Experience VS Education, By Abdirahman Mohamed Dirye Egal was born in Oodwayne and gained most of his surviving skills there, but failed, and Siyad spared him as harmless, brainless, but his immaturity, and wise foolishness harmed his people after 40 years so of his release. Egal, was relatively learned without an experience. He just sold his father’s real estates to Ima Boodhle to bribe key stakeholders and buy votes, that is the way he got into political world, easy way anyway, after 2 years, he ended in prison and never came back until Abdirahman Ahmed “ Tuur”, career diplomat and statesman, together his visionary team such as Hassan Isse Jama may Allah spare Him, and the late Maygag Samater, liberated Berbera, Shiekh, Buroa, Erigavo, and caused Mogadishu to rebel and oust Siyad Barre, however, Egal’s ambitions evaporated as he was languishing in dark 2 meter cells in Labaatan Jirow. By M. Diriye – Just less than 30 years ago, Ahmed Mohamoud Siilaanyo, the incumbent president of Somaliland, and the founder of Dahab Shiil, Mohamed Saed were watching each other’s back and had been shoulder to shoulder with each other. They met in the early 80s while the President was in exile and Saed worked in a kiosk called Dhiig Shiil (which loosely translates to blood-smith or exploiter) in Diri Dawa, Ethiopia. As the chairman of the Somali National Movement (SNM), Siilaanyo had received funds from Issaaq sympathizers in the Gulf region and deposited the savings in the Dahab Shiil kiosk which sells cigars and foodstuffs . The chairman’s embezzlements were said to be injected to the kiosk as start-up capital to become a global giant. Though ill-gotten gains are said to never prosper, the embezzlements continued. In the later years, it was so hard to distinguish SNM Funds from that of the Dahab Shiil kiosk. Similarly, Berbera Port’s revenues and the company’s are one. Nonetheless, the clandestine activities that began years ago continue to this day.

OTTAWA, CANADA--(Marketwire - Nov. 27, 2012) - Mindesta Inc. ("Mindesta" or the "Company") (OTCBB:MDST) announces that it has received assay results from its first stage stream sediment and rock sampling program on the Arapsyo, Qabri Bahar and Abdul Qadir exploration permits in the Republic of Somaliland. Arapsyio and Qabri Bahar Permits Over the September, 2011 to April, 2012 period, 2,500 km2 of the Arapsyio and Qabri Bahar permits were sampled at a density of one sample every 1-2 km2. A total of 1,659 stream sediment and 58 rock samples were submitted to the assay laboratory. The following anomalies were identified: A large, well-structured and consistent platinum/palladium anomaly associated with an ultra-mafic intrusive, as well as three smaller anomalies in the same area; Numerous columbite (Ta-Nb oxide) occurrences and stream sediment anomalies, including several artisanal workings; A large, well defined Ni/Co/Cu/Ti/V/Cr anomaly associated with a series of gabbroic complexes. One rock sample assayed 3.9%Cu with background Ni.Co/Ti values and another 6%Cr, 0.02%Co, 0.1%Ni, 0.4%Ti, and 0.05%V; A large tungsten anomaly associated with a granitic intrusive; Molybdenum/bismuth and nearby copper occurrences associated with a large pegmatite zone (values up to 0.80% Mo and 0.49% Bi); Gold and silver anomalies were generally weaker and poorly structured although one returned rock samples that assayed 79 and 17 g/t silver in association with galena. Abdul Qadir Permit From March to July, 2012, approximately 1,400 km2 were sampled and a total of 1,045 stream sediment and 98 rock samples were submitted to the assay laboratory. The following anomalies were identified: 16 contiguous gold anomalies in stream sediments, each averaging approximately 5 x 15 km2 in size; Four copper anomalies, largely associated with basalts; Three zinc anomalies associated with a syenite body and related to Au/Ag/Cu anomalies; A 70 km2 syenite body with a series of Mo prospects over a six km strike length with a nearby interesting Zn/As/Au/Ta/Cd signature in stream sediments; Northern areas with epithermal vein potential were not sampled due to time/money/local issues. Next Steps Encouraging regional anomalies have been identified, particularly for gold, and must be narrowed down by infill stream sediment sampling and prospecting followed by soil sampling and/or geophysics. The Cu/Mo/Bi occurrences are already at a stage where soil sampling and ground geophysics could be carried out. A significant number of secondary anomalies will have to be ground checked on a case by case basis. Gregory Bowes, CEO of Mindesta stated that: "the Company has achieved first mover status in an area of the world which has attractive geology and an underappreciated political situation. While the first stage exploration program was encouraging, the Company is now faced with the challenge of meeting its initial commitment and financing a second stage program in a very difficult market for junior explorers. Options are currently being evaluated." Background The three permits are subject to an Option Agreement with Nubian Gold Corporation ("Nubian") whereby Mindesta can earn a 50% interest in the permits, as well as any permits that Nubian subsequently acquires in the country, by incurring total exploration expenditures of $2 million within two years and can increase its interest to 80 per cent by completing a bankable feasibility study on any permit. Mindesta is required to make an upfront cash payment of $100,000 to