It cannot sign any deal that involves natural resource deals. That is a pure central government shaqo, xataa so-called federal haddee jirto. Meelahee ka wada jiraan federalka -- walaa Nigeria, Mareykanka ama Kanada -- always federal government ku shaqo leh waxaas. So-called maamul goboleed shaqadaas shaqo u taala ma'aha. Until then ismaaweeli about digging oils with non-existent and unregistered companies with shadow backgrounds and whatnot.

Puntland gains control of its own resources and gets its share of the pie from Mogadishu So in other words, according to you, sheekada waxaa waaye miyaa waxeyga aniga bas cunaayo, taada laakiin waa kula cunaa, waa kula qeybsanaa. What is mine is mine, but what is yours is ours. Intee laga ciyaaraa ciyaartaan?

Kanaaba ka wada fiican, I think qof Ingiriis ah sameeye. Soomaaliya waa dalka kaliya la magacaabay in the map that I can see.

Waa tan full qariirad, Jacfar. Istaqfurlaahi meesha magaca Rabigeena ku qoran.

FreshPrince, you already know it -- that this site is moderated and no foul language whatsoever is tolerated. Baliis, again respect the site's memebers and its Rules. That was uncalled for. You also had a warning before. No explicit qabiil names is allowed either.

What can a older woman not offer that a younger woman can except for child bearing? Are you serious with this su'aal? Dadka casrigaan ku nool can perhaps understand this su'aal, but ask that to a nomad in some miyi. Haddii lagu dhihinba ma 'guumeys' baa la barbardhigeysaa mid yaroo dheylo ah.

Did you read the list? See if it fits.

How do you know if one is a true neo-qabyaaladist. What are the tell-tale signs? If one finds himself behaving what is listed below, he is close to being a real qabiilist or even spiral towards to a hardcore neo-qabyaaladist. Qabiilist and qabyaaladist are not really dissimilar, but there are some core differences, foremost one being an extremist into qabiil, hates certain clans and its members, regardless of age, gender and location. To a neo-qabyaaladist, that 'enemy,' they are almost certainly are bad, bad, bad and should not be associated with them whatsoever. While, on the other hand, qabiilist one is a bit tolerant other Soomaalis, perhaps only trying to defend his clan when it is being insulted, but might not even insult back the clan of the offender. Neo-qabyaaladist will not only insult back, but meesha dhan dhiig miiran iyo wax walba ayuu jib jibinaayaa if his clan is slighted the tiniest. And if online, he will troll day in and out as though his life's existence depended on it. Tell-tale signs of neo-qabyaaladist: He is loud talker, says whatever occurs in his mind. He would not hold his tongue, and 'shame' does not exist in his vocabulary. He would violently feel violated if another clan member, especially an 'enemy' clan member, claims his perceived ancestor's land where he believes his forefathers settled from when time was invented. So he would lash back. He would even feel very agitated if someone suggested other clan members live, albeit minority, in that perceived tuulo of 'his' people. He feverishly loves qabyaalad talk. It is his daily 'fix.' Unknown to himself, he is addicted to it, though would deny in a second if being told. He workships his clan, especially his sub-sub-subclan. There is no bad apples in his clan, just only those who are defending themselves, protecting themselves, keeping safe their lands. Even if they raid other clan people's lands and steal camels, they are still defending themselves because, to a hardcore neo-qabyaaladist, that raided clan once killed some two hundred years ago a fellow man from his clan. If this logic can't be found, then it is preemptive -- his clan people are attacking before they are being attacked, whether it will be tomorrow or ten years down the road doesn't matter. His logic always is correct. He, along with his clan members. is always right. His version is the truth and nothing else matters. He is a psychopath. He gleefully enjoys the misfortunes, natural or not, of some certain 'enemy' clans. If online, he searches and searches countless times to see any bad news from some certain 'enemy' clan lands. His happiness would depend how bad the news he finds is. The worse the news from the 'enemy' clan, the better he would feel. He woould always have the last word, especially heated arguments about this tuulo-is-mine,-no-it-is-mine. He likes to compare the dusty towns and villages his clan members settle against others, especially if other towns are settled by 'enemy' clans. He would boast his dusty clan village has a well, one dusty road, one room 'hospital.' As long as he thinks it is better than the 'enemy' clan village. He would search online to reinforce his opinion, even using zoomed Google satellite images. If he hadn't at least insulted a certain 'enemy' clan or a member from that clan, his day isn't completed. To him, Soomaalinimo is a foreign concept, unity outside his clan is unheard of and any gathering by all Soomaalis is weird to him. First true allegiance is his sub-sub-subclan, second his sub-subclan and third his clan. After that, all become foreign concepts. He is the first to be at any clan meetings. And would talk loudly to recite the achievements of his clan in their little dusty towns and villages, whether it was a hundred years ago or yesterday. To him, it is always great, they are wonderful. He has a mental list of 'enemy' clans, updated hourly, daily or weekly depending whatever is happening in his dusty clan village. He most likely lives somewhere in the West. You can add more.

Afrika in uu saas u sawiro ma ahayn laakiin.

at 'define against.' The dude stumbles.

