Former Somali Defense Minister Warns Al-Shabab

[zingii]

Garbo-Gedo:
If that’s the case why would they want war and destruction on their region?
Why wage war on a peaceful region knowing your people live there?
It just doesn’t add up.

What's wrong with u man, they never started war, all what they did was peacefully establishing a maxkamad in Baardheere to start with and apply the sharia law to whole region. The region was peaceful and today the region is still peaceful as long that those in doolow start war and destruction.

These wadaado in the region are mareexaan, and anyone who call themselves mareexaan who kills them cannot call themselves mareexaan and should face severe consequence. I for one would have fought if one of my cousins was with the wadaado and was killed by Barre's supporters. I just dont support the fact that someone would justify killing or waging war against fellow marehan simply because they are wadado. The blood of marehan is precious and shouldn't be shed easily.

If they were peaceful or still are peaceful why is barre in dolow?

Ps, Abtigaa Allah u naxariisto. Aamiin

Aamin, iyo dhamaan inta muslim ahoo dhimatay.

Brother what I believe is, Barre dont want a inclusive marehan unity where marehan wadado (alshabab) has a say and where the minority can also make their voice heard. U may ask me why u saying that? well if he wants an inclusive marehan unity where everyone is seen important member of the community, why dont he give a piece a chance a sit face to face with his cousins and compromise their different ideas for the sake of our long-term existence. I believe in Dollow because he dnt want peace and unity, and I think what he is up to is what Omar Haji been up to in 1990s which is coming with some Ethiopians,killing and chasing marehan wadado and then the ethiopian will turn to Barre and he'll escape and then we start killing each other ourselves jst like when the Ethiopian turned against Omar Haji back in 1990s.

We should value every single Marehan life, and we should compromise for the sake of saving our elders, professionals, businessmen and cousins' lives and our future.

May father (AUN) passed away in 2008 at the age of 53 and hadn't the opportunity to see himself Gedo as a peaceful and developed region and I dont wish myself to pass away without seeing my region being very successful and I dnt want my grandchildren to be at the state I'm in right now where my people and region isn't making alot of progress.

I understand what you are saying, but the thing is that alshabaab in gedo region are not just marexaan, they might be the majority but they are not alone. If the shabaabs from the other regions go back to what ever they came from there is a chance they can sit face to face and discuss their issues and come to terms with one another.

Dhimashadiisa kow waxaa sabab u ahaa Omar Haji oo amxaaro dalka soo geliyay isagoo ula danlahaa marexaan al-ittixaad ku baa'bi'i, markuu baa'bi'iyayna illaahay wuxuu qadaray in reer xasan ay ka raaxday amxaarti oo isagi iyo masaakiinta uu shalay beenta u sheegay eber laga dhigay.

First of all Allah ha u naxariisto Abtigaa. Secondly, Omar Xaaji massalle and Barre Hiiraale are two different men. You can't blame one man for the actions of another man. I was personally never a fan of Omar Xaaji Massale and I have on many occasions said how I feel about the man here before. As for Barre Hiiraale, the man was illegally kicked out of Kismaayo by these so called marehan wadaado but what was the point of them following him all the way to Gedo? What was the point of them coming to Gedo in the first place and risking the peace in the region by starting unnecessary wars? You say we should learn from our past and if that is what we are to do, should we not kick groups like Al Shabaab who turn brothers against one another out of our regions?

Barre dont want a inclusive marehan unity where marehan wadado (alshabab) has a say and where the minority can also make their voice heard.

I am just curious and I have noticed you wrote the above word twice already but who the fock are the minority? Ma marexaan baa minority leh and who is it that BArre is not allowing to voice their opinions?

I agree with you partially, I agree with u that it was wrong that the Al-shabab lead by Turki invaded Kismaayo.

