peasant Posted March 5, 2008 Press TV the same folks who reported the TFG President getting slapped by Ethiopian General and now they want to tell us that Siyad Bare in 1991 was toppled by ethiopian army backed by USA.Read the bold section of the news. -------------------------- 15 Ethiopian troops killed in Mogadishu Tue, 04 Mar 2008 16:37:44 Heavy bazooka and mortar attacks by insurgents has left some 15 Ethiopian soldiers dead south of the Somali capital of Mogadishu. According to a Press TV correspondent, 15 Ethiopian soldiers have been killed and more have been injured in the al-Baraka neighborhood south of Mogadishu. This is while the previous night had witnessed the rape and killing of a mother and her 17-year-old daughter in one of the capital's main streets. "What happened to my mother and sister is tragic and I am very disturbed," said Saciid Ali Mataan the son of the murdered woman. After the US-backed Ethiopian army toppled the government in Somalia in 1991, the country has become witness to Africa's worst humanitarian catastrophe. Somalia currently has no functioning national government and the country has been run by tribal factions and warlords for more than a decade. Analysts maintain that 'the country was in better shape during the brief reign of Somalia's Islamist movement' than it has been since Ethiopia invaded the country in December 2006.

Armchair Politician Posted March 7, 2008 Ahh journalism today This is actually about the standard of reporting on Somalia these days. You think this is bad, you should read some right-wing American blogs about Somalia. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peasant Posted March 8, 2008 Dhirbaaxo thing got lots of folks smiling even my self but i thought how come this isn't reported on BBC or other news giants like AP and etc. I mean these Western media outlets can afford to put a jack on every corner of the planet to report and even include pics of all sort of weird incidents. Not to mention the anon who is said he informed the iranians could have made triple of the bucks from BBC or others. Something like that don not even have to wait someone to deliver to the rest of the world by news media and somalis are load mother lovers and the one sitting beside the president would be whispering to the dude beside him and so forth. By the time the meeting ended all entire mogadishu would have been well informed but that never happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted March 8, 2008 That was typo, of course. Of course, Maxkadamaha ayee ka wadaan and in 2006, though referring them a 'government' wey dhici kartaa, at least wax dowlad u eg ayee u maamulaayeen, unlike kuwaan dowlad ku sheega magac dowladeed huwan ee Xabashi u adeego. About the dharbaaxada, which I don't personally believe happened, at least dharbaaxada ayaa dhaanto than odey tabardaran sheeganaayo madaxweyne Soomaaliyeed saaran kaare Xabashi Xamarna u qabtay. What is more sadder -- and even more humiliating before the Soomaali eyes -- than Xabashi Xamar kuu qabto, adigoo kaarahooda saaran, dadkaagana isla kaarihii la wada mariyo? Or isla Xabashkaas ku dharbaaxo? You don't have to tell nin qaawan in uu qaawanyahay. He is already naked odeygaan, waxna u harin. Dharbaaxo wouldn't add or subtract any more chagrin disgrace than what was already known done to him and his ilks by their Xabashi masters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
