Tillamook Posted June 20, 2013 Doctor, what sort of explanation are you looking for? What don't you get about what those gents have said? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warsamaale Posted June 20, 2013 Xamar is a de facto HAG city anyway, it should be taken as a given that won't change anytime soon or indefinitely. every clan should concentrate on building their city, end of story. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carafaat Posted June 20, 2013 Nonsense. But good that we finally hear these sentiments and whats in the belly of the HAG. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xiinfaniin Posted June 20, 2013 I admit I did not watch the video . But if the title is true to the content , it is not a bad at all. It confirms the political reality in Mogadishu, and justifies what we are proposing as a sustainable model to move forward. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Passdown Posted June 20, 2013 No wonder we have been in anarchy this whole time. Just listening to these elders logic will make one understand the political deadlock facing our country. The Somali captial can not be a qabil owned and operated captial. If they want Mogadishu they can have it, but the federal government will relocate to a new capital. Mogadishu will no longer get all the projects and the qabil must rebuild their own city without a cent from the government just like all the other qabil owned and operated cities in Somalia. ps: And all the lotted properties must be bought from the orginal owners.

Aaliyyah Posted June 20, 2013 I haven't watched this video, but reading the comments I can get the jist of it. Markasta oo aad is dhahdid soomaali waxba u hagaagay labo talaabo ayeey soomaali dib u qadasa. Hadii midnimo iyo wanaag la rabin mala qofwalba intiisa ha iska jafjafto.

Xaaji Xunjuf Posted June 20, 2013 The capital city belongs to a clan , Xamar unukka leh:D But i dont really blame them Detoore Osman believes Bosaaso belongs to the Kings lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khadafi Posted June 20, 2013 Take a look at the guy 2:00. He looks like a man from the film "mad max". A mad man from an apocalyptic time. Mogadishu has its historical original inhabitants and they are known. I wonder if these so called "elders" belong to the clans mentioned by Ibn batuta during his trip to xamar. Xamar waxay ahayd Xamar daye and Soomali wey is kasaayan now that said, its also the capital of Somalia. It belongs everyone but what would our ditoore say. Does Bosaaso belong everybody? Thats the crazy thing about federalism and it's weird application in Somalia. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mad_Mullah Posted June 20, 2013 Bosaso isn't even the capital, Garowe is. Besides people are welcome to settle there and won't be hunted down like animals like in the South, same goes for Hargeisa. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xaaji Xunjuf Posted June 21, 2013 Technically Mogadishu is not the capital the constitution does not say that Mogadishu is the capital, so these old men can say that Mogadishu belongs to their clan until the constitutions defines the Capital city of the country.

uchi Posted June 21, 2013 Do these fools represent anyone? Are the locals ashamed of them? Who are they really? SFG needs to distance it self from these men, if they are to run a country and not a city. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
walaalkis Posted June 21, 2013 These guys don't represent anyone. In-fact they miss working with a warlords now that they can't get penny out of no one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElPunto Posted June 21, 2013 Somalis are odd. Does anyone in other African capitals say the capital belongs to us? Do the Oromos say Addis belongs to us or the Kikuyu say Nairobi is ours? By saying this - are these folks getting something tangible - ie money, land, status? What is their motivation? Pointless. Khadafi - there is nothing wierd about federalism for Somalia. Many other countries have it - and it works perfectly reasonably. Bosaso belongs to all Somalis, particularly those who live there - if however people are concerned with identifying who's the majority or who was there first - that's a different discussion but one that serves no real purpose apart from ego stroking.
