  1. Just dreamy delusions I say!. Only those who are trully men in the traditional sense can udertake this testing journey----- not one that will get a permission
  2. Xiin In the UK where you study matters alot rather that what you have studied in so fas as securing well paying jobs (unless you want to bome a doc or engineer etc bythewhy contrary to the popular belief being engineer does not pay that much in comparison to other professions: banking, finance, legal, PR, PE etc). I know philosophers, geography graduates and historians milking it at places like JP Morgan, Goldman, Mogan Stanley etc as financiers. It is all about what you like matey. If you study History of Art and are good at it you can make a killing by working high powered arty job! You study what you are passionate about Mr Yaab.
  3. Kashafa, NO, I was curious man. But truth to be told the Asmra group is nothing but a qabiil enterprise unless H group are the only patriotic clan out to safe Somalia a farfetched idea I must ponderously add. Duke Laqanyo does not deserve that post; you should be the Amb to South Afrique Duke! Duke, do you know the new Amb?
  4. Laqanyo is out and a Puntlander is in at the Safaarada Soomaliada Ethiopia.
  5. I have no excuse as Sheytan is imprisoned in god knows where so I should restrain
  6. Uuh! My dear lad paragon, on his high horse marching towards victorious liberation!!!. Brother, what is so unique about knowing these guys’s clans? Anyone who follows Somalia ‘politics’ will undoubted be well acquainted with these names unless one only follows hargeisaawi politics Most dearly lad, are reeking with ur that will make you politically vomit with disgust. Who do you think these guys are? Sharif Ahmed Col. Omar Hashi, Mohamed Ahmed Tarsan Hussein Aideed Yusuf "Indha Ade" Mohamed Siad Abdirahman Janakow, Indhocade? The issue is one of credibility brother. For these guys to ‘liberate’ ‘conquer’ Somalia, they would need the support of the majority of the people in Somalia thusly resurrecting politically bodies of the likes indhocade and making him in centre stage of this undertaking is not only foolish but horridly damaging. Further, his credentials as a warlord is only confined in what most people will regard a common thievery against the peace loving people of livers!. He let him men down in their most hour of need. He only commands the trust of his kinsmen bro; nothing else. If the group want to make the resistance a Hawwwiye Group then let us be honest about it. This is nothing but a complete failure. Weldone to Tarzan and his chaps.
  7. Arent they all the named individuals tol; kinsmen?
  8. US rendition on trial in Africa Image: CIA Factbook The US' war on terror practices come under fire in East Africa as a Kenyan court and rights groups set out to unmask a US-Kenya-Ethiopia-Somalia rendition circle. By Daniel Auma in Nairobi for ISN Security Watch (25/09/07) The hidden faces of Kenya's war on terror may soon be unmasked, as a High Court Judge and a number of Muslim rights groups and lawyers seek to crack the veil of secrecy behind a series of mysterious flights to Ethiopia and the US suspected of carrying out an illegal rendition campaign. A Kenyan judge has set the stage for a bruising encounter with the country's anti-terrorism chief on 8 October when Commandant of the Kenya Anti-Terrorism Police Unit Nicholas Kamwende will be quizzed on what he knows about the mysterious airlifts. The story behind a series of alleged secret flights to lawless Somalia, then to Ethiopia, and finally to US detention facilities, began on 7 January, when a war against suspected Islamic fundamentalists started in Somalia. At that time, Ethiopian troops were assuming control over the Somali capital Mogadishu after ousting Islamic fundamentalists against a backdrop of US air strikes in south-west Somalia. Ethiopian ground troops were taking part in one of the biggest military operations to be carried out by Washington in East Africa since its humiliating defeat in 1991. The Ethiopian operation, which enjoyed the support of US intelligence, showed that defeated Somali Islamist militias were fleeing to the port of Kismayo, toward Somali's southern tip, which borders Kenya. Kenyan authorities then made a series of arrests as part of a US-backed, four-nation (Kenya, US, Transitional Government of Somalia and US) military campaign in January against Somalia's Islamist militias, which Bush administration officials have linked to al-Qaida. At least 140 prisoners - including men and women of 17 nationalities and children as young as seven months - were held in Kenya for several weeks before most of them were transferred covertly to Somalia and Ethiopia, where they were held incommunicado. According to an Amnesty International report, at least 140 people were arrested by the Kenyan authorities while fleeing from Somalia. Among those arrested, 85 were "unlawfully" transferred to Ethiopia and Somalia, 27 were released from custody in Kenya and transferred to their country, one of them an Omani prince. Four were deported to the US. Ethiopian authorities have released 15 people since March, while 27 Kenyans are still missing. Four of those sent to Somalia were British citizens