and since when is Addis Ababa the ancient capital?? for goodness sake..stop this nonsense..seriously some people never cease to amaze me ..but then again from your username i doubt you're even Somali.
why was this thread moved? I thought this forum is the place to discuss ' Somali Politics- Siyaasada Soomaalida'..how does AddisAbaba and its slums and its glitzy buildings fit into all this ? why not deleted this thread instead?
When you have a sense of nationalism the sky is limit....Over 70 million people live in Ethiopia, Christian, Jews, and Muslims live side by side here. And in case your wonder about their tribal affiliation there are too many to count and get this each has a distinct spoken language.
To the contrary, Somalia is just 9 million and to give you a hint of how big their country is, Somalia has the longest coast of any African nation yet it ain't even big enough for them. The case of Somalia is truly a sad case, here you have people who all speak Somali, who are of the same faith, Muslim and yet the hate they have for one another dwarfs that between Israel and Palestine. Somalis sense of nationalism just goes as far as waving ones flag but beyond that Qabiilism is king here; there are only four tribes, each out to get the others blood. The world has come twice to save Somalis from killing each other, in 1993 and now given the current AU troops there.
"a telecommunications expert in Mogadishu who began receiving the dreaded "Private Number" calls after bidding for a government contract. He asked that his full name not be used.
"They say, 'The bullet is coming' or 'Kiss your children goodbye tonight,'" Ahmed said. "Then they hang up."
"I don't recognize my people anymore," said Hawa Abdi, who runs the displaced people's camp outside of Mogadishu that was attacked by group of thugs. "I feel Somalia is lost. There is no Somalia. It is just a name."
Trained in Ukraine as a nurse, Abdi, a Mogadishu native, has managed her sprawling camp for 17 years. She squinted out over its sea of huts, domed like Native American wickiups but fabricated from scraps of trash. Even the trash looked old, tired. The camp is growing. Refugees from Mogadishu are arriving at the rate of 50 or 60 a day. Some kept on walking, nobody knew where.
Abdi put her hands gently on her head, as if her head hurt.
"You can only stay frightened for so long," she finally said. "And I am really tired of it."
Walking back to her office, she said she couldn't stay in Mogadishu anymore."
