They are all smiles.

I am always fascinated by the story of Omar Samatar, the miliary leader from Hobyo Sultanate. I read he was a brilliant military strategist who nearly defeated the Italians. After his Hobyo Sultanate was defeated by the Italian Fascists, he went into the country side and continued his fight against the Italians. He liberated Elder, Elbur from the Italians until the fascists brought in heavy reinforcement from Eritrea. He was pan-African anti-white, anti-European warrior who is ironically revered in Ethiopia today because of his fights against the Italians. His military tactics frustrated and demoralized the Italians. There are many roads and schools named after him.

In British Somaliland and the regions of Bari, Nogal and Mudug, these important events occurred The British Empire fought the Dervishes The Dervishes fought the Migiurtinia Sultanate The Migiurtinia Sultanate fought the Italians Fascists The Italian Fascists fought the Dervishes The Hobyo Sultanate fought the Migiurtinia Sultanate The Hobyo Sultanate fought the Italian Fascists The Italian Fascists fought the British Empire It is a fascinating history.

Is Johnny a used-parts salesman in Mogadishu?

Everyone dismisses Faysal Ali Warabe as a madman, and then everyone listens to him. Either he is mad or the rest is crazy.

That is weird.

What is the occasion?

Welcome Aurora. Are you a girl?

Johnny, if he is still here, it is a possibility he changed his username because I have not seen someone with that name around here.

Jubaland is on the brink of another civil war. Let us pray for peace.

Really? Are people really concerned about the word "somali" not representing them? This is going too far.

HI Johhny B. Who is GNONGE?

Ducale, your beesha dhexe must play fair and share development funds and decision making with other tribes from Somaliland.

I am beginning to believe Suldaanka's earlier statement that Somaliland has a long-term plan which is to grab a village every few years to eventually reach Garowe. If Puntland doesn't get Tukaraq back in the next few days or weeks, the game is over.

This is an example for rest of Somalia. We have plenty of sun and wind. Instead of dreaming about the discovery of hydrocarbons, let us adopt renewables for a better future.

Thabit served at the pleasure of the president. But the government must take clan sensitives into account when making high profile changes.

Aamin.

Really good news. I hope she recovers 100% very soon to get on with normal life.

Suldaanka, if it is a Somaliland town, why attack now when Farmaajo is visiting the region?

Galbeedi, don't mind the ethiopians. They are as clannish as we are and OO is defending his Tigray clan.

Iranian authorities reportedly arrested former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in Shiraz for inciting unrest against the government, the Al-Quds Al-Arabi newspaper reported Sunday, citing "reliable sources familiar with the matter."

This must be an important project for Djibouti. I looked into this and I found a France24 video that gives background information on this Chinese investment.

It all makes sense now. https://www.alaraby.co.uk/english/news/2017/12/17/saudi-arabia-releases-influential-jordanian-businessman-sabih-al-masri

I am very sure she was handpicked by Putin for a show.