and have been deported. Among the thousands of people fleeing the fighting were two women, Halima Badrudine Hussein and her three children and Sophia Abdul Nasir. As the convoy of fleeing women neared Kiunga, near the border with Kenya, US intelligence was hot on their trail. Bashir Ahmed Maktal, a Kenyan who had crossed over to the Somali side of the border before the crisis peaked, was also returning home to Kenya at the Liboi entry point. Amir Mohammed Meshal, an Egyptian-born US citizen, was apprehended at the same crossing by Kenyan authorities and swiftly flown to Ethiopia, where he is facing a military tribunal. The women and the two men are just a few of the known faces of at least 140 people who allegedly have been brutally interrogated in Kenya, secretly airlifted to Ethiopia and left to languish in Ethiopian cells, from where they have only managed to contact Muslim rights groups occasionally. But a determined group of Kenyan Muslim rights activists who have vowed to test the east African nation's legal system and its war on terror have launched a petition against these renditions. 'Proxy hostages' The first battle opens in the private chambers of Justice John Dulu, who has warned that he would issue an arrest warrant for the chief of the anti-terror police if he failed to respect the 8 October summons to explain the rendition flights. "We are ready to test the legal system in the anti-terrorism war," Al-Almin Kimathi of the Kenya Muslim Forum, told ISN Security Watch. Human rights organizations have termed the arrest of Halima Badrudine and her children and Sophia Abdul Nasir a case of "proxy hostages" in the war against terror. Halima is the wife of Fazul Abdullah, a Comorian suspected of playing a prominent role in the planning and execution of the US Embassy bombing in Nairobi in 1998, which killed 245 people, among them 12 Americans. Sophia Nasir is the wife of Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, a Kenyan believed to have worked on the side of Fazul to plan and execute the 1998 bombing. Both suspects are believed to have been hiding in Somalia and are thought to have been part of active al-Qaida training cells in Somalia working for the downfall of the Somali transitional government. The women were arrested along with 13 others said to be relatives of the defeated Islamic militants in Mogadishu and elsewhere Somalia. Mektal, born in the ****** area of Ethiopia in 1969, was a Canadian emigrant who returned to Kenya in 2004 after working in Toronto as a computer programmer. He has had Canadian citizenship since 1993. Amnesty International says Ethiopian authorities have on several occasions tried to force Mektal to confess to being a member of the ****** National Liberation Front (ONLF), but he has refused. He has been held by Ethiopian forces since he was airlifted to Addis on 20 January. The rights groups say the war on terror is targeting Ethiopian ******i and Oromo ethnic groups with ancestry in both Kenya and Ethiopia, while the Kenyans are targeting anybody with associations to suspected terrorists. "This is a crackdown against anyone who is thought to have any association with a suspect of terrorism. This defies the rights of the individuals," Kimathi said. Rights activists say the program is being driven by the US, which has built a close relationship with Kenya and Ethiopia in the war on terror. The Ethiopian government has acknowledged detaining 40 out of at least 80 people suspected to have been secretly flown from Kenya to Ethiopia through Somalia. The human rights workers say 117 people were initially transferred to Ethiopia, and another 50 to 70 individuals were identified within the Kenyan detention facilities before they disappeared. Kimathi said independent rights workers have verified the figures. "We are talking about people we saw and had the flight manifest brought to the high court," Kimathi said. The Kenya Human Rights Network and the Muslims Forum last week urged the court to look into the issue of disappearing Kenyans. Muslim rights groups organized a demonstration in Nairobi last week, calling for the closure of the Ethiopian embassy in Nairobi and the rejection of an attempt by the US to set up an African Military Command Center in Botswana. They hailed the ruling of the High Court as a milestone, saying it was the first time the anti-terrorism police would be called on to explain the reasons behind illegal detentions and extraordinary renditions to foreign countries. "The law is very clear, nobody, whether terrorists or not, should be sent to theaters where there is conflict. There are legal mechanisms to bring perpetrators of various crimes to account," KNCHR chairman Maina Kiai told ISN Security Watch. Earlier in May, Kimathi said he had received unconfirmed information that three of the deportees had died in Ethiopian custody. He expressed deep concern about a Tunisian woman who is reportedly eight months pregnant. Among those arrested were citizens of the US, Ethiopian, Somalia, Kenya, Tunisia, Yemen and Saudi Arabia. The fate of Amir Meshal remains unknown since he was transferred to Ethiopia. He has been questioned by US anti-terror agents who said he was not a terrorism