Ina dhoolayare - Huluul kagaquuso!

(Waridaad) - Somaliddu waxay ku maahmaahddaa- " Ninka hooyaddii ka guura, habaryartii kuma nagaaddo"

Cabdillahi Ducaale ha'iswaydiiyo xaaladda ay Huluul ku suggantahay oo ah tuuladduu ku soo barbaaray, kana bilaababay wax-barashaddiisii dugseed. Sawirka ka muuqda tuuladdaas iyo dayac-xummadda haysa dugsigii uu ka baxay waa kaaf iyo kala dheeri, dugsigaas oo xitaa ay jiingaddii sare ka maqantahay, iyaddoo ay tuuladdaas aanay lahayn habayaraatee adeega bulshadda ee assaasiga ah, sidda, xarun caafimaad; xarun nabadgelyo; biyo la'aanina ku habsatay, iyaddoo ceelkii keli ahaana uu dumay oo dib loo dayctirin, oo adeegeedda looga raadiyo meela fog-fog.

Taana waxaa dheer oo aynu xasuusanaa doorashooyinkii Golaha Wakiiladda iyo sidda uu ka dhigay degmaddii Ceel-afweyn oo uu kula baxay, HARAG MADHAN SIDE, ka dib markii hal xildhibaana ka soo bixi waayey, ka dib markii uu isdaba mariyey coddadkii dadka isagoo u boobaaya coddadka danahiisa, codadkii ummaddiisana ka doorbiday inuu Dahir Rayaale ku beer la xawsaddo.

Haddaba, Cabdillahi oo 17kii sannadood ee u danbeeyey wasiir ka ahaa dawladdahii kala danbeeyey, isla markaana ah wasiirka ugu cimri dherer ka badnaa, ayaan haddana dib u eegin halkii uu ka yimi. Waxaa maanta ayaan daro ah inuu Cabdillahi ku andacoodo ama ka dhigto cimri dherer Guurtidda oo u kordhisa wakhtiga si ay u sii fadhataystaan hantidda yar ee ummadda.

Inagoo sawirkaa aan tilmaamay tixraacayna, ma u malaynaysaan ummadd yahay inuu Cabdillahi Ducaale Somaliland dan ka leeyahay? Haddaba, kaga quusta wasiirka Huluul.

KOSOVO AND SOMALILAND: THE IMPOSSIBLE EQUATION-III

(Waridaad) - At any given time, people take sides on the vital political or social issues that affect their lives. The differences in our opinions and the diversity of the views exchanged is the essence of the political discourse. If and when the dialogue turns into name calling, those who rake the muck will sure get a shovel full of the sod on their faces and this is where this Greek professor has taken the issue of Somaliland's legitimate claim to sovereignty. He opined in his first article that Somaliland's claim is unsubstantiated. In his second article he states that, " "There is no legitimate right of the Somaliland gang to reclaim sovereignty; there is no nation called Somaliland; the breakaway state controls part of the national Somali territory without any particular reason other than the preservation of peace at a moment of strife in the Somali South. This does not consist in any right to sovereignty." Only an expert on international law can make such an unequivocal statement on the subject. The issue is beyond the qualification and the competence of this professor.

On March 25, 2008, the administration of www.Somalilandpatriots.com posted a news item from Gabiley along with the picture below. It was a festive occasion and the people were celebrating following announcement of the elevation of the district of Gabiley to a region. What is troubling about this story is that a Greek professor, named Muhammad Shamsaddin Megalommatis, has grabbed the picture, and pasted it at the top of anti-Somaliland article in a completely distorted context. Professor Megalommatis wants the world community to believe that the people of Somaliland are demanding unity with southern Somalia. He is trying to portray the government of Somaliland as the demon that is stifling public dissent. The fiend here is the hired man plying altered information throughout the internet.
Please click this link: http://somalilandpatriots.com/news-5227.html to see for yourself and compare it with the picture in this link http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/57815. The two pictures are exactly identical! Is it coincidence? Professor Megalommatis just borrowed picture and pasted it at the top of one of his articles titled "The Nile, Egypt, Abyssinia, Somalia, and Somaliland." published on the American Chronicle on April 7, 2008.

The caption under the picture reads: " Picture: the Somalis of Somaliland want unity with Somalia, as they know very well that the traditional enemies of Somalia, the Abyssinians, plan to destroy Somalia, and there are no traitors among the Somali people."

