I am no more than human being,so i can't tell you what happens in the future,however,we can predict few things based on what history thought us. However,the war starts,I expect the Tigray troops from Ethiopia to attack the bases of the ICU around Baydhabo,Beledweyne,Galkacayo. Howver,brother,let me remind you regardless what the Tigray brings to the front,tanks,airplanes whatever it might be,I expect them to meet with humilation.The ICU will gain support from all Somali regardless of their Qabiil/political differeces and will defend one another from the harmful and unmerciful enemy of the Tigray from Ethiopia. History teaches us,that we Muslim have been victorious if we put our trust in Allah,it happened in the battle of Badr when Muslims were outnumbered and out powered,but by Allah's will Muslims were victorious,more recent we can take Afqhanistan as another prime example in helping dismantle the powerful red army,also by Allah's will. Somalia today is no different,the ICU is well armed with all sort of weapons as well,have financial backing from the Muslims around the world especially the wealthy countries of the Arab world,they have the support of the majority of the Somali people except for few Munaafiqs from different regions. I expect support and man power to come from Oromia,Western Somalis,Jabuti,From Hargeysa and Burco,Las Anod and Ceerigabo,Bari and Bosaaso,within Galkacayo and all over.The tigray regime will be conrnered from all sides,they wont know what hit them,the camel herders will terrorize them,they will have no place to hide or run.Across the border they will be waited by Western Somalis waiting to beat up further on run and humilated remainder of the Tigray troops from Ethiopia. I expect their war planes to be shot right of the sky by the legendary Zu which is at the dispense of the ICu. Their tanks which mostly consist of Russian made T74 will be the target practice of the RPGs and "Jeep". Determination and momentum is with the Somali xaq udirirka ah,war is about moral,the Ethiopian troops luck this,fear is stored in their hearts,they will surrender in cowardness. The few Somalis that are in support of the Tigray will defact as soon as they see themselves fighting along side an evil whom is targeting to kill other Somalis,Somali people have that tender to unite against one enemy when threaten,although they later become the enemies of one another..for now that can wait. Bottomline,this xaq vs. Dulmi,the Xaq will prevail as it always has,regardless of the effort that goes into it. Insha Allah, Victory to Xaq ku dirirka.

For me in order to have a good healthy discussion with you must get off this qabiil horse.since when was Puntland an enemy of mind,you are terribly mistaking,PL was born yesterday,they were never my enemies.Offcourse the clan that I belong to and the clan that resides in PL have fought wars,but nothing more than what happens inbetween other somali as well,so once again,it would be alot helpful if you clearify your accusation of PL being my "enemy". As for Tuur,Igal,Riyale,these are politicians just like your uncle,however unlike you I dont' support or advance their idealogy and corrupt personal interests as you do with Col.Abdullah Yusuf,I just don't.I dont' think you have ever seen me glorifying Riyale Kahin have you? So let us not make false accusations here..so get away from this qabiil mentality and deal with men in form of discussin without bringing your clan this and that into the fold. Just because, the men you mentioned belonged into the same qabiil doesnt' mean I supported them nor support them now,so get your facts straight. The fact that you are trying to mislead the audience by telling them that the ICU is composed of one Qabiil is utterly wrong,they are from all tribes and families of Somalis alike,it's your choice if you want to mislead yourself,but the truth is the truth. Once again,this is about Xaq vs. Dulmi,choose your side,I have chosen mind.

^Abdullahi Yusuf' guards killed many residents of Baydhabo,but they are disregarded as dameer bakhtiyey..what good are you talking about?

^I am sorry,are you talking to me dear,your love for Red never ends huh? I have chosen Islamic way of life over the so call Somalinimo,you are the opposite,nor am I worshiper of something that you worship national pride(idol).

^like I have been in can accident or my aunt died...man that is sad isn't it? lol

