Reer Jubba, come in!

If the TFG fails, the only possible enemy will be Ceyr and they'll get man-handled by Abgaal, Sacad, and Saleban, so Mudug is secure.

The rest, is going to be interesting. Marexaan aren't immortal, Luq, you've lost the city, got it back, lost it, got it back--up and down since 1999---so don't count your lucky stars.

I'll agree on one thing, FEW Harti care about Jubbada Hoose. We had a conference in Rochester, MN, and less than 40 men showed up. Marexaan will win the South based on devotion, not man power or weapons. I heard the Marexaan in Ohio are forcing the ones in Kismayo to stay; and if they leave, their folks back home will cut aid. That is some extreme devotion. ....but I give Marexaan a round of applause for being so organized overseas.

Paidmonk, absolutely no arguement there. Marehan care about Kismayo more than MJ, due to the fact that its our only port. Secondly almost all Marehan left central Somalia right now, so basically 100% of Marehan live past the Jubba River (Gedo). Its like MJ's fighting for Las Qorey. Its realistic to see them get it, because of the proximity. Lakin thats funny about the whole Rochester thing. Also your the only MJ I've ever seen thats so devoted to Kismayo Wallahi.

Dude the only thing I hate about giving the leadership of Kismaayo to Marexan is the simple fact that they cannot make use of it. First of all if you guys control the city, what do you get out of it? You've controlled it for 8 years, what have you achieved? Has Gedo benefited from Kismayo? Personally I believe we can build/develop Kismayo much more with the city under our leadership/authority.

Kismayo Inshallah will be ours..

ZachAbdul, you are totally right. It seems Harti and Isaaq are the only people in Somalia capable of do-it-yourself work, everyone else is looking for handouts or just staring at the prize like idiots.

sida aad la socotan waxa dawlada loo qaybsaday qaab qabiil ku dhisan
mareexaan ahaan qaybta aan ku lenaahay qaybta daarood ahan noogu soo aada waa 25%

, I gotta admit man: Your a funny dude. Lakin I think the whole 'what have you done the past 8 years you controlled it' talk, is just a lame attempt to discredit Sade. For one thing, anybody who has any clue what about the civil war, knows that the Civil war happend in the SOUTH. Bossaso, Garowe etc. didn't see the rigors of the civil war. Marehan living exclusively in the south, felt the brunt of it. In addition like the Issaq, like Majerten like everybody else we had our own brutal Marehan civil war (Itixad Vs SNF), and it took a while to build from that. So in a nutshell you had Marehan Vs Muslim, Marehan civil war, the Morgan battles and then the ICU, so its not like we had a long sustainable peace that you guys had. You guys lived in a region (Bari) that was untouched in the civil war, and had one clan live in it. So it was much easier for you guys to orginize yourselves and get things done. Ironically we were well on our way in the summer of '06 but then these Khamis masked USC came back and it set us back a little bit. Lakin now that all our foes are vanquished forever; (Kablalax, ICU, USC etc.), we can really start getting some inititives done. We just opened up a university, primary schools are being built and Marehans in the diaspora are stepping up. Bardhere, Beledhawo, have boomed big time compared to prior to the civil war. Luq used to be a gem, but was destroyed by the Xabashis during the war there. Give us some time, and you'll see.
