		<description>Long live Somaliland, Somaliland was created by its people and shed their blood for it. Nobody of UN created any country, but countries  joined UN after bitter struggles with many loss of lives in one way or other. This is what Somaliland is up to, it will wait for however long it may take to get its recognition...</description>

		<description>Salaam all, 
I am from Sanaag, Somalia. In fact, I am from the Warsangeli clan, one of the oldest sultanates in Africa. And as of today, our neighbours the Isaqs are strugling within themselves to deal with their own dictator that they created. Typical of misguided young Somalis today who thankfully are spreading lies and mischief on cyperspace using words instead of bullets, but I hope that our non-Somali readers here will do us all a favour and avoid making the same mistakes committed by many well intentioned friends- take sides. Although, it does not matter really weather the world recognizes this &quot;Somaliland&quot; or not, what matters is what we do on the ground.

I am old and wise enough to know that Great Britin and the west can not recognize this entity with the current border without our consent, because we have our own treaty with the British, and we were the only clan in Somali history who never raised a foreign flag on it&#039;s territory. Nevertheless, we always prayed and worked to peacfully live side by side with our brethren the Isaqs hoping for a better day for all Somalis. Their own elders know it and politicians as well. The only time the Isaqs tried to invade our land in the early 90&#039;s they were badly defeated, and in return most of our citizens left Erigavo, a once diverse city to the criminal elements of the SNM.
Albiet, this is changing with time, recently many Warangelis are going back to their city after the departure of the SNM extremists, and slowly the city is going back to it&#039;s decent history of coexistance.
For those who are young or non-Somalis either read history from objective sources or be patient and wise- when this thread started four years ago Yasmin was attacked by the well greased machine of Isaq separatists, but with patience and   with a sharp observing mind- you can than God that the world did not help in creating another African clan-based dictatorship.

Regard,
A Nobel Somali</description>

		<description>Incontro del Comitato Mondiale Pan-Africanesimo alla Universita di Firenze  del 22 -sett/09

Info: pmanzelli@gmail.com . 
A mio avviso il problema chiave della Diaspora Africana, (a cui il COMOPA puo dare un contributo idealmente risolutivo) risiede nel superamento dell&#039;  isolamento della comunita scientifica e culturale Africana , nel contesto della  Scienza e della Cultura  mondiale. 

Le comunita diasporiche come la FAT hanno pertanto la possibilita di contribuire a superare tale isolamento della comunita scientifica e culturale Africana, agendo come organizzazione capace di congiungere  la Intellettualita &#039; scientifica e culturale Africana , con quella  mondiale tramite un ampio confronto interuniversitario , come quello che speriamo di portare e termine con successo il 22/SETT/09 c/o la Universita di Firenze .

Per tale occasione andrebbero contattati per renderli partecipi gli Studenti Africani presenti nelle Universita di Firenze ed altrove , in nodo che possano partecipare attivamente alla organizzazione dell&#039; evento del COMOPA a Firenze, sapendo che la questione che iniziamo a trattare , rappresenta uno dei nodi piu importanti del loro futuro Infatti essi potranno dare un attivo contributo ad  una nuova espressione della Diaspora Africana , necessario per valorizzare la propria cultura di origine ,cosi&#039;  che necessita di un cambiamento globale della scienza e della cultura venga ricondotto al valore essenziale di un  &quot;nuovo rinascimento della umanita&quot; che si identifica nella formazione di complesse comunita&#039;  transnazionali,  capaci di condivisione e rispetto delle diverse forme di conoscenza sulla base di una profonda  identita&#039; comune dell&#039; Uomo.</description>

		<description>Hi, I am from Burco, Somaliland and my father (god bless his soul) fort in the civil war and was killed fighting for Somaliland. We all know about each clan, regional etc disputes. However I believe that Somaliland should continue as it is, where most Somalis enjoy peace and security, and Somalia should not interfere with Somaliland issues. If so, Somaliland should provide any help necessary to their brothers in order o bring them the peace and security they enjoy without going to clan politics. Somaliland has taken in and shown support to refugees from Somalia and I recognise and acknowledge their support (I am a witness). But other help is needed in terms of bring about peace or even a platform for peace. 

My main point is that once Somaliland and Somalia have reached a peaceful position and some sort of democratic level, with security under control, then some sort of reconciliation can begin, merge the states of the horn of Africa together, this would include the orgedan region which is occupied by Ethiopia. 

I am tired of this infighting between brothers and sister, who share the same religion, all Sunni, who are all Somalis, who can trace their blood line to their ancestors better than any sophisticated technology which used by westerners, I live in the UK and  hardly any one knows their relatives before their grand parent.


Every country has had their civil war and has worked it out for example, USA, UK, Germany etc.

its time for the great horn of Africa to workout its problems fast and move on to come together under one flag , nation.

I am sick and tired of seeing brother and sister dying for stupid reasons , bring new change and thinking do not take one step forward and two steps back and revert to clan wars, we are stronger united then divided

God bless The Horn of Africa</description>

		<description>before the 1960&#039;s  Somaliland was British. 1960 26 june they became indenpendent from England, the first flag that was made by somalians was at hargeysa. 

yasmiin and the others who  are talking nonnessence let me refresh your mind.  There are five parts that are together known as somalia, these following five parts are: 
Somaliland (British part)
Somali south(Italian part)
Somali Djibouti(France part)
Somali Galbeed(Ethopian part)
Somali ENFD(Kenian part)
The Ethopian and kenians still got there parts and will keep them.

So like you can see somaliland does excist AND queen of England was there when Somaliland became independent if you don&#039;t believe I will pay your flight ticket come to London and embarrese yourself front of the Queen. 

There is no need to hate because we are peacefull and this is written by a girl that is 15 years old and knows her history and believes that it does excist but it is not on the map not yet</description>
