  1. The secret to loot was passed among clans. Lacagta tuugada waa in beeshu isku sheegtaa. THere are a lot of sjy scarapprs going up in Jigjiga lately thanks to the fraud among a group of people led by probably Mr. Khadar Jigre. None of the so called meals reached those who need. Imagine a nation of thieves. Musuq Maasuq Soomali waa meheradeedi. WE want them presecuted according to law. I can assure 99% of them are greedy D block and HAG anarchists. The two evil clans that destroyed Somalia.
  2. The NGO that financed was there too, it seems. I want to know how much is wasted. Do you where is that?
  3. Ah, fursaduhu badanaa. The old empire of rags, Ethiopia, must die. If I were Mustafe Cagjar, I would recruit 25,000 Liyu force and control the Somali borders and prepare for the new maps of Ethiopia. Just declare that the current system of the guy sitting in Menelik palace is unsustainable, and demand a new arrangement. If the Mogadishu quagmire ends, we could even annex Somali Galbeed. Koox baa lahayd waan go'aynaa, anaguna waxaan rabnaa Soomali Galbeed in aan la soo noqono. Aduun waa kala maan. THe Amhara are unable to fight the landlocked TPLF, and today somewhere I read that their, " only hope is for Eritrea to save them' from the so called Wayaane. These Amhara want others to die for them. No way.
  4. Che, people are divided by clan lines. The so called parties are just a name only. They don't vote or join their parties , but their clans . Even those starving wouldn't dare to go against their clan party to protest and demand changes.. Furthermore, the ruling class go beyond logic to make the contest as much tribal as possible. When they arrest people, they make sure those arrested belong to the the wrong tribe including the women. Only Abdi Iley and Muuse Biixi are the only people who arrest Somali women and keep them in jail for weeks and moths just because they disagreed with him. Regardless of the election the clan thing is irreversible. No one from Goljano or Jigjiga yar would dare to go to the other side of the river. The soldiers seem to be agitating for blood especially when they confront the opposition, and they don't mind running over women with their jeeps. couple of hundred people protest and 100 are wounded and six are dead, what that tells you. These are exactly like the Liyu police of Abdi Iley.
  5. Abiy Ahmed administration has barred their chest. The information minister of Ethiopia called the citizens to take arms to defend Ethiopia. He said, " Our historical enemies" had joined the war. by that he means Somalia. He didn't say HSM regime, he didn't accuse the current leadership. He openly said our historical enemies. I was one of those who believed the Oromo brotherhood and historical connections, but wise and knowledgeable people said the Amhara highlander was always hiding behind the Oromo. A well known former Somali general said" Humburo Libaax bay soo sida" which means the shark is behind the Dolphins. In this war it seems the TPLF is trying to recover the land within their borders like Rayo and Walaqat, and no Somali should die defending the filthy genocidal Amhara.
  6. For the last 100 days, we all have been watching president Hassan Sheikh in action or missing in action for certain serious matters. For those who oppose him, almost everything he had touched resulted in disaster, while others see a mixed bag of good and bad moves. During his term as the leading opposition to Farmaajo regime, HSM was not only unhinged, but immersed himself to respond on every move Farmaajo and company did. Presidents or those who were in power before should always measure their statements for they could find themselves in the same situation. The YouTube archives are full of his current and former statements contradicting each other on every major issue. Many supporters of the former regime seem to be delighted about the political stumbles and the contradictions of HSM. Within 100 days, a major war had exploded between Al-shabaab and Ethiopia, a well known Mogadishu hotel was bombed and stormed by the terrorists while no one has confirmed even the death of the men who entered the hotel. Emergency efforts to engage the terrorists and save the civilians took almost over two hours. Ethiopian military leaders had landed in Garoowe, Baidoa and Hiiraan without consulting the national government. Targeted killings and assassinations are back not only in Mogadish, but other southern towns like Marka and Baidoa. Although targeted killings and hotel bombings were reduced in major ways during Farmaajo government, in scheme of things in Mogadishu, these insecurities are expected to happen regardless of which government is in power, because, the principle causes of these insecurities still exist . Fahad Yassin had deployed many under cover officer in the streets to reduce hit and run targeted killings, but their base, safe houses and operations including tax collections and