This is a disgraceful and an unprofessional act on the part of the professor to go to that low level in composing his response. The picture is taken in Gabiley and the people are celebrating; they are demonstrating for or aginst Somali unity period. What is so deviant and didturbing about the professor's intention is the gross misrepresentation of the symbolic meaning of the picture. Mr. Professor, this is not a credible way to persuade public opinion on the issue of Somaliland recognition. Let me ask the professor a few questions. Who provided you the picture in the first place? Is it the vanguards of the government of Embagathi Swine Stock Exchange fame? How much did you pay for it? This sure has the smell of a mercenary inclination and/or a hired lobbyist all over it!

The great champion of the down trodden masses of planet earth is resorting to diabolical tactics to mislead the readership of the American Chronicle. I hope the editorial board of the American Chronicle should take note of this. May I draw to the attention of the professor that neither the people in the picture nor any other individual in Somaliland will ever demand unity with Somalia- not now, not in a zillion years to come.

It is very unethical and morally reprehensible to misrepresent pictorial information in such a bold faced manner. Without the prior written approval of the owner or duly acknowledging the source, you can not reproduce any material. As long as the words “All Rights Reserved" appears anywhere in the domain of www.somalilandpatriots.com, the information contained in that portal is proprietary or copy right material. Retrieval, reproduction, and transmission of that stored information is prohibited without the consent of the portal owners. Of course a picture is worth a thousand words, but this one has one and only one connotation: Celebration on the conferring of a region to the inhabitants of Gabiley- it is not a demonstration against any perceived traditional or real enemies of the Somali people.

The professor went to that extreme to respond to two articles I wrote under the title: " Kosovo and Somaliland: The Impossible Equation."

1. The professor's response begins with: "What went wrong in Somalia was not the subject of my article." Certainly, the subject of discussion here is Somalia, and for some reason or the other, that nation ceased to exist as of January 29, 1991. We are dealing with a completely disintegrated society. Therefore, it is natural to ask the cause of this fragmentation: What went wrong? It is that simple. The Republic of Somaliland came out of the ashes of the turmoil associated with the inevitable collapse of Somalia. If the distinguished professor is not aware of what went wrong, then he should not be so passionate in defending the non-existent state of Somalia.

2. The professor's second point of defense states the subject merits the writing of a book. However, he “personally believes that the current division and strife in Somalia is preponderantly an external affair, a matter of multi-faceted foreign involvement, mainly American, Abyssinian, British and Chinese.” The weakness of the professor's argument is self-evident- he deliberately left out the internal players that really exacerbated the misery and the agony inflicted on the people of southern Somalia. The governments of the regional organisation, IGAD, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development are the number one spoilers. I do not understand how Mr. Megalommatis also left out the governments of Egypt, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Italy.

The dichotomy between the two preceding segments is obvious; the stark contradiction is: what went wrong in Somalia was not the subject of his article while at the same time the professor is stating the external factors that contributed to the problem.

3. Yes indeed, 'a nation that does not meet its full potential is an evolutionary failure'. A nation that can not maintain the cohesiveness of the fabric of its people is an evolutionary; a nation that can not provide the minimum necessities of modern life to its citizens is an evolutionary failure; and so is any nation that goes to war of annihilation against its citizens.

4. The evaluation of Somalia's failure or otherwise on a time scale is truly immaterial and irrelevant at this time. Whether professor. Megalommatis likes it or not, Somalia has failed and history will record it as such. The fabric of the Somali nation has flaked beyond recognition. For the past seventeen years, the warlords of Southern Somalia held that society hostage and put through it a perpetual state of war, anarchy, chaos, and desperation. These are the true perverts, traitors, and human savages that should be brought to the International War Crimes Tribunal at The Hague.

5. Between 1988 and 1991 the Somali Air force with the help of former Rhodesian mercenary pilots, pulverised the Somaliland cities of Hargeisa, Burao, and Berbera. The coordinated aerial bombardment and the indiscriminate artillery shelling of these cities terrorised the non-combatants civil population. The death toll among the civilian population was estimated at one hundred thousand; material destruction inflicted on the major cities stood at tens of billions of dollars. Who is liable to pay for all this? These are the memories of the survivors of the scorched earth policies of the Nazi-government of Siyad Barre. For the benefit of the professor, 99.999% of Ethiopia's export/import trade goes through the port of Djibouti and by the way, who are you, to dictate Somaliland what goes through its ports and how to handle its borders?

