Duqa, maqaadayaha dhan badanaa waa wada xirnaayeen, oo straight from that tournament ayaa ka nimid. Oo marti ila socotay. We had three choices: Either Alcuruba's casarii [which we got tired of eating xalwo and sambuus] or Banaadir or a fast food joint. Kaligeenana ma ahayn as I said dad badan ka yimid ciyaarahaas, including the players cunaaye. I am sure iyagana laabjeexa ila qabeen. By the way, these -- Soomaali United -- are kuwa beat gareeye North London. I can't believe their back centre defender -- the one who carries Maldini's number #5 camal -- is indhayar. An indhayar that knows how to play, though. Their goalkeeper, whom I had casually played against some years back, is really good. One of the other London teams, London Stars. Not the North London.

I actually was there last night after 11 p.m. since all other good Soomaali restaurants were closed, being holiday and such. Bariis qalalan oo aroortii la kariye ayee nasoo hordhigeen iyo hilib u eg wax adiga ku cuni karo. Laabjeex [heartburn] aan ka qaaday waligeey igu dhicin. Couldn't sleep walaahi. You have a point. They too were there eating like dad abaar dishay. I mean dhalintaas Landhan ka yimid.

This dude does not think so. Read on. Are Somali's mentally stable? I know this may offend some out there....but enough with the PC crap. Somali's need to be asked some hard questions....e.g are the mentally fit? One question to these people...when the eff do y'all plan to stop fighting each other....10,000 A.D??!! or will that be a century to early for you? honestly if i hear one more thing about the situation in somalia i'll puke! you guys need to just give your country to someone else to run it. we have many people in kenya who can run an effective country for you. Somalia..seriously why are you such a pain to Africa? If you want to give a piece of you mind to that Keenyaati poster, here it is. Meantime, another poster responding to the original poster: "ehehehe quite funny though....Ur choice of words is quite offensive to somalis, i swear if this was a face to face argument some irate walallo would have stabbed u instantly while screaming vernacular curses,..." Oh, yea. I guess.

Uganda: Open Letter to AU Chairman On Somalia DEAR Mr. Chairman, I have been trying to reach you in vain. I am happy though that I finally got this space to reach out to you. The Ugandan contingent you sent to the African Union (AU) mission in Somalia reached safely. As I write to you, we are now fully established as you may have read in the media. Our base camp is well set. We also took over the security of the airport, the seaport, the presidential palace and that spot commonly known as Km 4 from the Ethiopian forces that we found in the mission area. Africa 2007 If you can recall, the Ethiopian army wanted to pull out in two weeks after dislodging the insurgents. You however asked them to stay until you fully deploy. Had they not listened to you, their going would have been catastrophic to this mission. In the four months we have been here, we have managed to distribute clean drinking water to thousands of internally displaced persons (IDPs) who urgently need humanitarian assistance. We also extended medical treatment to about 1,200 civilians who were suffering from different infections including cholera. This assistance also benefited 530 children. Through these activities, we managed to win the support of the Somali people. However, this intervention cannot be sustained because of our limited capacity and as such we request that you appeal to world humanitarian agencies to come and help in this area. We also request that you fast track the process of contributing troops from the troop contributing countries (TCCs) that pledged to deploy to help the Somali people. For us on the ground, we will help to secure their entry as well as helping them to reach where they will deploy. I have been reading opinions from some scholars alluding that Africa cannot manage to raise troops for this mission. I do not want to believe them because I have faith in your capacity to mobilise. For now, I can say that the Ugandan troops on the ground cannot stretch any further . As you may recall, we lost some Ugandan peacekeepers when a roadside bomb hit their vehicle in May. The Ethiopians, as you know, cannot stay here forever. So the earlier you deploy, the more you will be helping the situation. Hoping for your reply soonest. Yours truly, Capt Paddy Ankunda. Capt Paddy Ankunda Spokesman of AMISOM Xigasho I have nothing against those poor Ugandans. I believe they are misguided, though having the best intention. I hope they realize peacekeeping for Soomaaliya is not the option currently, particularly under Itoobiyan occupation.

Warheedha haya, wuxu yar yaraa...I went to Weston/Lawrence just the other day, and all I saw was these little guys, I could've sworn they were not older than 16 or 17yrs...And someone tells me that they are here for the Soccer Tournament...WHAATTTT!!!!!!! They have parked themselves at Banaadir restaurant. Meeshaas ayee wada dhoowanyihiin all teams ka yimid dibadda, qaas ahaa the four teams from Landhan. Free baaraxi bariis food ayee ka helaan, I guess.

