The most capable tough guys are in the opposition. If I were the leader mu government would have included Jaamac mohamed Qaalib Sakariye Xaaji maxamuud Mohamed nuur Tarzan Abdi Samatar Cali Xaji Warsame and some more

To tell you the truth, I never read the Snowden report. Just quoted people who saiD he did confirm. On Al- Zarqawi, I am not insinuating that he was an spy, I am saying he was not a shiekh among the iraqis. What I mean is most of the leaders of these movements are not sanctioned by the Ulema of their land.

Ciidan Suladaan first waan ku Salaamay, second I was busy and unable to contribute this thread, as i was the one who raised the issue. First, The idea of Al-Baghdadi being a Mossad agent is not confirmed by reliable sources. It was published by French websites and others, and most of them say the story is originated from Edward Snowden, who almost every secret he released is becoming authentic. Iran and others also have their own agenda like the Saudis. Second, Almost all the gun wielding Wahabi movements from Chechnya, to Iraq, Somalia, Nigeria, Syria and other places are acting outside of Sharia and Islamic sunnah confines which is very clear. Extra judicial killing is illegal under Islamic law. We have witnessed young men in Mogadishu who are murdering teachers, doctors, nurses and other innocent people without the judgement of any court or Shura. these young men are saying that , they may not even know the person they are killing or who ordered the Killing. All they have is the massage passed to them by Al-shbaab " horjooge". Those who believe Allah and the day of Judgement will not commit wilful murder of people they never have met , or know if they are guilty of any crime. Third, none of the leaders of these movements are Islamic scholars or Ulema known to their community. Because, a Sheikh who is knowledgeable of Islam will not lead a movement that do not abide by the tenets of the faith. The leader of Chechen movement Al-khadaab, overruled the leader of the country and waged his aginst a big country like Russia. Al-zarqaawi, A jordanian with no scholarly background or legitimize among Iraqis , led Al-qaeda in Iraq. Ahmed Godane, a drifter who never led a prayer in his lifetime, became the defacto leader of Al-shabaab. Now , a man who was a member of the Iraqi insurgents, is claiming to be the Amir of all Muslims. If you are Ullema or reputable Sheikh, you will not allow communist or fascist style of Murder. Fourth, most of them hide their identities. Legitimate indigenous people who are fighting for their freedom , dot not need hide and wear masks. Fifth, wherever they pass they are dispensing cruel and unusual punishment. Regardless of their guilt or innocence, who ever they encounter in a battle or belonging to the last order are executed without question. Sixth, They are cleansing, expelling or murdering people of other faith, or Muslim sects. Today, in the western media, we hear a lot about intolerant Muslims refusing to share land and country with people of different faith like christians and other Muslim sects. This is a Wahabi phenomenon to make people hate Muslims and Islam. The truth is Islam and Muslims were the most tolerant people among all civilization. In late twentieth century, There were up to 25 million christians in the middle east. These people lived their for more than a thousand years among the Majority Muslim Nations. Millions live in Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon, and Palestine. In Spain, after the fall of the Islamic empire in Qordoba, in 1490, king Ferdinand of spain and queen Isabella, ordered all Jews of Spain to either convert or leave Spain. MUslims were told to convert or die. Most of these jews were later settled in Ottoman ruled, Morocco, Baghdad, and Istanbul. Islam always protected the venerable, the weak and the minorities. The prophet (scw), said stay with larger Muslim Jameeca. so I am always careful of the lone wolf takfiir who is calling the destruction of the Ummah. Among their primary profile is, they always murder more Muslims directly or indirectly, than they claim to be saving. Finally, like most manufactured movements, they come and go.

Actually when the united state congress asked defence secretary Chuck Hagel about Al-baqdaadi, He said " they couldn't locate his file, or lost". he was detained for three months . then disappeared. This is from a French website with Google translation.