I think the Al-shabab in gedo are mainly marehan and their leaders in Gedo are Marehan just like the main Al-shabab in Bay and bakool are eylaay and their leader eelaay. So really if there're few individuals from other qabiils within the al-shabab in gedo, they are jst soldiers and the decision of whats gonna happen in Gedo isn't up to them but the marehan al-shabab and other islamist leaders in gedo.

Dadka minority-ka aan ka hadlayo waa dadka la yaso sida reer xasan.

Bro, if Barre Hiraale ignores the minority number of individuals from other qabiil and focus on the Marehan al-shabab ones, I am sure they can come to a good agreement and they can easily kick those others out of our region later on.

[BaasAbuur]

Dadka minority-ka aan ka hadlayo waa dadka la yaso sida reer xasan.

Yaa Reer Xassan yaso? Matter of fact yaa Reer Xassan yasi karo? Don't you know the last governor of Gedo under Siyaad Barre government was reer Xassan? Beel marexaan ka mid ah oo layaso or la yasi karo ma jirto saaxib. Barre Hiiraale qofna ma yaso and as far as I know, that man waa dacad and aad iyo aad baa looga gardaran yahay. It is in the best interest of the region for Al shabaab waxaan isku baxshe na dhaafaan waayo anigu shaqsi ahaan ma u jeedo kheyr ay keeni karaan. As for Hiiraale, I don't support him to wage war in Gedo, I really don't but so far all I have seen more and more gardaro against him by these so called wadaado as if they are attempting to humiliate marexaan by humiliating this man who represented beesha on so many level for so long.

Yaa reer Xassan yaso? I am reer Siyaad and I haven't seen meel reer Xassan lagu yasayo? There was a war between reer Siyaad and reer Xassan waliba reer Cigaal siyaad so there were and maybe are hostilities but neither is reer Xassan a minority nor dad la yaso. Dadku dagaal wuu ka dhaxeeyaa but this is the first in my life I have heard reer Xassan referred to as a minority ama "dad" la yaso. Ma sidaas baa wadaada ku raacsantahay sxb?

[precious_dyme]

Gabro_Gedo, ma adaa lagu yasaa or something you idiot? I have never seen MR is yaseeyso... sug bal MR maba tahid. Your likes never in a million years ma gaari karaan Reer Xassan...

[Warsame101]

Waxaan maqli jiray qolo sheegi jiray, Barre ha ka harro Reer Xasanka ama kalsoonida ka la noqoneyna. Malaha Garbo_Gedo waa groupkas.

Beesha Reer Xasan oo degta from Nageyle to Luuq ayuu minority ku tilmaamay . Such folks do not merit responses tbh.

[Ladane21]

Gabro_Gedo,

Your writing is very contradictory.....You need to go back and check your statements and facts...You either not Marehan or You're Ignorant and need to be schooled. Rer Hasan is one of the biggest groups within Merehan and they're Majority in the South.

As for the topic on hand, Barre and Shabab both made strategic miscalculations and mistakes. We're not here to debate who's right and not, as i won't make any difference...We can't go back and fixed in the past...We gotta move on think a head.

Both Alshabab and Barre should participate and contribute to the suggested conference without pre-conditions. Neither of them should be in leadership position as they fail us before. We need new leadership that are visionaries and can plan for the future and greater Jubaland.

[snoop12]

Garbo_Gedo

you are a big time Sheegato, if Rer Hassan is minority in the south who the hell majority

[CoolPoisons]

who cares about this lil Shegato

his first post diss Bare so focker's one of those Bare neceb people

[Garbo_Gedo]

I dont need u guys to give consent to be marehan cuz both my parents are grandparents are marehan.

And guys I didn't meant to offend reer xasan and u completely lost my point. My point was that some qabiilo used to complain about Barre in for instance in Kismaayo as they felt he was more closer to reer faarax ugaas than to himself.

I dunno alot about qabiil so I must confess I dnt know that much about it.

But anyway, dont get alienated by me just because I have different view, and forgive if I offended anyone, cuz my intention was only to share my views with fellow marehan whom I love to death and wish them the best.
