NAIROBI, 18 September 2007 (IRIN) - Scores of families have fled their homes following a clash between forces from the self-declared republic of Somaliland and the autonomous region of Puntland in Somalia. "A heavy exchange of artillery took place around the village of Abeseoley [22 km north of the regional capital, Las Anod]," said Faisal Jama, a resident of Las Anod in the Sool region, to which both sides lay claim. The 17 September clash resulted in the killing of two nomads along with their herd of goats, and caused families living near the front to flee. "People fled the village of Anjiid [16 km north of Las Anod] and moved to Las Anod," he said. Jama said reports from the area indicated that the fighting was between Puntland and Somaliland forces. It was not immediately clear what triggered the fighting or what the casualty figures were. Both sides were accusing the other of initiating the hostilities. Ahmed Aden Arab, the Puntland deputy minister for local government, said Somaliland forces started the shelling. "They started it and we responded," he said. However, Somaliland spokesman, Said Adani, termed the accusation baseless. "This is between clans," he said. "Somaliland forces have nothing to do with it." The regions of Sool and Sanag, in northern Somalia, geographically fall within the borders of pre-independence British Somaliland, but most of the area's inhabitants, the Warsangeli and *********** communities, who are members of the larger ***** clan, are associated with residents of Puntland. Tension between the two sides had been simmering since Puntland troops took total control of Las Anod in December 2003. Before then, both sides had official representation in the town. The area was reported to be calm but tense on Tuesday. "There is no shelling this morning but there is a lot of movement of forces in the area," Jama added. Arab said the likelihood that people would be affected by the clash was real. "They [somaliland] are preparing and we are too," he said. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) for Somalia said the shelling took place for four hours in an area 22 km north of Las Anod. Matthew Olins, the acting head of OCHA-Somalia, said: "We are very concerned about anything that could possibly escalate tension between Puntland and Somaliland." However, he added he was hopeful that the tension would continue to diminish.

Somaliland and Puntland in War, as Moderate Leader rises in Somali South As unity seems to emerge out of the Asmara meeting of hundreds of Somali delegates, vowed to keep infamous ‘Ethiopia’ out of Somalia, war erupts in other parts of the multi-divided Somalia. A tit-for-tat, good and bad news follow one another in a precipitating rhythm. Somalia has been de facto divided into three parts; Somaliland seceded proclaiming independence in 1991 in the North to control the former British Somali colonial territory. With the center of the Somali civil war converging to the South, Somalia’s North-Eastern and Central part declared autonomy in 1998 under the name of Puntland that underscores 3500 years of Somali History, notably due to the extensive passages of Pharaoh Hatshepsut’s Expedition to Punt (1480 BCE). Ever since then, people thought that civil strife would be hopefully limited in Somalia’s southern part only. Unfortunately, this proved to be wrong. Quite unfortunately, due to the nefarious ‘Ethiopian’ interference, successive divisions, strives and discords have occurred over the past few years. Rancorous racists, the Abyssinian tyrants of ‘Ethiopia’ want to maintain Somalia divided, as they consider this great historical country as their enemy no 1. Reminiscent of the unforgettable Abyssinian defeat and humiliation at the hands of the Great Somali King Ahmed Ibn Ibrahim, the Abyssinians, under monarchical, communist or bogus-federal/pseudo-republican regimes, have been incessantly revengeful and hateful in their attitude and policy towards Somalia; even today, fake ‘Ethiopia’ occupies a vast part of Somali territory, namely the tyrannized province of ****** where almost 5 million Somali face on daily basis multifaceted excruciating and intolerant oppression practices. The different national aspirations led to the magnification of the most secondary and insignificant divergences. Somaliland regime sought to get international recognition without any success. Contrarily, Puntland rulers decided to wait until the civil strife ends in the Somali South in order to merge again into one and united Somalia. Tribal and territorial differences have been added, and repeatedly rekindled by the catastrophic and malignant ‘Ethiopian’ pseudo-diplomats. Thus, Somaliland’s harbour Berbera became almost an ‘Ethiopian’ port, helping the landlocked country to avoid the relatively high Djibouti port tolls. The territorial disputes evolve around a strip of land between Somaliland’s Erigavo and Puntland’s Bossasso (Bandar Kassim) which stretches from the ‘Ethiopian’ border’s Easternmost corner to the Gulf of Aden. This territory is inhabited by the Somali tribes Sool (inland) and Sanaag (on the seaside). The territorial conflict is not due to disputes for natural resources, strategic locations and historical claims. It is all due to the nefarious ‘Ethiopian’ infiltration that the UN, major powers, Human Rights activists and NGOs must finally decide to contravene and eradicate. Quite indicatively, part of the disputed territory, mostly the Sanaag tribe territory, self-declared independence as another state under the name Maakhir just a few months ago (1 July 2007). The hostilities that took place over the past 48 hours targeted Las Anod, capital of Sool, at a distance of few kilometers from the ‘Ethiopian’ border. As the town belongs to Puntland, Somaliland had gathered military forces at a close distance. According to Puntland website Garowe Online and quoted sources (http://www.garoweonline.com/artman2/publish/Somalia_27/Somalia_Military_buildup_along_Somaliland-Puntland_frontier.shtml), there was exchange of artillery between security forces from Somaliland and Puntland militias. One person was reported dead from