Qashinkaan intee kasoo aqrisay. Shuud. Itoobiya is Horn of Afrika kulahaa. Perhaps the dude who wrote that crap does not know the literal and original meaning behind the word 'horn.' Mise wuxuu ka maseersanyahay that word mostly associated with Soomaaliya as a country and the wider region -- which Xabasholand of Tigrey and Amxaar includes. He wished Itoobiya alone were known or awarded that. Jabuuti should have been returned to Xabasholand kulahaa. Since when was it part of it ever? There is no such nation called "Itoobiya," only a fragmented nations and peoples la isku kabkabay and occupied territories, and always protected by outside powers. Soon Oromos -- the largest people in the region -- will free their land and country, Oromiya. Let the three million Tigreys and the four million Amxaars carve a fancy empire called "Itoobiya" or that old grand name, "Abissinia," if they want. However, not at the expense of other people as they did the last hundred years or so and still doing.

Forget robot rights, experts say, use them for public safety James Randerson Tuesday April 24, 2007 The Guardian Scientists have criticised a [british] government report which advocated a debate on granting rights to super-intelligent robots in the future as "a distraction". They say the public should instead be consulted over the use of robots by the military and police, as carers for the elderly and as sex toys. The robotics experts were commenting on a report published by the Office of Science and Innovation's Horizon Scanning Centre in December. The authors of Robo-rights: Utopian dream or rise of the machines? wrote: "If artificial intelligence is achieved and widely deployed (or if they can reproduce and improve themselves) calls may be made for human rights to be extended to robots." The idea of robots becoming so smart that they acquire a conscious sense of self has fascinated science fiction writers for generations. The recent films I, Robot and Bicentennial Man, both based on books by Isaac Asimov, dealt with the question of whether intelligent robots should enjoy human rights. In the first a policeman played by Will Smith tracks a robot called Sonny that has apparently gone against its programming to commit murder. In the second Andrew the robot embarks on the quest for equal rights. But the scientists said true robot intelligence is so far in the future that it should not be treated as anything more than science fiction. "It's really premature I think to discuss robot rights," said Owen Holland, a computer scientist and expert on machine consciousness at Essex University. "[This report] is certainly not based on science and it is not realistic." Noel Sharkey, a roboticist at the University of Sheffield who is a regular contributor to the BBC's Robot Wars, agreed, but he said there were more immediate concerns. "The idea of machine consciousness and rights is ... a bit of a fairy tale as far as I'm concerned," he said. "My concern is about public safety. I think we need proper, informed, public debate about where we are going with robotics at the moment. We need to tell the public about what's going on in robotics and ask them what they want." Last year the South Korean military unveiled a robot border guard built by Samsung that can shoot targets up to 500 metres away. He said these could be programmed with a shoot-to-kill policy. The US, meanwhile, is on the way to achieving its goal of replacing one third of its ground vehicles with autonomous robots. "It would be great if all the military were robots and they could fight each other, but that's not going to be the case," he said. "My biggest concern there is that it goes against the body bag politics. If you don't have body bags coming home, you can start a war much more easily." Once robots become more common in warfare, he predicted they would be used more widely in policing and surveillance; so far there has been very little serious and informed public debate on these issues. Offenders could, he suggested, be monitored at home by a guard robot and the streets could be patrolled by mobile robot CCTV. They could also be used to deal with riots and other civil disturbances, he predicted. "Imagine the miners' strike with robots armed with water cannon." By providing companionship and basic care and health monitoring for older people, robo-carers could look after the increasing numbers of elderly people. And he predicted that vibrating sex-robots would be available soon for those bored with blow-up dolls. -------------- Since I had decided a few years ago that nothing, absolutely nothing, will ever surprise me anymore in Galbeedka, this will join the long, just-shake-your-head-and-move-on list, and surely won't be on the top, either.

