Strong words from US embassy in Somalia: FMS leaders must stay in Mogadishu until an election agreement is reached. Failure is not an option.

[Waaqmasho]

For you slow folks around here. Both and Deni and Madoobe are on house arrest in Mogadishu. This message comes hours after Haramacad took control of the airport. No one is coming in or out. Once that has been taken care of the international community tells their prisoners they'll be cooped up in Xalane until they sign all the remaining agreements. AMISOM is nowhere to be seen. Xalane is now surrounded by Somali forces. They walked into Xalane on their own time in search of some kind of assistance. Balse horaa waxaa loo yidhi, "cadaanka Iska ilaali" lol

Ninki soo joog laga waayo soo jiifaa laga helaa

you could hear the fear in Deni's voice. Tonight will definitely be a sleepless night. This guy was scared of them all the way from garowe and was talking about how they need to be gotten rid of and investigated. Now the harmacad he claimed are cold, heartless killers without mercy have surrounded him, and he would came face-to-face with them tomorrow.

 

[libaac]

Deni my security is under threat, I will not attend tomorrow's meeting between FMS and FGS

All the puntites who were flaunting pictures of 'soldiers' are real quiet now kkk. Deni could've acted maturely and avoided this whole shitshow but what can we expect from such people

Somali as a demonym is shared by an ethnic group across five different states. It is as ridiculous to claim ownership of that description as any one Arab state claiming ownership of the demonym "Arab".

A Somali from Djibouti is a Djiboutian.
A Somali from Somaliland is a Somalilander.
A Somali from Ethiopia is an Ethiopian.
A Somali from Kenya is Kenyan.

A Somali from Somalia is thus Somalian.

The demonym for someone from Somalia has always been Somali. This matter is an established fact. There is no rule that prevents a country from using a demonym that is also an ethnonym.

You're being disingenuous. This is not a discussion about the existence of the word "Somalian" but what the demonym of Somalia is. A citizen of Somalia has always been referred to as a Somali. Even our latest passport is emblazoned with the word. We leave the ungainly identifiers to the people of Somaliland.

Additionally, your definition is a neologism that is coincidentally absent in the Cambridge, Oxford, and Merriam-Webster dictionaries—which only supports my earlier claims.

Y’all need to chill. No one is a prisoner, they came freely they can leave freely. If Deni or Madoobe want to leave it's up to them. Let them be the spoilers and take responsibility for it.

Somalian, do you even know what neologism means?

 

[OffTheDome]

Somali = a particular ethnic group, can come from various countries.

Somalian = from Somalia.

 

[Xanibacal bin Barqa]

waar ya illahay yaqaan ,
Ok you win , we are SOMALIANS ee bal na dhaafa nimanyow

No i won't chill. They are prisoners and it's not up to them. When it was up to them, they failed.

 

[MT Foxtrot]

I concede this word is older than I thought.

Do you concede that the historic and current demonym of Somalia is "Somali"?

 

[Jiron]

I understand this might not be the best outcome we were looking for but we should put our ego aside and look at this as an opportunity to be on the same page. I hope our leaders set aside their differences and finally do what’s best for the country

 

[TabK]

No.

You may have been justified in using "Somali" pre civil war, this is because the name of the union state was:

- "Somali" Republic - Jamhuuriyadda "Soomaaliyeed" (1960-1969)

And

- "Somali" Democratic Republic - Jamhuuriyadda Dimuqraadiga "Soomaaliyeed"

In both instances, use of "Somali" would be justified due to the official name of the state explicitly employing such verbiage.

Even in Somali, the all encompassing term "Soomaaliyeed" is used, the Somali language equivalent to "Somali".

During that period, use of "Somali" would have been justified.

This changes when Somaliland declared its independence, and what remained of the Somali Republic changed names to:

Federal Government of "Somalia" - Dowladda Federaalka "Soomaaliya".

Neither "Somali" nor "Soomaaliyeed" used, instead, you've reverted to the colonial "Somalia" verbiage.

From that point onwards, citizens of that administration automatically became "Somalians".

 

[MT Foxtrot]

From that point onwards, citizens of that administration automatically became "Somalians".

Do you have a source for this? I just checked the provisional constitution and there is no mention of the term "Somalian". To the contrary, article 8 explicitly refers to citizens of Federal Republic of Somalia as "Somali".

 

[Som]

We are somali. We shouldn't take orders from the yankees or anyone else.
The politicians in Xamar need to find a compromise for the elections bot because the American said so but because the somali people need a stable governement.
that's it.

Awoowe biden is now responsible for the security of the meeting alongside amisom.
No one(including cheeseboy) is going in with their soldiers into the meeting.



<<This is asshole spent 4 years building up a militia, only to go back where was elected being guarded by fufus and cadaans.

 

[Jaale]

No i won't chill. They are prisoners and it's not up to them. When it was up to them, they failed.

Who are they prisoners to, you?. So much hubris.
