Somalia: Sh. Aweys is a hostage to Al Shabaab, says Indha'ade 14 Feb 14, 2010 - 1:15:04 PM Somalia’s State Minister for Defense, Sheikh Yusuf Mohamed Siad aka Indha'ade said Hizbul Islam leader Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys is a hostage of Al-Shabaab militants. Addressing reporters in Mogadishu, Indhaade said the Islamist leader is in great danger of being killed by Al-Shabaab, urging him to focus on his life than declaring war gaiants the government. “Sheikh Hassan is an Al-Shabaab hostage. He should put his focus on Al-Shabaab who tried several times to eliminate him,” he said in response to Sheikh Aweys’s rhetoric war gesture against the government. Sheikh Aweys has recently declared holy war against the UN-backed government and its supporters. The state minister for defense also talked about a lawmaker who joined Al-Shabaab. “Salah Badbado and other officials who are still in the government had links with Al-Shabaab and Hizbul Islam, so if he decided to join them officially, then we can’t say he ditched the government,” he said. On Saturday, Lawmaker Salah Nur Ismael aka Badbado, who is from northern Somalia (Somaliland), announced in a press conference that he has ditched the government for the militant group. Meanwhile, Indha’ade announced that the government would still pursue its plans to flush out insurgents from the regions. GAROWE ONLINE

^^^ one expected better from JB, first Maryan Mursal now it's the red cross? Anywho young Xudeeei brought them, one hopes back to reality. Oh one hopes.

Che, the Fake Islamist are doing a fine job, Sharif Ahmed forgot he was a "shiekh" and Fuad Shangoole forgot he was a human being. Poor people indeed, though it's clear the fake groups are losing power, when you start with war and end up demonstrating there is something strange going on.

Is the story even true, the UK newspapers do exagerate, and the brother was wrong to do this, he should have made sure not to take that shift if it would collide with the prayer, otherwise now they will have an excuse not to hire "Muslim" drivers and so on.. Prayer is essential, but one must prepare for it.

Suldan Mohamoud Ali Shirre's dynasty still exists today, I have never heard of anyone from Hargaysa even comparable in stature to the late kings of the North East and the Sayid.. Hey but we have ina Gare, and NGOONGE, no doubt..

^^^Adeer the Garad had more than 70 children in his life time, and today they are a huge family, thus spare us the nonsense, the British defeated him and no one else.