suspect. By any means necessary The Bush administration has come under fire for the practice of so-called extraordinary renditions - the transfer of detainees without court proceedings to foreign countries where they can be interrogated, often in secret, and sometimes subjected to torture. The new allegations mark the first time that such renditions have been suspected in East Africa, where US-friendly regimes often are accused of treating prisoners brutally. But the campaign has not netted any al-Qaida figures. "There is clearly some sort of cooperation that if you fight together, you can deal with prisoners together," Hassan Omar, a member of the state-funded Kenya National Commission on Human Rights who has followed the issue closely told ISN Security Watch. "There has been massive foreign interference on the issue of terrorism. Quite a number of foreign agencies' hands are tainted," he said. Omar said returning the detainees to Somalia was a fundamental human-rights violation. "We are very skeptical of those being deported back to Somalia. The country does not have peace or stability. All of the prisoners we spoke to told us they were fleeing the hostilities." The price of being a US ally Kenyan Muslims accuse their government of being swayed by the US, which says Somalia's Islamist movement is hosting al-Qaida suspects it blames for the deadly bombings of its embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998. Speaking in Nairobi last Wednesday, US Ambassador to Kenya and Somalia Michael Ranneberger defended the Kenyan deportations, which he said were based on security fears. "The Kenyans have carried out security operations based on their own security interests but also based on the request of the [somali] government to interdict and apprehend terrorists. This has meant specifically the apprehension of a number of terrorists and extremists who have tried to cross the Kenyan border," Rannebrger told journalists in Nairobi. Barely a year after it sent fighter jets to bombard parts of Somalia and backed an Ethiopian assault on the capital and elsewhere, Washington said it was pleased with progress in Somalia. "We would strongly praise the degree of Kenyan cooperation on security issues, as well as this is very important on the overall political process in Somalia," Washington said in a statement. Kenyan government officials were not immediately available to comment on the threat of more protests. But speaking on condition of anonymity to ISN Security Watch, a senior government official dismissed the allegations made by those who were deported as baseless. "We are suspicious of allegations made by people deported from this country as undesirable elements," the official said, denying that the FBI had access to the prisoners in Kenya. "But if they feel any law has been broken they are welcome to file an official complaint." But the US envoy in Nairobi said Washington was committed to working with regional partners to oppose terrorism, and noted that "active and ongoing" US counter-terrorism efforts in the region were bearing fruit. Rannerger said Washington's successful collaboration between governments of Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia had "severely disrupted" terrorist activities in anarchic Somalia since operations began there early this year. "The action that we have taken have severely disrupted the al-Qaida East Africa network [...]," Ranneberger told journalists in Nairobi. "Terrorists can no longer feel safe thinking Somalia is a safe haven. Our actions have severely disrupted al-Qaida's East Africa network and those trying to regroup in the south [...] the TFG is working on that and I don't think they would be allowed to do so," Ranneberger said. A basic human rights question In the meantime, Kenyan Muslim leaders are up in arms about what they view as gross mistreatment of their followers by security agents in recent times. According to Professor Abdulghafur El-Busaidy, the Chairman of the Supreme Council of Kenya Muslims, the renditions should not only be seen as an issue affecting Muslims, but as a blatant abuse of Kenyan citizens' basic human rights. "What has been going on for the last few months is wrong, whether those shipped out of Kenya are Kenyan citizens or not," he told ISN Security Watch by telephone. "It is the duty of the country's courts to determine who is guilty of an offence like terrorism, and definitely not the duty of the Immigration Department or the police." Lawyers and human rights groups argue that the covert transfers to Ethiopia violate international law. "Each of these governments has played a shameful role in mistreating people fleeing a war zone," said a report released by Human Rights Watch recently. "Kenya has secretly expelled people, the Ethiopians have caused dozens to disappear and US security agents have routinely interrogated people held incommunicado." http://www.isn.ethz.ch/news/sw/details.cfm?id=18158
  9. Just wondering where in the interview does he the Ambs say that TFG is losing the confidence of the Somali populace? Stephanie Hanson's seems to be generating some hype!. Post Script: This does not mean I love the Tigreys and the TFG!!! it was just an observation.
