NG, Faroole's approach is/was the right way, but they never listened. Now this has happened, they must take a heed of what he's been saying. Ku dayo comes to mind On a serious note though, Americans will heavy-handedly going take a decisive action which may result loss of lives. We will wait and see how it turns out. It's already a breaking news in all the US media.

News has it that the Somaliland "Army" started leaving LA: Here

There are counts of Pirates that have been killed as well. I am assuming the American Navy Seals tried to rescue the hijacked 4 and failed to do so. Now that Westerners are killed, will the war on Piracy take a different approach? Tune on

The four Americans aboard a yacht hijacked by pirates off the coast of Somalia are dead. Hijacked last Friday off Oman, the Quest was being piloted toward the Somali coast - and was being shadowed by a U.S. Navy warship. CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports that gunshots aboard the yacht were heard, and the warship took action. All 4 Americans were dead, killed apparently by their captors. There were more than a dozen pirates on board, some dead and others captured, Martin reports. The Americans were Scott Adam and his wife, Jean, of Marina del Rey, Calif.; and Phyllis Macay and Bob Riggle, both of Seattle. Adam, in his mid-60s, had been an associate producer in Hollywood when he turned in a spiritual direction and enrolled in the seminary a decade ago, Professor Robert K. Johnston of Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena and a friend of Adam's, told The Associated Press. "He decided he could take his pension, and he wanted to serve God and humankind," he said. Johnston and Adam worked together to start a film and theology institute. Adam also taught a class on church and media at the school. Since 2004, the Adams lived on their yacht in Marina Del Rey for about half the year and the rest of the year they sailed around the world, often distributing Bibles in remote parts of the Fiji Islands, Alaska, New Zealand, Central America and French Polynesia, Johnston said. Scott and Jane Adam documented their maritime missionary work on their website, S/V Quest Adventure Log. source

Fara-Weyne, Maroodi Jeex. Bal adba!

A_Khadar, I would assume your comments above is directed at SL crew here and not at me. That been said, my remarks wereare just personal and reflects on me. Besides, those dungeons were "part" of the our dark history just as Mandhere and similar prisons are the continuation of the never ending saga of what it's Somalia.

I can't take any more," he told Estado de Sao Paulo. I wanted to continue, but I can't do it any more. I think of an action, but I can't do it the way I want to. It's time. It's the body that's hurting me. The head wants to go on, but the body can't take any more. He finally calls a quit. What a man, what player he was. I hope he will be involved in footy in some capacity.

Labaatan Jirow and Laanta Buur were part of the dark and sad history ours, one can forgive, but shouldn't forget. May God bless those souls who perished in them dungeons.

BoB, waan ku fahmay, laakiin mid ogow saaxiib, waxa Soomali isku dilayso waxay salka ku haysaa jaahilnimmo iyo exploitation ay siyaasiyiin wadaan. Don't lose hair on this, majority way ogyihiin in khuraafaad badan meesha ku jiro. Sayid-Qardho thread-kiisi aakhiro aa loo diray, isagaba meeqo thread uu cunyay PS: Ana waxaa is lahaa markaad Luanda iyo Libreville imaado, ayaad BOB ku soo raadinaaya. Maxay tahay fakad aa noqotay.

Ismahan, I dont think BOB was asking about Somali origins or who belongs to what, rather if one is sure about his clan belongings. It's hard to answer that, methinks. About your DNA samples there, how did come about this percentages? Was there a research done on Somalis and what percentage of DNA pool was used? Just asking!!

Su'aashan waxay la dhigan tahay adoo yiri "awowga inuu aabbahaa dhalay ma hubtaa." Qabiilka aa tahay waa wax si oral ah la isugu soo gudbiayay, qof garankara dhabta ma jiro. Haddii second thought kaa galo, waa wareer. Amba booskaaga iska xajiso ama su'aasha sii dheeree oo doubt garee illaa odayba odayga uu ka sii horeeyay. Xaaji Bob, far jano in oo maalmo aa soo joogta waaye, Luanda waaba ku wareerisay

Bravado or paranoia? Here: http://somalilandpress.com/army-boosting-forces-after-deadly-unrests-in-eastern-somaliland-20026 People's comments are even worse..

Mubarak jokes are coming left and right, I saw this tweet today "Damn girl, you've got a Mubarak. (An a$$ that won't quit.)"

Alla ha u naxaristo.

Someone once mention the Futux-Al Xabash/Futuh Al Habas.. JB and co, do you know where the Somali version will be found?

Jacpher, for the dictators in the ME, this is indeed a cudur they have no cure for it. They are (leaders) all in panicking mood and they scratching their heads to find a way to calm the populace without leaving office. But it seems that people have no appetite for this kind of talk anymore, the reform talk they have been hearing all their lives. Let it spread, let the voice of the people be heard or else......

The disease is catching up and spreading like bush fire... Syria, here i come!

^ You miss this part" And I replied to the African guys in their own English dialect" and then the Somali guy would have thought that you were a/n.... sheekada milix bay lahaan laheyd.

U.S is re-evaluating it's position and even toned down it's earlier rhetoric, but the old fox is still resisting. Is he buying time or he's got something else under his sleeves? I have under estimated Qeylo weyna yaasha, laakiin meel fiican bay u maraysaa hadda.

Sabr iyo Iimaan idinka oo idil. Alla Jannada ha geeyo. Aamiin.

AS long as the NGOs in Nairobi and the so called International Community are calling the shots, this game will never change. Somalis will keep squabbling on petty things and those men(in suits) in Nairobi will keep pocking on the poor Somalis. Sad, but the truth...Let it roll.

Admin should have added an option to turned it off as well.

Alle ha u naxariisto marxuumka.

That crazy man can bribe every single Libyan and have them sing for him. I think they don't have the number or the audacity to take on the crazy wolf. They are better off with him and his wild fantasies.

^ I don't know, but I hope they did what they do best to those culprits, gowrac.