Simon Elliot, aka Al-Baghdadi, son of Jewish parents, Mossad agent Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, so-called ”Caliph,” the head of ISIL (Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant is, according to sources reputed to originate from Edward Snowden, an actor named Elliot Shimon, a Mossad trained operative. Simon Elliot (Elliot Shimon) aka Al-Baghdadi was born of two Jewish parents and is a Mossad agent. We offer below three translations that want to assert that the Caliph Al-Baghdadi is a full Mossad agent and that he was born Jewish father and mother: The real name of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is “Simon Elliott.” The so-called “Elliot” was recruited by the Israeli Mossad and was trained in espionage and psychological warfare against Arab and Islamic societies. This information was attributed to Edward Snowden and published by newspapers and other Web sites: the head of the “Islamic State” Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, has cooperated with the U.S. Secret Service, British and Israel to create an organization capable of attracting terrorist extremists from around the world. Source: Radio ajyal.com Another source corroborates this statement, the site Egy-press: With photo support, a Iranian media discovers the true identity of the Emir Daash, a trained Zionist agent. Iranian intelligence discovered the true and full identity of the Emir Daash, which is known under the name Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi; his real name is Elliot Shimon. Its role in Mossad secret agent in the Zionist espionage. His false name: Ibrahim ibn Awad ibn Ibrahim Al Al Badri Arradoui Hoseini. The plan: get into the military and civilian heart of the countries that are declared as a threat to Israel in order to destroy to facilitate thereafter, the takeover by the Zionist state on the entire area of the Middle East in order to establish Greater Israel. Here are the borders of the Zionist project, the “Greater Israel” or “Eretz Israel” for short. These facts confirm the first that came out a few days ago, confirming that the Caliph Rolex is sent to Israel to sow chaos in neighboring countries the Zionist entity. Please note that EIIL announced it a few days ago that, to want to now take the “barbarians Jews”, a reference to Zionists besiege Gaza. Practice! Having devastated the area of Israel, it will now allow the Americans and the Israelis to show the fingers as bloody terrorists to shoot at faster to defend the Zionist state, while the same let them proliferate and act with impunity for over two months now. Prepare a project they probably from the famous Arab Spring with the destabilization of Iraq, Sudan, Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Syria and Mali (among others). Clever!

This is amir Abubakar Al-baqdaai.

I think those of us who have teenage kids understand the dilemma Faysal Waraabe is facing. As a father of two teenage sons, the fear of our children being associated with gangs and other undesirable world on one hand, and the threat of involved with extremist ideologies which endangers them and their communities at large is a constant battle. These are innocent kids who were brainwashed by people with agenda, but couldn't get the right guidance. Most of these young men have conflicting allegiances, some couldn't integrate well in their respective countries in terms of employment and education, while others are troubled kids who were looking meaning in their lives. I feel sorry for Faysal and his family. He probably left Finland to organize and build peace in Somaliland, while leaving some fatherly duties behind. If you are involved Community service or national issues, certainly " dhinac ayaad u badanaysaa". Isis is a Saudi project to prolong their monarchies. They did the same during Iraq-Iran war on the nineteen eighties. Arabs in the gulf and outside were asked to fight Khomeini and the Shia for religious grounds, but the main reason was to defend the monarchies. The Wahabis and the British colonials cooperated in early twentieth century to defeat the " khalifa of the Ottomans. They used both Arab nationalism and Wahabism to eliminate the ottomans. Too bad people are dying in the 21th century for a feudal kingdom.

Buuraha, I agree. Nothing was done Togdheer, Awdal and many other places. In Somaliland everything is built by the people. I admire the willingness and the patriotism of the private sector and the people to develop. I know there few resources, but I believe they could do better in terms of government building things. It is all about the will to move things.