  10. The role of the Somali Diaspora in the liberation and reconstruction of their country By Amb. Mohamed Sharif Mohamud September 19, 2007 (This is a summary of a statement made at the Somali Diaspora Conference held in London, on 27-28 August) The war of attrition waged by Ethiopia against the Somali Republic, since the secession of hostilities in 1977-78 continued unabatedly. Its direct encroachment and persistent presence in Somalia since 1990 is a well documented fact. Backed by its proxies such as S.O.D.A .F, U.S.C., S.N.M and others, Ethiopia embarked on a systematic policy of dismantlement of the Somali State, its institutions, public utilities and services and its economic infrastructure. This was associated with arming and manipulating tribal militias of every kind for no purpose other than undermining the unity, morale, dignity, pride of the Somali nation, its self confidence and its image among the community of nations. This was followed by a well-designed plan of decimation, fragmentation and the cantonisation of the Somali Republic to be put under the tutelage of the Tigray regime. Kenya, true to her long-standing traditional strategic alliance against Somalia stipulated with Ethiopia since the sixties of the last century, was actively involved. That is why, the former President of Kenya Arab Moi had stated in a lecture at the American Defence University in September 2000, when he bluntly said ‘The Somali conflict is fuelled by the neighbouring countries, because these countries suspect that if Somalia becomes reunited and prosperous, it might reclaim territories’. The recent war of aggression waged by Ethiopia and Kenya financed and supported by the United States, is a further illustration that the destruction of the Somali state was a conspiracy of a wider international dimension. By sponsoring and manipulating the reconciliation process held in Nairobi in 2002, these neighbouring countries, succeeded in 2004 to forge the constitutional framework for the eradication of the Somali national state and to reduce it to tiny tribal Bantustans. This is the essence of the formula of the T.F.G headed by a warlord who had proved credentials of subservience to the Ethiopian annexationist strategy. The Somali Diaspora by virtue of its sheer number, power derived of its educational and economic strength can play a decisive role in the liberation of the homeland and the reconstruction of the of the Somali state. The Somali Diaspora is estimated at 1,5 million, of which 350,000 reside in North America, 150, 000 in the United Kingdom, 40,000 in Holland, 10,000 in Australia and 3,000 in Italy. The remaining live in Arab countries, Africa, Asia and other western European countries. The Somalis who hold the citizenship of the countries of their residence are 500,000. The annual remittances to their motherland is estimated to one billion dollars . Among the Somali Diaspora are a considerable number of highly qualified educated, professionals of every kind, skilled manpower and very successful businessmen. They can contribute in an effective manner to liberate their country from the Ethiopian occupation and to reconstruct the Somali State. To achieve this goal, they should establish, an organisation, which represents, unites, speaks on their behalf in one voice, and directs their forces and resources for the common good of their communities and the general interest of their country. In short an organisation that reflects their national solidarity and concretises their common will power. • This organisation can help the Somalis to integrate in their new countries, raise their awareness of their rights and their political power, overcome their difficulties and vulnerabilities caused by racism, marginalisation, unemployment, under-achievement and crime. It is also of paramount importance that this organisation should help the Somalis to form a political constituency to take part in the electoral process, thus assert their political weight and their bargaining power; • Identifying their interests with those of the similar groups who face similar challenges such as blacks, Arabs and other oppressed peoples and make alliances with them for the common good; • The creation of a political force and a pressure group (lobby), to persuade the public opinion and the governments concerned of the justice of the Somali cause; • Extension of support by all means possible to the liberation of the motherland; • Conservation of Somali cultural heritage, identity, language, arts and maintain bridges of communication with the mother country; • Undertaking the reconstruction of the Somali state, its institutions and its public services; The political, economic and entrepreneurial force in the hands of the Somali Diaspora is enormous and invaluable, provided it is