capacity is intact, as always during Farmaajo years and now. In this article my focus is not about Mogadishu or the stumbles of Hassan Sheikh, but how we the outsiders who comment and analyze the moves of the president and the prime minister. We are all jumping up and down about what we perceive to be the wrong political moves or other pronouncements of the regime, especially in regard to the neighboring countries like Ethiopia and Kenya.. Other than motion pictures and few statements from the government and others, we don't have any real grasp of what are the foreign policies of the HSM''s regime or what was discussed with foreign leaders. In this country, and even around the world today, major things are done behind the scene. Furthermore, elected leaders like the president has the privilege of conducting their own foreign policy without the interference of the public or others. Many of us, including me, are blindsided by our regional biases, our loyalties to the last regime or our antipathy of the current president and those he surrounded himself with. Many had already concluded HSM as nothing but a corrupt oligarch using his office to enrich himself and his backers, while others consider Farmaajo as saint who is infallible just like the Ayatullahs of Iran. Yet, the logic and the truth are in the grey area which is difficult to measure if you have'nt already made your mind. Personally, sometimes I try to measure things and evaluate my positions. In fact, the biggest beef I and many others have with president HSM is his foreigner policy. We thought His trip to Egypt and involvement of the Nile river quarrel was unnecessary and reckless. A neutral foreign policy or zero problems with neighbors would be the right approach , so we thought, But, despite what we see or think, leaders have more in depth information and political goals that is sometimes difficult to understand with the naked eye. in other words, HSM is aware like most of us about these Nile river conflicts or the geopolitical issues of the region. His trip to Egypt and other places are calculated political strategy that differ from the Farmaajo administration. While the Farmaajo and Abiy Ahmed relationship eliminated the Addis Ababa Hajj for many regional leaders, it didn't help much to defeat Al-shbaab or enhance national security. HSM might have seen a different Ethiopia than the one Farmaajo courted four or five years ago. The Ethiopia of 2022/2023 is totally different than the Ethiopia of 2018. The country has been weakened by real civil. The real civil war we had in Somalia was from 1988-1994. After that period, what we had was nothing but tribal greed, petrol dollar fueled Islamic movements, foreign meddling and disfunction. In Ethiopia, hundreds of civilians are killed by ethnic militia almost daily. Unarmed civilians are killed within towns, roadways and villages, some even burned alive. The federal government doesn't have any power to intervene or bring peace to the locals. Abiy Ahmed had failed in almost everything he touches. He could not win wars to the end, and couldn't bring peace to end the war. At the moment he is toothless tiger. And don't even try to read their blogs where genocide and exterminations are pronounced openly. If the president of the republic decides to change the policy of the former government, he has every right to do so. We should know that elections have consequences . Being a leader means making tough decisions and owning the responsibilities. HSM had decided to have strong relationships with many nations that Ethiopia might dislike for their own reasons. That doesn't mean he hates Abiy or doesn't desire good relationship with Ethiopia. While we might disagree with him , we shouldn't condone or welcome the disastrous moves of regional leaders to make the Hajj to Addis. Laftagareen have every right to fear and prevent the land grabbing policies of HAG politicians in Lower Shabbelle, but he shouldn't undermine the foreign policy of the national government. He should be condemned as such. When Al-shbaab attacked Ethiopia few weeks , we were all shocked. No one could exactly pin point the main reasons of this attack. I thought it was a campaign to undermine Abiy or move the extremists from JUbbaland to Ethiopia proper. Others had pointed to different directions. Yet, one of the most intriguing issue about that border was the way Al-shbaab commanders forsaken those young Somali kids to the slaughter house. Don't get me wrong those foot soldiers have only themselves to blame for their adventures of joining a murderous movement, but the majority of these are poor country side kids looking a meal and a shelter. As soon as they reached the Ethiopian side of the base , the commanders have burned all the trucks that brought the foot soldiers including the motorbikes during the night. When the war concluded, the foot soldiers were unable to even evacuate their wounded comrades. They were