  1. Ilhan's strategy is working. She won the day.

    It is better to be a lion for a day than to live like a bisad for years. She is shaking things up and is creating a cult of a personality. I say Ilhan need to keep moving. Push the limits Ilhan, without exposing yourself too openly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


  2. Old Observer, why is Ilhan going to Eritrea? I can understand she wants to visit other Horn countries before Somalia to avoid the charge of dual loyalty, but why Eritrea? The Eritrean lobby in DC is strong I guess.

    The blame lies squarely on farmajo. Id he can’t bring peace to Mogadisho he can’t do it anywhere else. He must go.

    Foreign policy is second to domestic policy. He has lost focus and is enjoying the high life. He is corrupt and contemptible. He must go.

    In any other society, the top men are held responsible and must pay the price (resign or be ousted). In Somalia, the blame will always be with some boogeyman called Alshabab because that is waxa lagu qaraabto.

     


  4. After watching the video, listening to the voice of the presenter, I couldn't help but think about the article on how to become a dictator

    HOW TO BECOME A DICTATOR

    RULE #5 Create and defeat a common enemy. 

    Dictatorships feed on wars and other external threats because these justify their existence. To attract support, the ruler must be perceived as a defender. Democratic rulers find this tactic more difficult to adopt because most wars are unpopular with voters.

    This is actually from Phychology Today website.

    This is perfectly normal  around 40 percent of gallas are amharesized. People the shiwans Wollos. Abiye was born in the 70s born to amhara women and a galla man. The same as haile sellasie gudessa half galla amhara quarter gurage. Amhara  control's  the mind  of gallas and their political will.

    Why don't the Oromos like the term Galla, I wonder.

  6. I said it before. She is going to continue. This is the beginning. There is no point in sitting behind the rows silent and irrelevant. You might as well use the limelight while you have it and create a name for yourself. For the President of the United States to be uttering her name and attacking her rounds up the cruel irony. The little refugee Somali girl is that powerful because she refused to stay quiet or be dismissed.

    Well done Ilhan!!!!
