^It looks more than fun . I honestly think somalis need to establish classes where they teach ppl somali cultural dances. That would be much needed (especially by moi since I dont know anything abt dhaanto or saylici or any other somali dance for that matter lol)

Makhir State of Somalia aad ayaan usoo dhoweeynaya. Waa in ay tashataan oo dhulkooda yagu u talinaya, nina ma aha in uu ninkale hoos fadhiisto. Reer Makhir nolaada. You have my full support. salaam P.s somaliland iyo puntland inbadan bay dadka ka faaideesanayeen. Marka shekada ha iskasooba xidhmato. Makhir, Awdal iyo khaatumoba waxaan leeyahay wax qabsada oo dadaala. Dhulkiina ninkale ha u daba fadhisanina.

Tukaraq, Taleex, and Laascaanod are all part of khaatumo's territory. It is pretty simple to understand that fact. Of course it is up the likes of Asad who choose to clap for their one-clan waqooyi galbeed maamul and think the world revolves around them. Fact is, it doesn't. That might take time to realize given that you guys were brainwashed for over 20 years to think you own what you don't, but you will come in terms with that soon enough. salaam

Lasanod Online. Sunday, June 17, 2012 Lasanod Online:- On Saturday, 16 June 2012, the two clan- based regional administrations of Somalia, Somaliland and Puntland, have launched a coordinated unprovoked attack on the town of Tuka Raq, a Khaatumo State customs post close to Puntland. These two rival regional administrations are often at loggerheads with each other over almost everything and engage in cut-throat rivalry for the favours of the international community. But the only thing that unites them for their different reasons is their common desire to destroy the fledgling Khaatumo State of Somalia before it is able to stand on its own feet, evict its occupiers, prevail over its meddling predatory neighbours and defend its regional and national interests. Theirs is a race against time- time before Khaatumo State is free and here to stay, and time before a new permanent Somali government comes on stage, a new era of a born-again Somalia dawns that ushers the end of secessions, warlordism and the culture of the survival of the fittest. It is a race they are bound to lose but lack the vision and foresight to realise the doom of their self-defeating predatory illusions. For the one-clan secessionist enclave calling itself Somaliland, the emergence of the Khaatumo State patently debunks their claim that all the clans in former British Somaliland support the secession, belies their assertion that they are in full control of the regions of Sool, Sanaag and Cayn (SSC) on which Khaatumo State is based - two facts that negate its recognition prospects if ever there was one. For Faroole, the venal, mean-spirited ex- cab driver in Australia, who made it to the presidency of Puntland through shenanigans, it is his insatiable greed for the mineral resources of the SSC regions that is fuelling his vain mindless vendetta against the SSC people for having the temerity to terminate their membership of Puntland and establish their own Khaatumo State of Somalia at Taleex in January 2012. According to reliable eye witness reports from Tuka Raq, the Khaatumo customs token defending forces withdrew in the face of two-pronged attack from two sides by the Puntland and Somaliland militias. According to the same reports, Puntland has contracted cash-strapped Somaliland militia 300,000 dollars for the capture of Tuke Raq and its transfer to the Puntland's militia. This is what Somaliland did and handsomely paid for. This joint perceived success might encourage both parties, Somaliland and Puntland, to replicate this adventure elsewhere in the Khaatumo State, in particular in Buuhoodle, the second largest town in Khaatumo State where Somaliland failed disastrously in the past after several attempts but might entertain new hopes wit Puntland's assistance. At a time when the international community had been lately organising conferences on Somalia and committing themselves to the establishment of a new permanent government within a united federal Somalia, it is reprehensible that these two regional States that were participants in these conferences should now engage in activities that completely run counter to the Istanbul declaration. In the footsteps of other countries and notably the Americans, the British were the latest, in the person of its Minister for Africa, to pledge Britain's support for Somalia's unity and territorial integrity. This should have been an eye opener for Somaliland to see the futulity of knocking its head against a brick wall in the pursuit of a mirage that is obvious to the whole international community but clearly not themselves. The international community had threatened to take punitive actions against "spoilers" who block the roadmap towards the achievement of a stable and united Somalia that brings to an end the era of individual, clan or regional warlordism. It is time they put their money where their mouth is and pressure these two rogue regional States in no uncertain terms to get out of the Khaatumo State and mind their own business.

Ka awoow ka awoow meeye akhiro baa lo wada socda xabiibti waan kala horeynaa uun.I lost my aunt in my teenage years my heart is still heavy she was everything to me wali kama so kaban that loss laakin you have to keep going oo aad akhiradaada u shaesataa.