Dadka, especially the youths, aan waxba galabsan la leynaayo continues. Ciidamada Xukuumada Itoobiya Oo Dad Rayid Ah Ku Xasuuqay Xarun Internetka Laga Isticmaalo Juun 30, 2007 - Ciidamada xukuumada Itoobiya ee ku sugan magaalada caasimada ee Muqdisho ayaa ku diley dhalinyaro ku jiray xarun internetka laga isticmaalo oo ku taala agagaarka ex-cantarol [dhanka Suuqa Xoolaha].

Ma'aha markii ugu horaysay ee sidan oo kale ay ku xasuuqaan dad rayid ah ciidamada Itoobiya, bishaan bartamaheeda ayay ahayd markii ay ku dileen sadex wiil oo walaalo ah agagaarka ex-kuliyadii ciidamada ee Jaalle Siyaad, kadib markii halkaasi ay gaari nooca Uralka ah miino kula qaraxday.

If our current divisiveness (Somaliland, Puntland, Jubbaland…..) continues, we will fall the schemes of our enemies. We must rise up above tribalism and I against my brother and step up to the plate and liberate our people once and for all and make Somalia the best country to live in the world. Saas ayaa la rabaa. Gooni gooni iyo kala goosasho wax ee soo kordhineyso ayaa iska yar. Soomaali haddaan nahnay dhibaatadda kaliya waxaa ugu bixi karnaa, oo aan xal ku heli karnaa: Midnimo, isku duubni, iskaashi, isbiirsi, isbaheysi iyo caddaalad iyo sinnaan walaaltinimo.

WaaaaaaaaaW. Qurux badanaa barbaarta. Crowds celebrate Somali festival LEWISTON - The city's Multi-Purpose Center seemed to be transformed into a colorful, joyous, distance place Saturday night as the fifth annual Somali-American independence festival was celebrated. Festival coordinator Omar Ahmed explained the festival is held every year to celebrate Somali's July 1 independence from Italy and the United Kingdom, and the U.S.' July 4 independence. The festival encourages "the two communities to come together so that we can have the best of time," Ahmed said as African music played in the background. The two communities are immigrants and nonimmigrants. The event also appreciates diversity, and this year is celebrating Lewiston winning the All-American City award. "It's very happy, very fun," Ahmed said. Margaret Main of Lisbon Falls, who was sitting in the bleachers waiting for the entertainment to begin, said this was the first Somali festival she's attended. She came with her husband, who works for the city of Lewiston. "I just want to learn a little bit of understanding about the culture Somalis have," she said. Near to her was Fadumo Tahlil of Portland, who was there to read poetry. Tahlil said the day was not to worry. Most Somalis have family and friends still in war-torn Somalia who weigh heavy on their minds every day. Saturday was a time to not to think about the suffering, but to celebrate the culture, Tahlil said. Asked what she likes best about the Somali culture, Tahlil immediately said "the clothing." In her flowing Somali dresses, scarves and wraps, "I feel more like a woman," she said with a smile. Within minutes, four dancers seemed to illustrate her point. The Rwandan dancers moved to the center of the room, two dressed in red, two in white. With smiles and grace, they captured everyone's attention as they swayed. Asha Wilson, 3, of Lewiston, laughed as she dashed out and momentarily danced with the woman before running back to her mother. As in most events, there were speeches and tributes. Behind the stage was a large American flag and a blue-and-white Somali flag. The "Star-Spangled Banner" was played, then the Somali national anthem was sung. A few boys wore white shirts with the Somali national logo of blue and a white star. In his speech Ismail Ahmad, who works as a cultural skills trainer, said that in Lewiston, Somalis have for their children "blessed peace," security, shelter and food. "This we could not guarantee in refugee camps and in our country." He asked festivalgoers to think of those who could not be there with them. It's not easy to journey from Somalia to the United States, but they have done it. "We proudly call Lewiston our home, to the amazement of many," Ahmad said. They consider Maine their "home sweet home." Lewiston Mayor Laurent Gilbert began his remarks by offering a few greetings in the Somali language. His effort made the faces of several light up as they applauded. Gilbert said the addition of Somalis and other immigrants to Lewiston "have added to the fabric of our city. It is with your help we've become an All-America City." After the speeches, more dancing brought out more smiles. A group of young girls wearing identical pink-and-black dresses showed off Somali moves. After a group of boys, wearing matching striped shirts, performed a different style of Somali dance. Meanwhile a young men's dance group, wearing white shirts that read Somali, were waiting their turn to perform. They came to Lewiston from Connecticut. Sitting together taking in the celebration was Terry Waite, in typical American clothes, and her young Somali friend, wearing a brightly colored long dress and head scarf. Waite works at Lewiston High School. She came after being invited by the Somali girl. Admiring her young friend's outfit, Waite said Somali girls at Lewiston High School always look so feminine. The festival is sponsored by the African Immigrants Association. Festival coordinator Ahmed was pleased with the attendance. People were slowly filling the center, and more were walking down Birch Street. Each year more come, Ahmed said. Maine Sun Journal There is something about this image. LoL. Very cute.

