  1. XILDHIBAAN MUUSE SUUDI: “Kursiga Madaxweynaha iyo Kan Guddoomiyaha Baarlmaanka la iskuma heysto, kan la isku heysto waa midka Ra’iisal Wasaaraha oo ay Dad leeyihiin” Talaado, Oktoobar 16, 2007 - Xildhibaan Muuse Suudi Yalaxow oo maanta ka hadlayay fadhi uu Baydhabo ku yeeshay Baarlamaanka Soomaaliya ayaa wuxuu sheegay in mar kasta dood laga keeno kursiga Ra’iisal Wasaaraha Soomaaliya oo ka mid ah Kuraasta madaxda sare ee Dowladda oo sida uu yiri lagu soo qeybsaday Afar Beelood iyo Bar (4.5). Xildhibaan Muuse Suudi Yalaxow ayaa markii intaas yiri waxaa ku buuqay Xildhibaano badan oo ka tirsan Baarlamaanka Soomaaliya, kuwaasi oo dabcan ka soo horjeeday hadalkiisa, hayeeshee waxaa uu Muuse Suudi ku adkeystay hadalkiisaas, wuxuuna hoosta ka xariiqay in uusan aqoonin waxa mar kasta doodda geliya kursiga Ra’iisal Wasaaraha. Sidoo kalena waxaa kulankii maanta hadal kulul ka jeediyay Xildhibaan Maxamed Qanyare Afrax oo sheegay in ay wax aan sharci ku fadhin ahayd soo jeedin ka timid 22 wasiir oo ka tirsan 31-ka Wasiir ee Xukuumadda Federaalka Soomaaliya, kuwaasi oo uu shirkooda ku tilmaamay mid fowdo ah. “Kulan ay qabtaan Xubno Wasiirro ah oo uusan shir guddoomineynin Ra’iisal Wasaare Geeddi waxaa uu la mid yahay kulan ay qabteen Dalxa iyo Boqorre (Guddoomiye ku xigeennada Baarlamaanka) iyadoo uu joogo Guddoomiyaha Baarlamaanka Shiikh Aadan Madoobe, kaasi sharci ma ahan ee waa mid fowdo ah, marka Wasiirrada haddii ay mooshin soo gudbinayaan ha u tagaano Ra’iisal Wasaarahooda, kadibna intey is-casilaan iyagoo Xildhibaano caadiya ah ha soo gudbiyaano mooshinka ay doonayaan”ayuu yiri Xildhibaan Maxamed Qanyare Afrax. Xildhibaannada Baarlamaanka Soomaaliya ayaa maanta fadhi ay ku yeesheen magaalada Baydhabo waxay kaga hadlayeen sida ay la tahay in Xukuumadda Ra’iisal Wasaare Geeddi codka kalsoonida loo qaado iyo in uu Baarlamaanka sii wato howlihii la xisaabtanka Xukuumadda, iyadoo ay xusid mudan tahay in ay fadhigii maanta ka xaadireen 217 mudane oo ay ka mid ahaayeen Ra’iisal Wasaare Geeddi iyo Guddoomiyaha Baarlamaanka Shiikh Aadan Madoobe. Tixraac -------------- Yaab. Adduunkii gadaal gadaal u shaqeynaayo. Qabqabliyaashii ugu magacxumaa, ugu weynaa shaley ayaa maanta sharciga difaacaayo, oo Axdiga la dejiye difaacaayo u taagan. And they have a point, regardless waxee ahaan jireen ha ahaadaanee.

You will never hear, it seems, dadka meelahaas ka imaado oo leh "I don't know." Even banooniga iyo ciyaarihii markii toban gool loogu raayo -- and they mostly used to lose -- always excuse ayee sheegi jireen. Roob baa da'aayo, ma anaga roob ayaa ku ciyaarnaa. Ama garoonka cooska baa ku badnaa, anaga jaay baan ku ciyaarnaa. Bless Reer Mudug. Even magaca ayaa ka cabso ah, oo wax ku mudaayo.
  3. I know C/llaahi Taano, oo hadda degan Iimaaraadka or aan ku ogaa. Is he related to that man?
  4. You are giving too much power to these little Xabashi sycophant men. Cabdillaahi Yuusuf, the senior stooge, did not like Geedi, the junior lackey, from day one. He was parachuted in and imposed by his master. The senior stooge couldn't do a shuud then, neither can he do a shuud if their master in Adisababa does not give a green light. All this hoopla and little noise is nothing.
