[Voltage]

Look at Zenewi's beady eyes become shifty when she makes the threat, watch how his beady eyes shift when he hears "unify"

[Thuganomics]

She's talking about Al Shabab yet he hears Somaliland unbelievable the obsession these people have with SL

Obsession :

1. (Psychiatry) A persistent idea(SOMALILAND)or impulse (SOMALILAND) that continually forces its way (SOMALILAND) into consciousness, (SOMALILAND) often associated with anxiety (SOMALILAND) and mental illness (SOMALILAND)

[Kukri]

miskiin Now you hearing Somaliland where they haven't been mentioned

Allah ha kuu sahlo.

Look at Zenewi's beady eyes become shifty when she makes the threat, watch how his beady eyes shift when he hears "unify"

SomaliLand Is not of American iNterest Al-shabaab and Piracy is ...

[Voltage]

Honestly, your English teachers are at fault here.

[Voltage]

Now all those who have not yet joined this effort to unify Somalia (and then she goes on to talk directly about Somaliland's political grievances used as a foundation for leaving)...."sitting on the sidelines" (Al Shabaab is sitting on the sidelines?)...join their fellow Somalis moving past the struggles of the past

Seriously, you just cannot be that dumb to not get what her diplomatic language means.

Honestly, your English teachers are at fault here.

Actually it's just that you're putting into practice the phrase "Hope springs eternal" with a hint of self delusion

Semeyer, I am not going to have an obtuse argument with you about basic translation of the Secretary of State's statement.

[Kukri]

Now all those who have not yet joined this effort to unify Somalia (and then she goes on to talk directly about Somaliland's political grievances used as a foundation for leaving)...."sitting on the sidelines" (Al Shabaab is sitting on the sidelines?)

Seriously, you just cannot be that dumb to not get what her diplomatic language means.

Dumb is the one that though with bantu lies great green pastures.

[Thuganomics]

Kukri Voltage is a very rational guy ma ogtahey horta.When he realizes he's wrong he'll put his hands up
Laakiin there are two issues that when he's confronted wih,he'll throw raionality out the window
1:MSB
2:SL

Semeyer is a prodigiously dumb troll who struggles with English language comprehension. I would pay no mind to his statements.

Clinton is a great woman, may she become President in 2016.

[SultanOrder]

Reer Somaliland, do you think a diplomat with a prepared statement having to do with complex geopolitical issues does not weigh her words? Clinton has already expressed the US position of having a unified Somalia, and Somaliland refusing to participate would come under as sitting on the sidelines.

[Cirwaaq]

It might be a bitter pill to swollow but stimulating Somaliland to sit with the TFG is not at all bad for Somaliland. Somaliland will be able to address infront of the TFG with international observers their political trajectory since 1991 and their statehood as it was in 1960.

Silence of Somaliland and avoiding conferences that are held in plain view of the international community is counter productive to somalilands cause.

Any dialogue will be there to address the 1960 union where two equal states united and any discussions of the failed union will yield the inequality of the UNION.

Is TFG willing to accept 50/50 power sharing?

OR

a Referundum to dissolve the 1960 UNION?

It is a loose loose situation in my view.

What would be more dignified today and that which will create a lasting impression for all somalis to follow us is if the recognition of Somaliland and the disolution of the 1960 UNION comes from Moqadishu...

The 1960 UNION came from Hargeysa... it is an opportunity for Moqadishu's leaders to take the lead and prevent another 20years conflict or even worse to be the party that is left divorced and rejected in the internation arena.