6. The professor's disdain for the African Union is unmistakable "Quite unfortunately, the African Union is not a respectable authority and an international body able to inspire high esteem; it´s the realm of tyrants, postcolonial gangsters kept at the helm through Anglo-French interference and preserved in their unelected positions in order to perpetuate Africa’s underdevelopment. This is not a credible source therefore, to say the least." How does the Arab League fair in the scheme of the professor Megalommatis' judgmental evaluation of international organisations? I hope he has a better score card for the nations of the Arab League.

7. "Irrelevant; so he was told to say, and so he said. His Master’s Voice – nothing more." I am the master of my own voice and my personal response to you is: And so you are hired hand and a paid lobbyist. The government of Embagathi Swine Stock Exchange bankrolls you to spew vitriolic politics of the spleen in cyberspace. Keep up the good work Mr. Professor. For your information, I am not a hired mercenary; I am defending the existence of my beloved country of Somaliland and if need be, Somali Landers will sacrifice their blood for it.

Baaq Ku Socda Ciidamada Qalabka Sida iyo Booliiska Somaliland

(Waridaad) - Walaalayaal, waad salaamantihiin waxaanad mudan tihiin hambalyo iyo bogaadin sida wadaninimada leh ee aad u difaacdaan qaranimada Somaliland iyo sida aad u sugtaan nabadgelyada gudaha samankan duruufaha adag ee aydaan haysan xuquuq idinku filan.

Walaalayaal, waxaad ka warqabtaan marxaladda adag ee siyaasadeed ee maanta dalku ku jiro. Waa waqti qof kasta oo Reer Somaliland ahi, gudaha iyo dibedaba, ay waajib wadani ah ku tahay inuu ogaado sababaha khalkhalka siyaasadeed keenay iyo gudashada kaalinta kaga aadan. Khalkhalkan siyaasadeed waxaa abuuray madaxweyne Daahir Riyaale Kaahin oo raba inuu u xuub-siibto kelitaliye macangag ah sidii Siyaad Barre si uu u horjoogsado doorasho xalaal ah oo dalka ka dhacda waqtiga loogu talagalay una sii haysto xukunka. Maanta Somaliland waxaa is-haya koox yar oo dib-u-socd ah oo uu hoggaaminayo abaal-laawe Riyaale oo raba inuu kelitalisnimo laga guuray soo cesho iyo xoogagga horusocodka ah ee raba xukun ku dhisan dimoqaraadiyad iyo doorasho xalaal ah kuwaas oo ay hoggaaminayaan Xisbiyada Mucaaradka. Waxaa la aaminsanyahay in khalkhalka siyaasadeed iyo nabadgelyeed, iyo doorasho-diidka ay wadaan Riyaale iyo kooxdiisu ay qayb ka tahay shirqool qaran-dumisnimo oo lagula dagaallamayo aqoonsiga Somaliland laguna mijaxaabinayo madaxbanaanideeda.

Walaalayaal, Waxaad kale oo la socotaan in lixdii sano ee Riyaale dalka ka talinayay (2002-2008) uu abuuray dhibaatooyin waaweyn oo uu ku dhaawacay horumarka, sumcadda, iyo aqoonsiga Somaliland. Dhibaatooyinkan waxaa ka mid ah:

• Ku tumashada dastuurka iyo shuruucda dalka, maroorsiga awoodaha qaranka,baalmaridda hay`adda sharci- dejinta qaranka (Golaha Wakiilada), gelidda heshiisyocaalami ah iyada oo aanay oggolaan Golayaasha Qaranka, iyo magacaabidda gobollo cusub oo aan qaarkood laga fiirsan dhaqaale ahaan iyo maamul ahaan sidoorasho loogu galo taas oo ah danaystinimo iyo qayru-mas`uulnimo aan weli la arag.

• Ku xad-gudubka xuquuqda muwaadinka iyo saxaafadda madaxbanaan.• Dhaawicidda ganacsiga dalka iyo curyaaminta Dekedda Berbera oo ah halbowlaha nolosha ummadda Somaliland.

