Look truth be told by now we"Somalis" are devided we have to agree on that note, i know even in this site we are extremely devided either you support the so called" Maxkamiinta" who by enlarge compose clans and who were memebers of the gangs who raped,killed and looted. So accept on that note first.And in my eyes anytime you support them i am against you and will like to see your death brought sooner then later .But the leaders of Puntland and Somaliland, two self-governing areas of northern Somalia, have said they will fight any attempt by the Islamic Courts to invade their areas. Dozens of you who are in this site and support these thugs why on earth not go back or atleast publicly tell us were you part of the gangs? and please don't hide behind relegion for once.

Wise up "Sheikh"The term literally means a man of old age, and is used in that sense in Qur'anic Arabic. Later it came to be a title meaning leader, elder or noble, especially in the Arabian Peninsula, where sheikh became a traditional title of a Bedouin tribal leader in recent centuries. In South Asia the term applies to individuals of Arab decent.The title is not only used by Muslims; it is also used by Arab Christians for elder men of stature, showing that it is independent of religion. Its usage and meaning is similar to the Latin senex meaning old man, from which the English "senator" is derived. It is also used to refer to scholars of various Islamic sciences such as faqihs, muftis, and muhaddiths So you can sheikh to anyone.Even the killers, looters and rapers who are calling now days"Maxkamadiinta" You can call if you favor them Sheikhs' Got it!

Since this seems to be one sided story. Call it "Narrowing the God's Gap" Isn't that what is this game all about. Who can outwit on God's side.

It is nice to see Mn voted nice this time around. But being a muslim in this case doesn't mean anything at all and let's stop labeling this man quickly. We will see how he votes come january,2007

i fully support the UIC in defeating the TFG and its 'allies' for the sake of the people Here is your answer of wanting one wish "Tribe". Fully supporting with no regard of past deeds and disgust. Hint Somali will never Unite again as long as we have people who blindfold their attrocity and wishy washy.

King 450, you have crossed the line What a depressing picture! atleast am not hiding behind relegion ,i said what i said and i meant. You can lick his *** if you wish,alleging some 1 croos the line.You either yourself was one time part of the gangs or looking the other way,so in this case you perhaps is the one who had crossed the line 16yrs ago and still walking perpendicular in nature. Look you can be behind these thugs but don't tell me as a thread. If the truth hurts. Then Go to hell! Maybe this will be the only slogan you of all people will listen.

To the People of Mogadishu The Judges of the Islamic Courts of Somalia The youth who liberated our captive people All Well wishing Somalis and non Somalis worldwide Well your true color came out. Representing killers and looters in public is same as ignoring those of us who have lost loved ones. Go to hell.

Do "Islamic militias" commit war crimes? This seems to be a very simple Q. But again this sort of Q shows how Somalis Devide. If your family were members of warlords who committed attrocity then and now changed their shirt and calling themself "God's ppl" then you are for them and falling behind their guilt .If not then the answer must be overwhelmingly"Yes". These thugs commit a crime we as a human race can't clean it or hide it under the rug. Rather than asking forgiveness here they are multiplying every day and literally telling unholly words. I for one don't want see and associate these *******s and the likes of them who are hiding behind Relegion. It is telling to see their product in this site .If you support these ppl then you have no right to be outside of their hell house ,why not go back and associate your kinds. By the way what made you scape somalia. I bet it is not a pleasure to be foreign land for almost 16yrs and still supporting them. These ppl must be stopped one way or another.

Only such will claim to be the God's people while in reality they can't even clean their asses for the sins they have committed. All of sudden we are experiencing the hatred that has been done ,yes it will never be over as long as we have such keep popping up in our life time. It is time to be put them an end and wipe them out the face of the earth. How more can they ruin the lifes of innocents. If they want to control thier own let it be, stay Muqdishu and where they are majority. Enough is enough. Somalis will never be united again. Division is the only option. Hate to be a neighbor again such bloody people.

Warlord Abdullahi Yuusuf has openly expressed his views towards Islam, saying that Islam has no place in the governance of Somalia, and its supporters must be killed and destroyed. I hate responding to politics but once in a while you seem to throw in yourself the lies going around. In your thread you are calling the real Warlords the Army of God. Now please expain to me this. These Thugs ,looters, rapers not long ago were part of the gangs that terrorized somalia. How soon did you forget these you calling army of god are the ones who said when the civil war started ,it is legal to rape your neighbors, steal their houses, kill them in the name of God. How on earth do you expect those of us who lost thier valluables and loved ones to follow these holligans and the ones like you who are behind them 100% without pointing out what they have done. Any ***** can hide behind Relegion.But if you want to see the Army of God ,they will be the ones who did not commit any of the things that i mentioned. Can you really say in public here this forum you choosen that they "Army of God's" did not commit any rape,killing and looting and still live houses that does not belong to them. If you can say that then we will see where the bendullum will tilt.

You are brave enought o ask! Tell us how can we raise the funds, do you have specific account where you want our donation to go.In this site alone there are about 3,000 of us who are members and we can forgo a cup of coffee for a day!So please help us help you , Where i personally can send the cup of coffee cost?

He did the best way he could help his dispersed brothers ,ada boy.