Puntland’s side, whereas Somaliland’s authorities claimed that 3 fighters from Puntland were killed. Heavy reinforcements along the disputed unofficial border between Somaliland and Puntland seem to have taken place over the past few days, which suggests further deterioration. According to the aforementioned portal, “Military sources in Garowe, Puntland's administrative capital, told Garowe Online that upwards of 30 armored trucks left their barracks on Tuesday en route to Las Anod to reinforce the Puntland presence there”. With Somaliland troops having also received armed reinforcements, Somalia’s Sool province seems poised to become another hot spot in the ongoing civil war of Somalia. Somaliland had reportedly maintained heavily-armed presence at 35 km distance from Las Anod over the past four years, as the government at Hargeysa never resigned from the idea of finally re-annexing Sool and Sanaag that were part of Somaliland for no less than 12years. For the recent developments the government at Garowe held former Puntland Security Minister, Ahmed Abdi Habsade as responsible; as he had been fired by the Puntland President Adde Muse last July, Mr. Habsade was considered to have fast made an agreement with the Somaliland authorities in an effort to dissociate his sub-clan from Puntland – which he reportedly denied. Local inhabitants have expressed great concern about the military building in the area, and IRIN (the website of the UN Office for the Coordination of Human Affairs / OCHA) reported that dozens of families from the conflict area were fleeing from their places, following the casualties. According to a Las Anod inhabitant, Faisal Jama, the artillery exchange occurred at Abeseoley, a village at 22 km from Las Anod, involved one casualty, and ended up in the flight of the entire population of the village Anjiid (16 km in the North of Las Anod), who tried sought safety in Las Anod. IRIN website report quotes the Ahmed Aden Arab, vice-minister of the Puntland government, who accused Somaliland for the beginning of the hostilities, adding that Puntland forces only riposted. The same report published the rejection of the Puntland accusations, quoting Said Adani, Somaliland government spokesman, who attributed the hostilities to local clan clashes, thus downplaying worries for escalation, and explicitly stating that the Somaliland forces were not involved at all (http://www.irinnews.org/fr/ReportFrench.aspx?ReportId=74392). As the report correctly adds, the long disputed area that was part of the British colonial Somaliland territory is inhabited by Warsangeli and ***********, who belong to the wider ***** tribe and have a closer relationship with populations encompassed within Puntland. Until 2003, Las Anod was part of Somaliland, but following the military raid of Puntland soldiers – effectuated in December 2003 –, it has been kept under Puntland control. This shows very well that the colonial borderlines do not reflect the real situation among the area’s various populations, and that the UN should immediately debate and deliberate on an urgent pacification in Somalia. As Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed, Chairman of the new Alliance For The Re-Liberation Of Somalia, gets momentum – particularly after the Asmara Meeting, it would be wise to ponder on how the Somali South will be pacified first. In this regard, it will be imperative for the US administration to conclude on the futility of a continued support offered to the unrepresentative and inexistent Transitional Federal Government of Somalia, and to the loathsome, criminal ‘Ethiopian’ tyrant Zenawi, starting thus to seek ways how to approach and cooperate with Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed, who dissociated himself from the ominous Islamist Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys. As Somali opposition figures, meeting in Asmara last Friday, named Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed as chairman of a "liberation" alliance, vowing war on Ethiopian troops and urging the exit of Ugandan peacekeepers from the Horn of Africa nation, it becomes urgent for the US administration to reconsider its Horn of Africa strategy from scratch. Through the catastrophic alliance with the bogus-‘Ethiopian’ tyranny of the tribal chieftain Meles Zenawi, the US did not only ignite the Islamist fire but also helped create an environment within which China will drive Europe out of Africa, closing at the same time the Black Continent’s door on the face of America. We will expand on this in a forthcoming article. SOURCE

Somaliland official says al Qaeda suspects arrested HARGEISA,Sept 22 (Reuters) - Ethiopian troops arrested six men believed to be members of al Qaeda during a cross-border operation in the breakaway republic of Somaliland, a senior Somaliland official said on Saturday. There was no immediate word from Addis Ababa, which has sent thousands of soldiers to support an interim government in neighbouring Somalia threatened by Islamist-led insurgents. The chairman of Somaliland’s central region of Togdheer, Abdi Hussein Dere, told reporters Ethiopian forces entered the town of Buholde on Friday and occupied the main police station before arresting six Somalis in four vehicles. “The cars were on their way to Mogadishu,” Dere told a news conference. “After their arrest, I think Ethiopian informers told the troops the arrested men belonged to al Qaeda.” Somalia’s interim administration often accuses foreign jihadists of working with local insurgents in the capital to carry out roadside bombings and assassinations that have targeted the government and its Ethiopian military allies. In June, the U.S. military launched air strikes on the semi-autonomous region of Puntland, which borders Somaliland. U.S. officials declined to comment on a CNN report that they were targeting a suspect in the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, which killed 240 people. The United States also launched air strikes in southern Somalia in January aimed at three top al Qaeda suspects but killed the suspects’ allies instead, U.S. officials have said.