• Wiiqidda nidaamka dimoqaraadiga ah ee ku salaysan xorriyadda iyo xuquuqdamuwaadinka iyo doorashada xalaasha ah.

• Ku caanbixidda wasiiro ma xishoodayaal iyo beenlaawayaal ah oo u caytama sidafoodleyda isla markaana aflagaadeeya beelaha, arrintaas oo ka baxsan xushmada,

anshaxa iyo maamuuska dawladnimo iyo warbaahinta qaranka oo loo adeegsado.
• Cir isku-shareerka qiimaha raashinka iyo shidaalka, badashada shaqo-la`aanta iyo raja-xumada dhallinyarada dalka.

• Ku tagrifalka hantida qaranka. Dalka waxaa soo gala dhaqaale xoog leh oo iskugu jira cashuur badan iyo lacago kale oo dalka laga qaado iyo dhaqaalaha dalalka deeqda baxsha. Dhaqaalaha intaas le`eg waxa uu noqday qayb Riyaale iyo kooxdiisu jeebka ku shubtaan dibedaha kagana dhistaan guryo iyo qayb loo adeegsado kala qaybinta ummadda iyo laaluush lagu fidsado xukunka sida falkii Guurtigu ku kacday dhawaan oo baalmarsan dastuurka dalka. Haddii uu jirilahaa xukun daacad ah oo dadka iyo dalka u adeegaya, dhaqaalahaas waxaa lagu kabilahaa laguna raqiisinlahaa qiimaha raashinka iyo shidaalka, waxaa lagu dhisilahaa wadooyinka, waxaa lagu hormarinlahaa caafimaadk iyo waxbarashada, waxaa dhallinyarada loogu abuurilahaa shaqooyin waxaana kor loogu qaadilahaa nolosha ciidamada dalka iwm. Halkaas waxaa ka cad in dalka ay ka taliso koox inta ummaddu dooratay isu bedeshay qawlaysato xadka ka baxday.

Walaalayaal, waxaa lagu jiraa qarnigii 21aad waana dhammaaday xilligii kelitalisnimo, xukun milatari, xukun qabiil, kala qaybin iyo iska horkeen waayo maslaxadda, horumarka, iyo danta qof kasta iyo beel kasta ee ummadda Somaliland waxay ku jirtaan xukun markasta ku yimaada doorasho xalaal ah oo loo wadajiro. Waa dhammaaday xilligii ciidamada loo adeegsanjiray cabsigelinta, cabbudhinta, xadhigga, dilka, iyo dhaca ummadda si loo sii haysto xukun ku dhisan dulmi, danaystinimo, iyo fasaad, waa dhammaaday xilligii ummadda beel beel loo kala saarijiray, laysku hubaynjiray layskana horkeenijiray si looga jeediyo dulmiga lagu hayo. Ummadda Somaliland way fahamtay danteeda waxayna ogtahay inay xukunka iyadu leedahay isla markaana ilaashanayso una dhiibanayso cidda u adeegaysa danaheeda.

Walaalayaal, ayaamahan waad la socotaan in Riyaale idinku soo ururuuriyay magaalooyinka waaweyn ee Hargeysa iyo Burco sidii Siyaad Barre si aad u cabsigelisaan, u cabbudhisaan dagaalna ugu qaadaan mucaaradka dalka, saxaafadda madaxbanaan, iyo shacabka is-bedeldoonka ah ee ka soo horjeeda kelitalisnimada Riyaale iyo kooxdiisa. Waxaa la rumaysanyahay in qaraxyada dalka ka dhaca ay ka dambeeyaan Maamulka Riyaale si loo jidaysto oo laydinku adeegsado la dagaalanka mucaaradka iyo horjoogsiga doorashooyinka dalka. Idanka oo huwan magac sharaf qaran ayuu Riyaale rabaa inuu idiin adeegsado siyaasadda qabyaaladda ku dhisan ee ‘xukun oo qaybi’ idinkuna dagaalgeliyo ciidan beeleed sida ciidanka Reer Boorame ee uu keenay Hargeysa. Arrimaha noocaas ah waa in laga hortagaa oo la diidaa ciidan iyo beelba waayo waxay cawaaqib-xumo u keenayaan beelaha walaalaha ah ee Somaliland. Waxaad uu dhaarateen inaad dalka ka difaacdaan cadowga dibedda iyo gudaha iyo inaad u adeegtaan maslaxadda guud ee ummadda, darajadiina, dirayskiina, hubkiina, iyo mushaharkiinaba waxaa leh ummadda, umaydaan dhaaran inaad difaacadaan maamul danayste ah oo daalim ah, Diinta Islaamkuna ma banaynayso inaad u dhimataan. Haku gaboodfalina ummadiina, damiirkiinu waa inuu diidaa u adeega xukun qaran-dumis ah. lama filayo inaad Riyaale ka qaadataan amarro lid ku ah mucaaradka iyo ummadda.