Nubian (which has not yet been made) as compensation for expenses incurred, and the first $750,000 of exploration expenditures in 2012 represents a firm commitment. To date approximately $600,000 has been spent. The Arabian/Nubian Shield encompasses parts of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Sudan, Eritrea and Somaliland, and is host to many major mineral deposits including the Bisha oxide gold/VMS mine in Eritrea, the Sukari gold mine in Egypt, the Lega Dembe gold mine in Ethiopia, and five gold/base metal mines in Saudi Arabia. Somaliland has over 30,000 km2 of exposed Precambrian rocks of the favorable Arabian-Nubian shield. Sampling and mapping by the British, US and Russians in the 1970s identified a number of areas that are anomalous in gold, copper, lead, zinc and nickel. The exploration program was supervised by Remi Bosc of Arethuse Geology Sarl who has 15 years of experience in mineral exploration in Europe, Africa and south-east Asia. Mr. Bosc was project geologist during the discovery of the Tasiast deposit in Mauritania. C. Tucker Barrie Ph.D., P. Geo., and VP Corporate Development for Mindesta, a recognized expert on mineral deposits of the Arabian/Nubian shield, provided guidance for the project. About Somaliland The Republic of Somaliland is located on the Red Sea between Djibouti to the northwest, Ethiopia to the west, and Somalia and Puntland to the east. Somaliland is a former British colony that gained its independence in 1960 and became a member of the United Nations. Somaliland merged with Somalia in an informal partnership that was never ratified by their respective parliaments, to form the greater "Somalia". Following the collapse of Somalia in 1992, Somaliland withdrew from the partnership and has reasserted its independence. Somaliland is an autonomous jurisdiction with a fully functioning parliamentary democracy. It has applied for nationhood status with the United Nations and intends to become Africa''s next new country, following South Sudan. Over the past year Mindesta conducted its mineral exploration activities in Somaliland in a safe and secure environment that is comparable to other countries in northeast Africa. About Mindesta Mindesta is a junior exploration company that trades on the OTCBB and is an SEC registrant current on all 10k and 10Q filings. The Company has approximately 9.4 million shares outstanding. C. Tucker Barrie Ph.D., P.

Nooo Comment!

By Associated Press, COLUMBUS, Ohio — A former military colonel with a Somali security force dubbed the “Gestapo of Somalia” by its critics was responsible for the torture of a human rights advocate in the 1980s, a federal judge ruled Tuesday in a decision that opens the door for a hearing on potential financial damages. Abdi Aden Magan, who lived for several years in Ohio, did not present any evidence to dispute the allegations that he directed subordinates in carrying out human rights abuses under the regime of former dictator Siad Barre, U.S. District Judge George Smith said in Columbus. Abukar Hassan Ahmed, a lawyer and human rights advocate now dividing his time between London and Mogadishu, Somalia’s capital, alleged in a 2010 lawsuit that the three months of torture he endured make it painful for him to sit and injured his bladder to the point that he is incontinent. Ahmed says the torture occurred when Magan served as investigations chief of the National Security Service of Somalia, a force dubbed the “Black SS” or the “Gestapo of Somalia” because of techniques used to gain confessions from detainees. Magan “has not come forth with any evidence demonstrating that he took steps to prevent abuses from occurring or to punish his subordinates for engaging in human rights abuses,” Smith wrote. Magan’s attorney had not seen Tuesday’s ruling and could not immediately comment. Magan declined to comment to The Associated Press when the lawsuit was first filed. He fought the allegations in court filings for a while, but he has since left the U.S. for Kenya and has not responded to additional court motions. Initially, Magan argued the lawsuit was filed in the wrong country and too long after the alleged abuse. He also said he was immune from prosecution as long as he was acting within his official capacity and on behalf of the government. The fact that Magan left the U.S. makes it uncertain whether Ahmed could ever receive financial damages, but the judge will have a hearing where Ahmed can testify about what happened to him, said Kathy Roberts, staff attorney at the San Francisco-based Center for Justice and Accountability, which brought the lawsuit. She said the case has never been about the money. “Today’s decision is important not only because it acknowledges Col. Magan’s crimes against Professor Ahmed, but it’s also important because it sheds light on the role of the security services in suppressing dissent against the Barre regime.” In August, a federal judge in Virginia ordered the former prime minister of Somalia, Mohamed Ali Samantar, to pay $21 million in compensatory and punitive damages to several members of the minority ***** clan, who said they suffered brutal repression — including torture and mass killings — under the Barre regime. ___

