Latest developments taking place in Somalia

An ugly mode has turned more uglier that is the picture. The war turf between Yeey and Nuur Caade is in the TFG parliament now. It will depend on who among the two can harness more MP's to his cause. It is back to happy-days for the MPs.

The other notable aspect is also the disunity affecting the Islamist militants be it Al-Shabaab or ICU loyal either to Sheikh Sharif or Hassan Aweys. Clashes among this groups is imminent whether now or even in the near 'immediate' future when the Ethiopians withdraw .

As for (Labada Duuliyaal) Yeey and Nuur Caade their fiasco might make a different turn by the end of the day depending on the outcome of the mini IGAD Summit in Nairobi. If they are vocal and insist on endorsing Nuur Caade's plan then Yeey might be forced to concede, bearing in mind he cannot go against IGAD and still claim to be president when he is an end product of their doing.

In simple words the turmoil has just got worse and some heads will roll.

^^ Only those of innocents and small time MPs, saaxib. The rest will just swap sides, step back and act like elder statesmen or carry the fight and salvage something from the rabble. It's always been thus.

The Dead Parrot Sketch

Monty Python

The Pet Shoppe

A customer enters a pet shop.

Customer: 'Ello, I wish to register a complaint.

(The owner does not respond.)

C: 'Ello, Miss?

Owner: What do you mean "miss"?

C: I'm sorry, I have a cold. I wish to make a complaint!

O: We're closin' for lunch.

C: Never mind that, my lad. I wish to complain about this parrot what I purchased not FIVE YEARS ago from this very boutique.

O: Oh yes, the, uh, the ETHIO Blue...What's,uh...What's wrong with it?

C: I'll tell you what's wrong with it, my lad. 'E's dead, that's what's wrong with it!

O: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting.

C: Look, matey, I know a dead parrot when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now.

O: No no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'! Remarkable bird, the ETHIO Blue, idn'it, ay? Beautiful plumage!

C: The plumage don't enter into it. It's stone dead.

O: Nononono, no, no! 'E's resting!

C: All right then, if he's restin', I'll wake him up!

(shouting at the cage)

'Ello, Mister Yey Parrot! I've got a lovely fresh cuttle fish for you if you show...(owner hits the cage)

O: There, he moved!

C: No, he didn't, that was you hitting the cage!

O: I never!!

C: Yes, you did!

O: I never, never did anything...

C: (yelling and hitting the cage repeatedly) 'ELLO YEY!!!!!

Testing! Testing! Testing! Testing! This is your nine o'clock alarm call!

(Takes parrot out of the cage and thumps its head on the counter. Throws it up in the air and watches it plummet to the floor.)

C: Now that's what I call a dead parrot.

O: No, no.....No, 'e's stunned!

C: STUNNED?!?

O: Yeah! You stunned him, just as he was wakin' up! ETHIO Blues stun easily, major.

C: Um...now look...now look, mate, I've definitely 'ad enough of this. That parrot is definitely deceased, and when I purchased it not 5 YEARS ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it bein' tired and shagged out following a prolonged squawk.

O: Well, he's...he's, ah...probably pining for the PUNTS.

C: PININ' for the PUNTS?!?!?!? What kind of talk is that?, look, why did he fall flat on his back the moment I got 'im home?

O: The ETHIO Blue prefers kippin' on it's back! Remarkable bird, id'nit, squire? Lovely plumage!

C: Look, I took the liberty of examining that parrot when I got it home, and I discovered the only reason that it had been sitting on its perch in the first place was that it had been NAILED there.

(pause)

O: Well, o'course it was nailed there! If I hadn't nailed that bird down, it would have nuzzled up to those bars, bent 'em apart with its beak, and VOOM! Feeweeweewee!

C: "VOOM"?!? Mate, this bird wouldn't "voom" if you put four million volts through it! 'E's bleedin' demised!

O: No no! 'E's pining!

C: 'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This parrot is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker!

'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies!

'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig!

'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!!