When it comes to the formation of Somali federal states, we all have certain ideal strategy or how the boundaries must look like. While political realities on the ground dictates the main criteria, others are demarcated by outside forces, , interest groups and tribal hegemony. Every tribe is looking to have an unfair advantage. So far no one had their own ways. The hand rigging of the UN, IGAD and others are visible. After seeing latest maneuvers from these groups, how does the future federal state look like?. The Juba project seemed settled. THe long foot community, backed by Kenya, the "****" block and and the international community will be leading the Jubba state and it is coming to fruition. THe HAG and others, including the President tried to derail this project but, failed. The HAG elders made a big noise, the ****, did the same with no avail. The dog barked but, the caravan continued. Then came the Six provinces of South west region led by Madoobe Nuunow of Bay. Despite their best efforts and the support of their communities, they couldn't dismantle the Jubba caravan. Since that community doesn't have foreign backers or friends in high places, the South West region of six failed. The three state federal project gained momentum. Again the HAG political class and elders rejected the idea. They said a rival three state project of Shabeelaha dhexe, Shabeelaha Hoose, and Benadir will be the three state. In order to form that state, they started a campaign of ethnic cleansing in Shabeelaha Hoose, to create political reality and population presence to increase their stake. The brobogandha took in high gear. The President, Prime minister, UN, IGad and others decided that a three state comprising : Bay, Bakool and Shabeelaha Hoose will be the three state. Everyone protested with no avail. it is done deal. When these issues arise, usually I try to reach my confidant who is located in Mogadishu. These days, he is confined in his house for fear of being targeted, yet he did spill few beans on my behalf. He says that, the UN and the international communities have by now decided, the Somali people shouldn't be left alone to decide these sensitive issues. He says when the road map was pushed three years ago, without the input of the international community, Somalis couldn't even agree if a conference was held in Garowe or Mogadishu. If there is no somebody with judges gavel to say no or reach the verdict, the Somali " isqabqabsi" will go on for eternity. Those who are in power including the President must accept these verdicts and implement. So I asked him about the new Central State formed this week. He said " The HAG community have been complaining about Jubba and Shabeelaha hoose, and since Puntland and Jubb will be two "****" block led federal states, that community want two HAG states, one in central Somalia and one "alta Shabeele and Hiiraan",. He said, " the HAg inhabit Mudug, Galgaduud, Hiiraan, Shabeelah dhexe, Benadir and small numbers in Shabeelaha hoose. they claim to be in six provinces", so for them to have two states is expected". I asked what about the capital?, he said " the capital will not be part of any federal state, it will be a neutral city". Now, the topic of the my headline " trouble makers united". My confidant believes that, certain leaders of the Somali government, the international community and large number of Somalis have concluded that the Mudug and Galgaduud boys are menace to future stability of Somalia. It may not be fair to put in the same box with all Mudg people, since some are challenging for power using different methods, while others are waging wars both in Mogadishu, south and central Somalia, but the verdict is they must be stopped and joined together. While Siyaad Barre himself took the power by the barrel of the gun, and caused the disintegration of the Somali state, most people blame the Coup of C/laahi yuusuf in 1978 and The destruction og Mogadishu to Caydiid, as the root cause of Somali state. Most people believe, the idea of Central State of Somalia, reduces the influence of Galgaduud and and Reer Mudug in southern Somalia. According to these logic, most of the calamities in Mogadishu after 1991 , was the product of central Somalia. When in 1995, Caydiid finally took over Mogadishu and formed his Salbalaadh administration, it was another cousin from Mudug , Cismaan Caato, was the alleged mastermind behind the demise of Caydiid. That war is still being fought in Mudug and Mogadishu. When you see Dahir Calasow, attacking the federal government while claiming to be somebody who cares about Somali sovereignty, do not be fooled by him. He is waging the Mudug war of " Jilib" and against another warlord Cabdi Qaybdiid. As soon as Qoslaaye supported the Galmudug of Qaybdiid, that faction " Calasow', started it's campaign, including fabricating lies and other steps to undermine the Somali state. " Dagaalka Jilibkooda ayaa la dhigiayaa mid Soomaaliyeed oo wax lagu saxayo, laakiin waa xaafadii hoose oo Jilib kale dagaal kula jirta." Unlike his predecessor C/raxman Faroole, the President of Puntland, C/weli has been cooperating with federal government. He was concentrating local and other issue. According to the new configuration of Somalia, Puntland will be reduced to two provinces of Nugaal and Bari, with future addition of Sool. These idea has a wide support among many players, including some " ****" block members. Even the Reer Bari of Boosaaso, and Qandala could be smiling By the removal of the Reer Mudug from Puntland power structure. How else do you explain the political maneuvering before the announcement of the central state of Somalia. Cumar Cabdirashiid is appointed an ambassador to America, he is allying with Qoslaaye. C/raxmaan Faroole , the dean of Puntland politics , didn't raise his voice on this new development. Cweli, the Puntland leader is acting as surprised on this issue, that means they deceived him. Two tough groups who have shed blood for power for the last 35 years, will be sharing a central state. Some are probably saying " sharkooda ina dhaafiya oo meel iskugu geeya". Again all this could be a " fadhi ku dirir and chatter of the political class or a rude awakening. As some said Qosalaaye is becoming machiavellian.

As I said long time ago everyone is training their military for Somalia. From Sierra Leone to Djibouti, they all training for Somalia deployment. If the issue is to enhance Somali security and military capabilities, why not take 1200 Somali soldiers to Djibouti and train them for six months, then send back to Somalia. Well, the foreign worker program for Somalia continues. I hope the Ebola infested west Africa stay away for another six moths or a year until these epidemic is eradicated. If it enters Somalia, God help us.