There were several teams here from London area, and one of them played tonight against Soomaali United [a well-regarded, disciplined Koronto-based team]. Shame on North London team. Shame on them. Their captain, whom I had met at Banaadir restaurant a week ago that if I had known his team were like that runtaa u sheegi lahaa. Meeshaan vacation ayee u imaadeen, ee ciyaar uma imaan. 3:0 ayaa la diray; actually, the score should have said 7:0. Next time, reer North London, isa soo dhisa. Balaayo aan ordi karin oo lafo lafo iyo xiito xiito ah, iskaba dhaaf inay wax ciyaaraan.

Ninka isboonsar uu kaa balanqaaday muu kuu waday xee tahay ka dabasocodkaan aa dabasocotid? Let him enjoy his vacation. Wah. PS - Maan, Xasan Aaden Samatar iyo C/qaadir Jubba ayaa tumaayo caawa for a Kowda Luulyo celebration. And here I am ,just got back from outside and sitting infront of this mirror. I should have heeded my friends and gone to chill there since it is holiday tomorrow. But the darn place is at Scarborough?!?! Why, oh, why. Why not the usual places at the West.

He wrote many songs as an abwaan, and numerous plays as a playwriter. Most famous ones being the nationalist plays in the 1970s Soomaali Galbeed war, such as Waa maadays adduunyada, dadkuna way matalayaan and Gari makaa baxdaa. He also wrote, I don't know which ruwaayad it was in, for that '70s war that well-regarded xaad ku kicineyso daljecel song: Dhulka soo anigu malihi? [Haa, haa] Dalka [dadka] soo anigu malihi? [Haa, haa] Ninkii dhoof ku yimid bee geerida dhibeysaa Waqtigii dhamaayo Wuu dhaqaaqi doonaa. And of course the most well-known and well-liked of them all: Qabrigii Jaceylka. He both wrote the play, which the song includes, in the '70s. And last being the post-civil war plays he wrote at dibadda where he resides now, for and about dibadjooga, including labadii lala dhacay Qabyo and Qabyo II.

A very emotional and subdued Soomaali legends singing the full version of Soomaaliyeey Toosoo. It is very touching, ee marka fiirso. The legends such as Xasan Aaden Samatar, Khadro Daahir iyo Cabdiqaadir Jubba are all lined up, and joined on the stage by other notables: Nakruuma, Cabdi Dige, C/jabaar Khaliiji and the then upcoming Sheegoow Band. The show, which was a fundraising event for Red Cresent, happened in early '90s in Koronto. [Two well-known former Waaberi (and whom I personally know) guitarists are in too: Cabdicasiis Dhoore and Cali Atoore.

A call to stop installation of an illegal adminstration ROCHESTER, MN- Southern Somali Union expresses its deep concern over the returning systematic victimization of our unarm[ed] population of Lower Shebelle, Jubas, Gedo and coast of Banadir residence who have suffered excessively during the past sixteen years under the brutal warlords. We call and urge Somalia’s Transitional Federal government authority to stop its clandestine hostility covered under the name of Administration building, favoring former oppressors of Southern Somali citizens to control and dominate recently launched administration for these regions. We are deeply troubled by the official announcement in print out of the Transitional Federal government office in Mogadishu relating to published activities to bring back a remnant of former notorious warlord Yusuf Indhacade’s men who have perpetuated unimaginable crimes against the local people over a decade now. Any consideration given to incorporate these know criminals into the fold of a genuine administration building process desired by the people of these localities will bring back grievances related to the past abuses and injustice that has not been resolved. We call on the President to do the right thing and ask his administration to take back these nominations of criminal intent. We also make a similar call and request to the Members of Transitional Federal Parliament to show some courage and nullify this unjust decision. It is least to say, we are utterly disappointed these men can even be considered to administer a place they had ransack for many years, and are under direct implication of being partially if not fully responsible of delegating their militia-men from central Somalia to murder, gang rape, arrest and deport innocent civilians out of their homes. They had forcefully confiscated many fertile farmlands belonging to these victims, and in the process cut off their source of food and shelter creating total dependency and starvation. Henceforth, we the Southern Somali Union believe that Somalia needs effective political and administrative government institutions were the Federal Charter is used as medium to safeguard any confusion that can stem from its application. The Transitional Charter specifies a decentralized federal government where everyone is entrusted to peacefully govern their region without any fear of criminal intruders being rewarded to score political pointers. Therefore, we call on the Transitional Federal Government and Members of Parliament to uphold and abide by the Federal Charter and correct any mistakes that was made in this process as soon as possible.
