What "denial denial" aa sheegeysiin? Soomaalida waa 20 million biibol, scattered around every corner of this Earth. Of course, unfortunate events or misfortunate people like those brothers are expected. Maxaa ka faa'ideynaa airing their dirty laundry ka ahayn xan iyo wax kale. If it was you or your very brothers, instead of other Soomaalis, you same people, who knows, would have sung another different tunes. Cali Soomaali, I understand meeshaa ka socotid, laakiin ii sheeg maxaa ka dheefeynaa showing some of our misfortunate brothers, who obviously need help, saldhigyo ku jiro. Even if the their information and pictures are public, anaga Soomaali ahaanteena waa inaa isku asturnaa. It is part of diinta and culture in la isku astura. People change, oo soo toobad keeno, soo hanuuno. No body wants his dirty kastuumo banaanka la keeno, even if gaalada soo bandhigaan, we should better than gaalada iyo dhaqankooda. We don't even know whether they really committed the crimes they were allegedly convicted of. A lot of innocent people ayaa ku jiro saldhigyada Mareykanka.

This unrelated article was on today's GTA front page as well. ------------- Somali neighbours pitch in for Thanksgiving dinner The aroma of Somali chicken and rice mixed in nicely with the traditional community Thanksgiving fare of turkey, vegetables, mashed potatoes and gravy at the Nelson Mandela Park Public School gym in Regent Park. It was the contribution of Fatima Hussein, Hawa Ali and a group of Somali mothers for members of the Salvation Army's 614 Regent Park church, who nearly didn't have their traditional Thanksgiving dinner yesterday after a fire ripped through their building on River St. early last week The kitchen where the meal is normally cooked was destroyed, along with the Sally's Ann's cafeteria, the result of a faulty wire attached to a coffee machine. [sNIP] "I'm a Muslim, they're Christian, it doesn't matter," said Hawa Ali, 45, the mother of three children aged 12, 18 and 21. What the Somali moms said they were giving thanks for yesterday was a special relationship that has blossomed since last October. That's when the Sally Ann gave them a space and snacks every Saturday afternoon for an after-hours math and English tutoring program to help young Somali-Canadian boys. Hussein and Ali, who work as cleaners, were instrumental in setting up the program, which is taught by Abdul Karim, a York University student. They see it as a way to help keep their children on the straight and narrow. "This is not a religion thing," added Fatima Hussein, 44, the mother of seven children aged 3 to 23. "When we need help, they help us and now we help them," said Hussein as her 14-year-old son Abdi helped buy, prepare and serve the food.

Salaan iyo soon wanaagsan. Ogeysiis. Since it is getting increasingly more frequent by mentioning or writing a one-letter in order to circumvent the rules against the mention of any clan names and titles on this site, particularly on this section, we're hence forced to make it clear once more: Rules are rules, and they clearly state and against any mention of Soomaali clan names. Whether you refer a clan name by its full known name or B, T, J, the rules, once again reminded, are the rules: Do not mention clan names nor single letters intended to represent them. From now on, any clan name mentioned, including the stand-alone letters, will be edited on this section, no exception. This thread will be sticked or featured for the next few days on the top.

I regarded the Jubaland state formation as a way out of the debacle. Hiiraale's clan have a right like all others including yours to the city of Kismayu. I have no business in Kismaayo. Neither personal nor family. Even if you alluded, say, the clan I was said to belong's land, noo, it isn't. The only circumstance I do have common this once beautiful and great city is it is a Soomaali city, oo dad aan u dhalan ku hardamayo, anagoo soo taagan wali, whom we should never differentiate. I, along with Indhamdoowe iyo kii kale laga ceeriye meesha has no business to rule or to participate Kismaayo currently. The only difference is I do understand my position, laakiin dadka kale waashay, would they? I am afraid not. Another interesting part is that you are against Laascaanood inay kamid noqoto Waqooyi Galbeed's dowlad, but you are, interestingly, fine with so-called, never gonna-happen "Jubbaland" oo dadka u dhalan rabin. Reer Dhoobleey, Baraare, Bu'aale iyo Afmadoow "Jubbaland" ma rabaan, so do reer Saakoow, Baardheere, Luuq iyo Ceelwaaq. So are Jilib, Jamaame iyo inta ka dhisan meesha.

They call me Jinoole-aw-Jacburis, duqa. We're all macalins and students, by the way.

I will do what is known on online a fisked refute since it seems you are knew to Soomaali affairs, point by point. I have never said I am eager for war. I denounced the war mongers and war lords that were based in Mogadisho. They left Somalia bankrupt and killed innocent civilians, mothers and children. One can detect you are almost eager for war among Soomaali factions. Any Soomaali person with four year's old toddler's brain can see where your eagerness derives from: Using Soomaalis as proxy against your estranged, embittered Tigrey cousins in Addis Ababa on another front. Ah, it ain't gonnna happen, my dear friend; not now, even as bitter and adversaries as we were and are. If you want a real war with your alienated, hostile cousins, the disputed border occupied by Addis Ababa isn't missable and is definitely not located in the occupied region of Soomaali Galbeed. We have our own problems with your cousins, which we will solve in due course. About former warlords in Muqdisho, no sane, healthy Soomaali individual supported them. Most Soomaalis are glad they vanished and no trace of them remains. However, do you know there are still warlords among the group you seem enthusiastic to support? They aren't only warlords, they occupy lands where they have no business of. Their exotic names are Indhamadoowe, Seeraar, Goobaale, Dhuxuloow, Shaarub, Cirfe. Bet you haven't heard. And, yep, they are part and parcel of the misnamed Courts you applaud of. I am agaist those greedy politicians in Baidoa who are working to the destabilization of Somalia and under Ethiopia's payroll. Not everybody in TNG is "greedy." Some genuine members are Soomaali nationalists, who try to work what is best for Soomaalis. The creation of TNG took for two exhausting years and countless millions of dollars, all financially for the benefit of Kenya no doubt, still it born out some functioning legitimate identity, not an identity created by vacuum of war and power-hungry mad fanatic men as those you support seem to. I am no friend of TNG, either, only say/write what I consider. Yes, some are puppets of Itoobiya, including C/llaahi Yuusuf and Geedi; they, however, won't be there forever. I am for those who sought peace and are expanding their influence peacefully. That IUC do not seem "peacefully" at all, let alone their peaceful expansion. All major towns they took was the result of war and bloodshed, including Xamar [Muqdisho], Jowhar, Balcad, Dayniile, and if it wasn't those in other towns like Beledweyne or Kismaayo, there would have been another much bloodshed. They themselves admitted that they will do everything to achieve their goals, be it by the gun or by the baroon. We were told that Kismayo will be a blood bath or a war front. contrary to these lies Kismayo fell in ot the hands of the ICU without a single shot. What does that tell you? Had the warlords in Kismayo had the support of the people they would have done their share to save them from what they called 'terrorists'. I can see, again, you are naivete when it comes to the internal Soomaali conflicts. Kismaayo was ruled by two occupying forces from regions far, far away, only united by the zeal deal of ruling the city illegally and getting rid of anything valuable, including the trees for selling as charcoal. The one force that is powerful was never shy of supporting the so-called Courts since they and those who dominate Courts share deep into sub-sub-clans, thus facilitate to partcipate its wars in Muqdisho. The other co-occupier, like the former above, pretty well knew they had no business to be there first, and finally realized they had no chance of defending themselves if there is a war, let alone a whole city. They chose to abandon instead of massacres, shelling the city and its population and unnecessarily bloodshed. As a caring Soomaali, however, I am glad there was no war.