  5. Bilaal, dadaalkaaga Eebba hakuu garabgalo. Your positive views of Soomaalinimo in this dark, historically low era of Soomaalinimo -- Soomaalis one day will appreciate, heck salute and honour you by building a taalo, for men like you. You and your daljecelnimo thoughts are worth more than a thousand qabyaalad-induced, clanish Soomaalis. It is easy to be a pessimistic in Soomaali affairs in this hardening, trying times. Keep the positive spirit and hope of Soomaalinimo up. Always. To the xabaalaha.

  7. Booqo sclub19.com sclub19.com They have the most collected Soomaali songs on MP3. Some of them, you have to know the little trick of how to get. Also deeyoo.com. Then there is somaliuk.com There are other sites, but those sites need some tricks here and there to retrieve the songs and see the original MP3 source. PS - Adigoo raali ahna magaca waa Soomaali, not "somalian."
  8. The 'Ndrangheta mafia along with the corrupt CEO of the named company(and many yet to be named) will be pursued and held accountable for their actions, once we get a legitimate, viable Somali government. Before we take on the mighty maafiya, we need to eradicate the men among us Soomaali nala sheeganaayo: the likes of Cali Mahdi Max'ed and Cabdullaahi Yuusuf Axmed, who for a few hundred thousand dollars practically sold off the future of Soomaaliya and Soomaalis. It was them who collaborated what is a dire future threat that threatens the very existence of Soomaalis. The Talyaani journalist, Ilaria Alpi, was investigating on this corrupt deal between the warlords and the maafiya during the UNISOM deployment. She was on the verge of exposing this when they murdered her and her cameraman in Muqdisho in 1994.
  9. Somaliland's leaders detest Yusuf, a former warlord who invaded their capital Hargeisa in the late 1990s, and have refused to join his government -- now mired in a persistent insurgency and political split that has paralysed it. Whoa, whoa, Reuters.
  10. If some Soomaalis had this hatred they have for their mutually perceived clan enemies, if this energetic loathing they have for one another were saved for the the proper enemy -- the Xabashi occupying their own supposedly capital city and massacring, raping and uprooting Soomaali citizens in the process -- Soomaali saan kuma dhaceen. Kuwii ka badbaaday Xabashi's wrath, iyagii ayaaba iscunaayo today. Kuwii la islahaa deegaanadooda ladnaana oo Xabashadii ka fakaday ayaa saan isku dhameynaayo. Eebboow ummadeena u gargaar.

  13. I think you have missed the satire, though mostly doted with factual events, in this piece. Again, you also mistaken the overall grand scheme Xabashi leadership are planning currently. The Soomaali "unity" Xabashi want is about, it seems, a necessity for the current leadership in Adisababa, not the failed Xeyle Salaase, which you alluded. Though they have a dilemma which scheme they would like to opt: a dismembered Soomaaliya or a unital one with a puppet, weak clan-based pseudo-states, each controlled from Adisababa. To them, it is a better to have a weak, unrecognized Waqooyi than have it have a full international recongition. Thus that is why, in private, waxa ay ku maaweeliyaan Riyaale and his separatist followers, that Xabashi are on their side and lobbying for a recongition. Why buy the cow when you can milk it free, as the aphorism goes. You don't have to underestimate what Xabashi are doing in our fragmented country. They are now even trying to open an "embassy" in Bari, which we can guess to be another espionage agent post. Xaalka meeshaas ayuu maroyaa, ee muran macno weyn ku fadhinin looma joogo about some long-ago protectorate and whatnot. The author completely got his main points together -- which is what matters after all -- for what bigger Xabashi outline is all about, though it was presented as a satiric article.

  16. It is unfortunate, the slow declining of historical Baardheere town. Now, its heart, the buundo that linked the two parts of the town as well as the wider region of Gedo, NFD and Jubbooyinka is broken.

