Stop recycling old news. The Usual "Oromo became greedy, and now got nothing"is old news. We did not ask you about the grain. The real news: Nine members of the opposition arrested. They were celebrating their earlier freedom when arrested. Abdi Illey arrest dozens of elders and otherin Jigjiga for slogans thrown in the city. EPRDF deadlocked for the second week, Ethiopian foreign partners are worried.

OO says, " He has opened business for Killil" That is not true. Hundreds of businesses had left Jijiga for the last two years. I was just talking to yesterday a guy who spent 150,000 for equipment to set up five star restaurant and after six months the landlord and the local enforcers forced him to abandon and take his equipment i the middle of the night. No one is going there today. The so called oil is long way to go, besides, we can not allow the Tigray to make money from occupied territory. We will get the oil when you leave the land. We should never allow to enrich the TPLF dictatorship. Also, we know that the locals will not see one penny of the money. Both the ONlf and Oromo should never allow that oil to to be stolen. Period.

It is bad move by the American consulate. They can not humiliate a former Somali president like that. Farmaajo should tell the Americans that they can not humiliate Somalia like that or he is another American lab dog.

OO, I am nor in a rush. The Ethiopian collapse will come. and I am willing to wait. I hope my people will be in power in Somalia when that collapse comes. The Oromo wave will come for good or bad. Somali president is four years and everyone knows this president will finish his term regardless of the Mogadishu games. Kenya is democratic and stable, Uganda 's dictatorship is for life, Djibouti will be fine. Sudan is stable . The only place where both regime change and regime collapse is expected is Ethiopia, so let us discuss the best and worst scenarios of the old empire.

Tilamook, You asked OO about options and he goes to his usual Sudan, Egypt and UAE. Non of the railways and bridges in Yemen is even in the pipes. War is raging in Yemen and and who knows what would happen in the middle east. others asked him about the Tigray options in Ethiopia and he talks about Somali issue that he does not anything. He thinks meddling and division among Somalis will buy him time. What he doesn't get is people do not like those who pretend to be your brothers or friends. THere are nations who are rivals, with hostile history yet living side by side while each one is watching his back. Turkey and Greece had over million casualty in the first world war yet, they are neighbors today while both are NATO members. No Greece will dare to interfere with Turkey or vice versa. The greeks hate the Turks but thy accept and can not do anything about Turkey. We do not like those that we have historical rivalry and bad history to interfere and advice our interest. We are not that stupid. We are neighbors and we accept co-existence and peace, just like the Turks accept the Greeks. As we speak there is zero trade between us and the borders are closed. Only a fool or a simple minded separatist, a tribal chauvinist who is looking for power or a criminals will accommodate Ethiopia or the take advice and help from Ethiopia. Do not waste your time , we are nomads who are born and will always e free from tyranny unlike the Ethiopians who are born to enslave one another. If you want to discuss something , tell how Ethiopia could survive another decade . Tell us how you intend to keep the status quo.

OO says, "They are not even there yet". Well , it has been months . When are they going to be there?. The four tribes that are deliberating could vote on the majority vote if they were democratic. We know the TPLF, Southern People are allies and they could get some vote from the Amhra, yet the issue is not about vote. It is about convincing the Tigray to give power and to Oromo. The Muslims: Somalis, Afar and western Oromo are powerless.

I rarely visit facebook. This is from Subulaha News. They report a lot about Addis and Jijiga, because they have people on the ground. Unlike you they tell us what is going on.

Maakhiri, the UK ambassador said that there is no government in Ethiopia. The Tigray military and intelligence are running the country for months. The Tigray might not like Amhara since they are always the higher class of the food chain, yet without allying with Amhara they might not survive. Since his appointment, Demeke Mekonnen has always been the backup plan for the Tigray. They want him to lead Ethiopia until the election, but the Oromo have always rejected. Either the Tigray will give up power or implosion.

I think the headline is probably wrong. Ninkani waa nin reer Hargeisa ah oo Duriyada ka mid noqday, waxa uu u hadlayaa sidii nin ' suldaanka tolkii ah. Case cloed. The problem is every thread is hijacked by this Tigray fool called OO. Now he is talking about ahmed Guray and issues that he does not know. Menelik reached Harar in 1887, there were no Tigray in Zaylac or somali territories. We haven't seen any Tigray before 1991, and there were no Tigray even in Dire Dawa and even Addis. When the Tigray nomads arrived Addis, they were not even speaking Amharic the local language. The Tigray who had any education could be counted in one hand, now keep teaching the separatist kids and others how Tigray were like Jews who were everywhere. I for one won't by buying, but please stop disturbing my tranquility. Holac baa eeda oo dhan iska leh markuu nagu soo daayey , mid aan xishonayn oo waxa uu doono odhanaya. SAyidku Ethipian ayuu ahaa ayuu shalay lahaa, maantana Ahmed Guray ayaa Axmaar ahaa. Waar ilayn anagaa wax aragnay.

