Mogadishu kids don’t need playgrounds. Somali children in Mogadishu need a safe city. They should be able to go to school and get online without grooming gangs hunting them. Reer Mogadishu deserves better leadership a president who protects them instead of pushing them out. Hawyie clan Get rid of the tribal mentality that handed power to greedy criminals who are literally trafficking your kids.

Orwell said the most dangerous thing is not guns. It is when people start changing the meaning of words so they can change how you think. That warning is hitting different right now. In Yemen, muwalad was never a nice word. It was used for kids of Yemeni fathers and African mothers, a lot of them from African lines, people who got treated as less Yemeni for generations. No full belonging. No full citizenship. Just the label. Now some people are trying to clean the word up and dump it on Somalia. Suddenly it became half Somali half Arab, like that is what it always meant. Most of them were never Somali. Ethiopia, Eritrea, Kenya are right there. Somalia is just the easiest target because it is the weakest link in the Horn and the history is easier to rewrite online because Somalis are busy with each other than to watch out for their interests. This is not hate. It is just noticing the pattern. Look at these new Banaadir pages, accounts and videos. A lot of them are run by people who don’t even come from that history. They are changing names, mixing stories, and acting like this new version was always the truth. That is how it starts. First the word. Then the memory. Then they tell you who you are.

قصة زواج حليمة الصومالية ب كونغولي: بدأت قصتها بتعارف عبر الإنترنت مواقع التواصل الاجتماعية (سناب شات)مع رجل كونغولي، قدّم نفسه في البداية بصورة الرجل المتدين، وكان يتحدث معها عن الالتزام بالدين والصلاة، بل وظهر لها وكأنه شيخ وناصح ديني.مع مرور الوقت، بدأ بإرسال الهدايا الثمينة والأموال إليها وإلى أهلها، وكانت المبالغ تصل إلى نحو 500 دولار شهريًا. ومع استمرار هذه المعاملة، اكتسب ثقتها وثقة أسرتها، حتى وافقت في النهاية على الزواج منه والسفر إلى بلده الكونغو.لكن بعد وصولها إلى بلده، تغيّر كل شيء وظهرت حقيقة الرجل التي لم تكن تعرفها. اختفت الوعود والهدايا والأموال، وبدأ يطالبها بالخروج إلى العمل لتسديد المصاريف و الهدايا التي كان ينفقها عليها قبل الزواج.كانت تتوقع أن يتحمل زوجها مسؤولية البيت كما اعتادت أن ترى في الزواج الصومالي، لكنها فوجئت به يقول لها إن الحياة الزوجية عنده تقوم على نظام 50/50، وأن عليها أن تعمل وتدفع نصف المصاريف.ولم يتوقف الأمر عند ذلك، بل بدأ يضربها ويستخدم العنف لإجبارها على الخروج للعمل، وأرسلها إلى أعمال شاقة لم تكن مستعدة لها.وفي أحد الأيام، وبعد أن تعرضت للضرب شديدا منه، تمكنت من الهرب والوصول إلى حي يسكنه عدد من التجار و عاملين الصوماليين في الكونغو. وهناك قابلها شاب صومالي، أعطاها مفتاح منزله وترك لها المكان حتى تتمكن من الاختباء والتعافي من آثار الضرب.بعد ذلك، اجتمع بها عدد من الصوماليين وحاولوا مساعدتها، وأخبروها أن وضعها القانوني صعب لأنها في بلد زوجها، وأن القوانين قد لا تكون في صالحها. لذلك طلبت منهم مساعدتها في العودة إلى الصومال، وهو ما قاموا به بالفعل.واليوم، أصبحت هذه الفتاة تحكي قصتها للصوماليات، ليس لتخويفهن من الزواج أو من التعارف، وإنما لتحذرهن من الوقوع في الفخ نفسه: لا تثقي في شخص اجنبي لمجرد أنه يتحدث باسم الدين، ولا تجعلي الهدايا والأموال تغطي على حقيقة شخصيته. تحققي جيدًا من الشخص الاجنبي وعائلته وبلده قبل اتخاذ قرار الزواج والسفر معه إلى بلد آخر.