Laakinse alxamdullulah baryahaan saas ee yeelaan. Burcad, argagixiso, clannist have created their own flags. P.S. The int used country names Eritre a , Ethiopi a , Itali a and Somali a all ending with an a come from the Italian synthax. So not Somali comes from italian but the international and for somali's nationally used names come from the Italian synthax. Unless you come with proof, assume that pasta and Somali+a both are Italian. P.P.S. England, Somaliland, Swaziland come the Britisch synthax. Where Ardul Somal comes from the Arabic. Synthax. Waxaan iyadoo full ah mar hore laga dooday countless times on here, and I am not going to that road mar kale. I once posted an article that was published in the year of 1860 and it had the word "Somalia" in it. Loooooooooong before gumeysidoon Talyaani soo caga dhigan dhulkeena. Also it is Soomaaliya, "Somalia" anaga iskuma naqaano. In Soomaaliya, it is a Cushitic spelling, same way as Oromada spell their land Oromiya. Ma kastay? Afka Soomaaliga doesn't blindly follow that rule of 'ia' ending. For example, Sacuudiya (Saudia) in Afsoomaali, it is Sacuudiga and not Sacuudiya. Also Carabiya (Arabia), in Afsoomaali it is Carabiga. In another example is Turkey, in Afsoomaali it is Turkiga and not Turkiya. So if Afsoomaaliga blindly followed that Latinized rules, it would've heen Sacuudiya and Arabiya. But Afka Soomaaliga is Cushitic and we have our own rules. Marka Soomaaliya waa indigenous and nothing do with Latin, which Talyaaniga is an offspring language. Here, the very word "Somalia" is mentioned in 1853! Talyaanigaa sheegeysid intuu joogaa.

Naa hooy Samsameey, Sabaax nuureey tinta qof kuu shanleeyo maa rabtaana, Samsameey.

Che, waxaan iska dhaafee ma joogtay mise wey ku dhaaftay?

Haween nin dhali karaa dhaqi kara. Ever heard this? Anyway, where did you get the idea that the brides are younger than the grooms in the picture.

Islii waaka soo noqday intaa ku guban kasoo fakaday laakiin waa loo noqonaa Rabi ha idmo. Waxaa igu daran habeen koo taksiile ah oo Soomaali ah Australia amaanteeda nagu dilay. My cousin and his family from Denmark ayaa Jomo Kenyatta kasoo qaadeynay. Marka yarkaan taksiilaha waxaa keenay another taksiile maadaama we needed two taxis. The other one reerka yaqaanay, but we didn't know this. But anyway, asaga taksigiisa soo raacnay some of us. Wuxuu i weydiiye intee ka timid. Toronto iri. Meel ma'aha meeshaas kulahaa, Australia ugu fiican Soomaalida ka imaado kulahaa. Taas rayigaaga waaye iri, or perhaps kuwa ka imaaday ayaa experience u leedahay but you hadn't seen kuwa meelaha kale ka imaaday. I was kinda right: I later learned his brothers Australia degan and they bought for him the taxi he was driving. Ma anaa garan! He was just secretly praising his brothers. What a guy...

Ciyoowba waa laga shaleynoyaa, I guess.

That is one of the main reasons Down Under ku nacay. I hate being in an airline longer than nine hours in any given time. That is torture to me, ka badan haddaa saarnaado waaba isnacaa. My poor niece ayaa bishii hore Indonesia aaday from here Toronto. Poor her. Jabbaan iyo Hong Kong sii mareysay, one of them nonstop flight to Hong Kong. That was 26 hours oo diyaarado la saarnaado. Waxaas yaaka bixi karo bisinka. Laakiin mar walba Islii tago Reer Australia badan kusoo arkaa. This year xataa Reer New Zealand waa soo arkay meesha joogaan.

What type of cars were prominent back then; American or European/Asian? I know the late dictator was a collector of luxury cars but did any of the musicians drive anything fancy? I'm tempted to invoke artistic license and just drop a Bentley or a Cadillac on Al-Uruba's parking lot. Somalia did afterall have Cadillac designed armoured vehicles, why not civilian designs? at Cadillac. Most common cars on the streets of Xamar back then was produced by a Talyaani company, Fiat. There were Fiat trucks, Fiat trailers, Fiat compact ones and Fiat minis. But there were also other cars, most notably Volkswagen Beetle, aka Fakis, a lot of Toyota Cressida, Toyota Corollas, Land Rovers and in late '80s, Range Rovers and Toyota Landcruisers. There were also other European-made cars like the German Mercedes and BMWs, the French Citroen. The eldest brother in the family drove one, Citroen, in early to mid '80s. I loved how it automatically lowered to ground by a push of a button. I have yet to see another car that can lower to the ground to this day, only buses or other public transports have that. It looked like this:

To them, perhaps, magaca Soomaaliya itself is a stolen one too. Haa, Talyaaniga ayaa noo bixiye as qaarkood iska dhaadhacsiiyaan. Afka Soomaaligana waala soo deensaday asagana, Oromada iska leh, waa see beri aamini doonaan. Sheekada saas ku socotaa nooh. Carafaad, yaa kaa heysto calanka. It is no doubt among the top three or five most beautiful flags in the world, and the world has some 200 flags. There was an expert who posted online his opinion a few years ago, I think calanka Soomaaliya was second top most beautiful flag according to him.

Os, war ninkii la waaye. Ii waran xaaji. Ma dhulkiiyaa jirtay? Soomaaliya, is it a habitual nature stating the facts 24/7 days a week here on SOL? Waala ogyahay perhaps it is more than that.

I seriously want to understand you folks. Runtii, I am serious. What do you get if, say, your SOL 'enemy' admits that your qabiil owns, populates, occupies, whatever, on whatever land you wish so here in SOL. Would anything still change? Would that dusty village be any different? Maxaa ka dheefee, waa kaas Yurub ayaa ka joogtaa.

It was built by Talyaaniga and used by their expatriates in prewar. It had nothing to do with Soomaalida.

Dad waa weyn, Eebbaa weynee, habeen iyo maalin shaqadooda ka dhigtay this little dusty outback buulo/hut is better than yours, is populated by by my fellow clan members, yada yada yada.
