baala xoofto Posted March 31, 2022 11 hours ago, maakhiri1 said: Somalis are very delusional people, check this example of war going on for 8 years, and has done alot more damage than North, has far more population, more intense, like ww1, they dig trenches . Galbeedi, waxba hala doodin, nin meel ucadahay, meeli ka madoow, they will tire u with sheeko guri First of all, the war in the Donbas is conventional war where the two sides have a frontline where they each defend. This type of war used to be deadly for the soldiers in the old days. In the old days, a full infantry fight would take place where soldiers even would go as far as using swords or daggers to kill each other if they run out of bullets. These days, nothing like that happens. If a side thinks they are not able to hold a certain area, they just retreat back. So it is more slow more considerate wars. Besides, the Donbas is a fight between rebels who are backed by Russia's military and Air cover vs Ukraine which is also a modern military. There is no desperation from either side. Which explains why the civilian casualty from both sides. In the case of what took place in Northern Somalia, it was a case of a Government that trying to save face and avoid defeat at whatever the cost. Vs a group that had nothing left to go back to accept win or die. It was the ultimate challenge. Somalia Government indiscriminately used whatever weapons under its control to try to win the war. Including moving 80% of Somalia Armed forces to Waqooyi Galbeed and Togdheer. Probably the only way you could believe what took place is if General Morgan or other high ranking Siyad Barre men come out and spill the beans. There is a reason why they are keeping quiet b/c they still hurt by how they bite the dust. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last leader that some credibility and used to sometimes tell what is going , without spinning, was Egal "97% referendum" is of those who voted. Obviously if the ones that are against also voted, that number could be lower but since they didn't vote - they are not taken into the statistics. hopefully that explanation puts an end to this for you. With regards to your assertion "didn't get enough attention for recognition", that is actually very wrong. A number of high ranking former diplomats including USA's Africa top Diplomat Tibor Naggy have all said that Somaliland issue had a lot of sympathy but other more priority issues always take precedence. A case of the squeaky hinge getting the oil. If you have any other burning questions regarding what you term as "fabrication", please let me know. I am happy to quell your intrigue.

However, Somaliland's selling point to any potential buyer, who may want to support Somaliland's aspirations to succeed, is there's just no other option. No sane person would look at the two current situation in Hargeisa and Mogdishu, then reach the conclusion that we need some sort of unity. The only people who support that position are those who are a) in the frying pan themselves, or b) don't have any knowledge of the situation. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baala xoofto Posted April 1, 2022 A huge fire engulfed the Waaheen market in center of the city of Hargeisa. It took firefighters 7 hours to bring it undercontrol. What spread the fire so fast is due to windy weather and the Waaheen market which is highly dense market with all the roads occupied by vendors. This tragic even will herald an opportunity to remake the market into a more vibrant and safe environment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baala xoofto Posted June 16, 2022 Somaliland expects to export over 1 million of Berberawi Blackheads over the next 3 weeks. Al-Jaabiri Livestock company alone will buy 1/2 million. The other livestock traders like indho-Deero and Baxsane and other smaller traders will make up the difference. A lot of hard-currency injected into the local economy in the next few weeks. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was only recently that Jaamac Kadiye's son was brutally wounded in the face by Clan melitia from Garowe during the Saax-Maygaag clan conflict. He was travelling alone to Garowe when he was stopped and shot in the face. They left him for dead but managed to drive himself to Garowe's hospital. It seems that experience has made the Poet switch sides. News on Jamac Kadiye's son earlier this year.

The fire just grew and grew and engulfed the whole market within minutes - not even hours. Within the first 10 minutes, a whole street was on fire, the next 30 minutes the whole market was on fire. But yes, this has cut the long and tiresome process of otherwise revitalising the market through negotiations. It is a golden opportunity for any local government to get a blank-canvas in a prized real-estate like the central market district. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