Gold hero Mo and his bro Olympic star's first ever joint interview with twin Hassan He's Mo brother ... Mo Farah, left, & Hassan ARTHUR EDWARDS / THE SUN OLYMPIC hero Mo Farah is larking about with identical twin brother Hassan — and the way they behave no one would think they have lived apart for 21 years. They giggle at the same jokes, prod and poke each other — and even mimic Mo’s signature Mobot pose together. Hassan slaps Mo’s shaven head while the Team GB champ teases his brother about his weight. Their bond is obvious and heartwarming but it is also slightly surprising because the twins were separated aged eight. They started life together in Mogadishu, Somalia — but in 1991 Mo was brought to England by his father to escape a brutal civil war and Hassan stayed with mum Aisha. Now, aged 29, their lives could hardly be more different. Glory ... Mo Farah with his Olympic golds Mo is a national treasure, after winning two gold medals at London 2012 in the 5,000m and the 10,000m. Hassan enjoys a far more modest life. He works as a car mechanic in the town of Hargeisa in northern Somalia, where he lives with his wife and five children. Hassan shrugs philosophically as he says business is up and down. But he soon breaks into a broad smile as Mo explains how much fun he is having hosting his brother in England. “It’s a twin thing”, says Mo, with Hassan sat beside him. “We are both big kids really, very playful. We are always laughing, it’s like we have never been apart.” While Mo has been back to Somalia a few times, this is Hassan’s first time outside Africa. At first he couldn’t speak a word of English — then he met Mo’s seven-year-old daughter Rihanna. “She’s taught him ‘fat ***, big bum bum’ because she says he’s a fat version of daddy”, Mo laughs. “Now he can’t stop saying it, he says it everywhere we go. He gets on with her because he’s a big kid himself really. “It’s great to see her take so well to her uncle, they’re like best mates already. He’s learned a few other phrases like ‘come on then’ and ‘don’t worry about it’. But his favourite is ‘fat ***, big bum bum’.” Despite the language barrier, interviewing Hassan isn’t a problem. Mo is fluent in Somali and interprets. It’s touching to watch them working as a team. Mo explains how the boys were separated. He says: “My dad had already lived in Britain and in 1991 he decided to move here to protect us from the civil war. “My brother wanted to stay — he was closer to my grandmother. We were a tight-knit family and it was a hard decision but my parents decided it was for the best.” When asked about the day they were separated, Hassan’s grin gives way to a faint frown. He says: “I only vaguely remember. All I can recall is it was night-time and Mo went off in a car. “We were very young, I remember playing together at school. We used to run around, we were energetic even back then. Raining champ ... Hassan, left, with Olympic hero Mo ARTHUR EDWARDS / THE SUN “It was always on the back of my mind that Mo was somewhere else in the world — but I just got on with life. “When I first heard from him it was a fantastic feeling, he’s my brother, that’s special. “I have a happy life at home but London is astonishing.” Hassan didn’t miss a single second of the Olympics, watching on TV back home. He says: “We all saw him win the golds. When he won the second one I nearly died of happiness.” Since arriving in the UK a week ago, Hassan has been keeping a low profile to avoid attention. He arrived at our interview in sunglasses, despite heavy London rain. Mo’s wife Tania — mum to Rihanna and their newborn twin girls Aisha and Amani — explains what happened when she got Hassan out of the house to stretch his legs. She says: “Within minutes we had people coming up to him saying, ‘Well done Mo’ and ‘Brilliant stuff’. I just told him smile and keep walking, it was funny.” She goes on: “They are so similar it’s uncanny. He’s just a chunkier version of Mo. He loves anything chocolate and is mad for Skittles. “The other day I left a big packet of chocolate biscuits out while Mo and Hassan watched some TV. They finished them in about 20 seconds flat. “The diet in Somalia is very healthy, they don’t really have sugary stuff or fast foods — but he does love to eat. “And he’s got a cheeky sense of humour. We were talking about how alike they look and I was saying I can tell them apart easily. He said, ‘You’d mix us up in bed’.” Mo adds: “I dunno what the future holds but I love having him here. The only thing is when we’re together we’re always being naughty. But it’s good seeing him — because I know what I’ll look like when I put on weight.” It never used to be so easy to tell who was who. Mo points at a scar on his right arm and says: “I was about four and I was dancing around as usual and knocked over a huge vat of oil. It was how they used to tell us apart.” As they pose on the floor our photographer Arthur Edwards asks them if they wouldn’t mind crossing their legs. “We can’t,” says Mo. “Don’t know why but neither of us can cross our legs, it’s just another one of our things.” During the Olympics Mo caused minor controversy when he appeared to deny all knowledge of his twin in Somalia. He explains: “Someone asked me about him and I just said I don’t know what they’re talking about. If I had said ‘Yes’ they would have gone crazy with questions, I would have been distracted. I just wanted to perform my best at the Olympics. Then, as soon as it was done, I spoke about Hassan. I wasn’t denying his existence — I love him.” As the interview concludes I ask Hassan one more question — which part of London he is looking forward to seeing most? To be honest, I already knew what his answer would be. “Fat ***, big bum bum”. Of course.