THIS IS AN EX-PARROT!!

(pause)

O: Well, I'd better replace it, then.

(he takes a quick peek behind the counter)

O: Sorry squire, I've had a look 'round the back of the shop, and uh, we're right out of parrots.

C: I see. I see, I get the picture.

O: I got a slug.

(pause)

C: (sweet as sugar) Pray, does it talk?

O: Nnnnot really.

C: WELL IT'S HARDLY A BLOODY REPLACEMENT, IS IT?!!???!!?

O: Look, if you go to my brother's pet shop in KAMPALA, he'll replace the parrot for you.

C: KAMPALA, eh? Very well.

The customer leaves.

The customer enters the same pet shop. The owner is putting on a false moustache.

C: This is KAMPALA, is it?

O: (with a fake mustache) No, it's BUJUMBURA.

C: (looking at the camera) That's DAALLO AIRLINES for you.

The customer goes to the train station.

He addresses a man standing behind a desk marked "Complaints".

C: I wish to complain, DAALO AIRLINES Person.

Attendant: I DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS JOB, YOU KNOW!!!

C: I beg your pardon...?

A: I'm a qualified brain surgeon! I only do this job because I like being my own boss!

C: Excuse me, this is irrelevant, isn't it?

A: Yeah, well it's not easy to pad these python files out to 200 lines, you know.

C: Well, I wish to complain. I got on the KAMPALA plane and found myself deposited here in BUJUMBURA.

A: No, this is KAMPALA.

C: (to the camera) The pet shop man's brother was lying!!

A: Can't blame DAALLO AIRLINES for that.

C: In that case, I shall return to the pet shop!

He does.

C: I understand this IS KAMPALA.

O: (still with the fake mustache) Yes?

C: You told me it was BUJUMBURA!

O: ...It was a pun.

C: (pause) A PUN?!?

O: No, no...not a pun...What's that thing that spells the same backwards as forwards?

C: (Long pause) A palindrome...?

O: Yeah, that's it!

C: It's not a palindrome! The palindrome of "KAMPALA" would be "ALAPMAK"!! It don't work!!

O: Well, what do you want?

C: I'm not prepared to pursue my line of inquiry any longer as I think this is getting too silly!

Sergeant-Major: Quite agree, quite agree, too silly, far too silly...

Somalia’s president says Ethiopia ‘independent’ to remove troops

18 Nov 18, 2008 - 11:31:58 AM

 

 

 

TRIPOLI, Libya Nov 18 (Garowe Online) - Somalia’s interim President Abdullahi Yusuf has said that the Ethiopian government is ‘independent’ in its decision to withdraw its troops from Somalia.

 

During a Tuesday interview with the VOA Somali Service, President Yusuf suggested that the ongoing feud with Prime Minister Nur “Adde” Hassan Hussein has not deteriorated relations with Ethiopian leaders.

 

“Ethiopia has the independent choice to withdraw [from Somalia] if this is in the interests of regional security,” said President Yusuf, who is on an official trip to Tripoli, Libya.

 

The Somali president has reportedly met with Libyan leader Col. Muammar Qadafi at State House in Tripoli, but no information was available following their private meeting.

 

President Yusuf’s comments – which seem to welcome Ethiopian army withdrawal – come on the heels of a widening rift within the Somali transitional government, with Prime Minister Nur Adde leading a government faction.

 

The Somali leader has been attributed to recent comments that there is “no government” in Somalia, after he categorically refused to endorse the Prime Minister’s new Cabinet. READ: PM defiantly appoints new Cabinet

 

Somalia, in the Horn of Africa, has been mired in armed conflict since the early 1990s, with warlord and armed clans vying for power and resources.

 

Ethiopian troops backing Yusuf’s interim government who invaded the country two years ago were immediately bogged down in an Islamist-led rebellion that now controls most of the country’s central and southern regions.

 

The African Union has failed to complete a planned 8,000-strong peacekeeping force, while Islamist hardliners have rejected a UN-brokered peace deal signed last month.
