Waa muruga aad u xun. Inay Xabashi sidan yeelaan waan ka filaa. Laakiin labada murugo waxa weeye in Soomaali dadkoodi gaal iyo amxaaro u soo raacaan, oo ay debeetana dadkooda xabashida la xasuuqaan. Inkaari idinku dhacday wixii gaal iyo xabashi soo raacay ! Who needs enemies with countrymen like that.

Recently I have been asked a number of profound questions, including this one you have posed here, where I have found myself unable to give a definitive answer either way. I will, at some point, need to sit down and seriously work through my 'life-philosophy'. I will let you know when I have done that

I agree with you. Well said.

Its the work of cowards.

Yes XX. Its one of the most disgusting and enraging things I have ever witnessed. It is realky a form of domestic abuse. Where the man will instigate an argument or debate knowing inuu afka-hadalka kaga adagyahay. For the woman to the losse the debate or be silenced, again and again. Apparently some gain satisfaction out of that. Perverse, really.

Then hooyo started the grounding business, blimey, sometimes a dhirbaaxo would've sufficed, man. Lol @ grounding and talking. And did it all work, was it effective ?

I don't like bullies and those who lash out at little kids but let's face it - dharbaxo has its uses. Yes. A level of discipline is good for children. Old fashioned way has its advantages but there should be limits.

She is heartless and a coward. She is hitting a baby because that makes her feel strong and powerfil; most likely she is beaten by her husband or was beaten as a child. Waa axmaqad... but i have seen much much worse than that, this is nothin in comparison. Lets not pretend Somali Parents dont excessively beat their children.

A warning to all my Somalis. Be carefull for what you write online. Particularly abour race issues or even political issues.You might just end up in jail. This goes out especially to those who live in the UK and as in Somalinet make strong statements about particular ethnic groups. www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-17515992 http://news.sky.com/home/uk-news/article/16187397

If true this could potentially spare a lot of Somali lives.

The evidence is there, the facts are undeniable, the reality is well-known. How can anyone justify supporting Ethiopia or inviting them into our country or supporting their invasion ?? One must be crazy to do so - utterly insane. Ethiopia: Army Commits Executions, Torture, and Rape in Somali Region In its battle against rebels in eastern Ethiopia's Somali Region, Ethiopia's army has subjected civilians to executions, torture, and rape, Human Rights Watch said in a new report released today. The widespread violence, part of a vicious counterinsurgency campaign that amounts to war crimes and crimes against humanity, has contributed to a looming humanitarian crisis, threatening the survival of thousands of ethnic Somali nomads. The 130-page report "Collective Punishment: War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity in the Somali Regional State," documents a dramatic rise in unchecked violence against civilians since June 2007, when the Ethiopian army launched a counterinsurgency campaign against rebels who attacked a Chinese-run oil installation. The Human Rights Watch report provides the first in-depth look at the patterns of abuse in a conflict that remains virtually unknown because of severe restrictions imposed by the Ethiopian government. "The Ethiopian army's answer to the rebels has been to viciously attack civilians in the Somali Region," said Georgette Gagnon, Africa director at Human Rights Watch. "These widespread and systematic atrocities amount to crimes against humanity. Yet Ethiopia’s major donors, Washington, London and Brussels, seem to be maintaining a conspiracy of silence around the crimes."