  18. [ The literature you are about to read is divided in four parts. Its contents are based on facts and fictions. The players are the stakeholders of Somali politics and blights: Ethiopia, warlords, fadhikudirir, ICU and the rest of the world. ] Cabdiqaadir Aaden Jangeli Oktoobar 13, 2007 Who spoiled Ethiopian Dreams? Part II After a week Minister Zirrow and his advisors met again in his private, red, sound proof room attached to his executive office in Addis. They needed to wrap up last week’s agenda regarding Somalia’s destiny. Zirrow : I spoke with a dozen head of states and I explained how Somalia is important to our region. I emphasized how we, Ethiopians, care about Somalia and how we would never accept a divided Somalia. Therefore, I accentuated that Somaliland not be recognized as an independent state. I reminded them that Somaliland’s desire can influence a lot of people in Africa. It can lead to a very dangerous precedent, and it is not in the interest of our region, or Africa as whole, to have nations continue to split. Girgis : Mr. Minister, did they buy it? Did any one of them raise their eyebrows and question your sincerity for Somalia’s unity? Zirrow : Girgis, you need diplomatic training. Heads of state do not argue or go into detail about their concerns, especially if you are a regional power like us, or a global power like the USA. In case of a misunderstanding, they do a follow up to see how the matter is resolved. The main leaders I was interested in were Mr. Ghelle and Mr. Moi. We know Mr. Ghelle’s position and there is no need to put pressure on him about Somali unity. Although, he has only been in office for 7 or 8 months, I believe he will follow in his uncle’s footsteps for supporting Somali unity. We have different goals, but we are taking the same route. As for Moi, I think we should all be clear that no Kenyan leader would oppose an Ethiopian leader’s agenda, especially when dealing with Somali affairs. I gave him a signal about our intention, because I want him to be part of our program. My worry is, he is getting old and he will not be able to keep such important information secret, but I’ll try to coach him about Somalia’s issues when we attend regional or International conferences. I also pointed out to those head of states, that it would not be fair to ask or compel Somaliland to attend any of Somalia’s reconciliation conferences. Somaliland is unlike Southern Somalia, it is a peaceful place that is flourishing in every aspect, so there is no reason for them to deal with the warring factions in the south. Asfaum : Yes, Mr. Minister it sounds good. But, did you contact Mr. Blaise Compaore? Girgis : Who is Compaore? Asfaum : He is the president of Burkina Faso and the current chairman of the Organization of African Unity. Zirrow : Why should I contact him? He should contact me; the Organization of African Unity is Ethiopia and Ethiopia is the OAU…Capisci….Just think about why the world affairs is run by the USA. Girgis : Because the United Nations headquarters is in New York. Zirrow : And...? Girgis : And OAU Headquarters is in Addis Ababa; therefore all African affairs should be run by the way we want them to run! Zirrow : Bravo Girgis, what else do these two cities have in common? Girgis : Both have Mercato … Italian mercato Tessafa : No, both are full of incompetent diplomats! Zirrow : Wrong, their names have the same meaning... New Flower. Barhanu : Well, Mr. Minister, thank you for your report. It is very encouraging! Also Tessafa and I contacted most Somalis who we believe can play a role in helping us reach our goal, but we did not contact Mr. Egal. We left him for you Mr. Minister. He is a heavy weight, and as you know he is a shroud politician. He can easily figure out our intentions... Girgis : Ah! Is Mr. Egal different from other Somalis? Barhanu : YES!! Girgis : How? I thought they were all the same! Asfaum : Brother Girgis, please save your breath. Not all Somalis are as predictable as you think. You will be amazed to know that many of them are proud of their national-hood; especially those who fought for Somali freedom and independence decades before you were born, like Aden Abdulle Osman, Abdirazak Haji Hussein, and Mohamed Ibrahim Egal. Girgis : Sorry, Tassefa told me they all have a clannish mentality and as long as we support their kin, they will forget about their subsistent state. Tassefa : Kahkahkahkah... Yes, I explained to you how clans are more important than their nation, or even their religion, but you have to take the qualities of each leader into consideration. Girgis : Yes, yes, Tassefa you are right. But let’s get back to business. Mr. Minister, are you going to talk to Mr. Egal? Zirrow : About what? NO! I am not talking to him. He has never directly requested that Ethiopia recognize Somaliland, so why should I open that door. Let it be in that limbo state. Anyhow, most observers see him as a national figure and they say he has not yet given up on Somalia. Right now, we need to focus on men who we know are on our side. Girgis : So let us discuss the criteria for these “good” guys? Barhanu : Yes, if the Minister allows me, I would like to lay out the most important traits for the gentlemen we want running Somali affairs for the decades to come, until it ceases as a nation. Zirrow : Berhanu please continue. Barhanu : Well, these men: Must have ambition to rule. Must be merciless. And they must be truly loyal to us. These three characteristics are key, but there are a couple of other elements that we need to consider for the selection, like