Walaahi waa cajiib, did you forget what brought you out here is not shear of luck but the devastating effect that happened the so called back home,rape ,killings,looting. Why wonder one never have the brain to think before they post such !

I hope they don't abuse these women ,wonder if they have the right to be represented or known their living situation.

Somaliland President and The Vise President are extremely over paid Sept 25 2006 The nation of Somaliland, which is one of the poorest countries in the world with unemployment rate of 92% and most people live under extreme poverty. The Somaliland economy is based on a liberal-market system, under which the private sector business is thriving, however the economy is still extremely fragile and poverty among Somaliland's population of 3.5 million is high, and yet the Somaliland President and Vise president salaries accedes that of most industrials countries in the world, for example the wealthiest country in the world the United State of America, President salary is $400,000 and the vise President $208,100. Somaliland Republic one of the poorest countries in the world, the President salary is $412.698 US Dollars 12.698 more that the President of the wealthiest country in the world the United State of America. The Vise President $182,539 just under 25.561 than the Vise President of The USA. The President and The Vise President of Somaliland are extremely over paid and unless the people of Somaliland take it to the streets and protest this will continue for generation to come. Democracy is a principle whereby people in a country freely elect representatives who make laws and govern with popular support. A democratic government also implies that the people can change a government if they are dissatisfied with it, which means that power is derived from the consent of the majority and that government acts according to the will of the majority. People of Somaliland should demand explanations in peaceful manner against the unjust salaries of the President and the Vise President; people should demand a salaries reform in Somaliland.

Well you did the only thing that each and every smart person could have done, drop the damn course. you would not have gained anything beside being sacrificed even if you have worked so hard you might acheived B-. But word of advise take the course again from the same teacher this time watch your tongue and don't create divisions in your classmates.

Wonderfull article, but it is said "Far iyo meel bugta baa is og". The fact is by far Somali women are overall the best in every aspect ,majority of them are lavish and god given cleaniness,some one who by nature washes up after can't be compared some 1 who runs to the bathroom and comes out as they ran in. Saying that yes there are some of them who can't get bathed sooner before their husband comes back home. So let's see what is causing . 1-They are doing as told by other individuals the hardest work of all "taking care the children" damn it that alone takes a toll in them,feeding running screaming after the kids all day is very hard and tedious job for one person to handle. 2-This is the funny part, yes some "Men" now days are sharing the "Uunsi with the women" and maybe have it occured to you ,the price of UUnis went up and you are not providing more money to take care herself to smell good for you. Anyway i hope our women don't side step their culture and keep what their mother and mother's mother have kept all these centuries.

Back to the thread, as i have mentioned previously with another site for the same thread ,such men are rare in my mind they are special breed of men and those of us who are opening our mouth loudly can't top these men, so my hat is off to them. Secondly remember such men are not even using "Viagra" and can handle more than one mate. Thirdly i am sure some of the women love to have threesome but don't want admit it but instead dance around. Good luck to him and may you prosperously have gr8 children.

This is really pathetic how low can we get . But what amazes me most as some of you already mentioned is this ,how come a GF and BF conceive a baby? that is sin or perhaps this is a common act in St paul or for that matter MN. I am also aware by now that even those who are married allegedly tell the authority they either seperated or divorced inorder to get more income,if that is the case we will see more of this violence cz women are putting this situation to themself ,if your man is telling you to lie don't do it tell him be gone for good. Well i am not heartless my prayer goes to this lady and i hope she will never return to this man or such men again.

What an interesting time we are living. Those of us who used to live "Sheikh Yusuf" knows very well about the "Villa Somalia" and it does not belong to any Warlords they need to be wiped out and save the place to the somalis it belong to all of us. Since The true former democratic elected prez Mr Adan still lives.It is time for him to speak and request to be the care giver for that historical building. I concur that Amen!

Modesty first of all all these suggestion are ok but not gr8. my suggestion to you is this,health wise you need to do two things quickly see your doctor immediately and have a "Thyroid Test" secondly it could also be slightly little be too much hormone which sometimes causes human hair to shed. So check and if everything comes back ok then do every other advice if you wish, take care and good luck

Whether one is Pro or Con for this old General it doesn't matter,but truth be told he was as i heard the former head of somali police force if i am mistaken then correction is needed here, so if he was then this man knew what the former dictator done ,taking ppl from their home at late night and beating them or perhaps killing them ,he has perhaps authorized or knew about what was going the killing of innocent somalis, did he raise his voice i bet not,and all of sudden he is Mr innocent and don't remember his association with the dictator, plz spare me.How quickly he forgets his standing to the somalis!

Thanks Red Sea,amazing nothing changes in here)SOL) why a non-somali wants 2 go back somalia?

MC,nothing to be surprised i blv it is a good gestrue one to remember his/her motherland.But if you want to go back atleast make sure you have some sort of trade to help your fellow somalis. Like Dr Aidrus's clip. http://www.somalism.com/videos.html

Now comes the hard part as always who is going to run day to day activities,oh by the way did this mean stolen houses will be returned, rapers will be hunted down and you know what?I for one will not blv anything less than seeing those who comitted attrocity be punished and put to justice then we will talk.Other than that consider this another plot.
