Gen. Duke Sxb wax cusub la kaalay. Ciyaalasuuqa aad caabudid ceebtiisa hadii la bilaabo la dhameyn kari maaye. Iska daa kuwa kale eed hayb wadaaga tihiin.

^^LOL Indeed ninkaasi waa khatar waaye.

^^LOL Iska jir Fidelow, Awoowe Baashi dadkii ajaanibka ahaa ayaa ka magan galiwaaye, yaanu daalac kuu raacin. Word of advice ---------- XoogSade Funny how the man who was shunning clanism just then degenerated into being one now. Sxb, for start I do not believe that the status-quo will remain as it is. I believe that sooner or later things will have to change. I also believe that SL and Somalia issue will be settled peacefully in a legal and internationally recognised process. But hadii ay Somalia giniiginii iyo gunuugunuu keento, then sxb there are ways to handle such giniiginii and gunuugunuu, and one of them is through the barrel of the gun. Coming back to your overt assertion that the clans that you have in mind all united in their opposition to SL, sxb sorry to tell you but you are wrong. There are good number of people including prominent politicians from those clans that you have in mind that openly support SL. My friend, this is not the first of such issue in this world in fact there were hundreds of similar ones of which the current Kosovo and South Sudan are just few that I can mention. The case of Kosovo - which is a current case - is very similar to SL's case, but unlike SL's case the Serbs in Kosovo are all united in their opposition to Kosovo's independence. Although, their views are respected, yet no one is curving out the Serb inhabited portions of Kosovo out of Kosovo's territory. Instead there are other provisions that are being used to satisfy their concerns. SL is no different, its territory is not up for question, since territories are not defined by clan/ethnic lines as you are insisting instead by recognised International Law. Good Castro, God forbid but if that is where it comes down to then awalba Afrikaan ayaanu iska ahayne, let the chip fall where it may. On a side note, why doesn't Somaliland (who seems to have understood the whole democratic process) provide consulting and guidance to the TFG? Does Somaliland have an honorary delegation at the TFG coming out party in Baydhaba? A Mogadishu based government that has the support of its people and does not lay bogus claims on SL soil, definitely we would like to establish a strong ties with such a government. But I don't see a government like that any time soon. Old man Baashi Awoowe Baashow as of late, you are reminding me of that funny BBC-Somali actor Mr. Qar-iska tuur. I don't know what but I think you have a lot in common with that funny character. Awoowe, I don't know why you want to run around while you are blindfolded, you surely know you will fall flat on your face and in the process break some old rips. Isku daranidaa Qar iska tuurow? Awoowe, are you talking about the Somalia that Mr. Kofi Anan described it as "a black hole of anarchy" where mafia like gangs and warlords call the shots? Awoowe sorry to wake you up but that country ceased to exist long ago. Ninka Dawladdisii Duhur geed ka seexdee Dibjirtee Habeenkii Bahaladuu durduurteen Markuu daydaygeedii Ka dul dhacay raqdeedii Runta magan is diidsi Indhahana dib ula noqay Oo ruuxdeedi doon doon Dad kaleeto weydii... Hadraawi Awoowe, I am sure you are looking for its "ruux", but you are asking the wrong people.

