^You seriously think TFG defeated AS?

What's point mocking this poor girl? You could make your argument without dragging her name through the mud.

^Where I have disowned-predicting what might happen to them is not disowning my actions and by the way, if there are defeated it is not because TFG but the simple fact divisions within them, their reaction of famine and their lack of building Government and institutions that can help people.

Goldcoast-There's deep rift among their factions. This was initially caused by breakdown of relationship between Roobow and Godane factions. Roobow tribesmen paid the highest in terms of executing the war in Mogadishu. Awey's inclusion in AS ranks also raised tensions. The general treatment of the public by AS foot-soldiers was concern as the draconian rules imposed on the people became unbearable and finally, their response to the droughts was amazingly inhumane. Bay, Bakool and Gedo factions were absolutely opposed to the idea of chasing international NGOs since it is residents from these regions that were dying the most. Zack-I don't run away from anything.

^My bad dear-Congrats to you and Korean hubby. No, I won't stare! My duas in this blessed month to you all.

looooooooool

Taliban keeps its word.

KABUL, Afghanistan — A NATO helicopter crash in Afghanistan on Saturday killing 31 U.S. special-forces troops, including more than 20 Navy SEALS from the unit that killed Osama bin Laden, and 7 Afghan commandos. It was the deadliest single combat incident for American troops in 10 years of war, according to an American official. The operators from SEAL Team Six were flown by a crew of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regimen, according to U.S. officials who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because families are still being notified of the loss of their loved ones. One source said the team was thought to include 22 SEALs, three Air Force air controllers, seven Afghan Army troops, a dog and his handler, and a civilian interpreter, plus the helicopter crew. The sources thought this was the largest single loss of life ever for SEAL Team Six, known as the Naval Special Warfare Development Group. A brief statement from the presidential palace said the helicopter had crashed in central Wardak province, an area west of Kabul. The volatile region is known for its strong Taliban presence. Afghan President Hamid Karzai "shared his deep sorrow and sadness" with U.S. counterpart Barack Obama and the families of the U.S. and Afghan victims, the statement said. Obama, who learned of the deaths while at Camp David, mourned the deaths of the 7 Afghan soldiers killed, and issued a written statement saying Americans' thoughts and prayers go out to the families of those who perished. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/44043847/ns/world_news-south_and_central_asia/?gt1=43001#.Tj1_UGGYPhc

AS made the biggest plunder. I'm afraid their days might be numbered.

Nothing new-HRW have written extensive reports on this, the west is conveniently ignoring this as long as Zenawi is doing bidding region.

Alderman.....Have you ever been t0 Somalia?

^At this point, I welcome any change but only change within the Somalis can bring about peace. Check images below http://www.jowhar.com/news.php?readmore=2222

^Somalia needs to rescue itself. Why should non-Somalis care if Somalis don't care about their own people. Even with the best of intentions, there's so much the international community can do.

NAIROBI, Kenya - The drought and famine in Somalia have killed more than 29,000 children under the age of 5, according to U.S. estimates, the first time such a precise death toll has been released related to the Horn of Africa crisis. The United Nations has said previously that tens of thousands of people have died in the drought, the worst in Somalia in 60 years. The U.N. says 640,000 Somali children are acutely malnourished, a statistic that suggests the death toll of small children will rise. Nancy Lindborg, an official with the U.S. government aid arm, told a congressional committee in Washington on Wednesday that the U.S. estimates that more than 29,000 children under the age of 5 have died in the last 90 days in southern Somalia. That number is based on nutrition and mortality surveys verified by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The U.N. on Wednesday declared three new regions in Somalia famine zones, bringing the total number to five. Out of a population of roughly 7.5 million, the U.N. says 3.2 million Somalis are in need of immediate lifesaving assistance. Getting aid to Somalia has been made more difficult because al-Qaida-linked militants control much of the country's most desperate areas. Al-Shabab has denied that a famine is taking place, and won't give access to the World Food Program, the world's biggest provider of food aid. Tens of thousands of refugees have fled south-central Somalia in hopes of finding food at camps in Ethiopia, Kenya and in Mogadishu, the Somali capital. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been donated to fight the hunger crisis, but the U.N. says it needs hundreds of millions more. ___ How to help: http://www.interaction.org/crisis-list/interaction-members-respond-drought- crisis-horn-africa

^People want acceptance in-spite of their actions or decisions.

^Everybody needs acceptance, telling yourself otherwise is simply lie.

^LooooooL....I thought and your Korean would empathize.

What must Arab and African leaders be thinking now?

Jb..what did you do man?

^loooooool...I did skip over the name, now I'm questing where have they met? Aaliyah...We just need to be careful with idea that being Somalis predisposes you to certain undesirable things.
