  1. Reports suggest RRU units attacked GXJS Suldaan Cadde Gude's residence in Hargeysa.
  2. In both Oodweyne & Dabagoriyaale, where the locals are clearly supportive and sympathetic to the cause. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=231264099892311
  3. Inside the Newest Conflict in Somalia’s Long Civil War - New Lines Magazine NEWLINESMAG.COM In Las Anod, a pivotal conflict goes to the heart of the country’s long turmoil
  4. Notice how you lot went from "we could capture Xamar in no time" to "nothing is gonna happen", and being reduced to CM and HJ alliance will fight HY for Berbera. Trouble is you lack the sense to emulate Oodweyne, who hides when the going gets murky only to reappear when there is a breathing moment, and vomit his usual drivel to stink the neighourhood, but you even lack the sense to do that. You are drowning in your own bile, yet manage tookh as if atop of the mountain. One wonders what you would have done had you reached the summit.
  5. Berbera might fall to the Gaca libaax forces in the coming days.
  6. Unfortunately, they do not, and could potentially be in far worse position than other ethnic groups.
  7. Afwareen, leader of Gacan libaax resistance. Signals reer Awdal to join in.
  8. This is not looking good, nor is it going to end well for Somali Galbeed.
  9. Firdhiye, newly-elected Leader of SSC speaking after winning. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=3514998865493732
  10. I doubt it, but then again, how many fronts could Biixi's ill-equipped, ill-fed flying rangers fight? HY is mostly out joining forces with their brethren in Gacan libaax, and W Sanaag. The only foot soldiers willing to fight for Biixi are HJ, and now they find themselves fighting at active 3 fronts?
  11. This is nothing in comparison with what gov't officials are doing. Have you met with any of them: ministers, ambassadors, or people working in the offices of the PM and President? Forget about the MPs.
  12. Now, answer the bloody question about your hero, and this time, use that large muscle resting atop your head.
  13. On the front end, it might be hawked by poor locals, but according to him, the land, farms, livestock, revenues etc. has all being acquired by foreigners.
  14. From day one of joining the forum to date, you have been spinning the same yarn, which no one cares for, believes a scintilla of it, for we are privy to, more than you I might add, as to the history of your forefathers, as to their core thread, and do not need you vomiting drivel in our presence. It is putrid stinking to high heaven. The conflict brewing in the triangle is about the better Habar, and you are irrelevant till the Jamaahiirtu decide to root you out of the only bogs in Sool you have been squatting. Now, have you got an iota of intelligible commentary or analyses to share instead of filling the pages with inconsequential minutiae of no substance?
  15. In a conversation with an old mate, an investor, who just got back from the old country, mentioned this 5 billion US dollar industry has been taken over, and is now owned by a US company financed by US AID. Anyone has an insight? This article, whilst out of date, speaks to the potential in the industry. "Somalis have an incredible appetite for milk. In 2014, milk production earned about $3.3 billion ($2.7 billion from camel milk) in profits from local sales. Despite this record production, none was exported" Regenerating Somalia’s Dairy Industry | Transforming Lives | Somalia 2017-2020.USAID.GOV Fresh milk. Somalis have got it, although most of the population drinks imported powdered milk...
  16. One thought at a time, shall we? So, you are crediting him for the armed struggle, which started in 1978, against the military regime, mind you which he was a member of till 1990?
  17. Could you give specifics? Try to be objective.
  18. The general public on alert. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=934461304318532
  19. Could you think of one 'good' thing your Mujaahid has done? Pause for a second, and think about what I mean by 'good': that which bears true value, which advances humanity.
  20. If they were able to organise Local District elections from Jan - May, you do not think they could manage the Parliamentary and Presidential from Jul - Dec? There are no limitations as to the number of political parties, nor is there a term expiration. Agreed, of all the systems of governance tried, and tested, thus far there has not been any system better than Democracy with the main reason being: it has an embedded self-adjusting mechanism, where if a leader abuses, debases, and/or sulls it, the next leader could redress, as has been observed in the US with Drumpf. That is not to say it is perfect. It is actually the opposite, what you want is let the general public elect their representatives, and leaders in that if a rep., or a leader is found unwanting, it is no else's fault, but the public. The alternative, as is found in Islam, is allowing 'a3yan - technocrats and elites' lead, and govern. Alternatively, China's system of governance might be desirable, a variant of democracy with a twist, where eight political parties compete, elect their representative to the Central Body, which in turn elects the Chairman of the Central Party, the CCP, who is the Leader, or President of the nation. This ushers in stability, coherence, and sustainability. Of course there are ills to consider.
  21. There are so many mentally ill people out and about in the triangle, some even in public service.
  22. Not quite. You are blinding the commentary by injecting novice analyses, popular amongst those, who lack intimacy of the local PL politics. Let me throw you a life line, for I am in a generous mood this evening. For example, the 3 major political parties are all from Qardho, and no one seems to bat an eye in the Local District elections. KAAH is mostly popular in Sanaag & Mudug whereas Mideeye derives its greatest support in Bari, albeit enjoys nominal support in Mudug. With Nugaal, their opposition flow from the fact that Deni was their chosen candidate, and he dumped them a year into his term, forming his own team independent of AaranJaan; further, the likes of Cawad are joining the political fray a tad bit late, and wanted to be accommodated outside of the political process. RunCad is the local party in Nugaal, but enjoys some, if negligible support outside of Garowe, not even extended to Burtinle. With that being said, now do you see how flawed, lopsided your analyses was. Khatumo is a matter pending due process, and eventual configuration, where it shall be a Federal Member State. Horgale has no say in its dealings.
