Thus its old Clan spokesman who now complains about young kids being sent after him, he never complained when innocent men were being targeted outside Mosques by the confused group...

****** Council spokesman 'threatened' by al Shabaab 5 Oct 5, 2008 - 4:00:45 PM MOGADISHU, Somalia Oct 5 (Garowe Online) - The spokesman for a self-appointed Somali clan union – the ****** Tradition and Unity Council – told reporters Sunday that council members have been threatened by local insurgents. Ahmed Dirie, spokesman for the ****** Council, said al Shabaab fighters had issued an order calling for the death of council members. Ahmed Dirie "I don't know what this group [al Shabaab] who threaten us want, but they are not ones working for the religion or the interests of the Somali people," Dirie said. He accused al Shabaab spokesman Muktar Robow "Abu Mansur" of being "an obstacle" to the delivery of humanitarian aid in Mogadishu and the central regions. Dirie said that, while airplanes and foreigners land safely at airports in Bay and Bakool regions, "Abu Mansur has refused for airports in Mogadishu and the central regions to operate and it appears to me there are hidden agendas." Mogadishu and the central regions are predominately home to ****** clansmen, while Abu Mansur is a member of the Digil and Mirifle clans that traditionally inhabit Bay and Bakool regions, including the town of Baidoa. Al Shabaab insurgents have targeted Mogadishu's airport with mortars at least four times since September 16, when the guerrilla group issued a threat to shoot down airplanes using the airport. Airport-related violence has killed upwards of 80 people and helped drive a deeper wedge among the insurgents, who were already reeling from the armed resistance's split into pro-peace and pro-war camps. [ READ: Islamic Courts, al Shabaab ‘on verge of war’] ****** Council members have opposed the airport attacks, along with airline companies, civil society groups and the Islamic Courts. "If we are killed, we were already waiting for death. But those who pointed us out and use small children who don’t know anything [to kills us] will follow us and will be killed," Dirie said defiantly. Recently, al Shabaab member Fu'ad Shangole declared inside Mogadishu's Bakara Market that ****** Council members will be shot after accusing them of "working to divide up the muqawama," a reference to the armed resistance. It is a change of fortune for Mr. Ahmed Dirie, who was arrested in November 2007 by the Somali government for allegedly supporting the insurgents. He spent more than two months in jail. In recent weeks, Dirie and ****** Council Chairman Mohamed Hassan Haad led a council delegation that visited towns between Galkayo and Beletwein. Local sources reported that the council elders pushed for the establishment of a regional government for ******-inhabited areas in the central regions during their road trip, but received "mixed reaction" from region to region. According to insiders, the idea for a ******-based regional administration originated after the Djibouti Agreement between the Somali government and an Islamist-led opposition alliance. A former government official in Puntland, who is an insightful analyst of southern politics, tells Garowe Online that "a process of Hawiyism" is going on in Mogadishu and the central regions. "The intention is to drive out al Shabaab from ******-dominated areas...al Shabaab's major bases are in the Jubba regions, the Shabelle regions and also in Bay and Bakool," said our source, who did not want to be named for security-related reasons. He described al Shabaab fighters as "without clan," while noting that the Islamic Courts factions were originally conceived in the 1990s as clan-based courts protecting sections of Mogadishu. According to the analyst, "c lan-based groups within the Islamic Courts umbrella now support the peace process and want a share in the government, a move that largely alienates al Shabaab."

