Kashafa....Firstly Walaal, M Dheere is not clan leader. He is an opportunistic warlord that doesn't hold any sway over his clansmen. He doesn't have the credentials of an actual clan-appointed Nabadon, Ugaas, Islow or Malaaq. Men that fight for him do so only cuz he shares his loot with them. It would be a mistake to assume the likes of Dheere speak for their clansmen. Mid kale the idea of containing the war into Mogadisho is strategically futile one as the Ethios whose supplies and reinforcements pass through Somali terrain move about peacefully till they reach the suburbans of Xamar Caddeey. I say turn up the heat on these people. Hit them wherever and whenever you can. Napoleon once said and I quote,'You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of war'. Draw out the Ethios into skirmishes wherever they are. And we will know how they fight and what they fear. And more importantly, nowhere in proper Somalia would be safe for them. The only way to do this is unite the warring Somali tribes. Few things unite glory, interest and indignity of being subservient in their own land. It is certainly in the interest of every Somali tribe to bring back the once glorious nation of Somalia, and not suffer the indignity of being occupied.

^^^LoooooooooooooL

Kashafa.....Don't you find it odd that the war against the Ethios is only happening in Mogadisho. Everywhere else in Somalia is complete lull apart from the occasional inter-tribal skirmishes. I'm all for throwing the Ethios out of Somalia and the only way we could achieve is by uniting the warring Somali tribes and alienating the warlords. Attacking Nabadon a symbolic tribal figures would only divide us even farther considering our tribalistic nature. I think the insurgency shouldn't fight with guns only. They should also go on the diplomatic offensive by engaging with Somali clan leaders, and asking them to join this noble fight. I know this is easier said than done, but it gotta start somewhere. One thing is obvious, this "wadanka waa la heystaa" message isn't selling. That's just my humble opinion.

I don't see any point in attacking the venue of this so called reconcialation. And this insurgency seems to lack the broad support it needs to succeed and proper leadership to guide it through these difficult times. All attacks perpetuated by the insurgency only seem to maim Somalis. And I'm begining to question if there's an actaul insurgency?

I would have thought Yeey would level Bakaara when the Ethios were carpet bombing Xamar.

Savannah there is nothing else in Georgia I would definately recommend Savannah XalimoPatra. It is charming southern town with prefect little garden squares. I was there 06 new year. Sucks ain't coming to beantown Xamilo

Gen Musharaf did well. kudos to him. It is unfortunate so many lives were lost but he was left with no choice.

Jb......Nobody gets rewarded for just being good. What does Somaliland have that others would want? Everything is about interest.

^^^that's alot of ifs. How about if we all leave him alone, and his Lord deal with him!

Cara....I guess we are fundamentally diffirent in our thinking. What are your thoughts on animals used in labs?

I feel special now Puuja LoooooL@Zu man Bob...We had all expense paid party in Balanbe. Fireworks in the desert night. Lazy...No worries dear...You would still able to my jeego from anywhere. P.S Bob , Caravaggio ain't just any Italian. He is mad genius.

Enjoy this special day Puuja Jee!

LoooooL@American Humvee and SUV. I guess uncle Sam has been very generious. Happy Birthday to Jabouti. Wishing you peace and progress!

^^No tanug you, I rather take peek into Cara's midnite thoughts. It is very quaint, little more picturesque than Faarax's rather vivid imagination. Zafir might take you on your offer though.

^^^You sleep write on SOL. Thanks to the midnight shift mod we are not subjected to your thoughts.

^^^I heard he is looking for a Minyar Thanks Munira.

What's the job Of Garaad?. Do modern day tribal chiefs serve any purpose?

^^The prehistoric man still lives within us. Modernity can't undo millenniums of behavioral conditioning where hunting animals for both food and sport was the norm.

Are you ok Inaader? Arm Somali clans so they could murder other Somali tribes. How about you find a path that leads to less killing.

^^^You shoud go on game hunt in African savannas or better yet hithc ride with a Inuit on seal hunting expedetion. It might just put things in perspective.

^^^Cara....Are you vegetarian?

Duke....Hiiraale laf dhuun gashay kugu noqday.

Many cynical people will properly think I am being bias and they would say it is impossible to have two candidates from a same province since the two men (Abdirahman/Rayaale) both originated from Awdal. But that should not be an excuse to prevent two candidates from Awdal or anywhere else for that matter to compete each other. Especially when we already have two men from the same clan leading the other two main Parties (Kulmiye/ Ucid) The above statements seems contradictory. One could clearly understand the author doesn't in what he is selling. If anything, he sounds kind of bitter.

It is little too for redemption, don't you think? I'm glad you recognize the demons within us. Good luck old man.