organised and institutionalised. The Somali Diaspora benefiting from living in highly advanced communities, economically, technologically and financially can facilitate for investment institutions and developmental agencies to explore the national resources of their country and build its economic infrastructure. Their expertise and professional skills can be made available to fill the gap of lack of human resources in their country of origin and can provide with an enlightened political leadership, which is a sine qua non for good governance. Drawing from the experiences gained in developed societies where systems of governments are of a superior quality, they could contribute to implant them in their country of origin, so that the rules of social harmony, democratic principles, accountability, checks and balances could prevail and sustained economic and social progress be secured. What has been already accomplished by the Somali Diaspora in the field of telecommunications, airlines, exchange and transfer of money and mass media, to cite just few examples are a commendable feat, which must be applauded and imitated. These companies are highly successful, efficient and responded to highly needed services for a martyr nation. They rendered their vital services nation-wide and challenged every barrier of division based on clannish or regionalism. The Somali Diaspora can achieve more if they just can exploit their power for the interest of their communities and for their own country. This power is their collective will power incorporated in an enlightened and representative organisation. By Amb. Mohamed Sharif Mohamud E-Mail:m.sharif@homechoice.co.uk

  17. The Great Virtue of Lowering the Sight By Imâm Ibn al-Qayyim Taken from ‘al-Muntaqâ min Ighâthatul Lufhân fî Masâyid ash-Shaytân’ [pp.’s 102-105] of Ibn al-Qayyim, summarised by 'Alî Hasan al-Halabî -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allâh, the Exalted said, “Say to the believing men that they should lower their sight and guard their private parts; that will make for greater purity for them. Indeed Allâh is well acquainted with all that they do.” [an-Nûr (24):30] So Allâh made purification and spiritual growth to be the outcome of lowering the sight and guarding the private parts. It is for this reason that lowering one’s sight from (seeing) the prohibited things necessarily leads to three benefits that carry tremendous value and are of great significance. The First: experiencing the delight and sweetness of faith This delight and sweetness is far greater and more desirable that which might have been attained from the object that one lowered his sight from for the sake of Allâh. Indeed, “whosoever leaves something for the sake of Allâh then Allâh, the Mighty and Magnificent, will replace it with something better than it.”[1] The soul is a temptress and loves to look at beautiful forms and the eye is the guide of the heart. The heart commissions its guide to go and look to see what is there and when the eye informs it of a beautiful image it shudders out of love and desire for it. Frequently such inter-relations tire and wear down both the heart and the eye as is said: When you sent your eye as a guide For your heart one day, the object of sight fatigued you For you saw one over whom you had no power Neither a portion or in totality, instead you had to be patient. Therefore when the sight is prevented from looking and investigating the heart finds relief from having to go through the arduous task of (vainly) seeking and desiring. Whosoever lets his sight roam free will find that he is in a perpetual state of loss and anguish for sight gives birth to love (mahabbah) the starting point of which is the heart being devoted and dependant upon that which it beholds. This then intensifies to become fervent longing (sabâbah) whereby the heart becomes totally dependant and devoted to the (object of its desire). Then this further intensifies and becomes infatuation (gharâmah) which clings to the heart like the one seeking repayment of a debt clings firmly to the one who has to pay the debt. Then this intensifies and becomes passionate love (‘ishk) and this is a love that transgresses all bounds. Then this further intensifies and becomes crazed passion (shaghafa) and this is a love that encompasses every tiny part of the heart. Then this intensifies and becomes worshipful love (tatayyuma). Tatayyum means worship and it is said: tayyama Allâh i.e. he worshipped Allâh. Hence the heart begins to worship that which is not correct for it to worship and the reason behind all of this was an illegal glance. The heart is now bound in chains whereas before it used to be the master, it is now imprisoned whereas before it was free. It has been oppressed by the eye and it complains to it upon which