  5. I really don't get it. Why defend one murderer against another? Sadam Hussien and Cabdullahi Yusuf are both murderers of innocent peoples. That should say enough about them. SAMAKAB - I'm still waiting for an answer. Why did you leave out Cabdullahi Yusuf & Cismaan Caato, and many more, out of the warlords you mentioned? :confused: :confused:
  6. I don't think the wisest route to discuss the question brother Samakab raised is to bring up the good vs. bad of the late Somali President Maj Gen Maxamad Siyaad Barre (Allah u naxariisto). I'm sure we all have our opinions but the topic is NOT directed towards him. The question simply asks the NEXT future president (hopefully they'll be one...one day). Anyways, back to the topic. I don't know of ANY Somali leader (or so-called leader) currently present in the Somali political arena who can lead our nation to the place most of us want to take it, i.e. peace & prosperity. However, I'm certain there's plenty of capable leaders who don't participate in the current dilemmas and turmoil our motherland is going through. Does that make them bad leaders? I think not. Long as they got potential and don't attract the hatred of the population (as all the warlords do), I think they're our last shot. Sooner or later, these warlords who continue to wreak havoc upon our people will all die off. The question is: what happens after that? Only time will tell.. SAMAKAB - A simple question for you brother: Out of a possible 2-digit number of warlords currently in Somalia, you named and specifically targetted four, one of which happens to be the legitimate and elected president of the self-declared Republic of Somaliland. First of all, I want to know why you placed President Riyale in that list, and more importantly, why you forgot about such traitorous and infamous leaders as Col Cabdullahi Yusuf and Cismaan Caato? Looking forward to you're answers..
  7. Thought-Control, I can see you're in complete control of you're thoughts! Anywho, its often sad to mention the topic of democracy NOT for what it essentially is but by the applealing and brainwashing power its achieved over the past several decades in many parts of the so-called "Third World." While 'democracy' works in the West, it has caused the deaths of millions and the looting of entire nations at the expense of their poor populations. An example of looting: I remember reading an article in New African magazine concerning the installation of state-of-the-art air traffic control equipment in a Tanzanian airport. The IMF (Int'l Monetary Fund) - funded & controlled by rich Western governments - forced this poor country (Tanzania) to sign a deal with a failing British firm to install this equipment. The catch: the IMF would lessen the annual debt Tanzania had to pay. The REAL catch: The installation of this equipment by a British firm saved THOUSANDS of jobs in the U.K.! By the end of the article, the Tanzanian government was still trying to find people who know how to operate the high-tech machines they bought! But hey, wait, its only DEMOCRACY!
  8. Good topic. Like Baashi said above, there's no written record of Somali history dating back to our origins. Therefore, this topic remains open to mere speculation. So, I think that since the story of Samaal and Sab is generally the accepted one across the Somali Peninsula, perhaps some of its elements ring true. Since all accounts of that particular portion of our history is simply by word of mouth, the story has certainly changed and evolved from generation to generation to the point whereby we're left with something that can be partly true or completely fabricated. Which path you choose is one of you're own.
