^^^ lol, my echo, il coward at least give us a background on the man, oh sorry you only know Mogadishu warlords, my bad..

Qaynyare, cheated them huh. But was he not a friend of the JVA? alas I dont think he has that power, soon the other dude will be names I am sure. Anyhow Abdi Xasan Awale Qaybdeed is a strong man, I never heard of this Gedo man is he any good.?

My brother Horn as ever is trapped between a rock and hard place. No doubt he fully understands the situation Hiiraale and junior partners of the JVA are in, yet loyalty to the clan means he will fight tooth and nail to defend his hero. What ever I might think of Hiiraaale and it has never been much, he does not represent the whole clan of Gedo, the deal he made with con-man Abiqasin has resulted only in further impoverishing this clan. That’s why some are negotiating with PUNTLAND, others are on the side of the TFG and some like Mr Jamac Dhere outright rebelled. If Hiiraale is so strong and cunning and indeed a “strategist†in a positive sense, he would have created an administration even in the areas which he “controls. The strings are being pulled in South Mogadishu, Abdiqasin being the star of this feature, Inda Cade and few others of the senior JVA once in a while make cameo appearances, while Xabsade and Hiiraale are mere extras, hardly noticeable in the shadowy background . Horn, with his magnified vision, is left forever replaying the tape and pausing to the scene where our star walks by a bearded character who happens to look like the photo's plastered on his bedroom wall, but is it Uncle Hiiraale or Xabsade? Wind-talker, Its funny I don’t much think the south have been introduced properly to Colonel Sacid Dheere, yet I must concede my suspicion regarding this rehashing of the old story of the claim that PUNTLAND is invading Somalia.

^^^ Good news..

I expected nothing less from Bashi, thought provoking as ever. I have one query, in which group do you place the clans of Hiiraan? Is the reference of opportunistic clans about them? Musa Sudi and his cousin Finish are facing extreme pressure from their clan to tone down their rhetoric and leave the group under the tutelage of the maverick but much diminished, Osman Ato. The powerful clan of south Mogadishu is embroiled in a meaningless and costly power struggle over Hobyo which has affected the relationship between two of its big sub-clans. Apart from the JVA I have seen little evidence to suggest there will be much struggle for the coming liberation of the south. Osman Ato, Abdiqasin, and Xasan Dahir Aways and several Mogadishu business men are the key players in this group mentioned by Bashi.

^^^ Oh my, Mr NSS secesionist, clan country fascist, why do these people even try...

^^^ LOL..I have no obsession with this joker, its just the news, his comment of "I failed in my mediation attempt between the RRA" that made me laugh.....

^^^ I second that, brother SKY stop with this type of comments, it only harms you..

Mr.Yusuf ayaa intuu ku sugnaa magaalada Baydhabo mar uu saxaafada la hadlay sheegay inuu waan waan nabadeed u yimid magaalada Baydhabo, balse arrintan ayey ku gacanseedheen dhinaca kasoo horjeeda oo sheegay in hogaamiyaashi uu garab siiyey Xaabsade iyo maleeshiyadiisa sidii ay magaaladaa gacanta ugu dhigi lahaayeen. Inta badan hogaamiyaasha ururka RRA marka laga reebo Xaabsade ayaa waxay ku sheegeen imaanshaha Yusuf Indhocade ee Baydhabo mid duulaan ah ayagoo markaa digniin kusiiyey shalay in uu halkaa isaga baxo. Hogaamiyaasha Col.

Mar ay saxaafada magaalada Muqdisho ay wareysatay Yusuf Indhocade oo sheegay inuu ku sugan yahay Balidoogle ayaa sheegay inuu Baydhabo uu u tagay waan waan nabadeed iyo inuu kala dhexgalo dadka walaalaha ah ee dagaalamay, inkastoo uu ka gaabsaday inuu sheego cida ka codsatay hawshaasi uu faraha la galay. Yusuf Indhocade ayaa sheegay inuu ku guuldareystay waan waantii uu waday isla markaana imaanshihiisa loo arkay si khaldan, waa suu hadalka u dhigayee. "....Waan isaga soo kacay Baydhabo markii ay diideen dhex dhexaadinta.....Arrintaasi ayaga ayey hada u taal arrintaasi...." ayuu yiri Shiikh Yusuf Indhacade mar uu ka hadlay idaacadaha FMka ee Muqdisho. Yusuf Indhocade oo kamid ah hogaamiyaasha iskooda isugu magacaabay Guddoomiyaasha goobah ay heystaan ayaa marar badan lagu dhaliiceeyey inuu ka qeyb qaato dagaalo ka dhacay koonfurta Soomaaliya. Dagaaladii ugu danbeeyey ee ka dhaca gobalada Jubooyinka gaar ahaan J/Hoose ayaa lagu tuhunsan yahay in hogaamiyaasi iyo maleeshiyadiisa ay burbur iyo dhac baaxad leh u geysteen deegaano ku yaal J/Hoose oo ay kamid tahay magaalada Dhoobleey. Yusuf Indhocade oo wakhtigaa garab siinayey maleeshiyooyinka Isbaheysiga Dooxada Jubba ayaa hadana la sheegay inuu ka qeyb qaatay dagaalkii asbuucii tagay ka dhacay magaalada Baydhabo oo uu hada gacanta ku hayo ninka ay xulafada yihiin ee Maxamed Ibraahim Xaabsade.