either dead or captured. The intension was to push them inside without even viable logistics. If you ask the criminal leaders of Al-shbaab, they would quote Tariq Bin Zayd who burned his boats while conquering Andalusia. There is nothing to compare here with Tariq Zayd, other than make a headline for their Ethiopian incursion. Prime minister Hamza Barre called those young men who stormed AlHayat hotel as the childeren of "{ Jahanaba) hell, but I would rather focus on the crime bosses who lead these kids. Some are even promoted as ministers while those they used as foot soldiers used as firewood. What I am getting is that we have no real intelligence to evaluate or have access for internal government deliberations, as such , those who have the responsibility to govern must make their call for better or worse. Thus HSM must be given the opportunity to flow his designs. If he thinks joining the western led group of Kenya, Egypt and others, so be it. If he thinks Abiy Ahmed led Ethiopia is a corrupt and outdated fake dictatorship that should be avoided , he has every right. Besides, the ugly Amhara will not stop until they are crushed for good, and if HSM thinks to avoid that ugly quarrel , we should support him. Finally, I have come to the conclusion that we can't pick and choose the foreign policies of the national government, and we can't condone the ugly moves of the regional leaders to cozy up with the military leaders of the dying empire that can't even defeat a landlocked TPLF. Ethiopia doesn't have any capacity to threaten Somalia today. During the border war, most of the fighting was between Somalis ( Al-shbaab and Liyu police ). And one more thing. Mustafe Cagjar should stop worrying about the highlander wars in Ethiopia and must seal his region from the Oromo and Afar. He should stop sending soldiers to north and defend his own region. As our friend Khadaafi used to say, let the empire destroy itself and free our people.
  7. I am not 100% sure , but this fellow Harun Maruf is probably looking a job to report for those NGO's who are trying to safe the earth or humanity. It could be a fake news. Here is why. First, Since this being Somalia and this kind of trade is usually involved outlaws and others it can't be organized well. What I mean is , what are the chances of seeing a well organed convoy of d double hauling trucks in any Somali highway? the trucks are well loaded and balanced. They just looked like the logging trucks in Kenya or other African country. Second, if you look the electric wires beside the highway, they are all elevated in legal proper manner. I am assuming that there are no electric wires running beside the highway in Afgooye road. Folks I need prove.
  8. Every time he opens his mouth he is probably embarrassing her. So, She is banishing him to the killings fields of Mogadishu. I would have dome the same thing. A senior adviser? for what? If I were him I would stick around twin cities. Because he could be targeted by Al-shbaab and become one of those statistics in Mogadishu.
  9. In the blood. We might not like C C/shakuur because of his antics as am opposition, but so far there is no proof or evidence he looted anything. Our OG friends are spreading false or unproven allegations. One of them told me that president HSM was told that Ina C/shakuur crimes were not just corruption , but open looting of draught resources. Yet when I look those who are appointed as the gate keepers of the relieve effort, I see nothing but corruption and nepotism. The chair of relieve emergency management is a member of HSM clan family and the deputy is a cousin of premier Hamsa. They want to keep the corruption and the looting among family members. At the end C/shakuur isn't member of Dump Jadiid and definitely not a yes man. Besides, how many things does this Faqi guy has to manage. He is the minister of interior, federal affaires and reconciliation. Now he is in charge draught relief. Now we know who are " Milkiilayaasha Dawlada". Folks, Ina C/shakuur might be a loud mouth guy , but he is outsider. In fact, the country might need his opposition to Dump Jadiid. We need him to check these corrupt oligarchs.
  10. By the way this is the third village to fall since last year. Every time the local leaders were lied to and told that the Somali state will get back. There were even proposals to bring back the the displaced people back to those villages. It was bad leadership both from the locals and Somali region. Last year, I was one of those who suggested a peaceful compromise the would keep the Somali residents in their villages under the Canfar state while having self rule until a referendum takes place. Others said, they will not allow one inch of Somali territory to Canfar. Remember, it was Abdi Illey who gave these villages to Canfar in 2014. Now hundreds died and thousands displaced while those leaders already decided to hand the land to Canfar. That is really sad.
