What a preposterous statement IBZ. Try to understand yeah Kulaha. What do you think I am? Some crazy qabilist neanderthal??. Your going on like I am trying to suffocate people with a secessionist agenda. Please think before you respond back with complete and utter nonsense. I was a making a general statement IBZ, please don't deliberately misconstrue it.

Paragon. Evil Interest = Occupation of Somalia I in 2007, where you came to take pictures. 9/11 speakers were from the same sub-clan and had met previously met to deliberately hijack the event. isn't that evil interest sxb. Edit: We just wanted to show a united front against the Ethiopian incursion but some people had other agendas to most notably clan bash other peoples. Do you remember sxb?

There has always been a tendency to hijack these well intended events by people with pre-mediated evil interest. Paragon, your display of nationalism on the 1st of July was both reckless and unnecessary. This was an event for young people who have no attachment to Somalia and its messy politics. Very nice picture btw.

Originally posted by Paragon: Sorry, it was the 1st of July. I couldn't resist spreading out the Somali flag. Shame really. What about all the other peoples from the Somali peninsula. I could recognise a number of Somalilanders from the pics including some of the children. The organisers should have taken provisions to ensure that the event was not politicised and hijacked in such a way.

The 350,000 Somalilanders who made their fortune in Mogadishu since the 1960, and who were subjected to robbing, looting, systemic killing and rape before and after the fall of the Barre regime, the nearly million refugees who fled to Ethiopia at the height of the genocide campaign in Somaliland, the unilateral formation of a provisional governments in Mogadishu that ignored and sidelined the SNM leaders who took arms to liberate their people. As an awdalite and a proud Somalilander, I think you would find the overwhelmly majority of Somalilanders are happy with the current arrangement in Somaliland. As ever, you find a few opportunist intent on instability who insist on the break-up of Somaliland. I can gladly and proudly tell you, this is an insignificant number. and Whatsmore, contrary to your perception of a Somaliland being a tribal-entity, this is not the facts on the ground! A&T, I am done talking about this silly topic of yours. Stop the hit and runs on Somaliland or defend your case than jumping around like a TFG member in Abdi-qasim cabinet! Cheers!

I wouldn't call it Brainwashed sxb! more a spiritually awakening to see TRUTH! By the way, have you asked Children in Eastern Ethiopia, North Frontier District, Djoubti, Puntland, and all other parts of your imagined distortion of progress of time in your mind about Greater Somalia??.... I think you'd find its doesn't exist in their minds either! only exists in the minds of old, nostalgic, hopeless remnants of a by-gone era!!!

Somalinimo is a dead concept. What school of though do you follow A&T? There appears to be an imagined distortion of the progress of time in your thinking so that, for instance, events from the past seem to be happening in the present. Realism dictates otherwise.

A&T, all this anti-Somaliland rhetoric is beginning to make me feel there is something sinister behind your words! Live and let live Sxb!

Refutation of A&T treacherous misrepresentation of Somaliland History When on the 26th June 1960, Britain granted independence to the Somaliland protectorate, ending 80 years of colonial rule, some 38 countries recognised Somaliland. Five days later, Italian Somaliland achieved independence from Italy and immediately joined the formally British Somaliland in the north to form the Somali republic. Although theoretically united as a single nation at independence, the former Italian colony in the south and Somaliland were from an institutional standpoint, two separate countries. Italy and Britain had left them with separate adminstrative, legal and education system where affairs were conducted in different languages. Police, taxes and the exchange rates of their currencies were also different. The orientations of their educated elites were divergent and economic contacts between the two regions were virtually non-existent. The new Somali republic quickly experience growing pains shortly after the union. Somalilanders saw themselves loosing everything to the south, including their identity as equals partners in the union and most importantly the right for a separate referendum to decide their own destination without coercion. These problems were further exacerbated by perceived southern domination of the new government. If there was something Somalilanders got in return from the union it was derogatory remarks. The Somalilanders immediately questioned the merits of the union. They turned against their impulsive leaders who hijacked their hard won independence to the south without negotiating for the union act. I believe the blame was squarely laid on the doors of those fanatic ill-spirited politicians who did not master the basic ropes of governance, relinquishing the independence of their beloved country by united with the Italian Somalia without any popular approval through a separate referendum. It thus came to pass soon the union between the legal states was driven by an irresistible blind impulse and pure unreasoning emotion. Both the impulsiveness and the emotions were exclusively and solely from the Somaliland side. Those emotional and impulsive Somaliland leaders who took seriously the ritual lip service to the romantic notion of ‘Greater Somalia’, soon sadly has found themselves living to rue in posterity their naïve credulity. Adeer, please find a smaller cause you can entertain us with! Cheers

Lily and KK, this was a campaigned targeted at Somalilanders to help the forgotten children of Somaliland. There is nothing political about it. Somali kids suffering does affect all of us. But there is a tendencies of shifting the needs of Somaliland's poor to be sidelined. Just because Somaliland has established peace and stability doesn't mean its people are not in poverty and in need of help. Charity starts at home. Its about time some funds were allocated to the poor people of Somaliland. Lets all pray all the suffering goes away and our children are safe, clothed and educated... Insh-Allah

We need to save the future of our country. Noble Somalilander dont forget your people and their stuffing. Allah (subahaan waa taala) says "The Believers, men and women, are protectors one of another: they enjoin what is just, and forbid what is evil: they observe regular prayers, practise regular charity, and obey Allah and His Messenger. On them will Allah pour His mercy: for Allah is Exalted in power, Wise." Al-Qur'an: Surah At-Taubah (Chapter 9), Verse 71 Subha-Allah!

You have no sense of self A&T. Don't think you can take mine away.

You shall be missed Aaliyah. You were doing a good service on SOL with your Muslim youtube clips and Ikhwaani rhetoric.
