"I have to say that Hussein for one comes no where close to the amount of atrocities commited by Barre." LANDER
Obviously, LANDER your english language use in these forum is way passed us my dear somali brother. Having said that, you have no idea what the ppl of Iraq have gone through in Saddamland. before I go further, I have to say that Hussein for one comes no where close to the amount of atrocities commited by Jaale maxamad siyaad barre and your cousin Jaale Igaal. Remember my friend in 1995 what happened in your "Land". The point I want to make is that we know barre what he did for good and bad, but why you always commited to bring this up in every forum post. This is not a coincident that you mention the eleged attrocities commited against "the hashimiates". In fact I have been following previous articles of yours, and all what is it about is "look at us, look at you".
Coming back to the issue, I have seen how hopeless the brothers and sisters are in discussing these political issues. First of all, no one deny that (in someday, some stage in your short lives) you'll end up in "Somali terretories". If we "those who know how to read and write "didn't even bother to look forward and take part of our common dreams, WHO WILL FOR ALLAH'S SAKE? Americans came and left. Arabs don't have interest in you. Ethiopia can't wait to reach the Ocean or Aden Gulf.How hopeless is that?! To summerise, I wish Elman Cali Axmed was with us today so that I cast my vote to him, sadly he got murdered in 1996.