the eye replies: I am your guide and messenger and it was you who sent me in the first place! All that has been mentioned applies to the heart that has relinquished the love of Allâh and being sincere to Him for indeed the heart must have an object of love that it devotes itself to. Therefore when the heart does not love Allâh Alone and does not take Him as its God then it must worship something else. Allâh said concerning Yûsuf as-Siddîq (AS), “Thus (did We order) so that We might turn away from him all evil and indecent actions for he was one of Our sincere servants.” [Yûsuf (12):24] It was because the wife of al-‘Azîz was a polytheist that (the passionate love) entered her heart despite her being married. It was because Yûsuf (AS) was sincere to Allâh that he was saved from it despite his being a young man, unmarried and a servant. The Second: the illumination of the heart, clear perception and penetrating insight Ibn Shujâ` al-Kirmânî said, “whosoever builds his outward form upon following the Sunnah, his internal form upon perpetual contemplation and awareness of Allâh, he restrains his soul from following desires, he lowers his gaze from the forbidden things and he always eats the lawful things then his perception and insight shall never be wrong.” Allâh mentioned the people of Lût and what they were afflicted with and then He went on to say, “Indeed in this are signs for the Mutawassimîn.” [al-Hijr (15):75] The Mutwassimîn are those who have clear perception and penetrating insight, those who are secure from looking at the unlawful and performing indecent acts. Allâh said after mentioning the verse concerning lowering the sight, “Allâh is the Light of the heavens and the earth.” [an-Nûr (24):35] The reason behind this is that the reward is of the same type as the action. So whosoever lowers his sight from the unlawful for the sake of Allâh, the Mighty and Magnificent, He will replace it with something better than it of the same type. So just as the servant restrained the light of his eye from falling upon the unlawful, Allâh blesses the light of his sight and heart thereby making him perceive what he would not have seen and understood had he not lowered his sight. This is a matter that the person can physically sense in himself for the heart is like a mirror and the base desires are like rust upon it. When the mirror is polished and cleaned of the rust then it will reflect the realities (haqâ‘iq) as they actually are. However if it remains rusty then it will not reflect properly and therefore its knowledge and speech will arise from conjecture and doubt. The Third: the heart becoming strong, firm and courageous Allâh will give it the might of aid for its strength just as He gave it the might of clear proofs for its light. Hence the heart shall combine both of these factors and as a result, Shaytân shall flee from it. It is mentioned in the narration, “whosoever opposes his base desires, the Shaytân shall flee in terror from his shade.”[2] This is why the one who follows his base desires shall find in himself the ignominy of the soul, its being weak, feeble and contemptible. Indeed Allâh places nobility for the one who obeys Him and disgrace for the one who disobeys Him, “So do not lose heart nor fall into despair; for you must gain mastery if you are true in faith.” [Äli Imrân (3):139] “If any do seek for nobility and power then to Allâh belongs all nobility and power.” [Fâtir (35):10] Meaning that whosoever seeks after disobedience and sin then Allâh, the Might and Magnificent, will humiliate the one who disobeys Him. Some of the salaf said, “the people seek nobility and power at the door of the Kings and they will not find it except through the obedience of Allâh.” This is because the one who obeys Allâh has taken Allâh as his friend and protector and Allâh will never humiliate the one who takes his Lord as friend and patron. In the Du‘â Qunût their occurs, “the one who You take as a friend is not humiliated and the one who You take as an enemy is not ennobled.”[3] Notes: [1] Reported by Ahmad [5/363], al-Marwazî in ‘Zawâ`id az-Zuhd’ [no. 412], an-Nasâ`î in ‘al-Kubrâ’ as mentioned in ‘Tuhfah al-Ashrâf’ [11/199] from one of the Companions that the Messenger of Allâh said, “indeed you will not leave anything for the sake of Allâh except that Allâh will replace it with something better than it.” The isnâd is sahîh. [2] This is not established as a hadîth of the Prophet . [3] Reported by Abû Dâwûd [Eng. Trans. 1/374 no. 1420], an-Nasâ`î [3/248], at-Tirmidhî [no. 464], ibn Mâjah [no. 1178], ad-Dârimî [1/311], Ahmad [1/199], ibn Khuzaymah [2/151] from al Hasan from Alî (RA). The hadîth is sahîh. The isnâd has been criticised by many, however none of the criticisms hold. Refer to: ‘Nasb ar-Râyah’ [2/125] and ‘Talkhîs al-Habîr’ [1/247]