Originally posted by Castro: Do you happen to know the biographies of these men? Including which clan each belonged to? It would be instructive to learn the path each took to get to the SYL and how they dealt with clan politics among themselves and in the society at large. They mostly downplayed their qabiil identities runtii; and they utmostly succeeded on that. Very, very few Soomaalis know their clans and those whose clan they know are a handful number of them only. I am very glad they achieved to downplay their qabiils completely. The little info. I do know is. Daahir Xaaji Cismaan and Yaasiin Xaaji Cismaan were brothers, and their pictures are the top, slight right corner, along with Cismaan Geedi Raage, who is on the top right corner, next to Daahir Xaaji Cismaan Dhagaweyne. Several of them were named after several public schools pre-war. Mostly famous schools were Cismaan Geedi Raage in Wardhiigleey; Yaasiin Xaaji Cismaan; Saqaawadiin; Max'ed Cismaan Baarbe in Wadajir [?]. Read this essay a founding member wrote few years ago. In that essay, Daahir Xaaji Cismaan writes: Markaan soo xusuuusto xilligii uu hanaqaaday xisbigii SYL marna waa farxaa, marna waa naxaa. Waa farxaa oo waxaan soo xusuustaa wanaaggii, wadaninimadii, midnimadii, isqadarintii iyo kalsoonidii Soomaalidu isu qabtay waagaas, kuna guuleeysatay. Marna waa naxaa, oo waxaan arkaa xaaladda maanta Soomaali ku sugan tahay oo ah: dawlad la'aan, daryeel la'aan, dagaal joogto ah, dulli qaxootinimo iyo dugaagnimo. [sNIP] Shan ilaa lix bilood markuu furanaa Xisbigu, ayaa waxaa dhacay qiso la yaab leh. Dhiinsiga Ingiriiska ayaa noo yeeray oo na tusay warqad ku qoran farta Cismaaniya. Wuxuu yiri "Warqaddaan waxaa laga helay jeebka nin shufto ah oo ciidamadu dileen, sidaas daraadeed, waxaan idin farayaa ianaad joojisaan hawsha Xisbiga oo dhan ilaa iyo inta arrintaan laga baarayo, lagana salgaarayo inaad lug ku leedihiin iyo in kale". Arrintii markii la baaray waxay noqotay warqad uu ninkaas la dilay ka helay xaaskiisa oo Gaalkacyo ku sugan, kana wareeysaneeysa xaaladiisa iyo sababta akhbaar looga waayey. Markaas ka dib ayaa naloo fasaxay Hawshii Xisbiga. Taasi waxay ku tusaysaa sida diiradda loogu hayey Xisbiga. [sNIP] Intaan guddigu imaan, Leegadu waxay qabatay shriweeyne ay ka soo qaybgaleen Guddiyada Leegada ee gobollada Soomaaliyeed oo idil, si looga wadatashado, meelna la isula dhigo mawqifka Leegada ee ku aadan Guddigaas. Wadatashi iyo dood dheer ka dib, Leegadu waxay go’aansatay in la codsado in Soomaliya ay wadajir u maamulaan Afarta Quwadood. Go’aankaasi wuxuu ku saleeysnaa laba aragti oo ah: Inaan marnaba la aqbali karin in la soo celiyo Talyaaniga oo la ogyahay maamulxumadiisa iyo waliba dhibaatda uu u geeystay ummadda Soomaaliyeed. Inkastoo Ingiriisku ku dhawaaqay inuu Soomaalida oo idil meel isugu keenayo, loona riyaaqay oraahdaas, haddana waxaa la istusay inaan la aamini Karin Ingiriiska. Leegadu waxay Ingiriiska u aragtay Dawlad weeyn oo mustacmir ah oo aan la iska kicin Karin mar hadday kugu habsato. [sNIP] Dhacdadii Dhagaxtuur Bishii Sebtembar 1949 ayaa waxaa furmay kalfadhigii Golaha Guud ee Qaramada Midoobay. Kalfadhigaas ayaa laga sugayey inuu go’aan ka gaaro aayatiinka dalalkii Talyaanigu gumeeysan jirey ooy Soomaaliya ka mid ahayd. Leegadu waxay New York u dirtay Mudane Cabdullahi Ciise si uu cabbiro Mawqifka Leegada oo ahaa in Afarta Quwadood ay wadajir u maamulaan Soomaaliya, madaxbannanina ku gaarsiiyaan muddo 10 sano ah, iyo inaan marnaba dalka lagu soo celin Talyaani. Waxaa xusid mudan in kharashkii ku baxay safarkiisa ay ku tabaruceen gabdhaha Leegada oo gaday dahabkoodii . Bishii Oktoobar horrankeedii waxaa la helay farriimo muujinaya in Soomaaliya loo dhiibi doono Talyaaniga. 5tii Oktoobar 1949 ayaa Leegadu mudaaharaad ka dhan ah Talyaaniga, ku sameeysey goobta loo yaqaan Dhagaxtuur. Ingiriiska wuxuu soo diray askartiisii oo amar ku bixiyey in 15 daqiiqo gudahood dadka mudaaharaadaya ku kala dareeraan. Haseyeeshee, lagama yeelin, balse waxaa loogu jawaabay dhagax lagu tuuray askarta oo lagu asqeeysiiyey. Waa sababta goobtaas loogu baxshay Dhagaxtuur. Askartii waxay dadkii ku fureen xabbado. Waxaa halkaas ku dhintay laba qof, waxaana ku dhaawacmay 50. Afar booliska Ingiriiska ah ayaa halkaas lagu dhaawacay. Ingiriisku intaas kuma ekaan ee wuxuu musaafuris ku xukumay qaar ka mid ah madaxda Leegada. Waxaa Ceelbuur loo musaafuriye Aniga oo Daahir ah, Maxamuud Maalinguur, Cali Xirsi, Ottavio iyo Xaaji Diiriye Xirsi. Their initial manifesto was simple, yet powerful, unheard in those days in Soomaaliya: In loo halgamo, lana xaqiijiyo gobanimada iyo madaxbanaanida ummadda Soomaaliyeed. In shanta Soomaaliyeed la mideeyo, hal maamulna la isugu keeno. In xoog la saaro tacliinta, siiba in lagu dadaalo waxbarashada dhallinyarada, iyadoo la aaminsanaa inaan horumar iyo madaxbanaani la gaari Karin tacliin la'aanteed. In Afsoomaaliga la qoro oo weliba la qaato farta Cismaaniyada, iyadoo fartaas loo arkayey inay tahay mid waddani ah. In shacabka lagu baraarujiyo halganka gobanimadoonka iyo madaxbanaanida. In la tirtiro caadooyinka iyo dhaqamada foosha xun ooy ka mid yihiin qabyaaladda, quursiga, iskala takoorka iwm. And this is 1943! Ka waran kuwa maanta Soomaali iska sheeganaayo oo waxaas inaay kusoo dhacdo iska dhaafee, xataa intii hartay in la kala tirtiro rabo, qabyaalad qurunkeeda ku nool, takoornimo, quursi iyo cunsurinimo ku dhaqma. ------------- Daahir Xaaji Cismaan [Dhagaweyne) i think is the only member still alive?

