^^^The clashes are already being won, I know some here compare the situation to Iraq, but the Looters Inc are not the Sunni army of Sadam Hussain. District by district is falling, and these groups are loosing allot of ground, Hotel Ramadan, Fagax, Yaqshid , Sanca and most of the areas they were holed up has been already taken. Its incremental measures being taken the result the defeat of the anti-governemnt groups.

Xox, the TFG still rules Kismayu, if you have any info as to the change of Admin kindly provide it, who rules Kismayu? The Defence Minsiter of the TFG? LOOL Red Sea, ok bro.

Red Sea, they were ordered to. No one wants the thing to be come an inter clan clashes. Most of our troops are new recruits. Anyhow more troops and commanders are coming from Baidoa to settle the issue.

^^^lool, that was amusing indeed. Add something to the topic lad.

People lets stop with the personal insults. Lets be civil.

The man is amazing. A self declared King making all the headlines. Noble prize indeed.

1. Kismayu is not a big deal the real fighting is taking place in Mogadishu and that were the TFG concentration will be for a moment. 2. Hearsay is not fact none of the commanders from Gedo part and parcel of the TFG have come out against any of the other officers, Mahdi, KOOJAR as well as ina Afgaduud. Those who are looking for a Dhahar moment, so be it.

^^^I think you guys are personalising the issue a tad bit. Afgaduud is a commander in the city he is not the mayor nor the governor, thus if he is the problem its not such a big deal. Though clan millitias trying to seize the city of Kismayu will not do nor work. Xiin, defending Ahmed Diriye and those who lloted properties in 1991 and then attacking others makes no sense does it?

Xiin, shame on you saxib. In this case Horn is right and you are wrong. There is no need to wish for clan fighting, the TFG is to blame for not securing the city better, but I do not buy all this about clan fighting. Anyhow 4 hour fighting is nothing when we take into consideration the history of the city. Lets hope for a quick resoloution and lets kis and make up. Reer Gedo, reer Puntland, reer Mogadishu all can live in the city.

The fighting is taking so long due in part to the fact that, 1. The TFG & allies have been very careful not to use too much force in order to safeguard the public as much as possible . This is the reason the death count has not reached thousands, which it would considering the density of the population in the urban areas. 2. The TFG has givin the public enough time to go out of the affected areas to safer grounds, they ahve warned the population at large that a major offensive will take place. The above two reason has meant incremental steps taken, care to minimise casualty, has meant a long campaign in comparison to even the "minute" war which took place in sparsely populated areas such as Moode-Moode & outskirts of Idaale.

^^Thanks for the update cous, thus its not such a big deal if its all about personality and bruised ego. I like your analysis, this is not a clan war, which means its not a big deal. Anyhow lets watch this space. Some here were having a joy of a time thinking this is a new front, which it is not.

This is a minor incident which the elders will deal with. The troops have been taken out to the out skirts of the city. The police and admin are still functioning. There is no clan war, and Hiiraale is not involved. Those who hope Kismayu will be a new front are mistaken, this is a small issue.

^^^One has to say that this action of eleminating the armed groups is a prerequisite to law & order. The truth is simple, these groups must put the guns down, nothing unique about them apart from the fact they looted the properties of the nation and its people.

^^loool, its the way you understood it saxib.

^^^Great analysis Sakhar.

Dhanka kale dagaalo goos-goos ayaa weli ka socda caasimada Soomaaliya , dagaaladaas oo aan u socon ilaa hada si Xwli ah ayuu wuxuu ka socdaa deegaano ka tirsan Towfiiq iyo Heliwaa. Ciidamada dowlada ayaa lagu soo waramaa inay maalintii shalay ay la wareegeen goobo leh oo ay horay difaac uga jireen kooxaha dowlada ka soo horjeeda.

^^^Good point, but lets look at it from another angle. 1.What about the Buaale incident when 5 injured prisoners were executed inside the hospital. 2.What about the Nun, the Swedish Cemera man who were slain in Mogadishu. 3.What about the Italian grave yard that was dugg up by the Al Shabaab group and the remains were sold back to the Italians. These court groups are quite strange.

The destruction of our capital could only be addressed by a governemnt

The ordinary people hunger for their national governemnt ka Reer Gobolka Shabeelaha Hoose oo Maalin Walba Ku Jira Is-abaabul ay ku Doonayaan Xornimadooda.[/b Which they have gained now.

^^^Ok Tahliil. Geel-Jiire, I never knew we had home made weapons, can you tell us were they are located? I did not see their faces, but we will see the back of them. Resistance to law and order will not last long.

Somali national police, army will benefit