Originally posted by Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar: Unlike you, I don't call Soomaaliya an "idea." Unlike you, I don't disregard Soomaaliya and Soomalinimo if your qabyaalad way don't work. Unlike you, I don't entertain secession for qabiil-based lands because the stooge of Sanaawi couldn't lead a country. Unlike you, I wouldn't cheer Amxaar/Tigreey isku sheeg meeshaan ku jiro that "I agree with you/Nice points" kuma dhahaaye, when this same Tigreey/Amxaar isku sheeg wants to dismember your very own nation. Oh, then again, that very nation isn't a nation of yours at all, since you call it an "idea," not a reality. Unlike you, Soomaaliya is a real country to me. Never have a doubt in it and would never call my nation, state and country an "idea." Never. Unlike you, I do know my real enemies. I, on my life, know Sanaawi cares not that who is who in Soomaali or whose qabiil one belongs or other pity daily squables meeshaan lagu haayo, but wants to more Soomaali lands and to destroy Soomaalinimo, as his mentor Xeyle Salaase believed. His vision, Mengista's and Xeyle Salaase's all visions waxba iska dhaamaan: To destroy Soomaalinimo and Soomaaliya one reer and tuulo at a time. Unlike you, I don't "hate" clans collectively to score a qabyaalad comeback. I see what I see wrong and criticize, not what clans one belongs. I criticize Indhamadoowe, not because of his clan, but because of his occupation politicies. I don't see the picture where C/qaasin enters. I don't believe "hebel baa yiri." I believe wax aan indhaheey ku arko. Unlike you, I don't use other occupied lands and people [as you do with Shabeellada Hoose] as a score against the occupier because the occupier is against the Sanaawi stooge you support, but when another occupier [kii Kismaayo laga ceyriye] is in the same room with the Sanaawi stooge, no problem, because he is with "us." Unlike you, I do know cadaalad. Unlike you, also, I don't support or defend dagaal-ooge iyo qabqable, call them Xaabsade or Saransoor or Indhamadoowe or Cabdillaahi Yuusuf Axmed or Qanyare or Suudi Yalaxoow. Unlike you, everyone knows Cabdillaahi Yuusuf is the ultimate ridiculous stooge of Sanaawi, a shameless dalkiisa usoo horseeday Amxaaro/Tigreey waliba isla quman. Unlike you, my Soomaalinimo waa igu dheertahay, will never cheer for a Amxaar/Tigreey. Neither offline nor online. Never. You are great Somali and May God bless you MMA.

Duke,it must very irritating to blind yourself from the truth. It's not about Somalis vs.Somalis today,but rather it's about invasion of Dulmi(Ethiopia) into a land that isn't theirs.We Somalis can deal with our short comings,but What is so disturbing about all this the fact that Col.Abdullahi Yusuf has invited Ethiopian soldiers to move about on Somali soil,and still you defend that by bringing "clan courts" this and that,occupation of Lower shabeele,buddy your whole freaking country is under occupation,so wake up to the bells of reality. If you are okay with having Ethiopian troops patrol the streets of Galkacayo and Baydhabo,then please hand over your ID,we'll be happy to label you as one of them..things would be alot easier then. "Somli friend" who the heck is Nagash,if you are refering Nagash as king Najashi of ardul Xabashi,then you should know our prophet peace and blessing be upon dedicated a prayer for him on his death from all the way in Saudi Arabia..and you know the Prophet is one that is so dear to me. King Nagashi was great Muslim and I have the utmost respect for my fellow Muslim,so chew on that "freind". As for Muslims having no borders,I think I fail to mention that Muslims include those from Ethiopia,Eritrea,Kenya,as well,not just Muslims from the middle east or Pakistan,so once again Muslims have no borders,Somalia is muslim land,and they will defend it as it is.

Mr.Faysal Cali Waraabe made threats against Las Anod city of Sool,therefore,my comments were regarding since this wasnt' hate speech as our brother Garaad Canood puts it ,but rather a threat,which I commented on by saying,that Faysal Cali Warabe hasn't gotten the authority to declare war,therefore his comments are nonexistant. As you know Soo maal,no Muslim should justify the fact that one threatens other Muslims in order to create fear in their hearts,for that I appose and dismiss his comments,because as a Muslim I know it's not right to threaten someone, and Las Anod of all people,because I could argue Burco and Las Anod are two homes in the same neighborhood resided by inaabtiyo and members of the same families,which makes it even strange. As for Garaad Caanood,dear brother don't be sensitive,try to calm yourself and understand the man who has made the comments has no authority to declare war on Las Anod,therefore you shouldn't make it big deal of something that is going to happen. I don't know where you have been hiding,threates like this are made everyday on all corners. Follow your own advice and don't take this personal.

Muslim brotherhood has no borders.They "foreigners" and us have something in common which is very important commonality,and that is our faith,Islam.However,what do Yey and his co have in common with Melez,other than offcourse being dabo dhilif gaalo?

Originally posted by Suldaanka: Awoowe, I would suggest you to change plans. Head for Berbera. Berbera is hot and humid especially for someone who grew up in Hargeysa.However, Shiekh is the perfect place,to top of it,it's only 1 hour drive from Berbera,so I could spend the day at Batalale beach and be home at Shiekh by afternoon time..that is what is good about the place.So no to Berbera and yes to Shiekh...but maybe we could have some folks move from Hargeysa and live in Berbera since everyone is packed up in Hargeysa,that way the heavy concentration of people could be lifted from the shoulders of the city. Janna,those are not gangsters, they are hip hop/gangsta wannabes,but they do indeed need to be desciplined.