past performances in the civil war, and clan compassion. Zirrow : Very good. I believe together we will make history, one that has not been achieved in this century. We must be confident, firm, and uncompromising in our goals, so help us God. Tassefa : Before you close the meeting I would like to share some intelligence coming from Hargeysa regarding Mr. Egal’s call for Somali reconciliation. He is planning to meet some prominent southern politicians to explore hosting a national conference in Hargeysa. Burhanu : That is not a good sign Mr. Minister. If we let Somalis have a conference, without our input, it may end up as successful as the one in Borama. They can easily reach some sort of agreement and understanding, which could lead to a functioning central government. Zirrow : Mr. Tessafa, will you please contact all the warlords, especially the diehard ones, and warn them about the danger glowing from Hargeysa. ------------- Historical Facts : In September 1999, while President Mohamed Ibrahim Egal was exploring the possibility of national conference in Hargeysa, President Ismail Omar Ghelle attended for the first time the UN conference as President of Djibouti. In his speech, Mr. Ghelle, suggested to the UN General Assembly that a conference should be held to plan for the rebuilding of Somalia. Unlike, previous conferences he wanted to give a chance to the civil society: Diaspora, elders, intellectuals, business communities etc. Mr. Ghelle informed his plan to colleagues and members of OAU, EGAD, Arab League, Islamic Conference, EU and so forth and requested support for rebuilding Somalia. He decided not to wait until the regional and international colleagues responded to his appeal; instead he called citizens of Djibouti to host a national conference for Somali reconciliation. Hundreds of Djiboutian families vacated their homes to accommodate the conference attendees. With zero or little help from outside, Mr. Ghelle succeeded to open the conference in Arta in May of 2000 to over 2,000 attendees. Another Meeting Called Again Mr. Zirrow and his advisors met in their usual meeting room for a quick briefing and to also find out the progress of the Arta conference. Zirrow : Please give a round of applause to Tessafa for the good job he did about the Arta conference. Girgis : What did he do? Zirrow : I was telling the whole world that we are supporting Ghelle’s initiative for Somali reconciliation, while Tassefa was revealing the opposite to our good guys. He called them to boycott Ghelle’s conference. Girgis : Wow... so Mr. Minister are you telling us that Tassefa’s word was heard better than yours? Tessafa : Hey...hey... Girgis stop joking around! Can’t you decipher the Minister’s expressions? Burhanu : Mr. Minister, how about Arabs? Are they supporting Arta’s process? Girgis : Who cares! Have you ever seen a problem that an Arab has solved?! Assfaum : Yes, Algebra...kahkhakahkahkah. But seriously speaking, we cannot forget that Somalia and Djibouti are members of the Arab League!!! Girigis : So what? If the Arabs care about Somalia they would have helped to solve their crises a long time ago. The Arabs are incapable of solving even a small issue, like lifting the ban on Somali livestock, which is crucial for their economy. Zirrow : Well said Girgis! Sometimes your bluntness amazes me… People don’t like the naked truth, but after all it is the truth. This meeting is adjourned. Remember that in the next meetings we will be devising a strategy to destroy any outcome of the Arta conference. ----------- [The players: First Minister Zirrow of Xabashi state, with his top trusted advisers: Berhanu, Wolde, Tassefa, Asfaum and Girgis.

  20. Gaalo madoow can be any gaal that is "madoow." Since the ereyga 'gaal' has the same roots and meaning with geel and was referred, by Soomaalida, to Oromadda, who have had plenty of geel/gaal in those days. Or probably Oromo called themselves gaalo then, but some disapprove and dislike this word now since some groups use it as a derogatory word. It is a pre-Islaamic term, applied to any shisheeye Soomaalida encountered. In those eras, the most furthest shisheeye Soomaalis had encountered were Oromadda and Oromadda were called gaala, as some still call them. When the Soomaalis embraced diinta Islaamka, they have kept the term, giving a new twist -- non-believers of Islaamka. When the caddaankii colonials arrived at our land, the term, yet again, acquired a new meaning. It mostly and almost solely became associated with those white colonial non-believers and infidels, particularly with those with Masiixi beliefs. Then Soomaalis further encountered other Africans claiming to be followers of Masiixi as well. Soomaalis now didn't know what to call them since gaal as an adjective has solely became a one associated with caddaanka. Marka hence the new term gaalo madoow, siiba madoowga Kenya degan, sida Kiikuuyada. What is interesting is that Soomaalida had never applied or called this term to Xabashadda; however, then again, like Soomaalida themselves, some Soomaalis do not consider Xabashadda as a "black" group as other Africans, though they are still Xabashi. That is why Soomaalida say markee arkaan Afrikaan kale "madoowgaas fiiri/war madoowgaan muxuu rabaa," though practically themselves ayaa ka madowsan. In the flawed Soomaali terminology, 'madoow' does not only refer to how one's skin appears to be, but the overall physical differences of one's ethnicity, since Tamils of Sri Lanka too are as madoow as some Soomaalis, but you never witness a Soomaali calling them madoow.
