Suldaanka, Let's run with that logic. The Derg trained and armed SNM and gave them camps where they can launch attacks against the Somali State. Perhaps, we should be credit the Derg then?

LOL The last I remember I saw no SNM militia doing any fighting in Mogadishu in 1991 and I was in Mogadishu. One can only credit for what they did and let's not get emotional about it.

SAUDI ARABIA PLANNED TO INVADE QATAR LAST SUMMER. REX TILLERSON’S EFFORTS TO STOP IT MAY HAVE COST HIM HIS JOB.

It's not that that Al-Shabab can't be defeated, it is that no one is sincere about it.

LOL, you are funny Xaaji.

It's confirmed a suicide attack. According to Harun Maruf, one of the dead is a former Hisbul Islam member, their finance chief. It is a safe to assume he was the target.

Hargeysa was attacked in the past. Let's not go nuts. Besides, how do you know who is behind it?

I think a car bomb in front of a mosque but it's too early to say.

Ahmed Mohamud Dolal among the dead.

Several people dead.

Let's hope they accept and respect the outcome.

Xaaji, I don't trust any of them. Americans are actually getting ready to start direct talks with the Taliban. They are finally accepting the Taliban can't be defeated. Qatar is better positioned to host those talks.

So, the Somali presidency will only go to one clan?

Iran is UEA's second biggest trading partner in the region. Don't let them fool you.

I like that

So, you consider a Somali person in Mogadishu an outsider and you wonder why people prefer federalism?

No, I support reer Sool to have the final word on their future just as reer Hargeysa should decide where their future lies. Soomaali inta is rabta ha israacdo inta kalane Ilaahey garabkooda hagalo.. Unlike you, while I prefer all Somalis come under one political entity, I don't believe forcing anyone against their will. If you believe the trouble is being caused by a clan, then, you are indeed blinded.

Iley answers to someone but that someone is not holding him back from retaliating, In any case, what do you in mind since you opposed Iley and ONLF without alternatives?

No, look closer, it is mostly the Oromo flag with the tree. Suldaanka, Amhara will certainly try to come back to power but it's unlikely they will hold the country together even with the help of the West. No nation wants to come under their control and they don't have numerical advantage to win genuine elections.

That might so, but doesn't justify the continuous massacre of Somali civilians.

We got it, you hate them for their qabiil. Anything else? Perhaps something useful?

What's Galmudug going to do? Attack Garacad?

There are OLF flags than they are Ethiopian flags.