Walaalayaal, maanta Riyaale iyo kooxdiisu way ogyihiin inay jid qaldan ku joogaan, ummadduna way ogtahay, idina waad ogtihiin. Weligeedba dunida way jirtay shacab iyo xukun xun oo iska horyimaada markastana waxaa adkaada shacabka. Ummad haddii cadhadeedu biirto, dulqaadkeedu wuu dhamaadaa waanay is-badbaadisaa. Madaxweyne Riyaale iyo kooxda kula jirta qaran-dumisnimada ee ay ugu horreeyan: Cirro, Cawil, Buuni, Ina Sulub, Ina Dhoolayare, Bulaale, Ina Aw Daahir waxay ku joogaan jidkii kelitaliyayaashii Afrika ay ku jabeen kana dhaxleen taariikh xumada kuwaas oo ay ka mid ahaayeen: Idi Amin (Uganda, la riday1979), Hissen Habre` (Chad, la riday1990), Siyaad Barre (Somalia, la riday 1991), Haile Mengistu Mariam (Ethiopia, la riday 1991), Charles Taylor (Liberia, la riday 2003) iwm. Jidkan xun waxa kale oo ku jooga maanta madaxweyne Robert Mugabe ee Zimbabwe iyo madaxweyne Kibaki ee Kenya oo boobay doorashooyinkii u dambeeyay ee dalalkooda ka dhacay taariikhduna gaadayso.

Walaalayaal, maslaxadda, nabadgelyada, iyo horumarka dadka iyo dalku waxa ay ku jiraan in Riyaale iyo kooxdiisu u hoggaansamaan dastuurka dalka iyo waqtiga loo cayimay doorashooyinka.Haddii ay dhacdo in Riyaale ku gacansaydho go`aanka 3da Xisbi Qaran iyo Guddiga Doorashooyinka, baaqyada beesha caalamka, iyo rabitaanka ummadda Somaliland oo ah in doorashooyinka madaxweynaha iyo kuwa degaanada la kala qabto bilaha Oktoobar iyo Diisambar ee sannadkan 2008 islamarkaana uu dagaal ku qaado madaxda Xisbiyada Mucaaradka ah si loo horjoogsado doorasho dalka ka dhacda si uu xukunka u sii haysto, waxaa markkaas waajib muqadasa ah in Riyale iyo xukunkiisa lagu rido KACDOON DADWEYENE.

CIIDAMADA QALABKA SIDA IYO BOOLISKA SOMALILAND waxaa markaas waajib wadani ah idinku ah inaad ka dhiidhidaan dhibaatada dalka ka taagan lana dhiidhidaan ummadiina, la safataan, si buuxdana ugu biirtaan una taageertaan kacdoonka dadweynaha oo ay hoggaaminayaan mucaaradku si deg deg loogu rido xukunka Riyaale iyo kooxdiisa loona soo dhiso dawlad ku meel-gaadh ah oo rayid ah dalkana gaadhsiisa doorasho xalaal ah muddo gaaban oo cayimin. Waa in loo sii diyaargaroobaa xaaladahan. Marnaba lama aqbalikaro kelitalisnimo kale oo dadka iyo dalka dhibaato weyn u keenta sida tii Siyaad Barre. Madaxweynanimada Riyaale waad ogtihiin oo waxay ku egtahay May 15, 2008. Iskaashiga iyo wadajirka mucaaradka, dadweynaha, iyo ciidamada ayaa deg deg u rida kelitaliye kasta oo dal ka jira. Sidaas oo keliya ayaa lagu badbaadinkaraa dadka iyo dalka, lagu difaacikaraa madaxbanaanida Somaliland, loona helikaraa aqoonsi mustaqbalka. Guul Somaliland.
