^LoooooooooooooooooL...Good one I blame Siyad Barre and colonial powers before him.

Mohamed Olad Hassan, a Somali journalist who has covered the people of his nation amid dangerous insurgency over the last decade, was awarded the Louis M. Lyons Award for Conscience and Integrity in Journalism at the Walter Lippmann House in Cambridge last night. Hassan, a senior correspondent and writer for BBC World Service and The Associated Press, has been called the “voice of the voiceless.” While many media professionals have been killed on the job in Somalia and many others have fled, Hassan has remained despite efforts by the government and insurgent groups to silence the media. “Being a reporter in Somalia is a matter of death and life. There’s always danger. Self-censorship is an important part. You don’t know who your enemy is,” said Hassan who wore a light blue suit inspired by the Somali flag. read

^LoooooooooooL...That's an improvement. Xajka waa barakeysan yahey. Ninkii niyad fiican liyimaade Ilaahey waa,u naxariisani.

^What are you on about? Norf-as in rep to God since the man chose a holy site and holy occasion to fly his colors. Gheelle.T...Diintee bari la,haayeen.

For sake of argument, if guy from any given reer Hebel is appointed as minister, what can he really for his Qabiil? I'm still waiting Ina Abdirashid did for Puntland, did he bring any bacon home

^I'm talking about the full body scan! They have pilot program at Logan Airport in Boston. Here's local report. Click on the video imagine being that old guy getting violated like that.

Mr.Somalia..You are right Michael Chertoff directly benefits from the sale of these machines. His security consultant company works for the makers. looool@rectum bomber and his target actually survived..lol Zack....There's nothing random. The last time, I traveled everyone I saw went through the machine. I didn't know and I don't think people there with me knew that you could opt out for this security procedure. But then, if you decline this-get ready to be molested. Atleast,I buy a dinner first

^Bitter experience from the wars is legitimate though not good excuse to be blind.

Libaahe...Ethiopia doesn't want any viable Somali government whether that government is in the form of Somaliland or United Somalia. Any powerful Somali entity is threat to it!

Originally posted by poiuytre: Who would have thought that a country where 90% of the governments budget comes from aid would be the master that pathetic Somali leaders bend over backwards for? It would have made sense if they benefited from this relationship somehow! They come back empty-handed every-time.

^Usual photo pose with Zenawi is tradition man.

^Your source of pride for you eh,what do you get in return for being just loyal servant?

For anyone traveling within the US, we are now faced with extra security measures. One has the option to go through body scanner-it's reported the scanned body images with identifiable features have been stored. The other option is to submit to enhanced pat downs-essentially meaning TSA employees can feel or rub against any part of your body including inner thighs. All this in the name of security :mad:

Scoring points and jokes aside, Somalis must realize Ethiopia doesn't want any viable Somali government with international recognition. They feel even independent and internationally recognized Somaliland is threat no matter how loyal its leaders might be to Ethiopia agenda.

over-bloated already?

In this spirit of many Somali leaders before him, Farmaajo will head to Addis sooner or later, the question is he gonna hold out as much as Siiranyo did