China Woos Africa — And Not Just For Its Resources Workers at Imboulou Dam, in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The 120-megawatt power plant is funded by the China National Mechanical and Equipment Corporation. On Oct. 20, China announced, almost casually, that it was canceling 150 items of maturing government debt owed to it by 32 African countries. The announcement came a few days before a meeting between China's top legislator Wu Bangguo and Kenneth Marende, the Speaker of Kenya's National Assembly, to discuss cooperation between the two countries. Further, on Nov. 8, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao was to attend the opening ceremony of the 4th Ministerial Conference of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation to be held in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. Top-level meetings between China's leaders and their African counterparts have been occurring at the frequency of at least one every month. What is Beijing up to? When China declared 2006 to be the "Year of Africa," hosted 48 African nations at the annual 2006 China-Africa summit and rolled out the red carpet for 17 African heads of state, we assumed it was all about gaining access to oil and minerals to fuel China's awesome economic growth. But there is much more going on than a meet, greet and grab from the African continent. China has big economic plans and ambitions in Africa that go beyond oil and minerals. While much of the world still views Africa as a basket-case continent, Beijing is thinking ahead and busy establishing a foothold in Africa's potentially large consumer markets. (See pictures of how the Chinese are changing life in Africa.) Our common impression of Africa owes more to Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness than we would like to let on: Africa is inscrutable, wild, primitive and decades away from genuine modernization. Like the European businessmen in Conrad's 1902 novel, we assume Africa's only assets come from the land or beneath it. In the Heart of Darkness it was ivory. Now it is oil and minerals. But China has caught on to something that eludes most governments and companies in the West. Chinese state-owned and private enterprises believe African consumers could be the great untapped gold mine. Beijing's engagement with African leaders and governments is increasingly about ensuring that Chinese firms are best placed to sell their products when Africans start buying. (Read "Africa: Open for Business.") While India is seen as a potential mass-consumer market in the future, statistics for Africa (if treated as one entity) are remarkably similar. For example, the African economy has been experiencing similar growth rates to India's of 6% to 7% over the past decade, and will likely see 3% to 4% growth in 2009 — impressive in the current global environment. GDP per capita in Africa is similar to that of India and, like India, the population in Africa is growing and will be similar in size to China's population in several decades. Vijay Mahajan, author of Africa Rising, says there are 50 million to 150 million economic élites in Africa with similar spending power to middle classes in the West. More importantly, there are 350 million to 500 million people in the African aspirational classes — from households with stable jobs — that resemble counterparts in China and India being courted by Western firms. These African aspirants drink Coca-Cola, want mobile phones and yearn to own a car or motorcycle. The West focuses on the bottom half of Africans living in appalling poverty; Beijing is looking at the other half who might soon buy Chinese-made T-shirts, shoes and bicycles. China's Ministry of Commerce, through banks and export agencies, is offering cheap loans and tax and export credits to Chinese state-owned companies seeking to build a base in Africa. Incentives are given to Chinese manufacturing and retail businesses in addition to exploration and construction companies. In return for so-called "no-strings-attached" aid and cheap loans to African countries, Beijing expects privileged access to oil and resources, political support in institutions like the U.N., and African governments — be they good, bad or despotic — to give Chinese companies the first opportunities to reach local consumer markets. There are weaknesses to Beijing's great plan. For example, cheap Chinese goods flooding the continent sacrifice African jobs, sparking a backlash against the Chinese presence. Corruption is serious, institutions are weak and political risk in various African countries remains high, meaning the possibility of social and economic breakdown is real. No one will bet their house on continued growth in many African countries. But the West should take note: China has a plan to seize the advantage should the African consumer take flight.

China & India are the alternative to the West for Africa...

My first question is how can one in the US view this show? I have not seen a certain NHS Doctor in years.. As for my questions, let me give you the premise first. In the US they advertise popular drugs, dramatically describing the positive effects and at the end usually rapidly skimming through the side effects. One popular drug is named Cialis and it "helps" males who suffer from erectile deficiencies. Now on the add, it is mentioned that one must seek medical help if one gets an erection lasting more than four hours. Dear Dr, how does one get an erection lasting four hours? Thank you…

^^^Let the ladies wear what they want. Tight jeans or a Burka, the individual should know why they do these things. If one belive its hip, and the other an article of faith, why not let them? Also why not ban the Bikini, as well? It shows way too much and does not protect the skin sufficiantly, imagine all the skin cancer cases you could prevent by banning such clothing? Come on...

“In peace prepare for war, in war prepare for peace” Sun Tzu I am no sage, nor is my prediction a verdict of heaven. However the basic truth, that nothing is forever, and the dramatic shifts in the political environment in Somalia, these and other trends, make the Duke believe that the period of civil war will be over shortly. As a people we must plan for this eventuality, and not just hope and wait for it. Valuable time should not be wasted when the time comes. Also what is your contribution aside from making the Duke, the central theme of your response? Surely you can do better than that…

Peacenow, adeer no one attacked you, you seem to get upset when you are challenged to explain yourself. Somalia is not unique and is going through what many nations have gone through, its in transition, and while some of its problems are no doubt self inflicted much has been engineered by outsiders, notably the West. No adeer China did not come through a strong leadership, and Mao leadership cost the lives of millions of poor Chinese. Thus again lad, in your opinion what is it that we need as a people?,think before you get angry and utter meaniningless waffle. PS: If you want to help the Somali’s, start with not insulting them or highlighting only the negative aspect of their current existence.