Sarkozy, Qaddafi and the myth of Libya’s ‘humanitarian’ war He who laughs last laughs better, according to an Italian proverb that applies very well to the case of Nicolas Sarkozy, the former French president who joined the war in Libya to eliminate Muammar Qaddafi and a few months later also helped to bring down Silvio Berlusconi. That culminated in a famous meeting between Sarkozy and Angela Merkel at which the two used sarcasm toward Italy and laughed at Berlusconi by undermining his credibility. Quite a few, therefore, smiled in Milan and Rome when the French police detained Sarkozy for questioning over allegations that he was paid 50 million euros by the Libyan regime to finance his 2007 presidential campaign. No one in Italy ever believed the French fairytale narrative of the “humanitarian” war in Libya, which France said was “necessary to bring democracy.” Everyone knew that one of Paris’s objectives was to replace the Italians in the near monopoly of exploitation of the Libyan gas and oil fields, and to eliminate Rome’s residual influence in the Mediterranean area. Berlusconi was against the war, but he was worn down by a press campaign orchestrated by the left that accused him of having paid a 17-year-old Moroccan dancer for sex (he was convicted by a court, and later acquitted on appeal) and of being too friendly with “Arab tyrants” such as Qaddafi. The premier surrendered to international pressure and the Italian left. The only Italian party that was vehemently opposed to the war in Libya was the Northern League, which said Italy was not a French colony and the war would destabilize Africa and the Mediterranean and bring millions of illegal migrants into Italy — as indeed happened. Libya was the leading oil supplier and the third-biggest gas supplier to Italy and it was clear to everyone that throwing the country into chaos would not be in Rome’s interest, but anyone who wrote about it was immediately accused of being a “friend of the tyrant.” Then, in January 2016, “Foreign Policy Journal” began to shed light on the role of Barack Obama in the Libyan crisis, and that of his secretary of state, Hillary Clinton. One of the 3,000 Clinton emails released by the State Department revealed an international plot to overthrow Qaddafi in order to obtain access to Libyan oil. The email, titled “France’s client and Qaddafi’s gold,” was sent to Clinton by her unofficial adviser Sydney Blumenthal. Even more explicit and full of indiscretions and twists is the book “Sarkozy-Qaddafi, the Secret Story,” published in France at the end of 2017, which gave rise to the police investigation that led to Sarkozy. Journalists Fabrice Arfi and Karl Laske reconstruct the love-hate story between Sarkozy and Qaddafi in 400 pages full of documents, talk about tens of millions of dollars, suitcases full of money transported from Tripoli to Paris, mysteriously disappeared audio recordings, and the strong links between Sarkozy and Qatar. The final chapter of the book is straightforward: “The war in Libya was started on the basis of false information and ends with a mystery: Who killed Qaddafi?” The authors suggest the French track and list various sources: First the Italian newspaper “Corriere della Sera,” which wrote: “In Western diplomatic circles in Libya the most widespread theory is that, if some secret services are involved, then it is certainly the French ... the fact that Paris wanted to eliminate the colonel was an open secret.” Former Libyan minister Mahmoud Jibril also claims: “It was a foreign agent who killed Qaddafi,” and Rami El-Obeidi, coordinator of the external information services of the National Transitional Council, tells the authors that “it was French agents who killed Qaddafi.” We will never know the full truth, but one thing is now certain: Sarkozy’s “democratic war” was a huge and disastrous lie that harmed both Arab countries and Europe.

Qaniinyooyin Hoose ayaa jira. Walee waa rageedi.

Mr. Bedel waa raggii Ingriisku hadalka u daayey. The Title of the book was " Ina Cabdile Hassan Ma Sheekh Buu Ahaa" a lot of SNM boys will read this book and call the great darwiish as Kafr. This so called Minister does not belong to lead a cultural ministry. He must be fired. Long live Mr. Bedel. Waar ninka Af-Soomaaligiisu wanaagsanaa.

If that is the case, then why with the Saudis they are plotting a war against Iran. My calculation is if a war comes in the Persian Gulf , it will definitely reach UAE. THey trying to use America but this time they will reach them. I have no doubt about that.

I heard that the ruler of Abu Dhabi is different than this Maniac Mohamed Bin Zayed. I hope there could be some changes with this leadership. They are in that GDP zone for now but they could not stay there. Their oil monopoly will diminish as years go by, America will be net oil producer, and China might not buy from them , so let them drink the oil. Even richer nations like Switzerland will be out of the 30 club. AS we grow they will go down.

