Wiilka yar miyaa madax ii noqon kara, anoo soo halgamay 50 sano. The old man wants to lead Somalia but unfortunately instead of supporting Sharif for the sake of the country, he wants to derial the TFG chance of becoming effective.

Xukuumada oo daba socotay dhawaaq ka soo baxay Wasiirka arrimaha dibadda maamulka Muqdisho Maxamed Cabdillaahi Oomaar oo sheegay in Somaliland diyaar u tahay wada hadal la gasho Maamulka Koonfureed, sugaysana inta uu maamulkaasi cagahiisa isku taagayo. This shows the successionist have no confidence in their desire to dismemeber Somalia. How in the world can you avoid talking to the Somali governnment marka ay caga dhigato as the FM Oomsr suggested. I think the FM of Somalia knows the thinking of ruling cabal in SL.

Mintid says...How I feel about Puntland is irrelevant to the equation Really, and so much energy wasted for nothing?

Good move and shows Farol's grasp of int'l determination to stop piracy. It is in the interest of Puntland and Somalia to cooperate in stopping this criminality. What will be better though is to have the Puntland and TFG to work together in fighing this problem.

The cartoon is funny and it accurately depicts the reality of Somalia today, where the President is not save in the capital. The President, though, news new PR team to keep some of these pictures off the somali tabliods.

http://www.usatoday. com/news/world/2009- 04-13-somalia-pirate s_N.htm This is the time to push for an all out support for the government of Somalia and Puntland to take control of their sea and land. Can something good come out of this piracy problem that makes the world take notice. What do you think?

They had it coming, I knew they were dead men walking. What a sad story but they were prepared for death or glory. Let other know the same faith awaits them.

Good that at least they are working together (Faroole and Cade}for a very important project for all Somalis.

It seems that the new TFG has appointed good people to key positions which will make it's success much easier. Like appointing a minister of justice someone who knows about justice based on Quran and Sunnah.

Dismemberment is the act of cutting, tearing, pulling, wrenching or otherwise removing and to do that to your own country is the most shameful act of perfidy.

I agree with Somalipride, leave our President alone ducana ugu dara. I heard a joke about American and Russians climbing a pole. The Americans helo each other to climb the pole until all of them are successful. The Russians on the other hand bring down everyone who attempts to climb the pole until all of them fail.

The pictures and the people are beautiful, I like the sofa under the acacia tree. Add to it, the farmers show casing their know how. Priceless.

Indeed a positive development, nevertheless it is a difficult task to accomplish in two years amd requires wisdom and deep knowledge of Islamic Figh (jurisprudence). If the new TFG can bring security in the south in 2 years, then it will have the mandate to run for office and get elected and then they will have the legitmacy to tackle all outstanding issues.

Allaha u naxariisto, gacanka xaqdaran baa dishay. The man was doing his patriotic duty and that makes him shahiid if that was the motive for the killing and puts the killers in the hell fire.

The General run an excellent compaign and came up short this time but he occupies a very important position of the government working to reform it from within. Africa do you agree with your seccession wacko slanding the good General?

magnoon with Egyptian accent(or is it majnuun)

Ilka Jiir is planning to use piracy ransom money against Somaliland, and send terrorists to carry out bombing and killing in major Somaliland cities during the election. His style of attack is identical to that of Al-Qaeda terror organization, and intelligence reports say that Al-Qaeda trained his gang members in southern Somalia on assembling bombs and other explosives. The reports asserted direct relation between Al-Qaeda “Puntland” leadership, to act against Western interests in the region. USA and EU sponsored the expenses of Somaliland Presidential Election, in an attempt to promote democracy in Somaliland, and to respect the desire of the people of Somaliland to adopt democracy during this difficult time. In Somaliland, the decision belongs to the public through the ballots of election. . This says it all, insulting a favorite son of Sanaag and tying him to al-qaa'ida means the seccessionts are more desperate and confused. The one who posted this is even worse.

No fighting, just politicing. We know the perils of extending terms, it is very dangerous.

Actually the Guurti can extend the President's term. So legally Riyaale can still remain in power. But why should Kulmiye accept this delay again? They should make as much noise to insure that they delay will be final and be no more than few months otherwise, they will loose credibility with their supporters.

What if Nuune jahawareerka siyaasadda naga joojiyo oo meel loogu soo hadaago. On serious note, shabaab and their leaders have no joice but to join the new TFG and work within the system otherwise, the caravan will keep moving and they would have missed a golden opportunity to be constructive.

Obama will say "dameer an fuushanahay mexay dhusadiisu iga dhibaysa".

This is the time to lay the groud work for long term peace and stability and rid the nation of the curse of blind loyalty ti clan. With peace everone is a winner and the nation will prosper. Will Shabaab come to their senses and work within the current system to affect change or will they continue their mindless violence that serves no tangible purpose.

Sharif and Finanace is like the fox guarding the hen house.

If only Somalis could master this peaceful cyber bickering, we would not be in this mess.
