Just for the record this is Dr Imaam Abu Baker the supposed leader of Hizbul islam before Dhair aweis landed in somalia from Eritrea. Imaam abu baker is reported to be at heads with Dhair aweis over the control of Hizbul Islam forces.

Emperor too bad if reality is too much for you to swallow, lol.

This is totally amusing, proves that these men are only fighting for power and high position. Imaan Abu Baker now wants equal control of Hizbul Islam fighters from Dhair Aweys. However Dhair Aweys denies the reports and says that he will cement any conflict of interest between him and imaam abu baker.

Its now official.

Rebels should hve no sanctuary anywhere in somalia. They hve already stretched themselves and we need to spread them out further by attacking their hideouts from all directions.

Because of President Sheikh Shariff atleast no one can ever say that the rebels were never given a chance for peace talks. But it is them who hve refsued and it is they who attacked the government by foolsihly thinking that they could topple the government. Looks like the rebels are awakening to reality and as the government begins to moblise a large mass of somali troops to restore order in somalia and drive out the foreign terrorist. Who wish to use our country as a large terrorist base.

New bullet proof uniforms, food supplies, medical supplies and vehicles are already being unloaded in Mogadishio port habour. The government has not even gained full strength and it already controls 14 of the 16 districts of the capital

Al-shabaab spokesman was yesterday telling the whole somali media that there are more al-shabaab militias in Mog than any other part of the country. Yet they are still losing ground to somali Government forces.

Probably sick because reality has caught up with him

Most of the rebel fighters are young under aged kids. Even many of the al-shabaab hardline fighters do not know what they are fighting for and are becoming war weary by just killing innocent civilians. The facts are there, i guess its hard for few people to understand as to why al-shabaab are now losing.

Originally posted by Hassan6734: Ask yourself as to what happened to the al-shabaab talk of overthrowing the Government? They hve used their full force and nothing has happened. Infact the Government is re-asserting its authority and disbanding under aged kids who were brain washed by al-shabaab old men to throw mortars at residential area's thereby killing families while they slept at night. Al-shabaab hve an arab agenda not a somali agenda and that is a fact.

Daandurreey the fact is that the Government controls 14 out of the 16 distracts in Mogadishio. Thats much more than what yeey or the previous weak Government controlled. This time all by just 100% somali troops

The money primarly goes towards security in dealing with the rebels. You hve to accept that the money is being spent well considering the beating the rebels are getting. By the way the economy of Banadir alone is much bigger than somaliland and puntland both combined, and this is in war time alone.

wacdaraha_aduunka you can cry as much as you want but these are the facts on the ground.

Good news, the Government is proving itself and more importantly asserting its authority.

wacdaraha its the rebels who hve refused peace talks. Its the rebels who are waging their own brand of Jihad against sufi somali nomads and turning peaceful villagers into warzones. Its the rebels who are intent on turning somalia into some sort of international terrorist playground. Where ethiopian troops could be again given the green light to invade somalia and US missiles could be sent to somalia. Why must somalia be dragged into the heart of the war on terror because of the rebels who are controlled by arab terrorist. Since when did arabs care abt us somalis other than only use our country to hurt the united states and the west. Somalia always first not arab agenda.

Hadan district in the Somali capital is now under Governmnet control as under aged ragtag rebel bandits are overwhelmed. Al-shabaab spokesman has so far refused to give any interviews to the somali media abt the huge loses the rebels hve suffered. He only stated that he will make a press report sometime tomorrow evening, as he believes that al-shabaab are regain the distracts that they lost.

Its 2 million hard dollar currency per month, more than what any of you would earn in a lifetime let alone in month.

Yaqshid is fully and completely under the control of somali Government troops. Al-shabaab spokesman has himself confirmed that they hve lost control of 2 districts of xamar and Yaqshid police station.

Thats a staggering achievement in just three months by the national Islamic unity Government.

That's more than both what somaliland and puntland admins earn in a whole year.