  11. This war is lopsided. The Canfar militia has the full support of the Cafar state militia and the full power of the "Kililka Afraad". The Liyu police had left the scene long ago after secret agreement was reached between Mustafe Cagjar, Abiy and Awal Arba the Canfar state leader. False Facebook propaganda by the diaspora members kept showing us poor nomads from Western Siti region with guns showing off their warlike statements and how ready they are to crush the Canfar. How could a poor Somali nomads with few guns and no mechanized weapons defeat the Canfar which has most of Ethiopia's fire power?. Dadka shacabka ee masaakiinta been baa loo sheegay waana la khiyaameeyey. Also, as Duufaan mentioned the policy of Omar Geele is also hurting the locals.What is unacceptable is why Canfar is pushing out the civilian population? If they takeover the towns they could rule the residents. One major reason is Ethiopia is probably is going to disintegrate after Abiy and every group is trying to make ethnically clean their regions from others. The Oromo is doing the same thing, yet the Amhara are moving in mass to the Somali region and Jigjiga,
  12. Why would a Somali governor needs to congratulate a foreign leader? Shaqo ayey waayeen.
  13. Don't you get tired beating a dead horse? Why you don't you tell us all the crimes that took place after the death Marxuum Siyaad Barre? Get over it and think about the future.
  14. They are taking the speech out of context. In fact, the speech is about sacrifices. He was even talking about his travel to Somalia way back in 2011. I always believed that defending your country or fighting for your freedom isn't about how much money you got. Yet, on the other hand I do believe what the great poet Raage Ugaas said about the likes of Musaveni: Baadida nin baa jira kula daydayaayo daalna kaa badane Anse doonahayn Inaad hesjo Daayin abidkaaye. Who would, t like 10,000 of your soldiers and officers sitting in barracks inside Mogadishu and earning a $1000 dollars a month?. If any of your generals thinks about a coup or plotting any kind of insidious idea you just send them to Marka or Mogadishu, or In Beledweyne in the case of Omar Geelle. It is known in Djibouti anyone suspected of a plot is exiled to Hiiraan. If I were Musaveni, I will collect the cash for another ten years.
  15. Sacdiyo Firinbi is playing games. She will get few ambassadors and couple of other appointees. She told her clan family that in these part of the world, " Dagaal, hadal iyo boob mooye meeshaan si kale wax kuma heleysid". That so true.
  16. No one said they will not get the confidence of the parliament. It seems this government is in its third or forth year. Usually new governments make the first mistake in its first year and then few major ones after two or three years. These guys had made four or five major policy mistakes before 90 days. It is going to be a long and bumpy ride
  17. Guys, I disagree with you on this. The one China policy of Somalia is more than 60 years old. In 1960, While Formosa (Taiwan) occupied the seat of the republic of China , Somalia has recognized the Peoples Republic of China as the legitimate government of China. Many nations including Ethiopia, Turkey, Some Arabs, western Uerope and many Africans denied China and accepted Taiwan. How in the world you ignore 800 million people. As such the Somali embassy was located around the Tinmen square. Late American president Nixon went to China in 1971, gave the UN general assembly seat and permanent seat at the security council with the veto power. That relationship was very successful. China built the largest highway connecting from Mogadishu to Berbera, the Mogadishu Stadium, the national theater and other projects. Today China is building huge infrastructure in Africa and around the world. Everyone knows that the only way to lift nations out of poverty is to build big infrastructure like roads, railways, ports, electric grids, irrigation canals and large farms projects. If the Chinese finances $970 billion BRI prpject reaches us we wil have a economic boom that will cross from the Indian Ocean to Ethiopia, South Sudan and the rest of Africa. In this move president HSM isn't taking side, he just stating the national policy of Somalia since 1960. While we should always have good relationship with America due to large Somali diaspora, we shouldn't apologize to anyone for our relations. The $400 million stooge Rashid Abdi mentioned is a drop in the ocean. Probably $10 million of that money will reach the central bank. America doesn't build things anymore including its own infrastructure. Yusur Abraar, the former central bank governor said $1.2 billion dollar was pledged to Somalia by the UN, EU and US , and only $10 million reached the central bank. In 2019, the US provided up to $900 million and EU close to a billion. Have you seen any roads, electric grid, army base, port or anything meaningful done with that money. Rashiid, Matt Bryden and Sahan group will get probably some slice of the pie than Diinsoor or Qardho. Hassan Sheikh should travel to Addis and mend fences with Abiy and ignore the Galmudug boys who thrive through the chaos.
