Re: Xamar, city in the shadow of death..

[D-Runner]

will you ever think of going back to xamar? I remember there was a district called if iyo akhiro? the thought of that city creeps me out...I don't think I will ever go back there.

Moving back to Xamar is like hitting the rewind button on your DVD player so be my guest if your prepared to live the "mooryaan fever" that befall it once you hit play.

Try reasoning with the spokesman of the Hawiye traditional elders, Ahmed Diriye about giving back the property he seized during the USC heydays belonging to that Dhulbahante family and see how he gets PISS OFF! For sure he'll plant one big spit right between your eyes with his rather large mouth.

Yes that "mooryaan fever" is still very much alive, the only difference is their aren't enough "Darood" around to satisfy the "mooryaan fever" of going door to door in search of property to seize, women to rape, elders to mutilate, children to make orphans out of and innocent men to kill.

Ever the drama-queen aren't you, Shilling?

I don't know what place of doom you've just created out of thin air, but certainly not the Xamar I visited in '06. There are countless non-Hawiye who call the city home today, including many Daarood including numerous MJs who are either residents in the city or visit it for business or academic reasons. Have you ever seen it? Probably not. Then do all of us a favor and don't regurgetate the same old stereotypes about the place. Go and visit it instead. I'll guarantee you that Hawiye death squads armed with Daarood detectors will not seek and attack you. 22 years is a long time to be holding a grudge, adeer.

Spot on D-Runner. MJs can't even do business without running through intermediaries, and even then when its found out, they are harassed immediately. Hotel Muna is a solid example of this mentality of theirs. Even after the suicide bombing last year, which can be dismissed, the first target of the protesters in this latest rioting was the Hotel Muna, one of the more prominent MJ-owned hotels in the town and the only major one in the government-controlled areas. Why? There are many hotels that host TFGers, why attack Hotel Muna which hosts all of the lowest-ranking gov't members? Hate. No other reason. You can't wipe away this mentality, you can simply go your separate ways and I'm glad many of our people understand this. We can buy veggies from Hawiye farm owners and they can use our ports to conduct trade, but there really is no chance that we'll ever live peacefully in their midst. We have a different culture than them, the whole nation has a different culture than them, a culture that hosts outsiders and dismisses the weak among them, but Hawiye have nigger brains, they can only attack the weak among them it seems.

This is life.

Can you please post pictures of qardho so we can laugh?

And yes it has its own prison... zero tolerance for any mooryaan, blessed people.

It reminds of a story my brother told me once. while he was in xamar at a restaurant these two guys started arguing about something. soon the two guys started throwing punches. he thought he better leave before they started shooting. he thought they were hg only to find out the owner of the restaurant and the two guys fighting were all cumar maxamud. Now a days is all about money. of course hawiye is majority in the city just like darood is majority in kismayo but that doesn't mean other tribes don't live there. some people want to keep things the way they are.

[Murax]

Tens and thousands of folks are demonstrating in favor of a Non Hawiye PM and against a Hawiye President so much for Mogadishu being tribal

If anything they are on a completely different level in terms of being beyond the darkness of qablaayad

NICE!

Throw in some pics of Xaafada Israac & Suuqa, Qardho is ballin' status.

[D-Runner]

Lol @Tens of thousands

Murax, unfortunately only an ilkayar blindsided by the forced resignation of another ilkayar would be naive enough to believe the demo orchestrated by officials who are about to lose their post.

[melo]

Axmed diriye is an elderly statesmen, who has the respect of the population of Xamar. Desist from speaking ill of our chairman

[Murax]

I know it bothered You Shilling that His predecessor left without anybody missing HIm in Xamar except His fridge and X Box, while tens of thousands showed up to protest across the city at just the THOUGHT of Him losing His post, but it had zero to do with qabiil. One was competent and one was incompetent and thats all it was!

Monk, thankx for the pics sxb... brings back a lot of memories. The only month I didn't miss a single prayer I spent in Qardho and now here I am in Seattle with not one Athan to be heard, the place is truly blessed.

they've realized that if people are united they can do great things, majerteen seek to stir others into a never-ending of tribal-hate. that's the only way they'll survive.

At least hateful SNM waa dad xishooda oo isla yaaba, but majerteen that's a shameless sociopath for you.

[Armstrong]

just look at the place they want to compare with xamar cadeey. A desert with few shanty houses in the middle of nowhere.