Originally posted by Suldaanka: quote: Suldaanka,before you and everyone else here even started talking about Sheikh,I was into Shiekh.I have already decided that if I ever wanted a place to live and raise a family,it would be sheikh rather than raise my family in bigger cities such as Hargeysa(my hometown) and Burco,or the hot and humid Berbera. Red, there are places that need to be preserved for the future generations to enjoy. Shiekh is one of them. You might not believe it but Hargeisa itself was once a green lushful valley full of edible trees such Gob, Rumaan, Madheedh etc. Many people who remember those good old days are still alive. How disappointing is it that today you will hardly come across a tree outside the city? Awoowe, I would suggest you to change plans. Head for Berbera. walaale ileen nin aan socdaalin ayaad ahayed!

hello nomads, As you are all aware,the situation in the middle east is worsening as we speak.The stable and economically wealthy countries in the middle east are out of the discussion however,I am speaking of the trouble nation such as Palestine,Iraq,Lebenon. In Palestine,the Isrealis continuo to devaste the Palestinian population in that country,although there was recent ceasefire between Palestinian freedom fighters and the Isreali military,one can expect that to resume as it always has been in the past. there is also fear of renew civil war in Lebenon,much like the 15 year civil war after the grandson of lebenonese christian was killed.Many say another civil along religious groups could erupt again. In Iraq,the violence is ever increasing,the months of Oct/Nov. have been the deadliest since the Iraqi invasion by the U.S.Sunni militias have killed more than 200 shii'a and retaliation is expected.The situation in Iraq as it stands is spining out of control,but it doesn't show sign to ever coming to halt as armed struggle along ethnic Iraqis takes place. what is your input on this nomads, thanks.

^well,I watched it,but I wasn't suprised at all,you shouldn't be. it was full of bias reporting,at the start they "warned" the people that the documentary wasn't intended to offend the "peace loving" muslims,but directed towards the radical Islam. However,throughout the show,they showed Islamic students reading the Quran,and labeled them as future radicals,in my opinion that was way off the mark,but again,I expected nothing but more of that kind especially from Fox news Channel.

Assalamu calaykum my dear Nomads, Have you ever wondered why most of Somali couples's relationship doesn't last? have you witnessed many single mothers who are in possession of few kids,lonely and desperately looking for someone to settle with.Have you heard the stories of compliants of so many Somali men who were married at least once before hand? if you have,why do you think,these terrible things have befallen on them after high expectations to begin with? well in my opinion there are few factors as to why most of Somali married couple's relationship doesn't last. First of all,the sole purpose of marriage is one to have children to increase the numbers of the Muslim Umah,thus it's blessed to have children.Another purpose of marriage is for one to protect him/herself from commiting wrongful deeds such as sex outside marriage aka adultery,in fact marriage is 50% of ones' faith,last but not least,marriage is supposed to help the individual to travel the road of life rather easier than lonely traveler.It makes all most all aspects of life much easier for those who are married. To keep your marriage strong and avoid seperation,you should try to do some of the points below,I think in my opinion this are one of the main area that Somali couples luck in their lives which is the key factor as to why we have such high divorce rate in our community. 1.spend time with your family(be family man).You may go out with your friends at times,but you must put aside a time to spend with your wife and kids,set up family night out (Friday night) is good night to spend the night out. ^Key area where most Somali women complain about their husbands. 2.Try to put a system together which you will try to solve if problems within the family structure ever surface(since we are humans,we have disagreements and hard days,however how to settle them is where we differ). 3.Dont lie to your wife/husband,don't make excuses when you do something wrongful,admit it,try to not repeat it again.Build a trust between you and your partner in life. 4.try to have fun,spice up you love life.Since you are couple who are maried in the correct fashion,it's permissable for you to try new things everynight.this is also very key area,that one needs to take lessons... sure be romantic,give your partner flowers,gift cards,occasional suprises.The Prophet peace be upon him use to shower with Aisha(his wife) at times,so shower together at times,lit candles,scatter roses all over the bed as well,do something fun together inside the master bedroom,essentially the little things count and will lead your partner to have positive feeling about you,this could be interpret as love too...basically spice it up little bid by trying new things here and then. That is what I would suggest for now,if you have more to add,please entertain us with it. thanks,

^Jim,I have already gave him that compliment,he has been the teacher for some time now..also jacburis is something he is good at.lol Cara,what loving mom wouldnt' name her daughter 'Luuq'knowing that her young daughter can possibility be picked up by Red..and you know Red is as good as they come. I am not full of myself,for those of you who think I am need to calm down,because it's supposed to be a joke..

sure it isn't.How was your trip there?

^sorry I have nothing to add up(don't have enough time to spare)I came to encourage you whatever that you are doing..I think you are up to something good here,whatever it's keep it up walaal.

^aa Luuqay,bal luuqa wax yar kaalay war yar ayaan kuu hayaa eeh. inanka waqooyi: kalmado=erayo,use that one(I think you know,laakin way kuu goysay wax yar)

^well,I think if I am not mistaking,you post news from other sites only when discussing general topics,but mostly when it's about the ICU and TFG,you post primarily the news from Puntland regarding ICu and TFG,as expected they glorify Ethiopia and their fellow kinsman,yey..which is okay with me,,

^iiraaxayso adna nooh(sidii reer xamarku odhan jireen).

^At least they are Somalis,so we can come back to that if it's true,but what do you say about Abduallahi Yusuf lab dancing to the the Ethios,will you cheer on for that?

^wow,that says alot,especially coming from concerned brother.

^no insults.My input you will lose badly(you I mean,the Ethiopians and their dabo dhilif).