Qoys magaalo degan ayaa iska ahayn. However, like many other Soomaali families, many siblings abroad ayee jireen, qaarkood waxbarasho, qaarkood shaqo, qaarkoodna ganacsi. Runtii civil war or not, Soomaali badan ayaa dalka ka maqneed, and probably many more were going. Soomaalidaas dibadjooga ahaa waa lagu baxsaday dagaaladda markee dhaceen. Haddaan shaqsi ahaan ka doorto liiskaas, beer lahaansho ayaan dooran lahaa.

Faransiiska renamed their illegal colonial territory from "French Soomaaliland" to "French Territory of ..." The date of renaming? 1967, the same year riots took place, some demanding an immediate reunification to Soomaali Republic. Faransiiska panicked, beginning to change the name of the territory, erasing the 'Soomaali' part and even forcibly exiling thousands of Soomaalis to Awdal and Soomaali Galbeed. Those following images will illustrate. Protesters stand on barrels and wave sticks during riots in Djibouti caused by a falsified referendum produced by the French government stating that a majority of voters had voted to continue French rule. The manipulated results of the vote were achieved by the arrest of opposition leaders and the expulsion of the Somali population.

[1967] -------------- If Faransiiska did not stage that forged and bogus 'referendum' or if the referendum went smoothly, as opposed to manipulation and falsification in mid '60s, Jabuuti today would have been in Soomaali Republic, even with some Canfar objections. Faransiiska, unlike their colonial Ingiriis counterparts in Waqooyi, waxaa u darnaa their military outpost ku yaalay Jabuuti, which they invested heavily, ilaa haddana ku yaalo. Sadly, another decade of Faransiis indoctrination rule that had empowered Canfars politically, the military coup that took place on 1969 in Soomaaliya, dagaalkii 1977 ee Soomaali Galbeed and increasingly authoritarian military regime -- all gave a great ammunition to Faransiiska colonial rulers to persuade the Jabuuti Soomaali elites to opt an independent republic instead of joining Soomaaliya. However, it would have been different in '60s, when Soomaaliya was a shining beacon, a model for Afrika.