From my understanding fathers day/mother day etc is bid3a (innovation) It is definitely lovely to buy your dad something to appreciate him but you can always choose anytime of the year umadan ma aha khasab in aad ku dayatid

Yes I do. Alhamdulilah. I can't imagine life without my dad (oh man do I sound like a 5 years old lol)..seriously it is unimaginable

I love my dad so much. One day isn't enough to appreciate his humble personality, love, kindness, and guidance..every day I need to be thankful to ilaahay for blessing with the best of fathers. I love you aabe macaan you are my world (meh he won't be reading this hehe but gotta say it)

Rudy, aww you were in boarding school since fourth grade. Now that explains a lot ileen iskoris baad aheed

lol@ xaajixanjuf. wrong thread mr.

islam is easy. If parents make it easy for their children to make their choice and go with it then their children would have no reason to run away. Of course, islamically this is haraam. A girl can't get married without a wali period. But, not everyone is religious or follows it necessarily.

^ lol@ discussion on gay marriages. Of all the topics out there Btw, isn't Bush against gay marriages. That is probably one thing he should be praised on.

what the hell do people in the north see in Britian. that they have to base everything apon them. land area, official name, and a desperate begging for recognition. People in the North? Be a little more specific next time. It is only reer waqooyi galbeed that want recognition in the name of "somaliland".Somalis from Awdal and Khaatumo are pro-somaliweyn and don't support secessionists.

By Jana G. Pruden, Postmedia News June 16, 2012 5:37 PM EDMONTON - Edmonton police say the suspect wanted in the murders of three security guards and the attempted murder of a fourth early Friday has a bulletproof vest and a "significant" amount of money, and is likely armed with a handgun. On the second day of an intense manhunt, police have received no confirmed sightings or substantiated tips about where Travis Baumgartner, the 21-year-old man accused in the slayings of his co-workers, may be. Baumgartner was charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Michelle Shegelski, 26, Brian Ilesic, 35, and Eddie Rejano, 39. He is also charged with attempted murder in the shooting of another guard, Matthew Schuman, who remains critically injured in hospital. All four victims shot were employees of G4S Cash Solutions, an armoured car company where Baumgartner had worked since April. They were shot while delivering money to cash machines at the University of Alberta's Hub Mall early on Friday morning. Baumgartner is missing, and is now the subject of an international search. Speaking to reporters at the Edmonton police headquarters on Saturday, Supt. Bob Hassel urged any friends or acquaintances who have heard from Baumgartner to contact police or CrimeStoppers. He would not confirm that Baumgartner has been giving some of the stolen money to friends, and said police don't know whether anyone may be helping him while he is on the run. "If anybody is (helping him) we sure would hope that they would give us a call and let us know," Hassel said. "We consider him armed. We consider him dangerous." Police say they don't know whether Baumgartner is still in Edmonton, or even in the province or country. He said rural residents are being asked to look for anything unusual around their land and outbuildings. Baumgartner's mother called on her son to surrender to police late Friday. "I'm sorry that we had an argument last night and had bad words between us," the statement from Sandy Baumgartner read. "But I want you to come home and do the right thing. Let's work this out together." She asked her son to surrender without further bloodshed and promised she would stand by him. "You are not alone, Trav. Please, I love you and want to help you. Call police now and end this peacefully." Police think the dark blue Ford F-150 pickup Baumgartner is driving now has the Alberta licence plate - CAA 636 - taken from his mother's vehicle. Baumgartner is considered armed and extremely dangerous. Police advise anyone who encounters him to use extreme caution. Supt. Bob Hassel also urged the 21-year-old to take responsibility for the situation and turn himself in. Information about Baumgartner has been distributed internationally, including to border agencies, he said. "Every police organization has a copy of your photo, your vehicle and are actively supporting us in this manhunt," said Hassel.

LOL@Wiilal wanaagsan. Arrogant faduuli is the term I prefer to use. LOL..you are probably right hun. I was just comparing him with kuwa surwaalku ka dhacayo. Kan waxbaaba haraan ah buuba gartaye. LOL

^ lool wow..wilal wanaagsan baadba haysatiin ma istidhaahdeen oo wanaga ni sheegaya..halkan sidaas ma aha. Narniah, I got you walaal it was probably embarrassing. In islam it says if you wanna correct your brother or sister you do it privately. Or in this case he could have calmly told you that without causing a scene. He clearly did not know the right way to convey the right message. Nonetheless, you were not the only one who got embarrassed when your friend came out and started eating the chicken im sure he was just as embarrassed lol and it served him right.

LOL this is funny. But, seriously I did see somalis who eat the chicken sandwich and I do think that's weird cuz it is haraam right. I only eat the macfish and that even some people told me you shouldn't because they make everything with the same oil... anyways, back to your story. That guy was a good man that he actually went out of his way to tell you the chicken is haraam. But, I don't know about making a scene? why would he go that far. He could have just said it once and left.

He is so right. They are the ones who called us British Somaliland/French Somaliland/ Italian Somaliland so they can divide and conquer. Mashallah. Well done to this brother. Ilaahay somaliweyn ha ino soo celiyo. That is the only way forward. salaam

Aduunku waa labo galin. dhamaan intii aaska ka qeeb gashay iyo anagaba aan ku qudrad qaadano oo ilaahay xaqa hanawada wafajiyo. Ilaahayna ha u naxaristo marxuumka. Jana fardowsana haka waraabiyo. Ameen yaa rab. salaam