Major quake off Indonesian coast Agencies Monday March 28, 2005 A large earthquake struck off Indonesia's Sumatra Island in the Andaman Sea today, triggering tsunami warnings in Thailand, India and Sri Lanka. The earthquake struck at 11.09 pm local time (0409 GMT) at a depth of nearly 19 miles and measured 8.2 on the Richter scale, the US Geological Survey said. The latest quake had the potential to cause a "widely destructive tsunami" and authorities should take "immediate action," including evacuating coastlines within 600 miles (1,000 km) of the epicentre, the Pacific tsunami warning centre said. An official said that dozens of people could be buried under the remains of hundreds of collapsed buildings on the Indonesian island of Nias, close to the epicenter of the earthquake. "Hundreds of buildings have been damaged or have collapsed. People who were standing fell over. We're not sure about casualties, but there may be dozens of people buried in the rubble," said Agus Mendrofa, deputy district head on Nias island which was nearest to the epicenter of the quake. Nias, a renowned surfing spot, was badly hit by the December 26 tsunami disaster. At least 340 residents of Nias died and 10,000 were left homeless. In Banda Aceh, the Sumatran city that was hit hardest by December's disaster that left nearly 300,000 people dead or missing across Asia, the quake cut electricity and thousands of people poured into the streets. The quake lasted for about two minutes - far longer than most of the daily aftershocks that have rocked the northern Sumatra island since December 26. "People are still traumatised, still scared, they are running for higher ground," said Feri, a 24-year-old recovery volunteer who goes by one name. Indonesia's state news agency, Antara, said there were no immediate reports of damages. An Associated Press reporter in Banda Aceh said that people who had fled - including many survivors living in refugee camps since the December disaster - started moving back into their homes after the quake ended. The quake was felt as far away as Malaysia, about 300 miles from the epicenter, sending residents fleeing their apartments and hotels in Kuala Lumpur and Penang after authorities activated fire alarms. Thailand urged people living along parts of its west coast, including tourists on the resort island of Phuket, to evacuate while Malaysia issued a warning to coastal residents. "About 3,000 to 4,000 tourists and locals have been evacuated from Patong and Kamala beaches to higher places," Phuket deputy governor Wichai Buapradit told Reuters. "We've told them to take their valuable belongings and to go to higher places," he added. Authorities in India's Andaman and Nicobar islands, north of the epicentre, issued a preliminary tsunami warning as did the federal government in New Delhi. Sirens were ringing in the eastern Sri Lankan town of Trincomalee and many coastal areas were evacuated, residents said.

