Mantra, I think there is a little bit of confusion here, You said: I quite honestly find the idea of getting married to be absolutely terrible and said: im not strange, there must be a lot of women out there who find nothing desirable in men...arent there? So what is the connection? and clarify which is which before moving on...

^^The Somalanized is understood, what is "the rest are something called Magan" Do you have any dhaqan? Yes? Why don't you do something then... Comprehension is a blessing

^^^Only about 3 million of them, Waaw how much powerful could they be? Apparently they rule both Ethio-Eritrea inline is Somalia with help of the niggers from your region, Che??

^Aren't this people Ethiopians by nationality? Oromos have major players in the Ethiopian government and are part and parcel of that country, a good number of them include the troops currently in Somalia, so why shouldn't these refugees appeal to their country and their kinsmen directly in Ethio instead of a weak Somali government/people...

^ , How did you get to this conclusion, have you measured it or perhaps carried out experimental tests with him... Thou some people find it natural, but obviously it isn't

Lander, I thought you were one of the heayweights, now honestly are you falling for this? Or you misleading the cayaalka xaafada If, at all, any massive arrival of foreigners is forthcoming to anywhere in the republic, then don't you think that the only possible element to deal with would be the Somali Government... did you forget that Somaliland is not a recognized nation, ooh and since this is about Farmlands, do you know that the most fertile regions of the republic happens to be in the South so why talk to SL or Pland... People can dream and dreams are there to be materialised, but inviting and begging for the arrival of a white refugees kicked out by Robert Mugabe is another level of a dream... naive one... If this sort of "Smart moves" have become the strategy of Somaliland, then we should forever as ever, but thus far the only could be called smart move since independece... LOL What an accompolishement.. Good try thou

Violet who said that suggested Idea is being done... But that will now show the world and give the media the chance to air a simple thing, that Somalis are against this...

^^write on the other thread sorry

^^Congratulation to him for making this historic memorabilia... wonderful record And to add losing is a fate, as many greats have won and lost before, its part of the equation, thou some conspiracies can exist..

The only man managed to mass greater support of the Somali people from all corners of the world and within the country in a very short time, the most popular and most reported and interviewed Somali man of 2006, well known by all national and international media portals with his eleqouent diplomatic and softly aired speeches, the late UIC leader the charismatic Sheikh Sharif Ahmed... A young intelligent Somali man who left histric mark on Somalia's history and the Somalis in particular amid ruins and 16 years of disaster in just 6 months... Somalia had myriad of heroes, but none like Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed, the young chairman of the now toppled Union of Islamic Courts (UIC,) who spearheaded an unflinching public uprising campaign that ended a decade and half of turmoil in Mogadishu and South-Central Somalia. Hiiraan Online recognizes Sh. Ahmed as the person of the year 2006 for his profound contribution to that short-lived effort. We understand that Sh. Ahmed and the UIC are no longer in the political arena of Somalia, (at least for now), following Ethio-TFG’s incursion, but Sh. Ahmed’s legacy lives with us, ostensibly forever. The son of pious a father, Sh. Ahmed mastered the Qur’an and Islamic theology at puberty. He later studied law at a Libyan university. He was barely known beyond Jubba high school, where he taught geography and history during late 1990’s to early 2000. At some point, a valedictorian student of him was kidnapped by one the nefarious Mogadishu warlords for ransom. Aghast by this action, he assembled a force that successfully freed the student. This victory provided him a daring conviction that he could put a squeezing halt on the notorious kidnapping-for-ransom business in the CC neighborhood, where he lived and worked. He was elected to head the Islamic Court of CC, which soon annihilated the organized gang activity in Towfiiq. Sh. Ahmed realized that all organized gang and warlord activity could be curbed with courage and conviction. He embarked on an audacious plan to improvise a unified umbrella for more than the 30 individual Mogadishu Islamic courts, operated by distrustful clans. Thought to be impossible, he detached almost all Islamic courts from their clans and amalgamated them into a new force, dubbed “The Union of Islamic Courts (UIC.)” The new UIC jittered the foundation of Mogadishu warlords, who jumped hoops to cajole Washington’s deep pockets for anything labeled “anti-terrorism.” Before we knew, the CIA was bankrolling a new, unprecedented alliance, aptly called “The Alliance for Peace and Counter-terrorism.” It was doomed alliance. The UIC, under the deft leadership of Sh. Ahmed, crushed the warlords to near death, and pacified Mogadishu for the first time in 16 years. UIC removed nearly 300 roadblocks around the country, re-commissioned Mogadishu International airport and seaport, all the while extending its hand to the Baydhabo-holed Transitional Federal Government (TFG.) In the process, Sh. Ahmed, 43, was often referred to as the “moderate face of the UIC” in the Western media. Indeed, he developed an aura that appealed to all walks of the society, including his enemy. He’s famous for his superior oratory skills and negotiation capacity. Simply, he might be the best leader Somalia has ever known. His tenure was ended last week with Ethiopia’s invasion of Somalia, while helping the Transitional Feferal Government. Hiiraan Online recognizes Sh. Sharif Sh. Ahmed as the person of the year 2006, not only for his magnanimous personality, but for spearheading a fledgling, non-monolithic group, which, at times, overstepped its powers, and, at other times, underestimated its enemies. Whatever the cause of failure of the UIC maybe, Sh. Ahmed epitomized peace for six historic months in Somalia, where he captured the stage by every stretch of the imagination. Without him, Mogadishu, dotted with the tanks of Somalia’s once arch enemy, fear and confusion is lurking in the minds of its embattled residents, as a new chapter of their live opens, rather precipitously. We wish him the best luck in his future endeavors. Please join us in congratulating him and wishing him well.

^^LOL Observed I was neutral, thou I don't see the point

^^^Pardon me I haven't read all the article What's wrong with responses here, the Last time I checked the Evicted Zimbabwean farmers were white poeple? Is Somaliland tying to score a goal and recruit this kicked out white farmers to attain their recognition... could work you know, the only smart move I seen thus far coming from them...

Mystic, you are right for a region Puntland is under populated as any other region in Somalia, and all of Somalia is under populated, for a country! Mogadishu is big and hosts large population because all the people from neighbouring regions have moved to it and left their small towns and not only that but people from all corners of Somalia settled in there, that is why it is the largest, have been and will remain to grow even bigger as I and others plan to move in... given that thigs change for the better.. It is an important city, not doubt..

^^I must admit, sometime if you want you can be very diplomatic... but on the other hand I think, in one way or another, you should admit that you are stuck in with supporting non-diplomatic and very arrogant leaders and the fact that you would have liked they changed their attitude and unwise policies...