With a few clarification words, let me use the writer's own ideas and sentence. The TFG is all we have now. We cannot deny it the support and the resources it immediately needs and then expect it to do well. In the eyes of some of us the TFG may be bad or fall short of our expectations. But, seventeen years of anarchy and bloodshed must have taught us that a bad government is better than no government at all. No, we don't have a dowlad ku sheeg. We have a Xabashi occupation. We CANNOT deny that. We cannot also deny the resources, political support and national defense of the country and to the liberation groups need immediately. In the eyes of most of us, Xabasho is a real, an occupying force. Seventeen years of internal, domestic interference, arming one warlord today over the other, and the same warlord over the other yesterday, we've had enough of Xabasho and their constant hindrance of a united, peaceful Soomaaliya. If seventeen years of Xabashi interference was not enough, her brutal occupation of the entire country today should be what unites us all and make us defend our country, and kick the few stooges u shaqeeyo out.

There was a Brazil-based forum I had come across a few years ago. What surprised me was a whole section dedicated to Soomaalidda, whereas the rest of Africans had one section lumped. Alas, my expections were dimished by a few Soomaalis on that forum who, even on a Brazili forum, isku kala bixinaaye qabiil, a couple of them desperately trying to "educate" [miseducate, actually] the disinterested shisheeyaha on that forum about peculiar sub-sub-clans of Soomaalidda.

Mainly: how can we be reassured Islam will not be misused like Somaalinimo was misused? Haye noo sheeg, who misused Soomaalinimo? Oh, no, don't tell me the likes of Frail Stooge of Xabashadda do. They have nothing to do with Soomaalinimo, as I had wrote previously. So, who else do you have in mind that have 'misused' Soomaalinimo, which is purely about -- and it does not require any layer aad ka qaadid -- walaaltinimo and iskaashi iyo midnimo? Of course they are some individuals who ku takarafalay magaceena Soomaali, in order to gain maal ama jago. Kuwaas waa qabqabliyaasha, the likes of the Stooge, Max'ed Dheere, Indhamadoowe.

Iyaga kalina kuma koobna oo any so-called jabhad that had the "S" word in it abused, squandered, even desecrated Soomaalinimo, from left to right. I agree on this one that they perverted the ideas of Soomaalinimo. However, Soomaali badan ayaa jiro u taagan Soomaalinimo, oo ka daacad ah.

Mr Maslah's widow, Sahra, 35, today paid tribute to her husband, speaking from the family home in Kentish Town. Mrs Maslah said: "My husband was working hard to provide for his family when he was taken from us in this way. "He was a decent, loving husband and father who did not deserve to die like this. I am devastated." She added: "Death is God-given and it happens to everyone. But this murder was a gruesome and barbaric act. "The way that he was killed is the hardest thing to take. He was not a violent man and he loved his family." Mr Maslah was found by police near his Vauxhall Zafira outside a block of flats in Sherborne Street shortly after 3am. It is thought he had been involved in an argument with a man and a woman. He fled to Britain from his warravaged homeland in 1989 and was granted asylum. His wife came to join him two years later. The couple started a family in London and had five children, two daughters, Sowsan, aged 11, and one-year-old Samiya, and three sons, Ahmed, 10, Yahya, eight, and three-year-old Maslah. Mr Maslah's uncle Sayid Ahmed Ali said the tragedy had taken a terrible toll on the children. He told how the older children refused to accept their father was not coming home. Mr Ali, 57, said: "The youngest two do not really understand but the eldest three are deeply affected. "They keep saying 'I don't believe he is dead. He will come back'." Mr Ali said that the family would not rest until his nephew's killers were in jail. He said: "My nephew came to this country to build a better life for his family but now he is dead. The law must take its course but we want the people that did this to face justice." He added: "If someone is killed in this way those responsible must pay the price. "We would ask anyone who can help the police to make this happen to do all they can." Detective Chief Inspector Mark Kandiah, of the Met's Serious Crime Directorate, is leading the investigation. A man, 22, and woman, 20, arrested in connection with the murder are still in custody. Anyone with information should call the incident room on 020 8345 1585 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. Xigasho

The title reads "which city," if my eyes read that correctly. Not 'which tuulo.' Ee marka buulooyinka, tuulooyinka iyo degmooyinka aad meesha soo taxdeen dib u ceshta.