Mr. Xoogsade, why I am not surprised at all. Inaad waxba isla haynin waa iska ogaa. You have only brought forth some old tired and overly defeated argument. You inquired of whether there were people within Somaliland borders that do not necessarily believe in Somaliland. Sxb, with all due respect, tell me a single country on this "Magnificent Earth" (refer to your location) who are in agreement 100% of everything?? I personally do not know if such country ever existed or will ever exist. Somaliland is no different. WIthin Somaliland people have differences of opinions. There are those who believe that Somaliland should have an Islamic government, there are those who believe that Somaliland should be run in the old "Shir Beeleed" system, there are people who think Somaliland should move away and strengthen its democratic system... and of course there are those who think Somaliland should be ditched altogther and do not believe in Somaliland. In a nut shell, that is how diverse the opinions of the Somaliland people are. The most important thing, however, is that the clear majority of the Somaliland people do indeed support Somaliland and its independence. And when I say "Majority" I am not talking about a certain region or clans, but in fact I am talking about the sum of all of those people who believe in Somaliland regardless of region or clan. Without dividing people into clanism, if you put all the people who do not believe in Somaliland from any region and town, they will still be a minority within Somaliland. In all of the cases that were similar to Somaliland, cases like Eritrea, East Timor etc or the current cases like South Sudan, Kosovo, and Western Sahara, there are those minority who believe contrary to what the majority believes in each respective region. But the main thing is that the world knows that a small minority can not highjack the will, the wishes of the majority. The same goes for Somaliland's minority regardless of clan. Lastly, are you aware that if you insist on this secession and the rest of Somalis decide they don't want any war on this issue, Dhulka in taako taako loo cabbiri doono? Oo aa keli laga yaabo inaa noqotaan hadhoow? Cause the Brittish is not the colonial power anymore, his version of somali history is dead, and surely the brittish can't say anything about what goes on in Somalia. Their say about Somalia is as dead as Churchill. I really did not understand as to what you meant by when you said "Lastly, are you aware that if you insist on this secession and the rest of Somalis decide they don't want any war on this issue, Dhulka in taako taako loo cabbiri doono? Oo aa keli laga yaabo inaa noqotaan hadhoow? Care to expand more? Sxb, all of African countries were at one time or another under foriegn rule. All the borders you see there are of the product of such legacy. Somaliland was the first Somali region to gain its independence from foreign rule. It was recognised at that time by all of the perminent members of the security council along with all former British subjects who currently come under the banner of Commonwealth. Somaliland then became the first african country to try and change the borders by uniting with another country who was under another foriegn rule. That union sadly did not work for many obvious reasons. Hence, Somaliland decision to restore and reinstate its soveriegnty. As for you talking war, I don't think Somaliland in aad ku khuukhin kartid hanjabaad iyo digdig been ah. Sxb, Somaliland dhiig ayaa lagu keenay ee hadiyadd iyo mushraxad laguma keenin. Raggi u dhintay ee naftoodi u hurey, raggii ay dhaleen ayaa maanta u diyaar ah inay ayaguna u dhintaan.

Bes halkaa ha inoogu joogto Nayruusow... waad isku daadatay wallee... Nuune, Kanshanre and others ... sorry. Waa ka baxay.

Sxb wakhti kuuma hayee maca salaama for now.

And in fact, the saga that was played out in Jowhar recently, is clear writing on the wall for the likes of you. If you can read it. As for Somaliland - this is like a building. We built it from bottom - put in place a strong foundation, erected the walls and installed the framework for holding the corrugated steel sheets. What is left now is nailing the nails home on the steelsheets.

WARAYSI GAARA OO UNIVERSAL TV LA YEESHAY GUDOOMIYAHA BARLAMAANKA SOMALILAND Gudoomiyaha Barlamanka Somaliland (BSL) Mudane Ciro ayaa waraysi uu la yeeshay Tvga madexa banana ee Universal ee afka Somaliga ku baxa ayaa lagu waydiiyey Gudoomiya BSL suaalo badan oo dhinacyo badan taabanaya.

Gudoomiyaha oo la waydiiyey bal in uu ku yimid casuumad rasmi ah iyo in kale, ayuu sheegay in uu casuumad ka helay golaha barlamenka ee Welshka kaas oo loo fureyye dhisme cusub oo loogu talo galay. Waxaa uu ka hadlay in uu la kulmay gudoomiye ku xigeenka golaha odayaasha ee Britian sidoo kale uu arkay wasiir ka mida golaha xukumada ee Ingiriiska, waxaa kale oo uu ay is arkeen xubno xildhibaana ah oo ka kala socda labada gole, waxayna si foolka foola ula kulmay Raisal wasaaraha Pakistaan. Waxaa kale oo uu sheegay in ay balan sanyihiin Xafiiska arimaha dibada ee dawlada Britian. Waxyaalaha ay ka wada hadlaan Gudoomiyaha Barlamenka iyo balan qaadyadii uu ka helay Sarakiisha dawlada Ingriiska waxaa ugu wayn sidii ay u kabi lahayeen barlamenka una siin lahayeen awood uu ku hawl galo.

