^^No it proves we were right then and are right now..

Lois, the security situation is being tackled, difficult as it may be steps have been taken to secure the whole country. The TFG held a landmark peace conference, held in the capital and attended by every clan, that took 45 days to complete. Rome was not built in a day, all these initiatives are important. Securing the capital, building the security forces, institutional building, the new passport and the diplomatic missions. Thus your question are valid, and my answer is simple, all these projects will lead to the restoration of peace and national governance, insha Allah. As for the Ambassador, I welcome his appointment and wishing him luck.

^^^During the Clan Courts era journalist were killed in broad daylight. Remmeber the Swedish Cameraman and the BBC reporter? Dont tell fairytales adeer.

^^^No a simple yes worked. But if you want me to expand?????

Lois, you do have a point, Mr Looyaan should have staid in the uniform and continued his job. However the issue was political and it might have been his choice to take an esier option and take the uniform of. As for diplomatic missions, yes they are essential we need support from the international community and this is a vital function to restoring the peace. The more support the esier to tackling the security issue. This government is skin and bones, but its getting stronger, the heart, lungs and other organs are working, soon it will be in the gym working out.

^^^lol ok sis.

^^^I can answer for the man, If I may, YES.

The man was the head of police, he did a great job for the nation. He is an educated and a respected fellow. What is a diplomat any way? A an individual who can represent the nation abroad. Mr Looyaan is such an individual. A great move. What is important here is that the diplomatic missions are opening up again. Ambassadors and diplomatic missions are part of the vital organs of any national government, pardon my Welsh but what would people say if we had no diplomatic missions.

^^^It must be supported, I know the community is raising money in Minnesota. Thus we must all take part.

President Yusuf is so important these days, that any thing he might have said to a man who is upset at not getting a cabinet post, is worthy of all this attention. Mowlid Macaane is upset, yet Dalxa a man from the same clan is not, even stated that Macaane's comments were incorrect. I always liked Mr Macaane's bluntness. Anyhow Yey is still central to all of us, after all he is our beloved President.

Dr Galbeyte, a nice all to familiar name to me. Galmudug is a great idea, a welcome development and insha Allah it will succeed. The issue is not land, its to develop two key areas. The ancient port city of Hobyo [sea & airport] with roads linking it to Galkacyu and the rest of the towns in the region. The other issue is more diaspora members from this region should go back and help, with education, health and local development. Anyhow welcome ina Abti , and hope your stay is pleasent.

^^^Indeed, did the Minister who they met even mention them? This province governor Riyaale is a genius. He gets paid more than Bush & Brown and does nothing.

They said, the UN would not lift the embargo, that Uganda would not support the AU mission, that said Burundi would not send troops, now do they doubt the Nigerians? They always doubt. Great news indeed.

Great step, first in many insha Allah. Thanks Dabshid for the post.

^^^Here to help brother. Somalithinker, we dont need to beat you Misguided brothers are after all our brothers. Peace is the best hope, if it comes to war, no one really wins. We all lose. Though I am kinda shocked by all the homo stuff. Shocking indeed.

Emperor, you have these clowns defending Homosexuality because it might get them recognition. Desperation indeed to let those groups get a base in Hargaysa.

Where is Red Sea & Northerner and all the religious secessionists? NGOONG. I came across this article a few days backa nd found it quite ammusing. Secessionits new hero get ruffed up in Moscow Now getting military support from Ethiopia, Uganda or anyone else, is it worse than getting gay support and hugging and housing them in Hargaysa

^^^Secessionists are a confused bunch, my job is to highlight the absurdity in Somali politics. In terms of military might or number, one should not worry at all.

Conclusion From the main stream Somali Muslim perspective homosexuality is seen as immoral and a blunt contravention of Islam and traditional Somali culture. Having said that, an individual breach of moral teachings is between that individual and his Creator. However, when extremist groups within a Muslim Community recruits non-Muslims, who champion non-Islamic life styles, to promote a Somali constituency project (Somaliland Recognition) whose national symbols include a flag with Quranic verses, it is appropriate to raise the red flag on this affront and insult to the Somali people. The people of Somaliland deserves to know the unIslamic UnSomali manner in which their name is used or misused by some diasporas-based fringe elements who are encouraged and coached by extremist clan chauvinist politicians, such as Faisal Warrabe of the UCID party. It seems this misguided group will do everything to promote a divisive pipedream project that sure, if realized, will bring conflict and mayhem for the long suffering people of the Somali Republic and in the process de-stabilize the relatively peaceful northern regions of the country.
