Salaan... Originally posted by Baashi: I voted for Republic! I'm against the idea of the institutionalized triblasim plus I think Somalis are not matured enough to embrace federalism...federalism is reduced a union of tribes...each tribe is composed of sub-clans, and by the time these sub-clans settle their diffrences...we will be left a ineffective, polorized, and disintegrated polity, where every project in regional importance is seen as a one that benefits to a particular sub-clan and thus blocked by other sub-clans. Thank you very much, indeed, Mr Baashi. Exactly what I always said. Laakiin yaa ku dhageysanaayo. And by the way, the idea of federalism was rejected almost 50 years ago when it was initiated and suggested by the people who live primarily Baay and Bakool regions. That fikrad was rejected by no other than those who advocate it now. Why they had rejected the federalism concept before is mysterious. Perhaps, their power-base is shrank, and only federalism would they think to achieve that power back into glorious days. __________________ Macsalaama.

Someone in early days of the civil strife, with the disbelief and shocking faces of everyone, said that we will one day miss Aw Siyaad Barre. I am no fan of Siyaad Barre and his socialist policies, but nothing shocking about that phrase would it shock anyone now, would it?

Salaan... It is not only xaraan, it was wrote by someone and was intended for some people who suffer from inferiority complex--supposedly by African-Americans to themselves. It doesn't really inspire, rather disgraces their race to the point of lowliness. Talking about 'thick' lips, 'kinky' hair, 'big broad' nose, etc, clearly shows how lower rank and status those physical qualities are to them, thus aspiring to have gentle lips, soft hair and straight nose. ________________ P.S.: That poem would never really inspire Soomaalis, since most Soomaalis do not suffer from inferiority complex, such the aforementioned physical qualities. One clear thing we suffer from is superiority complex, not otherwise. ______________ Macsalaama.

Salaan... Do you guys also know the word "Fircoon" itself is a hotly disputed Soomaali word. It is two syllable words, consisting fir and coon. Now, both words are pure Soomaali words, hence: Fir means "dynasty" in Soomaali. Coon means "very old" in Soomaali. Combine them. What did you get? Old dynasty, ehe? Fircoonis might have even copied the Naaso Hablood hills. The famous "naaso" on the hills clearly resemble the pyramids. Naaso Hablood mountains. _______________ Macsalaama.

Salaan... "When I am in the U.S. no one knows me, respects me, or calls me professor. Here I get all that, and I am helping my country," said California-trained agriculturalist Hussein Iman . "There are risks but death is everywhere. Some of my friends went to Canada: They died there. Some died in the ocean between here and Yemen. Some went to Libya and died in the desert. Some were killed in Nairobi." Heey, that is my brother-in-law. I see he likes to be called professor. I ain't gonna call him that. He is always Xuseen Macalin Iimaan to me. Most warlords are only vaguely aware of its existence, and the university's president, Saudi-trained historian Ali Sheikh Ahmed Abubakar , says that isn't a bad thing. "If some of the warlords knew about us they could create problems," he said. This guy is very educated man. At one time I was with them, they were having a meeting with this gaal, and that Cali Sheekh Axmed guy was speaking to the gaal in Soomaali on his face. The gaal guy was nodding, as though understanding the Soomaali language. He could have easily spoken in English, but he chose Soomaali, which tells us how he values his own mother's tongue.

Salaan... The wanna-be folks of Salman Rushdie are popping up from every corner and trying too hard to emulate him. Some are going as far away ahead of him, thus too hard trying to have their 15-minutes of fame. Such people is Irshad Manji, a Canadian Ismaciili "Muslim." Recently there was an uproar in the Muslim community of Canada, because her book published in Canada by this so-called outspoken lesbian "Muslim," who calls herself a "moderate" and in her book tries too hard to discredit every fundamental creed of Islam, calls her shots against Islam. A self-confessed admirer of Israel and its terror against Falastiin people, tries to teach us--Muslims--about virtues of Islam. By questioning the fundamental, deep-rooted principles of Islam, including the Quraan's divineness to our Prophet's actions, her teaching has no beneficial and is futile, including her lesbianess Having the drums of the Canada's mainstream media at her side, she maximized by going far to declare she is going to receive death threats. O' Ayatullah, where art thou???!! Enjoy your 15-minute of fame bashing Islam, marax yaheey. ________________ Macsalaama.