JEDDAH, - The father of a Saudi teenager who had been taken to Cairo for emergency spinal surgery says the hospital now refuses to release his son until he ponies up SR200,000 toward the hospital bill. The name of the hospital was not provided. The man is asking Saudi officials to help get his son out. He says he cannot afford to pay the bill. The Saudi claimed that his 18-year-old son was pushed off a cliff near his hometown of Baljurshee in the southwestern region of the Kingdom, after he fought off a number of men who were attempting to rape him. The fall caused organ damage and severely injured his spine, turning him into a paraplegic. The father said local police later apprehended the suspects. The teen was taken to a local hospital, but it was only able to stabilize his condition. The man said he tried to get his son into a public hospital in Jeddah, but he was put on a long waiting list. Due to financial constraints, the father said he could not afford private care. “We waited 11 days for a bed in any of the hospitals under the Ministry of Health in Jeddah,” said the Saudi, adding that his son ended up in a standard hospital bed at Jeddah’s King Fahd Hospital instead of the intensive care ward. Later, the man said, his son was taken to better facilities at the King Fahd Armed Forces Hospital, but the specialist for spinal injuries had gone abroad. With the help of some benefactors, the Saudi said the youth was taken to a hospital in Cairo that was equipped to treat him. After an emergency surgery, the youth showed considerable improvement. However, he now owes more than SR200,000 to the hospital as the cost of the surgery and other treatment. The unnamed hospital is holding the youth virtually hostage until his father pays the bill. The father said Saudi officials have not intervened in the matter. Arab news

A woman is charged with stabbing her boyfriend seven times while he was driving a tractor-trailer rig on Route 128 in Randolph Thursday night. Police say they got a 911 call from another truck driver who saw a rig slowly pull off the road around 8:30 p.m. After it stopped, the caller told police a woman holding a toddler ran off and the driver fell out of the truck, suffering from stab wounds. Investigators say 21-year-old Deka Artan of Tempe, Arizona ran off into the nearby woods, where she was captured by troopers who were working paid details nearby. When she was arrested, police say she had her 2-year-old daughter with her. Artan, who is a Somalian refugee, was held overnight at the state police barracks in Milton and was arraigned in Quincy District Court Friday on charges of assault with intent to murder. She pleaded not guilty and was ordered held on $25,000 cash bail. Her boyfriend is in critical condition at Boston Medical Center. Artan's child was placed with Social Services.