Wasiirka arrimaha dibeda ee Djibouti, Mohamed Ali Yusuf ayaa sheegay in Maraykanku tababr u furay hal batalyan ama 1200 askari oo dawladiisu doonayso in ay ku biiriso hawlgalka Amisom ee Soomaalia. sanadkan dhamaadkiisa ayaa la filayaa in ay Soomaalia soo gaadhaan markay tababarka dhamaystaan. Wasiirka ayaa sheegay in Maraykanka iyo Djibouti iska kaashanayaan, Istaatiijiyad cusub oo looga hortago khatarta argagixisada qaarada Africa, gaaraaah, Kooxda Al-shabaab. Sarkaal ka tirsan Taliska Ciidanka Maraykanka ee Africa (AFRICOM), ayaa sheegay in ay laban labayaan tababarka ciidamada Djibouti. Xafiiska Wararka Booramnews.

Odaygu waxuu rabay in dhawr Suaal ka jawaabo oo uu hadal uu yidhaahdo, laakiin waa loo diiday. THis Guulwadayaal are control freaks. What a big deal if answers few questions. On one hand , He saying we will address the media another time, then he says he is on vacation and doesn't have anything to say. Why are afraid off. After his term, Siilaanyo must retire. This can't go on for another three or four years.

keep the pressure. go after the big fish.

Malister, howshan waa in aad ka jawaabtaa. maalin walba waxaan maqlaynaa " kornaylka militariga iyo wiilka Al-shabaab oo meel ka soo wada toosaya.".

Malister, I hope they do. When I saw the pictures Osman Caato garage, I was shocked. That was huge stockpiles of mines, grenades launchers , hand grenades. Che, who knows , there could be more garages like that. Fari kama qodna. They are also misleading the government to think they, the warlords are fighting alongside the government to defeat al-shabaab, while keeping their capabilities. Waa tuugo si cad hub ugu haysata " garages".

Hub ayuu ka gnacsdaa, saxaafadana wuu la hadlay. wasiiro ayey wada hadleen. Well , we all know guys with big guns and militia are untouchable. We also know the biggest threat of peace is not al-shabaab alone. Plenty of Private militia with the power to assassinate and do damages. A long way to go.

Saalax, it is strange a leader goes to a foreign country for vacation, and stays almost four weeks. It couldn't happen anywhere else. You can't go around about your business as a private citizen. Either you are in government business or quick medical check up. When he wa in London, he said " waan caafimaadkaygu wuu wanaagsan yahaye dacayada iga daaya". waa lagaa dayne runta sheeg oo waxaad tidhaa caafimaad ban u imid. halka aad ka leedahay nasasho ayaan u imid".