  18. There were zero opposition to HSM when he was selected. Everything was going for him. His vision is clouded by two groups, one domestic and another foreign. Sahan through its operatives are pushing his foreign policy including Egypt and Ethiopia. The other one is Galmudug and certain HAG members who want to encroach KG and incorporate Lower Shabelle to Mogadishu. Roobow, the killer who went from prison to minister, which is first in the world, will be used to destabilize South West region through tribal confrontation. Also, Roobow has his former Al-shbaab/tribal militia waiting in Bakool and will be used when needed. In my opinion, Roobow a card carrying member of Khawaariij won't be managing Waqaf or any religious affaires. Deni and Puntland who were quite for the last two months will soon raise their objections of Roobow and other Al-shbaab members within the government. Roobow will soon resign and start his campaigning to replace C/caziiz Laftagareen. In fact, he doesn't need to resign , he will be working full time to his campaign while carrying a false title. THere are no Waqaf or mercy tasks to manage in Mogadishu. The next battle between Laftagareen and HSM/Galmudug will be in lower Shabeelle. Forget about fighting Al-shabaab, it will be about consolidating tribal regions. HSM is a man of huge contradictions. He talks about peace, yet he is cultivating seeds of war and confrontation. The EU and the UN are somehow level headed organizations who are not simplistic in their view of the world. If you see stupid or disastrous foreign policy, It is probably created by Americans who had failed everything they touched for the last 20 years. Why in the world would Somalia in the horn of Africa immerse itself in the quarrel of oil and other businesses of the gulf, Iran, UAE and Israel.? HSM want to run this marathon with the speed of sprint which means he will be tired soon. Ethiopia doesn't need millions to aggravate the Somali internal politics. It has millions of Hungry peasants who will be recruited for less than hundred dollars to be deployed at the border regions to cause incursions by providing weapons to the willing Somalis who have tribal grievances. Ethiopia can't defeat a unified Somali leadership or a populace who support their government, that is why internal harmony is a must. THose who are trying to stage this proxy war are enemies of Somalia. As Che said, HSM still has a chance to ditch Sahan and others and implement pro Somalia policy.
  19. If there is any rebellion, it won't be coming from Ahmed Madoobe. Jubbland has 15 Wasiiro, Wasiirudawo and deputy ministers among the 77. That is 20%.
  20. Mr. Qansax, indeed this is a declaration of war. Yet, there were better ways to wage the war. Using former Al-shbaab killer against Laftagareen is really bad. I think C/laahi Dani has been tortured by many this year. The only way he could take revenge is to implement the one person one vote in Puntland and deny the the stupid Shalango to Farole.
  21. Guys, you don’t understand where this deputy minister is coming from. He shares seats with cabinet and parliament with the 4.5 group especially the Somali Arab groupings. Ome minister is taken by that Khadijah Diiriye who is constant in Somali government since Catta. The other one is taken by a lady called Ina Makzum a Banafiri, but everyone knows she doesn’t represent her community. She is the wife of former Galmudug president Cabdijariim Dhagajuun. It is the new corrupt Somali system where in laws and others are incorporated. Macalinkii Kacaanja ayaa laga bartay, Ahmed Siilaanyo did, Farmaajo also used. I don’t blame him. No one said let us use competency fir cabinet nominations, and if tribal shares are the rules just like the parliament, the Arab S who are one of the prominent Somalia in terms of business and prestige should get the minister not the lady whose husband is Damujafiid.