A. Dirie: Al-Shabaab ayaa noo hanjabtey 5 Oct 5, 2008 - 5:55:15 AM Afhayeenka gole isku magacaabay dhaqanka ****** Axmed Diiriye Cali ayaa si weyn u dhaleeceeyay ururka hubeysan ee Al-shabaab, wuxuuna ku eedeeyay inay dhibaateynayaan shacabka, ayna doonayaan inay iyaga dilayaan. "Adeer, ma garan karno kooxdan noo hanjabtay waxay doonayaan, mana ahan kuwo ka shaqeynaya diinta iyo danta shacabka Soomaaliyeed" ayuu saxaafada gudaha u sheegay Axmed Diiriye. Diiriye, wuxuu sheegay in Sheekh Mukhtaar Rooboow [Abu-Mansor] oo ah afhayeenka Al-shabaab uu diiday in gargaar la gaarsiiyo shacabka ku dhaqan gobolada dhexe ee Somalia; taasna ay tahay mid uu ku beegsanayo dad gaar ah. "Garoomada ku yaala Bay iyo Bakool waxaa kasoo daga diyaarado iyo dad shisheeye ah, garoonka Muqdisho iyo kuwa Gobolada dhexena wuu diiday Abu-Mansor inay shaqeeyaan, taasi waxay noola muuqataa mid dano gaar ah laga leeyahay" ayuu yiri Axmed Diiriye. Sidoo kale, wuxuu sheegay in Abu-Mansor uu ogaado in dadka ku nool gobolada dhexe ee uu u diiday gargaar in la gaarsiiyo ay yihiin bani'aadam isaga la mid ah, hadii uu ku adkeysto diidmadiisana ay iska dhicin doonaan. "Waxaa jirta in rag ka tirsan kooxda aan la garanayn halka ay u jeedo iyo waxa ay doonayso [Al-shabaab] ay ku baaqeen in la dilayo odayaasha ******, iyaguse ay diyaar u yihiin inay dhintaan" ayuu yiri Axmed Diiriye oo intaas ku daray: "Hadii nala dilo geeri waan u joognay, balse ha ogaadaan kuwa farta nagu soo fiiqaya oo noo adeegsanaya ciyaalka yaryar ee aan waxba ogeyn inay iyaguna naga dambeynayn oo la dili doono". Axmed Diiriye, wuxuu sheegay in odayaashoodan ay maleysanayeen in loo abaalgudi doono, balse loo hanjabay iyadoo la ogyahay dhibaatooyinkii ay soo mareen. Sheekh Fu'aad Shangole oo ka tirsan xoogaga Al-shabaab ayaa dhawaan ka sheegay Suuqa Bakaaraha in la toogto odayasha ******, isagoo ku eedeeyay inay ka shaqeynayaan arimo ay ku burburinayaan muqaawamada. Hadalkan uu Axmed Diiriye ku eedeeyay Ururka Al-shabaab ayaa ah mid aan horay looga baran; wuxuuna ku tilmaamay kooxdan inay yihiin kuwo aan doonayn nabad ka dhalata Somalia, isagoo ugu baaqay inay nabada dhinacooda ka raacaan.

How the attacks helped: Al Shabaab & the awakening Some of the smooth talking members of SOL, had a problem with an anlyusis that the Duke made a while back that the senseless mindless attacks of the Al Shabaab and their threats against civilian use of the airport would strengthen the common sense brigade which makes up the TFG. “How” they screamed and scratched their aged gray hairs unable to fathom how basic cause and effect works. Well the international support has been gathering for the TFG the IGAD meeting in Nairobi. However a striking resultof their latest action is the internal warfare that has erupted between the armed “opposition” at the heart of it Al Shabaab has split into clans with Fuad Shangool and Abu Mansuur being isolated, blamed and soon targeted by their fellow anti government looting brigade. Insuregents have split into clans, minorities and unwanted targeted by Ahmed Diriye and his group Now back to the news..

All smiles for Obama in the sunshine state Florida was the state that broke Democrats' hearts in 2000 after a heart-stopping recount favoured George W Bush over Al Gore. Eight years later Barack Obama is surging ahead in the polls, and his supporters are dreaming of revenge in one of the crucial battlegrounds of the election. A worldwide economic crisis can make a lot of difference to a voter. Or at least it has done to Isabelle Murawski. For the past two elections, the pensioner has reliably voted for George W Bush, casting her ballot in Florida's Broward County, one of the epicentres of the voting debacle that saw Bush win the White House in 2000. But now Murawski is going to vote for Barack Obama. 'I am supporting Obama, I think,' she said, while strolling in Florida's warm sunshine in the coastal resort town of Hollywood. 'It's the economy first and foremost. Everyone I know is worried about their pensions.' Guardian

I think people are over playing this issue, is it a Solution to annex Somalia by Kenya and Ethiopia? How will that effect the said nations??? Ethiopia is a majority Muslim nation add another 10 million Somalis' and the balance will tilt towrads the Muslims who will demand either through the ballot or the bullet to claim the leadership. Kenya has a large Muslim population also and thus from the Coast, Mogadishu, Kismayu and Mombasa [as the map suggests] will become a Muslim region within Kenya including the large NFD. What the Somali's will bring is their defiance which will be injected into the Muslims of those said countries. Thus while this sounds great in Niarobi is not practicle and will not help the mentioned countries. The Tigray have always understood this and they do not even day dream about annexing Somalia, that means and end to their dominance of the larger Oromo, Amhara and even Afar... Thus what we need to do as solution is fix our main problems. Lack of grass roots admins, not a single city from Hargaysa to Bosaso has a good working admin Corruption, nepotisam and the cult of perosnality We need to move away from Gen, Col, President and even Shiekh to groups that can bring effective order. Discipline our people tend to be carelss and lack discipline, we dont plann for the future and we are eratic when it comes to our own interest. This is our land, our sea and our people..