Forget the headlines and the chaos for a second. In 1984, Somali model Iman just opened her home to You magazine and said, “Come, let me show you something real.” No glamour, no pose; just her, in something comfy, sitting cross legged, making Somali tea the way it’s been made for generations. The spices hit the milk, the smell fills the room, she pours it high so it foams just right… and for those few quiet pages, everything feels gentle and right. That is it. That’s the moment. 🫖💛

Somalis in Sweden 🇸🇪 Grab a blank ballot and write “Volt” for the national, regional & municipal elections on September 13th. Let’s learn from the mistakes of Somali Americans and stay united. Don’t fall for the hate and division pushed by foolish SL separatists who are willing to burn down their own house to roast a pig. They thought the fire would only hurt others, but eventually, it reached them too. 🔥🇸🇴

أشك أصلًا في أن صالح المتحدث ان يكون صومالي، على اغلب المقطع يكون عبارة مجرد تمثيلية أُعدّت مسبقًا لإضحاك الجمهور على حساب صورة الصوماليين. أولًا، الصوماليون لا يعيشون في لبنان بأعداد تُذكر، كما أن لبنان ليس من الوجهات التي يقصدونها عادة. ثانيًا، يبدو أن ما طرحه الكوميدي ليس سوى إسقاط نفسي؛ إذ انه وصف الصوماليين بما هو موجود في المجتمعات العربية الأخرى.والحقيقة أن أغلب من يتحدث بهذه الثقة مثل الكوميدي لم يعش يومًا بين الصوماليين، ولا يعرف ثقافتهم أو طريقة تفكيرهم. فالشاب الصومالي، تاريخيًا، من أقل الشباب اختلاطًا في القارة الإفريقية، رغم أن الصومال كانت لقرون مركزًا للتجارة البحرية يربط بين إفريقيا وآسيا وشبه الجزيرة العربية، وكان الصوماليون يسافرون ويتعاملون مع شعوب وثقافات مختلفة دون أن يتخلوا عن خصوصيتهم الاجتماعية. وحتى اليوم، وبعد عقود من استقرار الجاليات الصومالية في دول إسكندنافيا، لا تزال نسبة كبيرة منهم تفضل الزواج من أبناء وبنات مجتمعها، ليس لعدم وجود خيارات، وإنما لأن ذلك نابع من قناعاتهم وثقافتهم.لذلك، لا تحاولوا تصدير نظريات مثل تحسين النسل وكأنها تنطبق على جميع الشعوب. قد تعكس هذه الأفكار واقع المجتمعات العربية لكنها لا تمثل المجتمع الصومالي. أما محاولة إلصاقها بالصوماليين، فلا تكشف شيئًا عنهم، بقدر ما تكشف عن حجم الإسقاط النفسي وإطلاق الأحكام على مجتمع لا تعرفونه إلا من الخيال أو من مشاهد تمثيلية.

The joke of century, abiy ahmed the new comer to Horn of Africa is calling Somalis the native of east Africa who has whole tectonic by their name Somali Plate ( which is a tectonic plate covering East Africa, Madagascar, and surrounding oceanic crust.) refugees. What a joke! Small reminder, Somalis are one of the oldest native groups in East Africa. They have been living on that land for thousands of years, with their history deeply connected to the region long before modern countries or borders were drawn. While Abiy Ahmed is Oromo, and the Oromo people moved into the central and northern areas of Ethiopia during the 16th and 17th centuries after Somalis were already well established in the Horn.

The nature really loves a good surprise: Salma, a Somali woman, and her Norwegian husband just had the sweetest little baby with blonde hair and bright blue eyes! Everyone is amazed, but it makes total sense Salma happens to carry hidden recessive genes for those features (you know, the kind that can stay tucked away for generations). Her husband, being Norwegian, has plenty of those genes too. When both of them passed the right ones to their baby, boom those light traits popped up. It is pretty rare and totally unexpected, but that’s the magic of genetics.

Imagine this Somalis, a guy from Libya a country in civil war for decades and divided to two sides, one side is controlled by government and other side by warlord Haftar sponsored by the UAE had decided to pack his bags and jet off to Somalia for tourism. Listen up folks, this guy is on mission but for whom? This is the question. Small reminder Libya has serious issues with ISIS and two years in Puntland state Somalia, we had to fight foreign terrorists from North Africa countries like Tunisia and Morocco.

A Somali woman recalls her life under Siad Barre’s rule with a quiet ache in her voice. “He called us the flowers of the nation,” she says. In the 1970s and early 1980s, that name meant something. Schools opened their doors to girls, women drove their motorcycles & cars, taught classes, wore trousers without fear of stones or whispers. Barre’s speeches crackled over the radio, promising equality, and for a moment the promise felt real. She learned to read in a classroom built by the state. She marched in literacy brigades, chalk dust on her sleeves, teaching nomad wives to spell their own names. When the national theater staged plays, she sat in the front row, clapping for heroines who looked like her. The government gave her a job in schools, offices & factories, the pay was small, but the pride was large. “We were petals,” she says, “not yet crushed.” Then came 1991. The regime collapsed, and the men who toppled it carried new banners: clan, gun. The flowers were trampled first. Warlords shut the public schools, hospitals burned the books, told women to cover and stay silent. The same streets where she once walked unveiled now echoed with militia boots. Neighbors who had cheered Barre’s downfall turned on each other and on her. A neighbour looted her house, a childhood friend denounced her for (Western ways). The factories & schools & offices became a barracks, her uniform, a shroud. She fled to her village with her children, crossing roads littered with the bodies of yesterday’s comrades. Today, she says Flowers of the nation turned to weeds of nation. she still flinches at the word equality. The men who came after Barre did not merely erase his name, they salted the earth where his promises had bloomed.

