[quote="Sir-Luggoyo"]Caydiid,
You sound like a reasobale dude and I applaud you for that, and the fact that you braved and faced the marauding killing machines of Mog. However, your pragmatic approach of Xamar being peaceful does not hold water my friend. Despite living in Qurbo, we are well informed as much as those of you living inside, if not more. Maybe it's just we are not looking things from the same perspective, you, being satisfied with a lesser number of daily body bags and me, expecting no body bags at all, so if it makes you happy, I hope you enjoy your life to the fullest (If that is possible) and may Allah bring back the serenity that we all knew prior to the current madness.[/quote]
SIR,
"Maruading gangs"???? What year are you talking about? Today death in Mogadishu by unlawful means is reported by websites -and when was the last time you read about dozens, NO, say 3 people killed in Mogadishu???????? There are some tribal skirmishes and where dozens die but that happens in all over somalia.
"well informed"???? This is pure fabrication brother. I thought I was well informed when I went to the fadhi ku dirir places in London. I thought I was well informed when I listened to the BBC and semi-clanist websites. I thought I was well informed when I read GAALO relays. But I soon realized that the information from Mogadishu is tainted in favour of a particular discourse.
Free your mind brother- and see the situation in Xamar from a neutral angel. I am not claiming that it is heaven- neither I am claiming that everything is OK.There are targeted killings (but that happens in NY), There is clear poverty (the us too has poverty), there is injustice, there is tribalism etc
Brother, I was living in the west, got educated and saw everything from a western perspective; Peace, war, poverty, richness were relative units and if it is not western peace, western poverty and western materialism- I thought everything else sucked. But on coming to somalia I realized these are relative units and some somalis are better off leaving in Mogadishu than Toronto, MN, London etc.
May Allah bring peace and harmony to all somalis. Harmony and prosperity would never be gained through negativity. IF OUR EDUCATED/HAVS base and form their thoughts on somalia based on tribalism and a sickening tribal discourse- somalia would for ever be doomed to perish.
