Witnesses said police tried to stop the explosives-laden car when it detonated.

"The car was trying to go through the checkpoint and one man came out of it," Baidoa resident Fowzi Abdi Noor said by telephone soon after leaving the scene.

"The police told him to stop, and then the car exploded."

He said he could see four charred bodies in the car believed to be carrying the suicide bomber.

A senior police officer told Reuters seven people had died in the attack and four were wounded.

"We tried to stop it but it exploded immediately," he said.

The incident occurred after Somalia's first known suicide bombing targeted President Abdullahi Yusuf in Baidoa in September. Yusuf blamed al Qaeda for that attack, which killed five people including his brother outside parliament in the town 150 miles from the capital, Mogadishu.

His government is involved in a standoff with Mogadishu-based Islamists, who took a swathe of south Somalia in June. Diplomats and others fear Somalia is on the verge of all-out war, with Horn of Africa neighbors Ethiopia and Eritrea said to be backing the government and Islamists respectively.

"MY BABY IS BLEEDING"

Raha Sahal was driving to Baidoa with her two-year-old son.

"As soon as we tried to move out of the customs checkpoint, the car behind us exploded," she told Reuters by telephone, her voice cracking with emotion. "I don't know what is wrong with my baby. He is bleeding from his ears."

She said she saw several badly burned bodies lying on the road between the wrecked vehicles behind, but was too distressed to say exactly how many. An old woman traveling in her car lost an eye in the blast, Sahal said.

A nurse at Baidoa hospital said four wounded were admitted."

@ Cawar

True that Hawiye had 16 years to rule, but how do you explain hawiye maggots like Gedi, Qeybdiid, Qanyare, Sudi, who are all now part of the TFG?

Me think, your argument that the UIC=USC, all the while Qeybdiid, the father of USC/SNA, Caydiids first lituenent, who openly boasts of turning Kismayo in to a blood bath in 1991 for daarood, is laughable to say the least!

Explain to me why it is OK for former USC members, known killers of daarood are recieved with such warmth in Baydhabo & in P'land, while your ilk you scream "UIC=USC"

The thing about Ali Gheedi is that he will help me out more financially if he seizes power.

Muslimman, don't even try to reason with them. They have clan concerns.

I'd say that they probably packed the car with explosives and left it there with a timer, lol...skinnies are to chicken to do such a thing, they love life more than anything.

Abdi,

I know why the UIC pissed you off: no more isbaaro revenues coming in after the UIC dismantled them all, but what about others?

Cawar,

I know why you itch everytime you see the red cimaamad, want me to say it?

Demure · Post by **Demure** » Thu Nov 30, 2006 1:29 pm

Cawar, I didn't respond because there was nothing to say. You are right you never said what my supposed qabiil was but many times insinuates that I was Murusade.

muslim-man... there are new isbaaros in Xamar controlled by the UIC. They also get revenues from the Port & Airport.

Plus, how come u never speak about the UIC isbaaros ? The so called "check point stations"

Not mention, why are the Airport & Port revenues going only to 1 clan's pockets ?
