It's normal that Afgadud was greatly welcomed in Bosaaso. Neither is he vietnamese nor Maleeshiyo Beeleed but one the leading commanders of the legitimate Somali government's army.

I think Mido is a big headed arrogant player but hey thats how you survive and make name for yourself in the Premiership or British media, when you see the likes of Mourinho getting interviews to predict matches 3 times a day and gives 3 different predictions of one match... and later when he loses comes back and says it wasn't our fault, it's the refereee

^Take it easy with the Fat boy

Historic indeed, thank you Duke for the report. Mugadishu is getting back to its old glory days, Masha'allah beautiful pictures and full of foreign diplomats.

“The right to freedom of religion and the right to blaspheme religions go together,” it wrote. Pathetic attempt, What a double standard the west is displaying, there should be the right to attack Muslim and blaspheme their religion but to doubt or question about a historical event, the holocoust, would be a gross crime, a historian David Irvine had to be criminal and serve years in prison for uttering words. WoooW, so it alright to draw and depecit our prophet PPUH in the worst form ever... but the holocaut, the 50 years ago event is big NO NO NO...

Originally posted by Red Sea: He got 25 yrs in prison.

Is this the usual American law or just an exegerated case? Im puzzled!

Jujow Sxb I may agree with you on some points and strongly emphasise on the need for peaceful solution with opposition group in Asmara, but I doubt the individuals in Asmara that you praise are any clever, remember these individuals you talk about have had a golden opportunity once and again to tame the country but lost it, now they isolate themselves even more by sitting behind a christian orthodox rogue state leader while claiming to be the Mullah's of Somalia. As for the Ethiopian, I agree with you completely that they have to depart very soon, but on the other side the TFG should be given enough time to be sufficiently strong to handle all the security matters. Then if the Ethiopian troops stay on after that, count me on your side against the TFG, I agree we cannot recognize the TFG if it remains to be as it is, indefinately... You may ask for required time, Im not sure I ain't strategist in these sort of things but cosidering the time left for the TFG rule 6 months to 1 year is good enough... Juje there you go I made myself clear sxb, now am I talking sense at all?

Somalia: Top UN Envoy Congratulates Citizens on Conclusion of Reconciliation Debate UN News Service (New York) 30 August 2007 Posted to the web 30 August 2007 The top United Nations envoy to Somalia today lauded the success of the national reconciliation summit, which ended today, but cautioned that much work remains to foster better internal relations in the war-ravaged country. "For me, today's ceremony is of particular significance," the Secretary-General's Special Envoy for Somalia François Lonsény Fall told participants at the National Reconciliation Congress in the capital Mogadishu. "It heralds the successful conclusion of a Somali-driven and owned reconciliation process within the country." He warned that while the end of the Congress "marks yet another milestone in the quest for peace and reconciliation process in Somalia, it does not however signify the end of the reconciliation process" as the East African nation must overcome many hurdles, including engaging all opposition groups in a dialogue. "Dealing with these challenges will require political will, commitment and perseverance by all parties concerned, as well as concerted international assistance and support by Somalia's friends and development partners," he said. The envoy, who led a delegation of the International Advisory Committee (IAC), recommended that the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) receive support to extend its authority and bolster respect for human rights throughout Somalia, which has had no functioning government since Muhammad Siad Barre's regime was toppled in 1991. He called for the strengthening of AMISOM, the African Union-led mission in Somalia, which he said is a "prerequisite for improving stability and for providing the space for the political process, including the dialogue between the TFG and the opposition groups, to move forward." Regarding terrorism, Mr. Fall said it is crucial to decouple the issue from that of settling the Somali political crisis to allow the reconciliation process to move forward. "The best way to fight terrorism in this country is to pursue open dialogue and genuine reconciliation among all parties in Somalia," he said. The reconciliation congress kicked off on 14 July but was followed by a series of deadly attacks targeting locations where the conference, which was suspended for several days, took place. The attacks have wounded and killed innocent bystanders, including children, and prompted scores of others to flee. Hostilities in the country flared up last year, culminating in the expulsion from Mogadishu in December of Islamist groups by the TFG, backed by Ethiopian troops. According to UN figures, 340,000 people, or roughly one-third of Mogadishu's population, have fled the city because of ongoing hostilities since February. Source: allAfrica.com

^Oodwayne easy there, every Somali clan was there, and the people that live in Somaliland are Somalis, they delegates may have never been there in the conference as representatives of Maamulka Somaliland but by being their clan.

Briliant summary Originally posted by The Duke: It was in this land mark meeting that this clan regained for themselves their due rights. This meeting aired and dealt with many issues but the most important has to be the forgiveness, the return of property, the equality of all clans and citizens of the state and the fact that all the clan agreed that security is the sole responsibility of the state True, true, that 4.5 share deal and the term "others" was a despicable fairytale engineered in Tuulada Arta, Thank god is over.

^LOL at Asmara, Jujow Sxb runti you are funny, what do you expect from Asmara? Honestly go on and contribute. As always you rely on hearsay and rumours, I will take you serious when you bring something tangible and not so "Waxa layiri Sheikh Dahir Aways baa qabsan doona Muqdisho Ramadaanka" The Shir has ended with great acheivement in a happy and peaceful mood. What was done in that conference was more than good enough at this moment in time, the senstive issues allowed to be discussed in it was historic, depates from previous greivances to power sharing... Marka bal maxaad kaloo rabtay in Odayaal dhaqameedyada ay soo saaraan... Juje What would have called a success had that happened? Did you expected the delagates of this Shir and traditional leaders to pass laws, or may be disarm the looters? Thier part is done and the rest is for the TFG to care of...