Waxaa kale Gudoomiyaha la waydiiyey waxaa Somaliland u xayirto madexbanaanida saxafada, waxaanu u sheegay in saxafada Somaliland ay tahay mid madexbanaan balse taa aan madexbanaanay ay tahay ta Somalia waayo buu yidhi tikniko ayaa lagu ilaaliyaa, hadii ay cid wax ka sheegan habeenkii baa la afduuba, waa la dilaa, balse Somaliland saxafadeedu intaas bay wax ka sheegayaan madexweynaha maalin walba sida ay doonaan bay u sawir gacmeed ugu sameeyaan, intuu aad u qoslay buu yidhi xitaa Ilkihiisay intaa wax ka shegayaan, marka Somaliland waxa leedahay saxafad madexbanaan taas oo inta dhimana aanu filayno in laga qaado xayiraada. Waxaaa la waydiiyey shaqaaaqada ka taagan laascanood iyo sida gobolkaasi aanu Somaliland uga mid ahayn iyo waxa ay tahay aragtida xukumada Somaliland, Gudoomiyuhuu waxaa ku jawaabay in ay Somaliland ka hano qaaday gobolkasta oo ka tirsan Somaliland balse aduunka meelkastaba ay ka jirto muran iyo is qabqabsi waxaanu tusaale u soo qaatay dalka Ingiriska oo isba ay xurgufi in mudo ah soo jirtay ka aloosan tahay sida Waqooyiga Ireland waxaanu muujiyey niyo wanaag in ay iska dhamaan doonto madaamooy Somaliland yihiin.

Well, I think the House of Guurti is mostly mistaken as being a house for clanleaders. That is not true. Members of the House of Guurti are everyday men, and include Doctors, Educators, Poets, Mediators, Lawyers, Sheekhs, Elders etc... or anyone that is wellknown within his community for his qualities as a community leader and is respected by other communities aswell for being a selfless person, charitable, peacemaker etc. The House of Guurti is a constitutional house made up of 82 members, who are chosen on merit and character aboveallelse. On the other hands, you have the House of Suldaans, this includes clanleaders like Suldaans, Boqors, Garaads, Caqils, Ugaas etc... The House of Suldaans is recognised non-consitutional house, that supports other organs of government when the need arises.

Ok guys, my bad, I forgot all about that old hag called Jamac Ghalib... But the point that was made still stands. SOO MAAL Sxb, listen, in 1960s it was your politicians that were against the Union. In fact it was Ali Garaad who bravely stood infront of the then Somaliland parliament and claimed "Umul ayaa la afartan bixiyaa, aynu Somaliland afartan bixino"... he was chazed down the streets of Hargeisa for calling that. The majority, wanted a union, the majority got its way. Today it is no different. Its the leftovers of Afweyne's regime like you, that are against Somaliland's independence. But just like 1960s, the majority will once again have its way, and there is NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT. Therefore sxb, waxba ha is xiijin.