It is totally fake. Siyaad Barre was secular just like his contemporaries. Saddam, Qadafi, Assad, Mubaarak and all those leaders were secular and communist, but never became Christian. Saddam became more religious for the later years. Siyaad Barre was not more dictator than others. In late seventies he built the largest Mosque in Somalia ( Massajidka Isbahaysiga) and in early eighties introduced calling of the five prayers (Aadaanka Salaada) from Radio Mogadishu. Also in those years, tens of thousands of Somalis who were Muslims never prayed. yet the were genuine Muslims with deep tradition. It is a long story, but we know how the SNM started the so called " Shahada on the flag" or how the so called Mujaahidiin thing started. It was a Saudi project to fight Russian occupation in Afghanistan and the among the early founders of SNM there were men who were well connected to the Saudis. Eventually, the Saudis convinced Siyaad Barre to get rid of the communist. IT was a long struggle between Cali Samatar a real communist and Saleebaan Dafle, an intelligence officer connected with the SAudis, and the later won the battle. Anyway, in the Islamic tradition, unless the person proclaim openly his apstacy and leaving of Islam, it is illegal to call him Kafir. Leave the man in his grave. Allah knows what is in his heart and he will answer. Shaqo kale yeesha. OO, SSDF was aa national movement that wanted to replace Siyaad Baree, but SNM was regional. THe SSDF fought from Goryo Awl five miles from Borama to Mudug Dollow and Bay. THe SNM were intended to dismember the country although some were genuine rebels who wanted to replace Siyaad Barre. ONe was national while the other one was regional. Ethiopia knew early that SNM was separatist movement. YOu were probably low level officer or young then, but even the international media debated how Russia wanted to setup a pro Ethiopian regime in the north and South Sudan. I myself and everyone else knew that SNM was about separation. The SOmali leaders knew and everyone knew it. Since the dismemberment was more serious than regime change Ethiopia prefered SNM . When C/laahi Yusuf was arrested the SSDF was getting the best weapons from Libya, and Yemen. So, please stop telling our own history. we know because we were their.

I think the good professor is mistaken. There were no biometric registry or anything similar. Even children voted. When told about the Somali state and their authority over Berbera, he said, " Xagay Joogtaa Somaalida aad sheegayso, awoodse ma leedahay". I am glad everyone in Somaliland is pointing out about power not legitimacy or sovereignty. That means the Somali state must concentrate building peace and power. Since everyone is saying, " Awood ma leh , Xagay Xukunta" then the Somali state must get the power to dominate and bring everyone using that perceived power. Finally, the good professor just came out of self exile or hypernation which means Muuse Biixi must have called him and asked him for help. Biixi is ina mess both economically and diplomatically. His mediocre ministers could not resolve financial and currency issues while his spokesman who wrote tribally motivated books to discredit Sayid Mohamed C. Hassan is inflaming both Hargeisa and Laascaanood. Who knows,? there could be a cabinet shuffle soon and Samatar might be getting a new life line.

It will difficult to face the Shia, but the sabre rattling will continue. The so called threat from Iran is making America rich . The reckless Bin Salmaan kid giving away $400 billion in ten years. America will be happy to use Iran for their cash cow without firing a bullet. It is the biggest scam within the American lobby network. In the meantime , we must get out of the Arab league. It is very dangerous tribal club that will only hurt us. WE should keep our distance.

OO, So far you did not say anything , other the usual Oromo is panicking. Who is the next guy. Time is running out. The opposition is burining things i Oromia every day.

Tallaabo, I hate UAE but not Somaliland. I might not like the Jeegaan administration, but I do not hate the people. The UAE is really very dangerous. They are working for the colonial powers. Two days ago, Turkey took over Afrin without huge damage and transferred the town to the rightful owners the Syria. THe UAE foreign minister said, " Turkey is disrespecting interfering Arab countries". They were the ones who armed the opposition to topple Assad of Syria, yet now that Turkey is clearing the land for the refugee to settle back the land they are attacking Turkey. They are dividing Yemen , Calling Djibouti " Xayawaan", preparing war with Iran , attacking Somalia, Tunisia, and many other Muslim countries. Money cannot buy everything. I agree with OLd O on this. OLd empires will decline no doubt. The oil money will be done sooner than you think. IMagine, why would a Somali, Yemeni, Sudanese or An African businessman would go to Dubai. They do not manufacturing anything, everything comes from China or other places. WE would go to China and other places and bring home directly with our own ports. Banking and other finacial institutions would be created in Nairobi, Mogadishu and Addis , if the later survives the ORomo revolution. Dubai will be done. THey keep calling for war and destruction, and their wish will come. The next gulf war will center in Dubai. THe last want destroyed historical cities like Baghdad , Aleppo and Adden. The next one will decimate Dubai and Abu Dubai. I have no doubt about that. If the Saudis do not change their behaviour, the " Fitna" might reach first in Riyadh and Jeddah, and finally the holy land (Makkah and Medina). The Arab nations are the only group of leaders who will do whatever it takes to stay in power and kill their own people regardless of the cost. .Sooner or later they will pay for their crimes.

Big population , economic growth and technological transformation have lifted many countries. Imagine in the year 2000, China had little over a trillion GDP. in 2010, it reached almost five trillion and in 2017 , it is 11.9 trillion. That means it doubled within seven years. In 2030, China is predicted to reach 35 trillion. Artificial countries like UAE might not even reach to be a state in 2030. They are trying to chew more than they could swallow and eventually these misadventures will catch up to them. They are the worst MUslim hypocrite the world have even seen. Out of the nine million population, only 10% is Emirati citizens. Sooner or later that population will demand freedom and basic rights which could engulf the despots. If another war comes in the gulf led by Mike Pompeo , the neocons and Trump, UAE will be the first country to be burned by Iran and others. Be careful for what you wish.

got it. Thanks.
