Blessed Posted March 22, 2004 Originally posted by Sophist: For those who were mesmerised by the wensday's spectacle then perhaps this would be an apportunity that will enchant their soul. I am rather mystified and disappointed at Sophists misuse of the SCC meeting. The SCC is a working group set up to enable Somalis in the UK to highlight the problems faced by the community based in the UK. It consists of several groups, covering various areas such as education, health, racism … including a working group on Somaliland (HA!). I wasn’t aware that the SCC took up the job of uniting Somalia :confused: I thought that was left to the guys in Kenya. Perhaps, Mr Sophist wants elaborate on the change of SCC’s focus – from tackling Social issues in the UK to dealing with Somalia’s political problem. What is the obsession with Somaliland? How is last week’s demonstration and Riyales visit related to the SCC? Why did you have to go there bro? To The Nomads, Please, attend the meeting as it deals with the problems faced by our community (all those who are ethnic Somalis – regardless of their political ideology) in the UK.

Sophist Posted March 22, 2004 Salamu Alaikum, Walaaleey, hade warka aad kobtan kusoo qortey hade waa war saxan; laakiin hade anigu goormaan iri cutubkan ayaa wuxuu mideenahayaa Soomaali oo idil. Sababta aan arinkaan usoo darxiyey waxa weeye in hade dadka indhohoodu kuweyn yihiin daartan Westminster bal iney ogaadaan in lagu shiraayi inaaney wax saas usii weyn ayna aheyn. SCCna hade walaashiis waad saad usheegtayoo urur siyaasiyadeed ma uu aha; ee waa urur utaagan hormarinta mujtamaca soomaaliyeed ee ku dhaqan wadankaan Boqotooyada ah ee aanu haatan deganahay. Maadaama aan kamid ahay xilqaadayaasha garabka saxaafada iyo hormarinta sumcada dadkeena; hade waxaa ii muuqatey maandhey xilkeyga guto. Maandhey, obsessionkan iyo waxaad sheegeysaayi waa maxaya? Mandheey I hope this clarifies stuff for you. Nabad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AYOUB Posted March 22, 2004 Thanks for that Sophist but what is the purpose and agendum of this meeting exactly? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blessed Posted March 22, 2004 oh boy o'boy! some people think this is a school age game..."they did it... lets do it too" Actually, the SCC has been running for over a year now. The group was started by Islington's MP - Jeremy Corbyn and they have been having meetings in the House of Commons. Now, the SCC does a great deal of work in bettering circumstances of The British Somali Community. Sophist is pulling a 'show off' stunt and is making the nomads aware of the fact that any one can go into the House of Commons (including himself) - hence belittling Mr. Riyaale's visit last week. Childish, I say :rolleyes: Sophist, People were not fascinated by the building itself but by the prospect of getting recognition for Somaliland. I find it interesting that you never shared details of the former SCC meetings with the nomads. For that reason, your intention is clear. As for my comment on unifying of Somalis, apologies, you didn’t say that. However, I was going by what was written in Samurai’s Press release. I assumed that you were in agreement, since you generally agree with Samurai and the fact that you failed to correct him. Furthermore, considering the constant skirmish with regards to unity between the nomads, you could have approached the invitation more sensitively. My problem, with how you presented this meeting is that it misrepresents the SCC and that there is a risk of putting people off attending. I'm sure, there is more to the meeting than a mere appreciation of the architectural works of the building, wouldn’t you agree? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valenteenah. Posted March 22, 2004 I was wondering why the SCC meeting was being publicised in the politics section! Ayoub, The Somali Co-ordinating Committee is made up of representatives of 13 different working groups, who as Ameenah mentioned, have been researching the problems Somalis in the UK encounter in every possible sphere and putting forward policy recommendations for future action. This up-coming meeting is the 5th one of its kind. I havent received the meeting agenda yet, however, since the SCC are in the middle of organising a national conference to draw attention to the needs of the Somali community and better ways of meeting them, I'm sure thats what the meeting will be concentrating on. Suldaanka, This meeting and the SCC have nothing to do with Somali/Somaliland politics. They are only concerned with issues relating to the social problems affecting British-Somalis. Ameenah Thanks for the clarification. Sophist Walaalo, the SCC has enough problems as it is. Let us not add to it, ok? Londoners, The meeting is open to all. So do attend Insha'Allah.

Gediid Posted March 22, 2004 Its good hear that Somalis in the UK are working together towards a better society and are exploring solutions to their common problems.This topic I believe is better suited in the general section of the forum so that the larger populace benefit from it.Its however unfortunate that certain people would politize such events without really comprehending the magnitude of their actions.I think its in the best interest of those concerned to show a concerted effort to thwart any such individuals and their negative actions. Good luck to all those involved and thanks a million to Ameenah and DnD for highlighting the importance of this meeting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraGon Posted March 22, 2004 Ameenah, DnD Thanxx for the clarification...Sophist report was vague and misleading I thought SCC was a political organization formed by Somaliweyn Camp to thwart the ambitions of Somalilander recognition. Sophist Whats your position in SCC???? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gabbal Posted March 22, 2004 Ameenah abaayo although agreeing very much with what you had to say, I would say there has been a misunderstanding between you and Sophist. Sophist posted an invitation to Somalis, regardless of political ideology, from his beginning post. If you go back and read Samurai's post, it has nothing whatsoever to do with Sophists. I don't believe Sophist even commented about Samurai's radio laascaanood post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blessed Posted March 23, 2004 ^^^Darling, I've already settled that with Sophist ... in my second post I wrote the following... As for my comment on unifying of Somalis, apologies, you didn’t say that. However, I was going by what was written in Samurai’s Press release. I assumed that you were in agreement, since you generally agree with Samurai and the fact that you failed to correct him. Furthermore, considering the constant skirmish with regards to unity between the nomads, you could have approached the invitation more sensitively. I don't know why reer LA are being told about the SCC meeting. I'm sure they have more urgent concernes than what Londoners are doing for themselves...