Quake hits; tsunami feared From correspondents in Jakarta March 29, 2005 From: Agence France-Presse Shaken ... Residents flee after tremors strike / AP Advertisement: TENS of thousands of people fled their homes as a massive earthquake hit off the coast of the Indonesian island of Sumatra this morning. The massive earthquake killed dozens of people and destroyed hundreds of homes in the main town on Indonesia's Nias island overnight, a local government official told Metro TV. "I can guarantee that dozens have died," Agus Mendrofa, the deputy mayor of Gunungsitoli town, said. Warnings of a possible tsunami have been issued in Madagascar and the island of Mauritius after an earthquake measuring over 8.0 on the Richter scale struck off the Indonesian island of Sumatra, officials said. The earthquake caused a small tsunami on the Cocos Islands in the Indian Ocean, the US National Weather Service's Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said. The Cocos lie to the south of the epicentre of the quake, which the Hawaii bsed Tsunami Centre has put at Magnitude 8.5. "There has been no major tsunami observed near the epicentre," the Tsunami Centre said. "There was, however, a small tsunami observed on the Cocos tide gauge." A Tsunami Centre official, Robert Cessaro, of the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre told CNN the quake was likely to have directed any tsunami waves to the south in the direction of Mauritius. He said the massive quake that struck the region on December 26 was now known to have directed most of its energy toward the north and that had relieved the underground stresses in that direction. The latest quake was believed to have sent its main energy in the opposite direction, toward the Indian Ocean islands of Mauritius and Rodrigues, he said. "I think it's very likely that it produced a tsunami but we don't have any information about it because we don't have any water level gauges in that area. But something this size is likely to have produced a tsunami," Cessaro said. "But because we think the event probably ruptured to the south, the beam of energy, rather than propagating towards the central Indian Ocean, may very well have propagated towards the south, towards Mauritius and Rodrigues," he said. The tremblor - measuring up to 8.5 on the Richter scale - sparked panic in Malaysia and Singapore, as well as Sumatra, when it struck around 11.15pm (2.15am today AEST). The United States' Geological Survey (USGS) told CNN television there was a risk of a tsunami and that warnings had been sent to the region. It said the quake's epicentre was 201km west-north-west of Sibolga, Sumatra, or 1416km north-west of the Indonesian capital of Jakarta, close to where a 9.0 quake struck on December 26 sparking a massive tsunami that left nearly 300,000 people dead of missing. The US National Weather Service's Pacific Tsunami Warning centre, based in Hawaii, said today's tremblor had the potential to cause a "widely destructive tsunami" and authorities should take "immediate action," including evacuating coastlines within 1000km of the epicentre. Malaysia urged residents along parts of its west coast to evacuate to higher areas. Thailand, India and Sri Lanka also immediately issued tsunami warnings in coastal areas. Sirens were ringing in the eastern Sri Lankan town of Trincomalee, residents said. Tens of thousands of people ran out of their homes in many parts of Sumatra, and in Singapore and Malaysia. But there were no immediate reports of casualties. "It was very strong," said a telephone operator in the Sumatran city of Medan, in western Indonesia. "We all ran out of the building." An non-government organisation (NGO) official in Banda Aceh, the town worst hit by the December 26 tsunami, sent out a telephone message saying thousands of people fled their homes and headed for higher ground after feeling what he described as "a very damn big earthquake". Panic spread in many areas along the west coast of Malaysia, the Bernama news agency said. "It felt stronger than on December 26," said Arumugam Gopal, a resident of the town of Penang. USGS spokesman Don Blakeman said today's quake was considered a "great earthquake" because it was larger than a magnitude 8. He said it was an aftershock from December's temblor but was a "very serious earthquake in its own right". The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said the quake had the "potential to generate a widely destructive tsunami in the ocean or seas near the earthquake". However, "Authorities can assume the danger has passed if no tsunami waves are observed in the region near the epicentre within three hours of the earthquake," it added. - with Reuters

^^^^^^ M- Lol. Many thanks for your compliments dear brother. To be called an old man while still relatively young is quite uplifting. I also will take your advice and pray hard, for one has to work for the here after, when us weak mortals will face our maker. The outburst at the middle and end of your diatribe was not befitting a man who I thought was mentally strong. As for the fact you defend the indefensible, I pity your lame excuses. Brother our cause is one and the same, the restoration of our nation. Let’s not delude ourselves for if Somalia was good we would not be in exile. Mogadishu is big enough for every Somali to live in, its all about managing our resources and not making the mistakes of the past. Salaan

xiinfaniin , many thanks I stand corrected even though I dont agree with the millitary side of the so-called Al-Itixad, however the name can mean different things to difefrent people. It wont hapen again from now on they will be refered to as clan courts..

^^^^^^ First of all I am not a member of any bloc least of all SRRC. I am also not part of those fighting in Somalia, nor do I want to be part of it. I am an observer analysing events as they happen and neither have any say nor exert any influence on these events. As for who wins, that will depend on who the population supports. I am confident given the choice between the ever lost marauding Mooriyaan and the government people of the region will chose the government. As for the professed valour of your kinsmen Inda Cade and senior JVA, I think you are mistaken if you think bulliying, enslaving, raping, looting the land is in fact cowardice and a sin. Yes indeed, Kismayu is run by JVA and Baidoa is today in the hands of Inda Cade, however neither the population nor recent history will support the illusion that you will be able to keep all these towns. What happened to Aydeed Sr, Morgan, Jess and even Siyad Barre shows that an oppressor will not last long. Senior JVA, Inda Cade, Xasan Dahri Aways are all from one clan, they dominate other people land, they are unjust and some suggest criminal by nature. This simple summary dictates their days are number, for the people have a way out, and the bully will indeed be bullied.

^^^ LOL, you said it, its on the record, dont try and be stuborn about it, when wrong one should be able to admit it. You insulted a whole town and people and region, yet you have the chance to correct yourself, I suggest you take it...