l. Khadafi, the expectations of our generation is law. Although the military government has done a lot in terms of education, military strength , culture and social issue, that era could be probably considered the age of innocence. People gave the ruling class every support they demanded, during peace and war. In early and middle seventies progress was heavy and quick, but do not forget the civilian government of the sixties put down the foundations of the most of government initiatives. THe Kacaan had a lot of good will from the people. As soon as they took over there was euphoria and support for a change. They rode that support long enough to achieve some meaningful gains, but eventually, they not only abused the trust, but also , destroyed the system from within. By early 1982, greed, corruption, nepotism and others were gaining momentum. I remember in 1983 when I went to Halane training school, there wasn't any organizational structure in the school to train and teach those high school graduates. There wasn't even a military uniform to fit our sizes. We were told to go inside a room full of old uniforms wore by former cadets. We went inside and sifted through few pants until you find one that fits you. An organized state would have atleast made a uniform for it's cadets. Unqualified people were populating government ministries. The Somali shilling was declining , inflation was rampant. From 1981- 1988, Somalia received $2.billion dollars of debt and aid from the outside world. Most of that money went down the drain. Having said that the biggest difference between today's generation and the one between 1960- 1980, was, the expectation was greeter. While there were poverty and meagre resources, they grew up like first class citizen of a nation rising. They were self confident with their culture and way of life. They didn't fear no one, including their neighbors, in fact Somalis of that era were feared by their neighbors. They were sending officers to Africa to train liberation movements. Few years ago I was talking to a co-worker who was from Zimbabwe. He probably wasn't familiar with Somalis and their background. As we chatted, one day, he came to me and said, " Are you guys in some kind of exile like us which kept kept you guys from going back home, or how long this war is going on?. Well It was difficult to explain that we went through the overthrow the dictatorship, the collapse of the state, the Warlords, the Maxakamad, Al-shabaab and so on. The one thing I told him was that ," we may look to him as disorganized refugees who are scattered all over the place, but, in the seventies, we were those who liberated you from the White Rhodesian colonialism of Ian Smith, I sang the famous liberation song that we even composed for their sake. http://www.heesta.com/hesogs/midab%20gumeysi%20diida%20by%20wadani1672.mp3 Ian Smith Ma muuqdeen, Rodisia ma ma maageen hadan midig la siinin Bortaqiis ma miidheen mana uu malaysteen Mozambique Angoola midiyihi qarsoonaa, Gini lagu miraayey south Africa ma mamoogin, Africay ismaqalo midam gumaysi diida. Traditionally Somalis and Africans in general do not build things. They think government means ministries and militaries and propaganda. Go figure how many hospitals , roads or water wells has Somaliland built for the last twenty years. Most of money is spent to look good and mislead. even in Somalia of seventies and eighties everything was built by others . stadio mogadishu, the national theatre, the universities some of the schools and all roads were built by others. How about the current government. THey put sophas in the palace, but didn't build one clinic or dag a water well any where. All the money will go to travels , hotels and crooks. While security and military is important, why not at least allocate few dollars for the poor. Khadaafi you right all we see is high rising buildings in Mogadishu. Probably on stolen money. Finally, the big difference was " waxaa lagu qanacsanaa dalka iyo waxa yaalla". People were told to be proud although they may have had nothing.

Okay. so you saying HAg guys are refuding this. Mooge, how about C/weli of Puntland. Did they never told him anything. I think Cweli has been cooperating with federal government since he was elected, and now they want to plan things without even consulting him. Nimankani nma Faroole oo kale ayey rabaan. This guy never said any bad word about the federal government. Well, may be they are looking for confrontation. Qoslaaye good luck on that.

Che, of course we know that. Now the Gakmudug leader is Qaybdiid. I mean the recognized leader.

Mooge, ninyahow nimankan dhexdhexaadi.

Mooge, these are the group defeated by c/qaybdiid. it is the fraction of Dahir Calasow, which he claims to be minister of information. . Now the recognized Galmudug leader is Qaybdiid. WArlord Calasow " wuxuu rabaa dagaalka jifooyinkooda ka dheceeya in uu nagu wareeriyo". they are vying power within Galmudug. It is Caydiid and Caato group still fighting each other. in 2014. They never reconciled.

ElPunto, we all agree that a mutual understanding of the communities is the primary condition for the formation of these states, yet we are witnessing hand rigging and pressure from JUbba to Shabeele and elsewhere. It was just last month that Bay was forced to accept three states. I did write about this months ago that the federal system must follow a flexible guideline that considers geography , trade and the overriding interest of the Somali state. We are not advanced as Missouri and Kansas where Kansas city is stretched across the border between two states. Puntland was formed during the civil war era, when people were seeking a base and place to keep themselves safe and and seek the Somali future state. Now there was uninterrupted peace among these communities for almost two decades. I never heard any attempt from the parties to try to join. Why not try. If people who live in the same city won't share anything, then the so called federalism could be a tribal line project. Throw the useless constitution which says two sate or more, and change to every tribe and community must form it's own state without forcing anyone. Most reasonable nations form an expert commission and slowly study the feasibility of the formations, considering the advantages and disadvantages.

You right their condition is trible. On the other side, the Arab nations would like to use the Palestinians as bargaining chip and to keep them right there in that horrible condition. It is smart idea to give them land to be flexible, but that idea or even a thought of changing the status quo can only be contemplated if there are progressive Arab nations who are reasonable. Egypt who is keeping the Gaza jail shut, will not give any land to their brethren. They have their own blood thirst dictator. The so called moderates are the feudal monarchies. The only hope is if there is democratically elected leaders who will speak on the behalf of their people could pressure Israel to change the status. If Mursi was there this war could have not gone that long. Netanyahu is right wing. He is a disaster for both the Israelis and Arabs. maybe, The American government and Israelis will decide to throw him out next time for a more moderate leader who is willing to deal for peace.
