^Noted, and Mr Sharif will be shown the door soon enough.It is just so long he could depend oh his Ethio friends, AC-130s, and hide behind AMISOM troops while hoping ******** would come to his rescue. [ May 21, 2009, 02:47 PM: Message edited by: Libaax-Sankataabte ]

Sad how men fought for their country are paraded and the likes of Kheyrdiid are tolerated, even sadder likes of Xiin would wanna see Al-Shabaab turn on each other thereby distruping the lives of people in all southern regions.

The war with Taliban is not winable for simple reasons. The Pakistani army is not equipped to fight an insurgency-its entire existence is predicated on the threat coming from the east.The terrain shall the army decides to launch an all out war is not conducive to conventional war. It is mountainous areas with a lot of hills and valleys-prefect hideaway for any insurgency. The Taliban also has local supporters and fighters who have intimate knowledge of the land-much more than the Pakistani army. They also know the politics of these regions and would coopted any potential distractors. It's worthy mentioning leadership in the tribal has mostly been replaced by young fervent leadership who took over the land and the leadership.They are almost worlord like characters running some parts of the region. There's the problem with itself who have no stomach fighting what it believes to be America's war. The army has also with of Taliban sympathisers. And there's the issue of the Pashtun tribes who make-up a signficant number of the army. Any campaign by the army must be sensative to its members that are of Pushtun origin. Con't,

My cell broke into two pieces, but it's still working. Reminded of the terminator,how do we live without these things?

^You mean I have been looking for you in the group...dang it

This makes Sharif look like novice-ameuterish move.

Cara ...Al Shabaab is political movement and religion in this context is just means to an end!

^adiguna teebaa aheed on FB that's. LooooooooooL@Nuune.. ..War cidna maceyriyo

^That raises more questions than answers-imagine Duceysane reincarnated as desert rat

Horta, wat's Nuune's on FB. He could be on my list and wouldn't know.

LooooooooooL@DD..You owe something horta.

^I fall right in between that range

MS.DD...Interesting. .hmm Nuune...Is that an observation you made or verifiable fact? Duceysane....No mini skirts.There's nothing mysterious about them.

^ Paragon....Np,but shares your own observations

Most women on the train whose legs are crossed usually have left leg over the right leg. Everybody on Facebook says everyone else is good looking, sexy, MashAllah, or Grrr when commenting on each other's pictures. Most young men on trains ignore the older women who are standing by playing with their Iphones, Ipods, or what every electronic gadget they have. Waiters at Indian joints constantly walk around with jugs of water waiting to ambush you as soon as you put your glass of water down. When talking about politics at fadhi kudidir sessions, the type of "discussions" is determined by Qabil make-up. For example, if there are men from Bosaso,Hargeysa, and Mogadisho. The discussions would be about how miserbly are things, and how Qabiil/warlords are destroying our land. Hargeysa folks leave, and the discussions takes new tone, so on and so forth. Con't

Mintid-You use the term "occupiers" pretty loosely. My village if I have one is not important in the grand scheme of things, but uniting Somalia under one authority is. Al-Shabaab and co offers the chance for one group reigning over all of Somalia from Zeylac to Ras Kamboni.So, I had to choose, I will definately go with Al-Shabaab.

Imagine this happening to a guy...It scared me silly, and forget about NGONGE

But merely, a real sense of anger is building up in our heart , particularly when we see the mendacity that the jihadist seemed to be pulling in down south of Somalia. You mean a sense of frustration at your own failures to deliver the masses to the promise land. You could project all the anger you have towards south (Aweys, Al-Shabaab, Puntland, and anything that came before them), but the fact remains for the past two decades your future and faith were in your OWN hands, but you did little to change your stars, and sadly enough it wasn't from lack of trying.So, Oodweyne a day wish Aweys and Al-Shabaab offers last hope for world to notice this " moderate democratic Muslim country "!! Hence, rest assure, dear lad, that, if they stop hiding behind a "suicide bombers" and like, they really would not stand a chance against regular army such as that of Somaliland , indeed You well know conventional army and I'm giving you the benefit of doubt in actually calling Somaliland forces a regular army, are not equipped to deal with "terrorists" effectively. And this argument would have carried more weight if it wasn't for the forty plus thousands better trained, better equipped, and better financed (Yankee dollars) Ethiopian army that could not subdue the Al-Shabaab and likes, not mention the Somali stooges,thousands Ethio intelligence and occasional Yankee air support. Mind you, I wouldn't credit Al-Shabaab alone for ousting the Tigrays though others perceive otherwise. Not every conflict plays out the same way since there are different variables, and three variables might work to your advantage. The first being your tribesmen who bind together more than other Somalis in times of great adversity,the second being young disposal able bodies that know nothing but the idea of Somaliland, and the last variable is the resources coming from the diaspora. There would be external factors, but as history shown us, those tend to do harm than good. whoever put them out of their misery will be the "prize-winner" of the horn. If I only had crystal ball

^So, you would massacre an entire people cuz of one man-gets to show, but the movement is bigger Shangoole and Aweys, and believe me your own cousins would be doing the fighting

^LoooooooooooooL...e motional, no my friend, but bit excited about the possibility of Shangoole at your doorstep

As expected, the 'international community' is leaving Sharif and Co hanging-I already see a call for new rounds of peace talks between hardcore "Islamist" and the "moderate Islamists-one more reason for these organizations to stay relevent in the Somali saga.

Duke, I don't understand you and Emperor. You want Sharif government so Yeey could be vindicated, yet you do not want to see Al-Shabaab taking over the country....Loooooooo oL..It's conundrum I tell you.