First anyone familiar with an automobile can easily identify that the parts must work properly if the driver wants to get to his destination: the battery, the engine, the tires, the steering, the transmission, the brakes, and, of course, dozens of other me­chanical parts most of us never see. The air conditioning, the radio, or the safety belts, though desirable, are certainly not indispensable compo­nents. We (Somali Landers) need to work exactly the same as the mechanics of car if we need to reach quickly in our destination as a democratically recognised country. We are inaugurating in slow pace from traditional system to democratic system. Basically it is marriage between traditional way of dealings to democratic system and it requires enormous time to evolve. Evolvement in our political attitudes, political preference Our political socialization is a should be as tool to facilitate on understanding democratic values and in during this process our government which it’s aim (even though those who politically matured during bare’s regime does not known it) is to mediate the various contending groups with bounds and promulgate the rules and settle disputes and remove elements that generating conflict and strength and encourage those that contribute social harmony and resolving problems in amicable way is another important aim of the government activity. Constitutions reflect the values, beliefs and the preferred political path of the people that a country aims to follow. Constitutions are also expected to be egalitarian (a belief that all people are equal and should have equal rights and opportunity under law) and Somaliland constitution is not exempted to attain these worldly upheld beliefs. As we stated in our constitution, we have opted to follow and implement Islamic sharia and the democratic values that as concur rents with sharia. The refusal of the Somaliland government to register a new political party in Somaliland as stated by the Somaliland ruling party is deprivation of the rights of the Somaliland citizens to organise their political belief .it is an irony to see that this two parties are banning from other Somaliland citizens form the vary way that they to came to exist as political party in Somaliland. Laws are made by the legislators and executive branch implements it and judiciary punished those violated the rule but if any flaws emerges out from the constitution then Judiciary should have send to the legislators to amend rather then hastening unnecessary action that diminishes in our international stand. On the other hand opposition parties should stop vilifying the potential development of ruling party and emulate through conductive way of manifesting their development programme and point the needs to be addressed in the country. That is that but what is the next conflict that emerging from constitution? Let be known that it will be after presidential election why? Look let me briefly explain Electoral system in Somaliland then you see what I am saying. Ballots are extensively nowadays used as a device for transforming an ordinary citizen into public official and it also provides state officials with certificate of legitimacy. The primary function of the ballot is to empower and enable the citizens to opt for from one candidate to another and vest the chosen candidate with authority to make rules and formulate policies and another imperative function of the ballot is to service as controlling mechanism and it is the threat of losing in the next election makes elected officials heeds the complaints and admonitions of ordinary citizen between elections. 1- The current operational electoral system of Somaliland has flaws, ambiguity and needs to re-examine it again before next presidential elections. Let us examine the electoral systems we have for the upcoming elections in our countries. Technically electoral systems are categories into two major groups. 1. Majoritarian. 2. Proportional Representation (PR). Majoritarian is also known as Single Member District (SMD) and has two types: SMD with Plurality and SMD with Majority SMD with plurality –Candidates receiving the comparatively largest block of valid votes – even if this plurality consists of only one vote- is elected. SMD with majority - Candidate must receive more than 50% of the valid votes, it is fine when two candidates are compete but if there is more than two candidate as happened in last presidential election then, the two largest block compete run off to win over fifty percent of valid votes. Does that happen in Somaliland? Or is the next emerging conflict after presidential election in Somaliland? Why am I saying this? Look what our electoral system says Obviously the red marked word in the rule of the electoral system which states majority system, is the next conflict Somaliland. Qodobka 22aad Habka Doorasho 1. Habka doorashooyinka degaanada wuxuu noqonayaa Habka isu qiyaasidda saamiyada kuraasta iyo tirada codadka uu xisbi/urur ka helo gobol ama degmo (proportional representative system). Hasa yeeshee doorashada Madaxweynaha iyo Ku xigeenka Madaxweynaha waxay noqonaysaa habka aqlabiyadda hal-dheeriga ah (majority system), sida dastuurku tilmaamay. Is this SMD with Plurality or SMD with Majority? The word majority should be plurality PR-- Proportional Representation Have two components – The list system and the cumulative system The list system-Parties prepare list for the candidate and voter has choice for party but not for candidate. Seats are distributed among the participant parties on the basis of percentage of votes received by each of the parties. Those with large block of votes in the district are elected. This system is giving a suffrage for the citizen but it is not providing empowerment to opt for a candidate. It is the party The cumulative system –A quota is established for electoral district and only candidates who receive at least the required minimum of valid votes are elected. From all party competitors, the candidates that receive above the quota are awarded as elected, starting from highest voted one to-second highest till fill all posts decadency order. Should few qualified the quota then minimum order quota is implemented. The way to solve of up coming problem is that parliament should address and amend any legal system that does not fit the following criteria Rules are established for purpose of remedifying in response of need and provide answers for the conflicts and the main of the legal system (Constitution ordinances Municipal) is : To achieving justice----------- --keeno cadaalad -for all citizens for all citizens To enforce intent---------------- khasb inuu yeelsiyo ujeedada - for all citizens To maintaining peace------------daryeelo nabada - for all citizens To provide protection------------keeno ilaalin -for all citizens To provide answers--------------keeno jawaabo- iska hor imaadyada- for all citizens To provide police power---------keeno awooda booliska -for all employed citizens 2 And the Legal system is also needed: To be reasonable------------------in yahay macquul To be practical--------------------- la fulin karo To be flexible-----------------------la fahmi karo To be definite-----------------------aan khalad lahayn To be published--------------------in la daabaco To be final--------------------------go’aan ka dambeys yahay Thirdly this is to cautioning and telling for those who, un-academically equipped and have the opportunity to run the country that there is contract between the government and the citizens is called Social control and the primary function of social control is the binding rules and instrumentalities used by political authority to regulate human activities in order to preserve the stability and continuity of a political system and to pro­tect its basic components. It is equally evident that if social control is not substantially matched by the presence of the six opportunities of free­dom, it may degenerate into a self-serving device of oppression. Experience clearly shows that a balance between freedom and social control existed when and where the constitutional rules and the political ethos safeguard the following "opportunities" for the individual mem­bers of the political community: 1. The right of individuals to express views and ideas without previous permission by the political authorities and without fear of later pun­ishment (the only limitations being the norms of generally sanctioned morality or the needs of public safety) 2. The right of individuals to organize and establish independent power structures without interference by the political authorities, provided that the activities of the organization do not undermine or obstruct the enjoyment of the same rights by other members of the political com­munity 3. The right to employ procedures for the orderly replacement of the po­litical authorities when there is a change in the prevailing orientations of the political community 4. The right of individuals to have unhindered and easy access to judi­cial agencies that are obligated to apply legal rules equitably, without interference or dictation by other centres of power in the community, thus shielding individuals from arbitrary sanctions or deprivations 5. The right of individuals or groups to take hold of economic resources (property, employment, or control of assets) and use them to increase their own influence and power potential so that they can counter the influence or power potential of other groups, individuals, or, most im­portant, of the political authorities themselves 6. The right of individuals to travel, communicate, choose their type and place of employment, their place of residence, and their associations, to have health protection, old-age assistance, security of person and property, and to acquire skills through training and education and to employ those skills for their own benefit without undue interference by the political authorities (social opportunities) When several of those opportunities are totally or partially removed or curtailed, we have a contraction of the diffusion of power, and the bal­ance between freedom and social control is upset in favour of social con­trol. Which has six basic objectives: 1. To protect the constitutional framework and assure that it can be changed only through the procedures sanctioned by the constitutional rules. 2. To protect the political authorities from unconstitutional attempts to replace them. 3. To protect the citizen from the actions of other individuals that may cause him bodily harm or loss of property. 4. To protect the public order and social peace from violent actions by individuals or groups. 5. To regulate the activities of individuals, legal entities, or groups in or­ der to promote orderly relationships, tone down conflict, and advance the solution of social problems. 6. To assure that the binding rules and decisions made by the political authorities will be implemented and respected by the members of the political community.

Waxaanu isagoo arrimahaa ka hadlaya yidhi; "Qoladan leh dhallinyaradda idinkaa la idiin hayaa meesha, waxaan odhan lahaa dhallinyaradda hadalkaasi wuu ku batee iyadoon la ina wada bedelin si ay u dareemaan wuxu waxa uu yahay waxoogaa ha loo baneeyo horta madaxa la galaan oo ha noqdaan wasiiro iyo guurti ha dhadhamiyaan oo xasiliyaan, laakiin yaan la odhan maalintaanu wada dhimano soo gala, waayo iyaguna maalintaa kuwa kale ayey ku odhanayaan sidaas oo kale. Meelaha nabaddu ay ka xidhmi laadahay waa dhulka hadday magaalo tahay waa baloodh, hadday miyi tahayna waa seere, dhirta la jarayaa waa meel kale oo ammaan darro inagaga soo socoto, shaqo la'aantuna waa mid. Nabadda cidna ha ku halaynina ee nin walowba intaad ku leedahay ka qaado maaha wax la isu dhiibto ee halbowle waan inaynu u soo jeednaa oo ilaashanaa." Waxa kale oo halkaa ka hadlay xubno kale oo isugu jiray xildhibaano, culimo iyo haweenba oo dhammaantooda ka waramay muhiimadda nabaddu leedahay iyo sida loogu baahanyahay in la ilaashado.

Gebogabadii shirkaa waxa laga soo saaray baaq 9 qodob ka kooban oo nuxurkiisu yahay in nabadda guud ahaan la ilaaliyo, dhallinyaro, waayeel, dawlad, bulsho iyo cid walba oo ay khusaysaa.

What if we let them marry each other, temporarily, with the consent of their parents with a condition that they stay married until they finish high school and sleep together only during the weekends in one of parents' homes. And that they should only do it using a condom. With this, there should be no worry of dropping-out of school because of pregnancy. And after finishing high school, they can upgrade their marriage to a full status or terminate it if they choose to. I believe this will help our kids to date each other legally and reduce to committing a sin! hahahahaha ,,, i tought i'm in the jokes section until i realized i'm not. In that case, i can provide condoms ,,,, seems a good marketting in the project. Ramadan karim ,,, waxaas oo kele inaga daaya salli calee ,,,
