Don't drag down Puntland with you lot. PLers are still there, "maamul gobaleedyada", they would have said Puntland if it is Puntland. Come with facts not fiction. Trying to compare a place that has teachers from around the Middle East including Turks with Southern Somalia... That is not good. The system is 4.5 based not on achievements, I do acknowledge that.

Sony Pictures is seeking Somalis in Minneapolis to appear in a new Tom Hanks movie, “Capt. Phillips.” Auditions will be held Saturday from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Brian Coyle Center. The casting call is for black actors or non-actors, preferably born in Africa. The roles are for men ages 15 to 45, women ages 20 to 30, and boys ages 7 to 10. Those auditioning should bring a current photo, if available. Photos will not be returned. Hanks is slated to play the lead of Richard Phillips, a cargo ship captain held hostage by Somali pirates for several days in 2009. Phillips eventually was rescued when a Navy sharpshooter picked off three of the pirates. Minneapolis was chosen for auditions because of its large Somali population. – Associated Press http://blog.chron.com/celebritybuzz/2011/11/tom-hanks-desperately-seeking-somalis/ Hell yeah!

People reading this can obviously see the backward momentum of Somaliland supporters who have expressed support for Al-Shabaab's actions. At least you exposed your true colours.

Dismissing facts and investigative reporting as "nonsense" and onomatopoeic words is just plain pathetic. I believe we should discuss this serious matter as it is a threat to the on-going stabilisation of Somalia, we must not get backtracked by illegal activities that could hurt people's lives and aid terrorists.

Could Al-Shabaab gain from illegal marketing of weapons or is this just another sign of Somaliland's ever so more showing of social decay? I don't know, I'm just asking.. We have witnessed for the past few weeks the resurgence of militant groups in the region made up of a single clan entity and the fact that Al-Shabaab's leader and deputy leader hail from the region has been no secret let alone the fact that a Somaliland minister's son is a prominent commander in the terrorist group. This begs to ask the question, should the international community not be focused more on this province which seems to have a track record of producing the most prominent militants and terrorist from throughout East Africa? That's the question we should all be asking ourselves. http://www.somaliareport.com/index.php/post/1920/Somalilands_Booming_Arms_Business For the last twenty years, Somaliland has been enjoying far more stability and peace than southern Somalia, but that doesn't mean you can't get your hands on some serious hardware if you are inclined toward mayhem. Hargeisa's densely populated and labyrinthine arms market of Irtoogte, which means Sky-Shooter, offers everything from bombs to machine guns. As you enter the market, the competitive brokers scurry and jog alongside, offering good deals on whatever you need. The babble of voices rises everywhere as buyers, sellers and brokers haggle. Arms seller Mohamed Ahmed sits among a group of men in an iron shack. He is the main dealer of AK-47s, and most of the men working in the market are subordinate to him. Every few minutes his mobile rings with queries about his prices. Mohamed was a taxi driver seven years ago. Now he is a wealthy man. In front of the other men, his answers are tight and short. It is only when he motions me outside that he begins to open up. "This place is risky for journalists....if they got to know that you are a journalist you will be in" he says as we walk through the market before arriving at a tea shop. He silently opens a room next to the shop, and we enter into a gun nut's heaven. AK-47s and Russian pistols line the walls. "The government is aware of this business, but they don't know how it goes" he says. "We buy from those who are tired of the gun, and sell to those who want one. It's a free market." "We mostly sell three types of AK-47, and two types of pistol, the Tata and another one locally known Dhabannacas"; he adds. Somaliland suffered attacks by the al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabaab in 2008, which hit the presidential palace, United Nation Development Program offices, and offices for the Ethiopian government. The attack killed twenty eight people and injured forty others, and was carried out by the first known American suicide bomber, Shirwa Ahmed from Minneapolis. Since then, the Somaliland government imposed a law against terrorism and began to register arms. The law also said that anyone who wants to buy a gun must register with the police. However, Mohamed said the government and police don’t get involved. "We sell arms to anyone, but sometimes we ask the buyer to come with someone we know" he says. "We are not police ... it is not our job to register the arms." "We buy the arms from local owners ... there are no new arms coming to the market" he says. "We mostly sell old arms. When Somalia's government collapsed in the 90s, people looted all the military equipment." While Mohamed is adamant that guns are not coming in from outside, other dealers say that weapons come in from southern Somalia. There are suspicions that weapons are making their way in from Yemen and Eritrea. The best-selling items are the four types of Russian-made AK-47. Mohamed said the prices run from $500 to $850 for the newest model, known locally as Daba-laab. Handguns go from $1000 to $1300. The Hargeisa market is more expensive than Mogadishu, where you can buy a brand-new pistol for almost half the price, and the new Kalashnikov comes in at least $50 cheaper. "Business is good" says another arms dealer, speaking on condition of anonymity."If you buy three pistols, you can sell them again in hours." While the arms dealers are pleased with themselves and their business, residents are concerned that the government is doing nothing to curb the deadly trade. According to a newspaper editor, who wished to remain anonymous, the police and intelligence community are involved in the trade. "Some of the arms in the market are Somaliland army equipment, and they also sell their ammunition" he says None of the arms dealers would name the people they worked with or discuss their customers. Somalia Report repeatedly attempted to contact the appropriate government ministries and police officials, but we were repeatedly refused comment. It is common to see armed civilians walking the streets of Hargeisa, Many of them come from rural areas to sell their guns in the market. Ali Warsame is a herdsman who came to sell his AK-47 to feed his family and livestock. A hard drought hit the countryside, and people and animals are dying, so I am came to sell my gun to buy food and water"; he says. Arms trader Mohamoud Aw Jama said many people were selling their weapons in face of the drought. He says the main clients are business people and companies, which control their own security. One businessman, who didn’t want to be named, said he say no problem in the arms trade. "The market is not a big deal" he says. "Not everyone can afford to buy guns as it is expensive, so only business people use the market." Asked if al-Shabaab members can get arms from the market - as many analysts have warned - to carry out attacks in the city, he says he believes the group doesn't shop there for fear of coming under suspicion.

No I have not but I've never been to the US and I can guarantee you both systems uphold essential human rights. Look, I'm kidding but when you start playing rough in other people's backyards they will tell you to behave or face the consequences, you chose the consequences.

Google Translate Is aid that arrived to Somalia insufficient, especially from the Arab and Islamic countries? Aid was enough and came in appropriate time. Is this sufficient relief operations alone to move to a better Somalia .. Or that it will continue to need the support of a political solution to eliminate the successive crisis? There is no political crisis in Somalia, but we have a humanitarian crisis coincides with the security crisis. The problem of young militants who supported al-Qaeda is a problem we share with other countries and crisis the humanitarian and security are linked to some.

^^ Very optimisitc, Kenya can't hold on to a few villages if Al-Shabaab engaged with them let alone a city the size of Kismayo. Kismayo should be the last city to be liberated like Sirte. Kenya should cut off Kismayo from the surrounding cities until TFG has the same forces it had in 2007.
