New SYL Press release
President Yusuf Shelling of civilians


The following is an extract from a radio interview 21st March 2007 which the President of TFG, Abdullahi Yusuf, had with the Somali section of the VOA.
v Interviewer: Have you been defeated?
v President Yusuf : Have you ever gone into war?
v Interviewer: Who is fighting then since it is being said that there are two sides involved?
v President Yusuf: I asked you a question. If war occurs, death will happen and one side will either be pushed back or defeated. But we have never been defeated and Inshallah we will never be defeated – we will terminate these men.
v Interviewer: It is being reported the government (TFG) is shelling densely populated areas with heavy artillery, why are you doing so Mr. President?
v President Yusuf: Why shouldn’t we do so, they (the men firing the mortars) are within the civilians – the civilians should expel these men from their areas. If these men leave civilian populated areas then no harm will come to the civilians. We want the civilians to say to them to leave us since they are the trouble makers and not the government. Where ever a single bullet is fired from towards us we would respond and retaliate with artillery shelling regardless who is in there.
v Interviewer: Even if there are civilians there you will still shell it?
v President Yusuf: We will shell it because we don’t want the civilians to be used as human shield. Civilians should evacuate these areas – we have already warned the civilians and told them that there is war in these areas and therefore they should leave these areas until the conflict can be brought to an end.
v Interviewer: Mr. President since you declared that you are a government of reconciliation and safeguarding the civilians, how can that now be possible when you are now saying that you will burn everyone.
v President Yusuf: The conflicted is being induced by one side, and those carrying it out will be fought with - if they hide within the civilian population then there will be civilian casualties. You should ask them (the opposing side) these kind of questions, why don’t they step outside the populated areas and come out to the open and fight against the government.


The above extracts are very alarming to say the least; however they confirm the fear that many had, that the current TFG under President Yusuf is not a reconciliation government and above all is on the path to cause destruction and mayhem. It is destined to root out the hope and desire of the Somali people which was never to return to the situations and factors that were the catalyst to the civil war of 1990’s.
If anything the above extracts prove that the current TFG and their backers the occupying Ethiopian forces shell with heavy artillery densely civilian populated areas regardless of the excuse they give. It is no longer a claim made by those opposing the TFG, you have heard it straight from the horse mouth.
Finally we the New SYL first would like to bring to the attention of the International Community the impending human genocide in particularly Mogadishu and southern Somalia unless they take urgent steps to avert the ongoing danger and looming disaster. And secondly we hold this and many other warning statements made by us and other groups as a record and reference to hold against the current insignificant International Community if as expected, God forbid, and the resulting human disaster occurs. Phrases such as ‘we were not aware’ or ‘we did not envisage’ would be insufficient excuses to erase responsibility.

Sincerely, Mr. Awale Ali Kullane ,
Leader of the New SYL,

Question first: who is this guy pretending to be the leader of the new SYL?



Back to CY-->v President Yusuf: We will shell it because we don’t want the civilians to be used as human shield. Civilians should evacuate these areas – we have already warned the civilians and told them that there is war in these areas and therefore they should leave these areas until the conflict can be brought to an end


Unbelievable !! quote->"We will shell it because we don’t want the civilians to be used as human shield."
Can anybody lay hold of the sheer madness behind that statement.
In other words wuxu ina leeyahay : " If they hide within the civilian population , we will kill all the civies so that they{ insurgents} cannot hide anywhere anymore .
Bismillahi Raxmaani Raaxiim , war ma kaas oo kale ayay ummadda leeyihin madaxweyne ha idiin noqdo

Bro, Ina baxaroow: Whats with the comment ? I know this guy very well.

We differ on our political philosophies & are still friends.

[Ina Baxar]

Abdiwahab: could your people not find one man who is willing to liquidate Afbijo? I mean, one trained and deadly snipper to take out this old timer before he brings more deaths and miseries on your people in Mogadishu.

Afbijo must be stopped at all cost.

I think the content is hideous and outrages inaadeer regardless who is transmitting the news.

This old man needs some PR training.

[AbdiWahab252]

Ina Baxar,

We disagreed on our platforms: he wanted a "Somaliweyn" one and I was advocating for a Hawiyist one.

hence, New SYL versus UHC.



LordDiplock;

Bro, he will get his just like the last Majerten President who died at the hands of another Harti.

Where was the operation by the Ogaden to make life for Majeretens in Kenya difficult ? Why can't u use your jajuusnimo skills against Afbiijo's supporters

[Ina Baxar]

War dee inadeer waxba ku ma haysto new SYL iyo ninkan soo qoray .

saaxib things have changed in Kenya since our favourite man in charge- president Moi's demise and the rise of Kikuyus in power, I dont think we can do anything significant to Mjs, heck, we couldn't kick out Sheikhashs from our areas whilst their cousins in Ogaden were fighting our people. The days of deporting Reer Somalis (like Hartis, Hawiyes) are over...
