalant to Hong Kong today, their influence in Africa would be paramount and widespread, not to mention their ability to defend and wage war would be infinitely greater than the past and the situation their currently in, which is active containment of Somali Nationalism through an arms-embargo, and intentionally prolonging the conflict through well-placed proxies.

Come up with something better, saxib. A Swiss organisation recently uncovered that 40% of the world's wealth is controlled by an intricately connected 1% elite. I do not believe in the Illuminati, but you can bet your azz that this 1% is part of a secret society known under a different name. They are currently being challenged by the rising Chinese Secret Society, that is pressing home the fact that Asia is their domain. No, I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but sometimes the evidence is just too big to be ignored.

All those seeking to subdue the Somali people and their aspirations focused their attention on this specific city and made sure the capital remained in flames. Even today as peace is returning, you can see them hard at work through their planted proxies such as Al-Shabaab, and certain traitor politicians. A new place, one that's secret and heavily guarded, and one too difficult to access would be better. A place where a Secret Somali Society could take root; overseeing the well-being and interests of the Somali people, without being infiltrated by foreigners in the form of NGOs, embassies, etc. Mogadishu could remain the capital, but the Secret City would be where the real power lies, and where traitors and foreign spies could easily be identified and neutralised. An independent underground army of 50 thousand Somali soldiers only answering to the Secret Council could lie await to thwart any illegitimate coups, or wrongful use of power by a Somali president. The Secret City would be the 'check and balance' we need in Somali politics.

The first President had swag, and was much loved, even the most hardcore qabiilists I have met have a soft spot for this leader. If we had just one city where all the ideals and dreams of the Old Republic are combined and expanded, it would redeem us as a people.

I feel really sad for his family, because this was a quite guy, never in trouble, always studying and focusing on making it far in life. I'm tempted to do a full scan myself, from head to toe, just to be safe.

God bless the Old Republic.

Two northern Somali ports alone make $2 billion annually from exports, and many animals die during the grazing period because of lack of water, and difficult transport. Railway links to established grazing areas that are all-year long watered would not only double the live-stock population, but you would also be looking at an export volume hitting the $10 billion easily when the network is increased to include more countries. You would need two lines, one to Berbera, the other to Bosaso, 150-250km depending on where the grazing farms are located. That's around $300 to $500+ million for each line, which could easily be financed independently by the Live-stock industry and then maintained through the fares taken from passengers. With each year as profits grow, the two lines could be linked with other cities and towns in the North. In the South the old Jowhar-Mogadishu line could be regenerated and expanded(they were planning on doing this before the war). Here too, the agricultural industry could generate enough funds through high value crops like Bananas, mangos, etc to establish a large system, at least 1000km in size, hitting all the major fertile regions and cities; Gedo, Jowhar, Beledweyne, Afgoye, Jamaame, Mogadishu, Kismayo, etc. These projects would create hundreds of thousands of jobs, and connect the country in a way the highways and roads never could. However we have brain-dead leaders and cancerous militants. This useless lot of excrements are hampering the progressive initiatives of our business leaders, be it broadband cables, internet banking, or agriculture. In this day and age, a railway project would never have the protection it needs for it to be successfully established, nor will it have the independent Somali funds to allow its creation. Foreign loans are not an option, and must never be considered, especially those from the IMF or the World Banc.

One example was the $250 million spent on the Garoe-Bosaso road that stretched 450 kilometers across barren desert that was crossed only by nomads on foot - Africa in chaos - Page 285 Post a few of the deals, sounds interesting.

There would have been a rail-network in Somalia for a decade or two already, and massive dams as well, but we have denied ourselves alot of infrastructural projects with this pointless conflict.

Its amusing that you would try to discredit my theoretic excercise by dubbing it 'sci-fi', when the greatest advances in the last 30 years were done by Star-Wars and Star-Trek fans. I'm sure Sillicon-Valley once upon a time was considered a figment of someone's imagination, yet the innovations from that place are currently shaping your life. Pax-Somalica doesn't have to start as a metropolis, it could start as a University, where the brain and the leadership of the metropolis is cultivated first before it steadily expands.

It's an equilibrium that might not rid us of clannism... but will make it, at least, subservient to the state or our common good. When people look at the likes of KingofKings, Dr Osman, Relentless, and Xaaji Xunjuf, they see regionalists, seccessionists and clannists, I do too, however one can't deny their passion or resourcefulness. Imagine if things had not panned out negatively they way it did in our country; these characters would have been at the forefront of Pan-Somalism, the posterboys of a powerful Somalia, spreading the message and defending the Somali Republic. However I feel like they were corrupted, and that has made them the men they are today, competing with themselves. The most wasteful rivalry is sibling rivalry. Pax-Somalica would be a place that shapes and reshapes Somali men and women into a new breed of nationalists.

The 21000km road-network is worth billions, certain sections like the Garowe-Bosaso road, or the Berbera-Burco road were close to $250 million each, add to that the airport-infrastructure. Then you have also the various factories and power-plants scattered across the country, that's another billion.(regardless if some of them are working or not, we can use the steel). Then you have the port-infrastructure, be it the deepsea ones or the minor ones, they were all developed by the Somali Port Authority. I'm not disintergrating the Somali people, in Pax Somalica any Somali regardless of where his/her origin is in the Somali peninsula would be welcome, however on the condition that their minds are not shackled to a region or a clan.

You knew because I crashed your noble savage porn topic a few years ago and utterly destroyed it.

Xiin, this is a kind gesture and Mogadishu is a city I'm deeply in love with regardless of its current state, and regardless of the fact I have nothing to connect me with it. It remains the city that has freed my mind from the shackles of clan. However I reject the Foreign Policy article 'Once Upon A Time in Mogadishu'. I find it disgusting and full of disinformation; the Portuguese were destroyed by the Sultan of Mogadishu, they never held the city, the French never controlled any inch of modern Somalia, and the Brits and Italians were there for only a few decades, not 'centuries', and their contribution is next to nothing. We build Mogadishu, we destroyed it, and we are the ones who will rebuild it. Its no longer the most 'dangerous city' in the world. This is the type of Vintage Mogadishu I'm into:
