I've not read the rest of this thread; But just saw the last response. How interesting. Who is WE (that united Somalia in the 60s?) Awdal is different from SSC case because Aksha: Your clan groups, sub clans, elders, business community, intellectuals HAVE ALL shown their support to Somaliland, there is countless evidence everywhere, they have LED and promoted the SL cause when Burco was no promoting the cause, they were the financiers and champions of Somaliland up until Riyaal lost the election. Suddenly it is SL= SNM. Really? If your problem WAS SNM it was dealt with in Burco conference 1993, if your problem was based on moral objection or love for Somalia it would've materialized in the last 20years. Also realistically speaking SSC has more options, Awdals has zero option and you cannot CLEAN (subxanallah) your way to Somalia- even Siyad Barre with the whole countries resources could not manage that. So cool yourself, aint no one going to clean anyone (I cannot believe people advocate for the cleansing of others so easily just based on clan) HA la iska baqbaq leeyo Somaliland, SSC iyo Awdal clans wa la isku xidey, ilaho so kala fura mooyan, not sure diaspora parties and forum debates will tip the balance any time soon. Faan baadan daadku :rolleyes: you and whose army will unit Somalia? Is Awdal going to march over to Xamar and solve the puzzle?

In the case of " an alternative be agreed ", waad iga qoslisay and I needed one after a long day. Admit or not admit your clan needs other Somali clans as much as my clan needs them. No more, no less. Don't portray that your people encapsulated and are self-sufficient when it comes to the interdependence of the said communities. Finally, I've invested a lot of effort promoting peace in Somalia and I shall continue but sorry I cannot accept the gross injustices that you are promoting. Oh, Somaliland claiming its dependence from WHO, last time I checked they are the aggressors but you are picturing them as if they are the victims ... cajaa'ib -- Allow sahal umuuraha. Not self-sufficient if nothing else they need the business and money/ exchange of the people in those region, this is above all the other things. When you finish laughing etc, put aside the paranoia and read my post again. Somaliland says they've had their victim years, now some SSC say they are having their victim years, do we keep recycling the victim or find an alternative agreement. You find it funny and want to continue circulating the victim to a different clan or re-rotate. I find that finding a new solution is a necessary step to progress, and it is not a laughing matter (certainly SSC is not laughing, nor was Somaliland laughing before), and anyone who cares for Somalis should not find it funny. :cool: Go figure.
  7. Taleexi: It is holistic gumaysi in either direction, isn't that WHY Somaliland claims independence? So since either one cannot submit to that, an alternative needs to be agreed. That is my point; It cannot be as simple as do what you want and leave us alone, only ignorant people or those who can safely sit behind a computer without being impacted can say that with a straight face. FOR NOW is that they realize their inalieable self-determination by any means necessary. whose self determination is more important? mine, yours or the majority? If that is the case, then in the foreseeable SOMEONE/clan will be oppressed somewhere in the Somali Lands.

Talk about even Somalia and they will tell you about xaawo taako, sayidka, and so on. If you let your history go, then there is nothing left for you. And that is exactly what they mean when they tell you "let the past go" ............ Can America let 9/11 go ?? ... Can even Muslims let Badr & Uxud wars go ?? ,,,, if we want to let the history go, then that history should not happen in the first place. I told you, it could be easily avoided. Okay you cannot let the past go, then creating a past for these people distinct from yours will haunt you later, agreed? I told you, I'm up for any dialogue .... It is them that are still fighting. We're just fighting back. The statements like "You do not exist" or "You cannot exist" makes one more radical and would do anything to show them the otherwise. Sit with them ?? ,, Good and excellent idea but with who exactly ??? ,,,,,,,,,,, Alshabaab ?? ,, The Villa ??? ,,, Ahlusunna ??? ,,, Bugland ??? .. Galmudug ?? ,,, Ximan & Xeeb ?? ,,,, Lasagna ??? ,,,, Jubbaland ?? ,,,, They need to be one first to be ready for sitting on a table for talks. That does not seem happening at the moment. Forget Somalia as whole now; the SSC, I mean sit with the people not the oldies or the sell outs, sit with the people, all their representatives and hear them out, hearing out the few that come with you is not enough, hearing out the ones who oppose you is difficult but needs to be done. YOu are just chasing them around haada. Yes SNM was Jabhad and no Somaliland is not making the same mistake of Siad Barre. Gov Modifications, talks, negotiations, and other things are underway right now. I don't want to tell you everything I know but there will be lots of changes coming in the near future. But you should know that SSC is not the same it looks on SOL ...... Okay progress of things are in the pipe line hence why the fighting stopped I get that, but can a long term solution be found rather then cease fires that randomly pick off where they left off after a while. Can something other than appealing to their hungry /bribe with money/ positions be done?? Otherwise tomorrow when the position shifts or the money is increased by someone else, they will buy from else where. Can you marginalized the money motivated ones and deal with peace/ progress motivated ones? THE ZACK Somaliland in its current capacity without giving up their claim- as an alternative; if Somalia fails to rise then they would've done themselves a great injustice giving up their claims prematurely. However IF Somalia rises, then they can give up their claim for the better alternative. Lastly I am still waiting for someone to tell me what being part of Somalia looks like right one for someone who lives in SSC? Do you have a say? power or influence in the current power struggle going on?
  9. Salamah, 1. AfricaOwn; as an ambassador and an advocate for Somaliland you make a poor job of making it appealing. You are always angry, resulting to name calling etc. There is an art to persuasion which you lack (Ngonge, Ododwyne, Suldaan, Ayoub and North have) and you are just angry 24/7 and easy to provoke (while JB comes across as happy go lucky). You, XX, axmed, saleex and Abokor are far too militant, rude and disrespectful (yes yes I get it people are the same to you, but you have to learn to rise above it). 2. Liiban; thank you for your length post, some I believe you are sincere, some are just pretty words; without me picking it all apart (don’t have time and you are hardly going to admit to it) here is the main problem I see with your argument; - Assume Somaliland divides along clan lines (that is what you are advocating for remember) forget Awdal for the moment, Your clans of SSC (particularly the main clan) share miyi territory with the clans of the three city; in fact my home town Burco has about 20% SSC population with houses, business and land. My home village/ tuulo, use to be about 80% that clan, Hargeisa as a current commercial and business hub hosts this clan. Should the SSC be forced to clear off (displaced) to honor these clan alignments?. Do you really think that the SSC clan can shift from the shared miyi lands forever? As an individual who don’t live there (SSC) you probably think if the village of LA and the other three city are cleared, then everything will be dandy right? I am sorry to tell you that the area which your clan lives and sustain their livestock reaches far beyond those cities you know and right into the heart of the current "disliked" clan. It is my opinion therefore that your idea does not in reality work or can even be called a constructive proposal which preserves of the interest of your clan, let alone fair to anyone else. It is as absurd as some Somalilanders saying; Those who do not want to be part of Somaliland are free to pack their belongs, grab their geel and huts and shift over to the lands that extend beyond the SL boarder to join the clan brothers they want. - Somaliland and SSC future is intertwined because the people who LIVE (not you or khaddar, or AfricaOwn or XX) in those areas needs and survival are socially, culturally and historically intertwined, it has been for so long before politics got involved. The SSC nomads will not leave the lands that sustains their livestock, nor will they give up the lands and houses in the SL cities, nor will they shift over to the lands of D block to be a refugee. Nor could they say we don’t want to be with you (SL), but we will stay in the heart of your clan and operate with our interest intertwined. Nor can you say SL people stay out of our village while WE roam your cities and our livestock graze right in the middle of yours in safety and good heart. Nor can they say ISq clan should only live in 3 cities and give up their miyi territory. Now do you see the dilemma of such situation? Can you appreciate that your idea is not viable? This is why I find it ridiculous when I hear you and the SSC nomads here saying SL should do what it wants and leave our cities alone. It is a none argument, because in saying that you give up your clans claim to sharing grazing lands that form the backbone of their survival. How do you think they live? Do you think the majority live in brick houses with running taps and supermarkets? Could your clan really just live in your cities and survive, for how long? A day, a week? - IF you agree that the division needed to preserve both interest is NOT possible then we can progress, however if you still think the SSC clan can survive on its tuulos and cities while giving up their interest in the SL territory and shared lands, then please explain, I am all ears;? General point: All those saying get out of their land, it just shows you have no idea how people live in those areas. Qurbo joog.com :D
  10. Liibaan, okay you want to be part of Somalia, what does that mean? Where is Somalia haada? You say Somaliland does not exist and it is all Somalia, but haadan you say I dont want to be part of Somaliland? If there was a WHOLE Somalia again you do realize that Somaliland will be a player?- where and how would you transfer your hate to then? Would you ensure they are marginalized or occupied. After all that happened, could you seriously call them your brothers? or has the hate and wars progressed too far for it ever to coexist within ONE entity (be it Somalia or Somaliland)? JB until they are ready could be a long time, in the mean time, dont you think you should do some damage control? As a die hard Somalilander who reminds us all the time of 1981, 88 and 91, can you or are your prepared to ever let it go, bygones and history and all. IF this history holds you hostage, could you ever sit down with the said people and tell me you can have a honest and open good hearten dialog with them? Dont you think it is impossible with the burden of you did this to me? You say SSC wa jabhaad, was SNM not a jabhaad, is Somaliland in fact not making the same mistake as Siyad Barre did by labeling them as such and not dealing with them and their issues, maybe few changes and modification in the government much like the SNM wanted could swing the people? it is an oxymoron to say I wont forget history yet refuse to learn the lessons it taught. SNM succeeded because the longer the struggled, the more brutal the government become legitimizing their concerns, is this not what Somaliland is currently doing?
  11. JB, okay I hear your point, but dont you understand that these people are not going to go away, dont they concern you that the people in your back yard feel this way about your existence. Fine fighting happened, but that was a long time ago, the uncles will be dead in most in 5-10years, leaving behind a population who did not fight you and only knows what their uncles told them. You cannot write them off as I know their stance, you don't. These are the future of Somalis, be it good or bad, you can't just right them off as my way or the high way because the high way just goes around your house and to your back door. As we say, deal with it before you are forced to or forever held hostage. It is good for you to write, more than your usual Loooooooool iyo :D Bashire: No not your or BOB (He is kismayo), I can't remember his name, laakin wa half waadad.
  12. JB: People of Somaliland, Somalia, or Somali Speaking nations (nationals)! think wholly being part of a region. the question is what will benefit all?, after all Somaliland does not exist in an empty space and impacts others. Is Somaliland’s independence detrimental to the people as a whole? inside and outside of Somaliland. What is the reason for objection to Somaliland’s self determination? Is self determination a natural right? If yes what about people who object to Somaliland, IF no, then explain Somaliland! Pursuing these line of discussion is healthy and needed IF somaliland was to move in either direction. The fact you think it is useless is worrying. It is also more productive than my clan is better yours. The Zack; Could Somaliland be seen as a stepping stone to Federalism and in turn would yield the ever sought UNITY of all of Somali speaking lands?
  13. :D lol wa just lazyness on his part, education is actucally pretty good here! About OdeySomali; I only ever read 4 posts or so when he was debating with Taleexi, sounded pretty pro-Somalia to me in the long term. I also didnt see anything on the same level as XX, he is simply out of this world with his views.
  14. ^^I didnot say ban dude. OdySomali CANNOT be XX, that is just absurd, XX only writes in aff Somali and I dont think he can hide his insults and general absurd ideas. Pluz his favorite word "Konfuurs" would've slipped out already if it were him. I think OdySomali is PRo-Somalia in the long term. JB: Not true, Since I joined SOL, one of the biggest supporters of Somaliland (Ngonge) has progressed from where is Somaliland to there is only Somaliland. Libaan and Xoogsaad and most of the SSC nomads as well as the more neutral clan in that region has switched sides from SL, PL to forming their own Makhir or SSC or something else at one point or another. This of course was not always as result of a health discussion on SOL, but it probably helped them see things one way or another. Ngonge as a case study has most certainly progressed as a direct results of his interaction on SOL. P.s. Well done you wrote 5lines!!!
  15. JB: You are a troll and you never write more than 2lines unless you are quoting someone- so maxa lagaal haadla? Also Somaliland baa madax ka gashey, as nice and smiley you are to everyone (I have to say you dont resort to open insults) laakin you are not willing to look beyond your box- probably because you believe Somaliland is earth and there is nothing beyond it but space so what could you possible add to this discussion? Waad duushey already! Tell me if I am lying or being unfair The Zack: I already knew I was going to be attacked, waan uu badadey! Its okay though, waxaba maleh. Tell the truth and shame the shaydan, ciidna kuman geefin beena kaman sheegin.
  16. I just read the list again and it looks like I've excluded everyone I would've liked to see a debate with the following components and opponents. Pro-SL: North, Ngonge Pro-SSC interest: Taleex, Val, Malika On sideline Puntiland; NN iyo Sayid on sideline- ONLF: Zack and the other dude- the half wadaad one Pro- Somalia: OdySomali, Adam, Sayid and the smart newbie They could have a decent discussion and with the exception of maybe Ngonge and NN are willing to accept others view or be persuaded. At worst they could agree a nice compromise which suits them all. All the others wye iis shiidi! Okay I think I have caused enough trouble in this thread already, so relegated myself to the side line. Salamah
  17. ^^^^^Darfur has had a change on the ground Jacpher, did you miss the news? All those white people visiting MADE a difference- albeit it took a long time, longer their life line for some, but still...
  18. :eek: :eek: :eek: Okay there is corruption and there is robbing blind a nation on its knees. :eek: :eek:
  19. Otherwise the same old guards just hijack the thread and like the other one it just becomes my clan is mighty and will crash your village and you will never leave iyo catch me if you can. P.s. I would've liked to see meeshey isla gaadan North and Sayid, and Ngonge to stop hiding behind the jokes and smiles.
  20. No, never that, waba shameful to call qofo Somali sheegtey Ethiopian!!!! :eek:
  21. ^^^Thats only because you are a foreigner and dont understand Somali Go figure!
  22. ^Che, laakin adiga laftadu waad shuqshuqsa the kids in the politics section, waan arkey adiga oo ka maadsanaya.
  23. I always think each side haadi 3 specific users laga asaaro they will be able to have a normal conversation, but certain people are not interested in debating, they have grudges against each other and regardless of the topic, they want to continue shaking a stick at each other. P.s. Even yourself, you hijack good many a topic by provoking certain users who then in response flood the threads with pictures iyo ridiculousness. I firmly blame you- In fact I saw such thread today!
  24. Maybe in Qardho, but in London it is Fish worms wa uuf, even bird dont want worms if it can get fish!
