I was right there one day during its construction. It is a bit far outside Xamar itself, though. I also had an unfortunate incident on that very scene, one of the few times aan nafteyda ula baqay. Some fakin fighting mooryaaans dhexdooda u galnay. What was amazing was both were hired by the university, one group protecting the building, and the other guardian staff accompanying the envoy we were with.

Waraaqdiis waxaa ku qorneyd in laga sheego codbaahiyaha [speakerka] in uu guurdoon yahay, oo gabar Soomaaliyeed raadinaayo.

Si sahlan uu iskaga yeeriye, oo kaftan ku jirto. Maxee kugu taalaa, after qudbooyinkii dhamaadeen, waa kuwaanaa gabdha Soomaaliyeed xafiiskii masaajidka waraaqo usoo gudbinaayo, oo codsanaayo ninkii Soomaaliga ahayn isnaadinaaye lambarkiisa iyo addresskiisa.

But there is one irony to all this: The unrecognised de facto state of Somaliland hosts the continent’s least expensive and most widely accessible telephone service on the continent! This fact is not limited to Waqooyi Galbeed. It is the same in the whole Soomaaliya, and it had been so since 2000.

The fitting name of that occupied region is Soomaali Galbeed. It is the common interest for all Soomaalis who reside there and not to give some clan-minded an excuse to squabble. I understand it is a petty to bicker of a name considering waxa ka dhacaayo ama Xabashadda u geysaneyso deegaankaas. However and still, I don't know why some insist and prefer a clan name -- and worse, which was given by long gone colonial -- than a Soomaali-coined one. Advocating a clan name given in that region by scheming colonials -- these same people waxba ma dhaamaan kuwa leh waan goosaneynaa because long gone Ingiriis colonial ayaa dhulkaan xukumi jiray. Again, this is not the only region given a clan name in the great scheme of divide-and-conquer strategy and game; other Soomaali regions like Bari and Jabuuti both had it; both wisely were changed later. To those who are suggesting Soomaali Galbeed being in Itoobiya, it never was. The so-called xuduud beenaad was never settled or internationalized, but being provisional to this day. That is why the so-called 'border' line is not xariijin, but continuous dhibicyo. The '77 liberation war was not a failed policy. It is an insult to all Soomaalis who perished in their halgan defending and liberating their Eebbe-given land. We Soomaalis defeated Xabashi. But we couldn't and didn't defeat a then great power like Soofiyeed, plus its Cuban, Yemeni agents, not to mention Israelis and God knows who else.

I think you should polish your online search skills. There are plenty of information about this unfortunate event out there online. Here a paragraph from the event's article on Wikipedia: "The seizure shook the Islamic world as hundreds of pilgrims present for the annual hajj were taken hostage, and hundreds of militants, security forces and hostages caught in crossfire were killed in the ensuing battles for control of the site. The siege ended two weeks after the takeover began with militants cleared from the mosque."

U.S. Senator Barack Obama, right, is dressed as a Somali Elder by Sheikh Mahmed Hassan, left, during his visit to Wajir, a rural area in northeastern Kenya, near the borders with GEDO, Somalia and Ethiopia. The area is at the epicenter of a severe drought that has hit the Horn of Africa region, after erratic and insufficient rains during the April-June season Where did you get the Gedo part from? I have posted this picture in middle of last year, and was taken by an Associated Press photographer. Here is the original quote that accompanied the picture: "U.S. Senator Barack Obama, right, is dressed as a Somali Elder by Sheikh Mahmed Hassan, left, during his visit to Wajir, a rural area in northeastern Kenya, near the borders with Somalia and Ethiopia.

Uniquely in Africa, Ethiopia was never really colonised by Europeans. Why some Westerners repeat this erroneous slip as a fact. Itoobiya was colonized [well they can call it 'occupied' or whatever]; the reality is they were colonized by Talyaanis for almost five years until they were saved by the Ingiriiska in the early days of second great war.

Sakariye hooyadiis, I do know some history of Soomaalida, which of course includes some background of their clans and how they came to known. Hase ahaatee barfasoorka -- Gaandi -- ayaa u deyneynaa in uu ka hadlo taariiqdaas. Inta aan warkiisa ka heleyno, naga war sug. Laakiinse ogoow qabaa'iladda waa weyn ee Soomaaliyeed kuligood isbaheysi iyo iskaashi ayee ku imaadeen. Kuwii diiday ama waagaas awood isku filnaansho lahaana meeshee ku dambeyeen taariiqda ayaa og, oo waa baabeen, in yar kaliya ka hartay. Qabiilo badan danta ayaa ku kaliftay inay isbaheystaan, oo haddii kale ciidda ayaa qaadi lahayd maadaama awooda qabaa'iladda dariska la ahayeen waagaas ka awood badnaa, oo isbaheysi kaliya wax loogu baxa ahaa. Magacyadood ayaaba kuu xaqiijineyso, waana magacyo Soomaalida badankood ayna ogeyn meelahee kasoo jeedaan. Qabiilo badan ayaa shirarka Soomaalida markee iskugu imaadaan, mar isku daro isbaheysii hore, marna ka baxo, oo raaco meeshee dantooda ugu jirto, waana kuwa cadeystay inay tahay kaliya isbaheysi ee isirnimo ahayn. Waa boqolaal, waana kuwa kaliya cadeystay, iskaba dhaaf kuwa kale kumanaanta ah wali aan isogeyn ama in la qarxiyo rabin.
