Somalia presidential spokesman shot twice in capital

Postby Hiiraan boy » Tue Jun 19, 2007 4:07 am

MOGADISHU - Somalia’s presidential spokesman was shot twice at close range in the latest assassination attempt on government officials in the Horn of Africa nation, officials said today.

"He was shot in the neck and near the jaw," a security source said. "I think the gunman was aiming for the head. He wanted to eliminate him."

Speaking on condition of anonymity, the security source who saw Hussein Mohamed Mahamud "Hubsired" recuperating in a hospital run by AU peacekeepers in Mogadishu, said he was in stable condition and was to be flown to Nairobi for treatment.

Insurgents from a militant Islamist movement ousted from Mogadishu routinely attack government soldiers and their Ethiopian backers, and have increasingly used Iraq-style tactics including assassinations, suicide bombings and roadside blasts.

The assault came barely hours after two civilians died when a remote-controlled landmine detonated on a road as government vehicles passed yesterday.

The blast was near the venue of a peace conference which has already been postponed twice over insecurity. The conference is now scheduled to start on July 18.

Who the fu*k is the Somalia president?

The only living Somali president died more than a week ago and I don't know of any other president unless you are referring to Gebra Dila's beloved xaas. If that is the case, why would one shoot the Xaas' doorman when he can aim for the bigger prize!

Hiiraan dusheedaan
Ku harraadayaayoo
Hoobaan bislaatiyo
Habla kama sugaayee

Mar haddaanan helihayn
Hareerii Togdheeriyo
Hadhicii qaboobaa
Ina aan horseedoo
Hawshii la ii diray
Habwaag u fuliyaan
Hadalkii ku gooyee.

Isagoo hurdaayaa
Show Hadraawi yimiyoo
Heesta wacan ka tiriyee

Hawo beena baa tidhi
Hanballidan ammaanoo
Dhulkan hodan ku faallee
