Glad we agree on that.

^They were more civilized and patriotic than all the current Somali leadership not just those that claim to be represent Hiiraan.

Shacabka Hiiraan waa in ay hantiyaan fursadda maanta u dagan, iyaga oo ku xaqiijinaya maamulka ku yimaada wadahadal iyo dib u heshiisiin. Tafatirka Hiiraan Online Wednesday, January 18, 2012 Halganka bulsha kasta wuxuu maraa marxalado kala duwan oo mararka qaarkood xambaarsan isku –dhac, farafoonta iyo dagaalba; kuwaasoo ugu dambeynta bulshooyinka fahamsiiya miraha nabadda iyo xasilloonida. Sidaa daraadeed waxaan reer Hiiraan ugu baaqeynaa in aysan ka ilduufin ka mira-dhalinta fursadda ka abuurantay ka bixitaankii kooxda Al-Shabaab, kuna baraarugaan muhimadda ay leedahay midnimadu iyo lagamamaarmaanida nidaam dowladeed iyo nabad waarta oo ay ku noolaadaan dadweynaha reer Hiiraan. Waxaa laga yaabaa in loo qaato in aan taageereyno fikirka labada wado (Dual Track) ee ay ku baaqdo dowladda Mareykanka, ama fikirka xambaarsan in maamulka hoos laga soo dhiso (Bottom UP Approach), amaba nalaku eedeeyo u janjeeridda siyaasadda gurracan ee gobolo u kala qoqobidda dalka Soomaaliyeed, kuwaas oo ka dhan ah ula-jeedada iyo hadafka uu leeyahay faaladan. Waxay faaladani xambaarsantahay baaq midnimada Soomaaliyeed iyo baraarujin gaar ahaaneed oo ah in aan shacabka reer Hiiraan ka il duufin ku habsadashada iyo fursadda iyo iftiinka nabadeed oo dhidiba adag u noqon kara nabad waarta oo Soomaali oo dhan gaarta.

Residents of Hiiraan must capitalize this window of opportunity by holding a reconciliation conference to establish an administration Hiiraan Online Editorial Tuesday, January 17, 2012 Peace can only be understood as a phase in a conflict cycle and as a long-term process with a set of challenges. It is in this context that we urge the people of the Hiiraan region to capitalize the current opportunity created by the withdrawal of Al-Shabab from the city of Beletwein and unite around the need to establish lasting security and a system of governance for the people of Hiiraan. We understand that people may label us of supporting the notion of dual–track approach as promoted by the USA, or the concept of building from the bottom up or even the cynics may accuse us of breaking up the nation or creating more fiefdoms; a far-fetched of what this editorial piece aims to achieve. In contrast, this editorial piece supports the unity of Somalia and in that spirit of unity urges the people of Hiiraan to consolidate peace by capitalizing this window of opportunity and to set the foundation for a process that will pave the way for durable peace throughout the country, and that is what this editorial piece is striving to achieve and not to further complicate the current crises in Somalia by not following suite the tsunami of emerging states. Arguably, the dual-track policy is intended to serve the interest of the USA and not the Somali interest and will adversely affect the Somali conflict and consequently will prolong the Somali crisis continue

Interesting implications if this actually pans out...

^That's lie.

Wikipedia joins blackout protest at US anti-piracy moves Wikipedia has taken its English-language site offline as part of protests against proposed anti-piracy laws in the US. Users attempting to access the site see a black screen and a political statement: "Imagine a world without free knowledge." The user-generated news site Reddit and the blog Boing Boing are also taking part in the "blackout". However, Twitter has declined to join the shutdown. Wikipedia is opposed to the US Stop Online Piracy Act (Sopa) and Protect Intellectual Property Act (Pipa) being debated by Congress. The site's founder, Jimmy Wales, told the BBC: "Proponents of Sopa have characterised the opposition as being people who want to enable piracy or defend piracy". "But that's not really the point. The point is the bill is so over broad and so badly written that it's going to impact all kinds of things that, you know, don't have anything to do with stopping piracy." The message replacing the normal Wikipedia front page on the internet says: "For over a decade, we have spent millions of hours building the largest encyclopaedia in human history. Right now, the US Congress is considering legislation that could fatally damage the free and open internet. For 24 hours, to raise awareness, we are blacking out Wikipedia." Click

^You are such hateful little brick, aren't you? One wonders what kind household did you grow up in?

Leave it to Allsanaag.com to write such absurd pieace :-)

This is just sad!

^dying?....You do there are entire regions in Somalia that speak whose first tongue is Af-May?

Let get back to you guys MMA and Narniah:-)

^loooooooooooool

Lander....I thought you were condemning those (Taleex Conference) that claim to represent the region through the simple fact of clan association while justifying Somaliland's actions and ultimately promoting its goal of securing the borders. I share your sentiments insofar that whatever group inherits the region and its people should develop it but as far as the gatherings in the diaspora are concerned, of course it supports the effort towards dislodging Somaliland from their regions. Will their actions support war and destruction, at the moment it seems that's inevitable but we need to ask ourselves one question, do those that will attend these gatherings want their regions developed, of course they do. They just don't wanna under the control of Somaliland and Puntland which they feel don't represent their best interest. Should we condemn for wanting to do this, I don't know but they feel they do.

Lander......you can not be serious? I guess your struggle and aspirations are holier than everyone else's.

Eritrea did not airlift arms to Islamist militants in the Somali town of Baidoa late last year, a preliminary United Nations report has found. Kenya accused Eritrea in November of delivering weapons to the Shabab, a Qaeda-linked rebel group battling to overthrow Somalia’s Western-backed government. Eritrea repeatedly denied the accusation. The United Nations Monitoring Group on Somalia and Eritrea said that its “preliminary assessment is that these reports were incorrect and that the alleged deliveries to Baidoa probably did not take place.” http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/17/world/africa/eritrea-panel-finds-no-arms-were-sent-to-somali-rebels.html?_r=1