I am talking about American voters saxib.. The public is hurting right now, their sons are at war, their 401K's and pensions are depleted and their live is harder that it was 8 years ago. From education to forecolusres to the pump... Thats why Obama has a greater chance than Kerry or Gore.. The largest block are the youth, who use cell phones and thus have not been picked up by the landline using polls Also while many are still racist you have the Blacks, the Latino's and other minorities hyped about this candidate. You also have the liberl well educated masses who are tired of the cultural wars of Karl Rove et al.. Adeer you are my lad nah mean God forbid Mccsame becomes President..

This is the funny part.... Al Shabaab reportedly expelled Islamic Courts fighters from the Jubba regions, including the port city of Kismayo, as the internal dispute worsened. In response, the Islamic Courts "barred" al Shabaab from using Mogadishu's Bakara Market, which the Somali government has long accused of being a major base for insurgents. Barred from the Bakara, thus its trrue the mortars come from there? Comedians and utter ******..

Somalia: Islamic Courts, al Shabaab 'on verge of war' 4 Oct 4, 2008 - 4:41:20 PM MOGADISHU, Somalia Oct 4 (Garowe Online) - Reliable sources in Somalia's capital Mogadishu confidentially tell Garowe Online that insurgent groups waging war against the country's foreign-backed interim government are "on the verge" of open hostilities. Relations between Islamic Courts fighters and al Shabaab gunmen worsened following al Shabaab's September threat to shoot down airplanes landing at Mogadishu's Aden Adde International Airport. [ READ: 5 killed in Mogadishu as airport bombed] "The dispute is on the verge of war because there is no other visible solution," said an Islamic Courts source in Mogadishu who did not want to be named. The source indicated that the biggest problem is al Shabaab's "opposition to peace" and the mortar raids on Mogadishu airport whenever a military or civilian airliner attempts to land. Since September 16, when al Shabaab issued the threat, the airport has been targeted with mortars at least four times, leading to the government and its foreign allies' heavy shelling of civilian areas like Bakara Market in response. However, a member of al Shabaab in Mogadishu accused the Islamic Courts of "wanting to destroy the [armed] struggle's successes." "We will never accept the [islamic] Courts' idea…our decision is to unite our strength so our goal of becoming the leaders of this country [somalia] can be attained," said the al Shabaab source, who wished to remain anonymous due to the sensitivity of the matter. Other Islamist sources in Mogadishu and Kismayo tell Garowe Online that the two insurgent groups – Islamic Courts and al Shabaab – have already taken steps to divide up the fighting ranks. Al Shabaab reportedly expelled Islamic Courts fighters from the Jubba regions, including the port city of Kismayo, as the internal dispute worsened. In response, the Islamic Courts "barred" al Shabaab from using Mogadishu's Bakara Market, which the Somali government has long accused of being a major base for insurgents. Islamic Courts leaders, including Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed and Eritrea-based Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys, have publicly called on al Shabaab to stop the airport attacks. Sheikh Sharif inked a peace deal with the Somali government in June, but Sheikh Aweys has opposed the agreement on grounds it provides no timetable for the withdrawal of Ethiopian forces. Al Shabaab, however, has altogether rejected the peace deal and refused to recognize the exiled opposition group, which includes Sheikh Sharif and Sheikh Aweys as leaders. In June 2006, when the Islamic Courts Union captured Mogadishu from U.S.-backed warlords, al Shabaab formed the core of the Islamists' fighting force. The Ethiopian invasion later that year dislodged the Islamists from power, breaking up their ranks into small fighting units largely responsible for an ongoing insurgency. In March this year, the U.S. government officially designated al Shabaab a terrorist organization and by May 1, al Shabaab's most well-known leader, Sheikh Aden Hashi Ayrow, was killed in an American air strike in central Somalia.