Somalis after 1991 turned into short sighted local guys who can’t connect the dots or think long term. Our politics stop at the next village. We trade and move goods across Africa, yet somehow stay completely detached from African politics as if those problems will never reach us. We forget we have 10 million Somalis in Ethiopia and another 7 million in Kenya. Recently Niger reopened a 20 year old file. They are talking about repatriating the Arab Mahamid community from Diffa region back to their original country Chad. At the same time, Fulani pastoralists are fleeing Nigeria because of insecurity and local conflicts. Huge numbers of herders and their livestock are moving into Cameroon, Chad, Niger, and Central African Republic. Those countries will keep pushing them until they hit Sudan the Sahel countries see Sudan as the closest place to the Arabian Peninsula they supposedly came from. And we all know the Gulf countries will never take them. That is why we are suddenly seeing these videos trying to invent fake connections between them and us Somalis, pushing for resettlement in Somalia. Most Somalis don’t even know these same groups were behind Boko Haram in Nigeria and Niger, and form the bulk of the Rapid Support Forces in Sudan the ones who started the civil war in Sudan. Hemedti himself, the RSF leader, comes from these groups. The war began because he was trying to settle them and ethnically cleanse real Sudanese people. Now that they have lost war in Sudan and are being kicked out of the Sahel, they are looking for new places to regroup. Remember guys that Hemedti and his RSF forces are currently living in Kenya and Ethiopia. Those two countries wouldn’t allow Muslim military groups to settle in their countries for long periods. They will push them towards Somalia. Somalis wake up, we already saw foreign terrorists who were joining ISIS in Puntland ‘s mountains and joining alshabab in southern Somalia. Thus, be careful Somalis don’t fall for their fake friendship and brotherhood talk. That’s exactly how they were settled in Sudan in the 70s.

اضحك مع ابى احمد الرئيس وزراء اثيوبيا: قال ابى احمد فى احدث مقابلة تلفزيونية إنه يريد أن يصبح جميع أفراد الشعب الاثيوبي مليارديرات، لأن ذلك سيؤدي إلى مليارات المعاملات المالية، فتزداد الإيرادات الضريبية، وتصبح الحكومة ثرية أيضاً. منطق يشبه إجابة طالب في المرحلة الثانوية يعتقد أن حل جميع المشاكل الاقتصادية هو أن يصبح الجميع مليارديراً بضغطة زر. لو كانت إدارة الاقتصاد بهذه البساطة، لما بقيت أي دولة في العالم تعاني من الفقر أو الديون. يبدو أنها أمنيات أكثر منها خطة اقتصادية.

You know the old saying: “A wounded lion is more dangerous than a healthy one.” After somaliland big defeat in Goojacade, Sool in 2023 and several other losses over the past three years, Somaliland has realized they cannot win a military fight against the unionist forces in Sool (north west Somalia) So now they have switched tactics. They are setting traps and plotting against Somali people both inside Somalia and around the world especially in Mogadishu and other major cities like lasanod. They are working with countries & right wing that are against Somalia to turn international opinion against the Somalis. Inside Somalia, they are doing the same thing. Since their defeat in Sool, Mogadishu has become much safer. Al Shabaab has also lost a lot of its power there because many of its top leaders are from Somaliland. Now, Somalilanders are stirring up trouble in Mogadishu. They are using money to bribe half Isaaq/ Hawiye, Darood, and Dir youth in order words youth from issaq mothers to create violence and fights between peaceful communities like we saw in sanaag and sool. Stories like public harassment of girl in stadium which happened in Mogadishu last week, the perpetrators were paid to do that crime in public which was part of their propaganda against Somalia and to further promote their case in western world as being the good Somalis. All Somalis both inside the country and in the diaspora need to stay alert and watch out for these plots and traps.

Somalis, it is time to boycott Ethiopian Airlines: Somali referee Omar Artan has been stranded for 12 hours at Addis Ababa Bole International Airport for unknown reasons, according to multiple sources. Artan had been scheduled to officiate the UEFA Super Cup match on August 12 in Austria. How many more times will we accept insults and bad treatment from them just to save a few dollars? There are Kenyan, Turkish, Qatari and other airlines operating inside Somalia. Why keep giving our money to a country that openly hates Somalia and Somali people? Boycott them.