Ileyn Tanina Yaablehe; Tuug waa Isaqariyaa Halka uu ka Xado Timir; Tuhunbuu ka Guuraa Tobaadkani Ayuubow; Mid Tiriig sitaa yimi Some people never sieze to stop recycling the same old tired points, which have been time and again easily defeated. Thesedays, however, the same indivituals want to create a new sort of revision of history. They are preaching that "Somaliland" was part of Somalia, prior to the colonisers and Somaliland was rightly a region that belongs to Somalia. When the facts are that the only relationship there ever was between Somaliland and Somalia was the ilfated "union" which came about not by being invaded and annexed by Somalia, rather it came about because of the free will of the Somaliland people. The same people who freely also decided to restore their independence, on their own. Miskiin, They announced independence out of the blue and every somali was shocked. Sometimes though, when you read or listen to people from the north who are pro-secession, you get the impression their plan preceded any civil war and government abuse Well, yes, the feeling of being cheated and dominated started from the word get go, when Somaliland and its government was given just one minister in the first government of 1960s. A mere minister, and not an important one at that, it was the minister of education. The Presient became a southerner, the primeminister became a southerner, the parliamentary speaker was a southerner, all the ministers became southerners with the exception of the Eucation Ministery which was given to the former Prime Minister of Somaliland, Mr. Egal. We made a compromise, but the feeling of being cheated and wronged was there. In 1961, the Somaliland parliamterians tried to make changes to a new constitution solely developed and put together by southerners without any input from those who came from Hargeisa. This again agitated and opened a wound. In that same year, young Somaliland army officials tried in a failed cupe to overthrow the southern regime from Hargeisa and Burao and Berbera. The people who were at that time very naive and still believed the resonating calls from the likes of Suldan Timocade, reluctantly refused instead opted wanted to give more time to the Southerners to come to their senses and provide justice instead of trying to exploit the Northerners and their intoxication in the fake dream of Somaliweynism. Anyways, things changed a little in the late 1960s and early 1970s. But what astonished most Somalilanders was Djibouti's refusal to join the Greater Somalia bandwagon. That was an eye openner, particularly because Somalilanders contributed both hiil-iyo-hoo to the Djibouti's quest for independence. I am not here to mention that on the eve of Djibouti's independence, more than 100,000 thousand Somalilanders crossed the border into Djibouti and voted for their independence. There were lots of poetic poem-chains exchanged between Djibouti poets and Somaliland poets among them is that famous "Sii-leey" which started in the early 1970. Anyways, with Djibouti refusing, and things getting worse, Somaliland worse nightmares becoming a reality when Afweyne and his "leeches" started raping and robbing everything... and everything just kept on going from bad to worse for Northerners... and the eventual attempted ethnic cleansing took place in 1988.. Somalilanders yar iyo wayn knew that it was time to just say good bye... You have to understand that the union between Somaliland and Somalia was never between Hargiesa and Mogadishu alone, it was in the hope that the other 3 regions will also join. That hope never materialised. Hence, Hargeisa wants to reverse the union, since the whole plan failed. If a "union" of any sort is a "Kiss of Death", then Somaliland is guilty as chargedt, but a "union" is not a kiss of death. People unite, companies unite, countries unite, and if all these unions do not work according to desatisfaction of either partner, then any union is bound to Breakup/dissolve. The case between Somaliland and Somalia is a case of "union" that failed, and one of the partners of that "union" just doesn't want anything to do with it anymore. There is just noway there is ever be another union if one of the two is not willing. Some people here are arguing that the "Act of Union" of 1960 is still valid, but they forgot that there was never a proper Act of Union, anyway!! It never passed the parliament hence never became official. Besides, the Afwayne dictatorial regime which came to power in 1969 also nullifies everything since it aboloshed the 1960s constitution. Moreover, the country that existed between 1960-1991 completely became a "failed state" hence failed union. And Somaliland was never part of any new agreement to revive that union, whether its between the warring factions of today's Somalia or in the future. So in essense, in every part of the word "failure", the union failed, and one of the partners is not willing to reinstitute it. Besides, if there is anything left over from that union, its the Somaliland republic which enjoys credibility in the eyes of the world. And in fact as an academic wrote "the closest thing to a viable central government of Somalia is found in Somaliland" (source), hence the surviving partner from the union assumes responsibility to either dissolve or continue the union. In this case, we dissolved it. But it gives me headaches as to how someone would talk about of saving a "Union" when his own region/city is divided up into patchworks of competing/warring factions. A priority seriously misplaced or what? If you guys had the same passionate hate that you have for Somaliland for the warlords and the crminal entreprises that have reckhavoc in your neck of the woods istead of each defending his "favourite warlord" you might have gotten somewhere. But you are wasting such energy where you don't have anything of say in it. What a pitty!! Final word, I would like to tell kuwa Somaliland u dardaarwarinaaya ee leh "Waa la idinla xisaabtamayaa", or "Ma go'i kartaa" etc... these people need to know that Somaliland hadiyad kumay iman. Yes, Somaliland was not recieved on a silver-platter. And please stop sounding like Ali Mahdi in his BBC interview of early 1991. And finally, Somaliland diid ama doon / like it or hate it, this CARAVAN SHALL MOVE ON. ps for those who want to refer Somaliland as to being a mere region akin to Mudug or Hiiraan, which wants to secede from its mother country, I ask them not to waste their time. You know, folks, it surprises me why a certain one-dimensional issue supporters always come to one another's side to support or cheerlead. What did you expect?

^^Awoowe, wixii aad maqashoba ma runbaa? I only hear from media from a certain clan. I never heard it from anybody else. I have no facts to either support or deny.

ADDIS ABABA, March 1 (Xinhuanet) -- A suspected case of the deadly bird flu has been found on a poultry farm in southern Ethiopia, officials said Wednesday. They said Ethiopian vets have found flu-like symptoms in 49 chickens from the farm, adding that more tests are needed to confirm what type of virus killed the fowls. The farm is located at Endibir, some 200 km southwest of the capital Addis Ababa. The area is part of the South Ethiopia People's State. Mulugeta Debalkew, head of Information and Public Relations Bureau with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, told journalists that samples, taken from over 6,000 chickens that had died in the past two weeks at the farm, will be sent to an Italian lab for further testing in the next 48 hours. Meanwhile, Selashi Zewde, head of the ministry's Veterinary Department, said some 9,000 chickens at the suspected farm will be killed starting this week. Selashi said the government were taking measures to prevent the disease from spreading, adding that the measures included a ban on the sale of the poultry and poultry products within a 60-km radius of the farm. UN experts have warned East African Rift Valley countries of Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania are at high risk for outbreaks because millions of migratory birds fly south to warmer climes during the European winter. They believe rural communities around the lakes of the Rift Valley region in East Africa, which rely heavily on poultry farming to survive, could be hardest hit. Enditem