Mucaaradka oo dagaal qarka u saaran 4 Oct 4, 2008 - 9:10:20 AM Ilo wareedyo lagu kalsoon yahay oo ay Garowe Online heshay ayaa sheegaya in khilaaf u dhexeeya Midowga Maxkamadaha iyo ururka mayalka adag ee Al-shabaab uu gaaray meel xun. Ilahaan xog-ogaalka ah ayaa waxay sheegayaan in labada dhinac uu khilaafkoodu xoogeystay tan iyo markii ay Al-shabaab ku dhawaaqeen inuu xiran yahay garoonka caalamiga ee Muqdisho [Adan Adde International Airport]. "Khilaafku wuxuu qarka u saaran yahay in la dagaalamo, waayo xal kale oo muuqda ma jiro" sidaa waxaa inoo sheegay mas'uul ka tirsan Maxkamadaha oo magaciisa qariyay, wuxuuna intaas ku daray: "Arinta aan aadka u dhibsanayno waa xirnaashaha garoonka Muqdisho iyo in laga shaqeeyo dhibaateynta shacabka; nabada oo la ishortaagana waa ka mid waxa khilaafka sii huriyay". Sidoo kale Mas'uul ka tirsan Al-shabaab oo isaguna codsaday inaan magaciisa shaacin ayaa sheegay in Midowga Maxkamaduhu ay damacsan yihiin in halgalkii lasoo galay ay afka ciidda loo daraan, taasoo aan aad uga horjeedno. "Go'aankeenu waa inaan awoodeena oo dhan isugu geyno sidii uu hirgal ku noqon lahaa hadafkeena oo ah inaan dalkaan madax ka noqono, mana dhacayso inaan qaadano mid la mid ah fikirka Maxkamadaha" ayuu yiri mas'uulkaan ka tirsan Al-shabaab. Labada dhinac ayaa qarka u saaran inay rasaas ka dhex-qaraxdo; iyadoo ururka hubeysan ee Al-shabaab uu ahaa garabkii Milateri ee Maxkamadaha, balse uu ka go'ay markii laga itaal roonaaday mucaaradka horaantii 2007. Ururka Al-shabaab ayaa ku amaray xoogaga Maxkamaduhu inay isaga baxaan Gobolada Jubooyinka, iyadoo taas badalkeed Al-shabaab laga saaray suuqa weyn ee Bakaaraha oo mucaaradku uu ku awood badan yahay. Xiisadaha u dhexeeya labada qaybood ayaa ku baahay hacabka Muqdisho, waxaana dagaal dhexmara uu noqon karaan mid aan mudo badan qaadan, sida laga soo xigtay ilo lagu kalsoon yahay. Garoweonline.com

^^^ Breaking New Somaliland is getting recognised by Western Sahara Hold it saxib, you aint no John Stewart, Sean Hanity, Keiths main rival now thats a thought..

^^^Yup you eat the tavellers Donkeys huh brother

^^^Layzy girl is more like MSNBC and not Fox, she is our keith Olberman and you are the darkside... But hey if you say so old boy, Layzy knows how to deal with this situation, I will let her continue...

Thus the report/review is making these claims because the pirates and the President are from the same clan. Wow what research kind of like the tabloid report on Channel four and the other famous report about how Somali's in south East London eat all the Donkeys in the area and complaints were made by the travel community who's donkeys they were.... Fantastic...

^^^Yeah of course, like ermm, Somaliland can get recognition by way of the international community, spot on dude....Its so simple isnt ittt dude..

The man needs to be told that Somalia as a state will last longer than Kenya and Ethiopia. The Somali's are one people with one religion and one culture. What we are going through is no more than what the French, Germans and other "civilised" races did. Its a dark period in our history. Now consider there is a civil war in Kenya or Ethiopia? Will they survive as we did, or would they make Rawanda a a nice day dream.. Annexe Somalia my ***.

Horn, adeer the TFG is the least of our worries. We need jobs, better education opportunities for our children, we need affordable healthcare and a government that will help the average American who is worried about the economy and the Wall Street meltdown. We need change adeer, we need a second New Deal a new FDR and that’s why so many are putting their hopes on Barack and Biden. Will he bring back the JVA, I don’t think so. .... Baadiyiyow, Adeer the Bradley effect was before Hurricane Obama made land fall. You have the Democrats pissed at the last 8 years of George W and Republican rule. You have the nation tired of the war, scared of the economic meltdown, ordinary folks are losing their jobs, their homes and their retirement savings, this is the climate which Obama has found himself he represents change and the public wants change. This is historic my lad, Barry is gonna make history saxib. Whats the alternative to Obama/Biden? John Mccain and his parrot from Alaska.