  22. Khadaafi, It is hard to pin point the real thing, but there are two plausible scenarios here. One is Those who deploy Muslim Khawaareej around the world, got an oppening to stretch the Ethiopian army and eventually force Abiy to make a deal he can't refuse with the TPLF and this al-shbaab incursion could very well achieve it. Abuukar Armaan said that. The second scenario is the false flag thing. I saw Jamaal, the SKY TV journalist who produced the latest Al-shbaab video was in Jigjiga last week before Al-shbaab invaded Ethiopia. In this sceanrion both Abiy and Mustafe could score points and try to rebuild American credentials and earn the badly needed dough that Meles used to get. Personally, I do believe the first scenario to be the logical one. The EGYPT travel, Mukhtaar Roobow, and the Shbaab invasion could be all related.
  23. Well, it is my turn to add my analysis. Muxuu yidhi Darwiishkii: Mashxaradii Shalay, Hadaan Murugo Waydaaran. Dawladii HSM ee 80 maalmood foolanaysay waxay dhashay Roobow iyo Faqi. Knowledgeable people describe this government as those who are " Angry and Al-shabaab". Most of them are the students and aides of HSM, furthermore none of them are expected raise their voices . Yet, the biggest disaster of all is Roobow. This man isn't a rebel who had repented. In his capacity as the top leaders of Al-shabaab, he issues Fatwa proclaiming it is " Legal to cut the neck of those whitin the government and bring their stomck outside ( Waa in qoorta laga bireeyaa oo Calooshooda banaanka la soo dhigaa). He supervised their crimes and filled the airwaves while he was the main spokesman. Does anyone have seen him asking for forgiveness? never. In fact, some foreign leaders including top UN representatives wanted him to be the president of south west region of Somalia. How does he earned that prevelige?. He didn't leave Al-shbaab in early years. He was one of the top leaders from 2006-2015. In fact, he only left the group when he lost the power struggle against Ahmed Godane who used foreign fighters to subdue his enemies. This man has blood in his hands. To add insult to injury , the former Khawaariij had been given ministry of religion and helping the needy. Do they know the meaning of " Waqaf" ? it means helping others in the name Allah and giving for here after. How does a killer who bombe, hotels, schools, universities and markets would became the face mercy and goodwill. These people had destroyed everything, now they want to besmirch the good name of Islam? Our freinds in Koonfur Galbeed tell us the reason Roobow is elevated from prisoner to minister is to declare war on C/caziiz Laftagareen. It is a war. Now let us look the loser called Faqi. Kuwii maqasha loo diray ee ku fatlgroobay ayaa Geelii loo dirayaa. This guy has failed almost everything he touches. He left the federal parliament and went to Galmudug to became security minister. Instead he became the insecurity man who destablized Galmudug. He let Al-shbaab lose to Xeraale and other regions inhabited by the D...r community with deadly consequences.Then when fall out with Qoor Qoor, he got some weapons from Puntland to fight the terrorist group, but transferred to Ehlu Sunnah which allowed them to occupy Guriceel and other places. He did all that to stick to Qoor Qoor and Farmaajo. Now this loser is elevated to manage internal affaires of the nation. Others I could point out is Wasiir Tik Tok who Rooblaawe appointed defense minister will keep his portfolio. He refused to attend the April 12 commemoration because he feared they might stage a coup. Go figure. The deputy premier is a fellow named Saalax who was mentally unstable as I recall many years ago. For HSM and many soother politicians murder, killing or having bloody hands is nothing but an end that justifies the means. Qofkani dhiig buu daadiyey waxba la aha. Folks, while there are few good guys, this isn't a group who could move the country forward. KG is ready to defend, Hiiraan isn't willing to be the buffer zone for the Ethiopian and Egyptian adventure. Puntland is already out, and if HSM continues in this direction, he will definitely becoming the governor of Banaadir. Among these 77 cabinet members , the overwhelming majority belong to either the senate or parliament. It is like let us wash each others hands. This is how the Italian chamber in Rome works. HSM lied about UAE, lied about Egypt, and hided the Qat deal and so on. I don't know when we have to start the campaign to remove him. I guess we have to wait few more months, because it will only get worse. Sadly judging by the way the empire of chaos works, new maps and other schemes to change the horn of Africa had begun. Ethiopia will be dismantled. Even the ONLF leader had openly said . Guys Somalia isn't ready yet.
