I think it's a small demonstrations I don't think it will create a conflict and uprise. Iog and his family controls all institutions of the country. The Ethiopian afar and issa conflict is interesting though they were at war with each other for a few years now. It all has to do with abiye and his policy towards the kilil somali and kilil afar.

There is no such thing as West hargeisa or East Hargeysa South Hargeysa North Hargeysa. Hargeysa is the capital of Somaliland belongs to all its citizens. These people lived their for centuries I am sure as the city is expanding these people will be compensated resettled some where else In Hargeysa this is a matter for Somaliland Parliament and guurti to solve. If the govt wants to build parks roads we need to start some where. But this is a Somaliland domestic issue and non of the 3 above are Somalilanders.

Dahireeto Ethiopia powers shift every time there was a time for almost 600 years it was an amhara gurage control. Before that the agew were in control under yudit. But meles and the EPRDF changed everything with the kilil politics based on ethnic groups. This severely damaged amhara for decades . But I think its natural if you look in the history it was tigray then amhara and oromo. Now the oromo are flexing their muscles. Cagjar knows the danger of oromo and the dangers the oromo face against the kilil Somali or as it is called now Somali state. So an alliance with amhara is the only option to keep the oromos in check in the future not now . How ever he needs to be careful the amhara can be very tricky. They are now in a difficult position because meles zenawi broke down their base when he was in power.

I think General afweyne was the closest agnostic to much Karl marx and Lenin that got to his mind that shuuci mindset got to him and destroyed his caqeeda. When he destroyed the Somali army he turned to Ronald reagon and the evangelical Christians for arms . His problem all started when he took out the culema and started playing God. I wouldn't be surprised if he had secret meetings with the Israelis. He knew he was going down and down went he very bad waliba.

Suldaanka every one knows the Italians and the Portuguese and Spaniards are considerd tumaalaha yurub. In comparison to the Nordic and Anglo saxion. Che knows this to deep inside.

Observer your being a bit selective here sxb. Sure allot of oromo arsi in the east opposed him because of the expansion. But the central oromo shewa backed him some of the oromo wollo backed him. The tigray dislike him because he was an enemy of yohannes and he allowed Eritrea to be part of the Italian empire. Dividing the tigrinya on both sides of the mereb. Somalis never considered themselves part of Ethiopia its just unfortunate the region is part of Ethiopia. So their opinion on menelik is really not relevant. But for most of the habasha and oromo he is considered a hero. I can't think of any other Ethiopian ruler in the past that is more liked by habasha and oromo than menelik . I think haile sellasie is more disliked in both tigray Eritrea and afar and oromo.

Agew can't separate from amhara they are two small it will create allot of problems if kilil amhara is divided. Amhara already faces some problem with galla in Addis. And some border issue with tigray. Ina cagjar wants some sort of an alliance with amhara he knows some how amhara will come to power in Ethiopia in the long run. He wants to be seen as an Ethiopian nationalist. And the most nationalist Ethiopians are amhara.

Old observer I don't think the Eritreans would have wanted a confederation. It would have never worked some way shacbiya and woyane would have clashed again over politics economy or border . Coming back to this story he doesn't break any laws he is no longer a Somaliland official he can meet with the pope if he wants it doesn't change anything. Observer no politician in Somalia has hope to unite Somaliland with Somalia. Somaliland and Somalia conflict is deeper than Eritrea and Ethiopia conflict. Eritrea long war with Ethiopia mostly against amharas tigray and Asmara basically allies sebhet nega had no issue with Eritrea taking the whole Eritrea and landlock Ethiopia. They together karbaashed jebha. Somaliland has no allies in Somalia. Because the majority of the koonfurians believe in the great wild dream to invade jabuuti Ethiopia and Kenya. Greater Somalia. The other 4 somali speaking countries don't believe in it.

Xabashi is not an ethnic group tigre kebessa tigray gurage amhara argoba are all xabashi. Some say only the highlanders are xabasha and the Muslim tigre lowland Eritrea are not. Having said that the adal Ethiopia war was about geopolitics and power. Amde tsion amhara King raided as far as western Somaliland two centuries before the adal Ethiopia war. So it was more than just resources. I agree it later turned into a religious war because religion is what united the different ethnic groups afar somali harari argoba because of Islam and their ottoman allies. But in reality it was a geopolitical war between the empire of Portugal and the ottoman empire. Ethiopia though has one hero they all respect its Menelik. Only tigrayans and some arsi oromo view him in a negetive sense.

He is actually right Sheffield recognises Somaliland. The Wales mps have been the most pro Somaliland. And she is a proud Somaliland lady may Allah bless her.

Axmed guray or Ahmed gran as the amharas call him referred the somalis as Soomaals excluding him self from the Somali. The bulk of his army were mostly Somalilanders and he was born in zeila the first capital of walashma and the second capital of ifat. The mad mullah how ever is more controversial character he also a Muslim jihadi but he has killed more Somalis than he did against the Europeans. From 1899 up to 1904 he led some battles against the brits. But after the ilig treaty it was a pure a camel raiding gang. They were more like the modern Al shabaab.

He said he went to Mogadishu for personal issues he will be back. Galayd resting home is in Somaliland. Galaydh since 1991 flipflopped only once I don't think he will ever do that again it will only tarnish his rep.

Statues are haram bina adan sanab laga sameyo diintu maba ogola

How come this warlord is still alive

Haatu aren't you a Kenyan shouldn't you support madoobe isn't he your uncle. Do you think farmaajo cares for your clan interest

I doubt it's about. Votes he can just buy them votes they will vote for the highest bidder its not like muse biixi has influence on this mps. Xassan sheikh is a millionaire

Not all Somalis just koonfurians peace is better than war you would agree with me on this. Why waste your resources fighting me and why should I waste my resources fighting you. Somaliland being recognised would be stronger economically.

I think this progress maybe there will be peace and love between Somaliland and Somalia in the future similar what happened between Ethiopia and Eritrea.

It's true we have little to do with koonfurians but one can still like pasta. It's just a choice of dish same with clothes. Dhagaxtuur trust me no in somaliland wants to be associated with the animalistic koonfurians who are only known to the rest of the world how to drag the dead and kill their own mothers.

Baasto is also cooked in banadir does that mean we should stop eating Baasto. Silly things. Meesha siyaasadbala iskuhaya and nationalism not what woman wear

What does this have to do with Somaliland. And what makes them terrorist if I asked are the plo terrorist i think you will say something else just because the turks are oppressing the kurds doesn't make it xaq.

Erdoğan is a mass murderer so much for caring for Muslims aren't the kurds suni muslims I have lost all respect for erdogan but that's politics.

Did she really marry her brother or is it just a rumor.

Old observer amhara are unionist centralist to the bone the old generation. But they themselves know the old Ethiopia cant remain in 2019 if they wish to be relevant they need to change. A quarter of the galla are amhara politically and socially.. The Gallas and somalis can't get along because the gallas are expansionist force the amhara are not. Alliances can swift Eritrea and tigray had a long alliance look how it turned out in the end.

Somalilanders politicians cannot visit Somalia its a law we have. As a citizen you can do what ever you want.
