Xaaji,
Divided Somalia is fine. If you have the capital, you have the country. You sideline communities with the capital. Focus on your capital and forget about the rest. Federalism doesn't mean anything. We are not Westerners. We are Africans. Africans don't follow the book.

No, I am not a member unfortunately.
It's clear they are the largest. I have seen a UN document showing populations of towns and cities in Somalia and their towns were much more populated. Xamar is a city of millions. Afgoye, Jowhar, Beledweyn have hundreds of thousands of inhabitants. Remember land doesn't mean larger population or Canada would host the 2nd largest population in the world rather than only having 30 million people. Central Somalia is where a large portion of Somalia's population is. If you include all Somali lands, they are not the largest but in Somalia alone, they are the largest. I don't think there even needs to be a debate about it. It is something that all Somalis can agree too.

I think they can sideline a certain group in the country. It will take time but I think they will be successful within 10-20 years. HAG is the largest within Somalia borders.

You must resort to creativity to go around the censorship

Yes it's a diaspora based group but I think they have some sort of presence in Somalia. In fact, their Twitter page said that they are opening a branch in the capital this summer

Interesting. Thank you Xaaji and Saalax.
Also interesting "strategy"
..... it looks like the thing got leaked... i wonder by who -
Yes that guy Xaad

Hiiraan Online is the most fair and balanced Somali news website on the internet. Everyone from every part of Somalia goes on it. Even the Somalilanders go on it more than their Somaliland websites.
If you want to see bias and nonsense, go to Dhanaan and Garowe Online or the clan websites operating out of angry DAG basements.

There are currently two HAG leaders, Ahmed Diriye and that chubby guy with the orange beard whose name I forgot.
Who is the higher HAG leader? Him or that guy with the orange beard?

I heard of a story of an Eritrean in Holland/Europe whose father in Asmara was sent to jail because his son refused to pay the diaspora tax.
The Eritreans are crazy.

Arabic is not spoken in Somalia. It is a rare language. You don't even find many imaams who speak Arabic. But it is still one of the official languages of Somalia. But some of the literate Somalis can read Arabic. They learn it in school. That is as far as they go.
When the government has an Arab delegation or when they go to the Middle East, they have one translator that the whole Somali delegation of 15 share. The average Somali can't speak a word of Arabic. The highest concentration of Arabic speakers in the Somali regions is in Muqdisho but I think it is not even 5% of the population. There are more English speakers than Arabic speakers.

Why doesn't Somaliland think rationally? I am sure even the most ardent supporters can admit this was a dumb decision.

Of course Godane is in Hargeisa. He was seen by the locals a few months ago
Somaliland and Al Shabab are working together to make Mogadishu unstable. A minister under Riyaale has a son who died fighting with Shabab
When Godane took leadership, no attacks occurred in Hargeisa. Do you know a few of the suicide bombings in Muqdisho were committed by reer Somaliland? But most importantly, the Kufr govt of Somaliland were never a target like the Kufr govt of Somalia is
It doesn't make any sense. Why are they only targeting Muqdisho?
-
You can't have it both ways. Give the Government of Somalia access to your autonomous states or shut the hell up.
No one in the international community deals with state governments. They deal with national governments. If you refuse the government, you will be refused help.
You can't go acting like your own country within a country and then start crying when Turkey ignores you for Muqdisho. At the moment, unfortunately, people have made Somalia only to be Muqdisho. So Turkey and the others will treat Somalia as exclusively Muqdisho.
I hope the Turks and the others continue only giving all the attention to Muqdisho. :cool:
-
You know what also created great mistrust? Treating the Xamar inhabitants and their kinsmen as second class citizens for two decades in their own ancestral home.
As the Jewish Defense League likes to say: "Never again".
-
LOL @ we are the 99%.
Good dear Lord. What a shitty situation Somalis are in.
The Somalis of today will not see a prosperous Somali nation. You know how the Europeans and the Japanese/Koreans of three generations ago had to work hard and create their nations into what is it today? The grand parents and the great grand parents who died building those skyscrapers, who created those effective government institutions, who paved their roads, who did the urban planning, who created their countries from the ground up? Well that won't be this generation. Our children will be the ones who will be the "great grand parents". It is their grand children who will grow up to see Somalia as a prosperous modern nation.
And even I think I am being far to naive and delusional. Maybe 10 generations from now, Somalia will have the same living conditions as Canada today.
Sad. Somalis are animals. Politics, violence, qabyalaad, clan federalism, famine, corruption, nonsense. I truly feel sorry for my ethnic group. We are no different than barn animals. From Zeylac to Ras Caseyr to Ras Kambooni, its the same bullshit. No hope. Just hopeless animals who will live in hopelessness and destitution for many generations to come.

Good. Good. Good.
I highly support this. Central Somalia belongs to HAG. Leave us alone.
Stop your whining. If you want to do anything about it, pick up a gun and come fight us.

Jubbaland should be a local project.
Not a project made by those from Garissa or Garowe. Madoobe and Faroole
I don't think that is too hard to accept. Right? :cool:
Congratulations to the Camel Lovers. You did the right thing. Your new state shall not be created by outsiders who don't even come from the same country as you.

Jubbaland will never come into fruition. Half the people there are against it.
Jubbaland dream is older than Jesus himself. It's a disney-land project. It's not on the ground at all. It is only on DAG clan websites.
It find it ironic the same people who call Somaliland "fake" and "non-existing" are the same people who come from this "Jubbaland".
"Jubbaland" is 50% Al-Shabab where Middle Jubba is 100% controlled by Shabab. There shouldn't be any talks of Jubbaland permanent administration or even a temporary administration before Shabab is eliminated from those areas.
What also irritates me is how people from Bosaso and Abudwaq are trying to get representation in Jubbaland and are DENYING the Bantu of the Jubbas and the two native Jubba HAG clans any representation in Jubbaland. This is why Jubbaland won't work. It is not a local organization. It is just another clan wet dream organization.

Mogadishu's demographics have certainly changed but it's population is in the millions. Kismayo and Bosaso are no bigger than Afgoye or Jowhar.
Your population is not in Somalia. You have more numbers in Ethiopia/Kenya than Somalia.
