Great Mr.Bashir sheekh
every one know very well about bashir,he is one of the leading somali writers and a talented schooler. those of you whom are insulting him are not far form the small somali trible sestivity, but what so ever you say about Goth will never ever damage him.if you like bashir's biography please refer where he is from and were he learned.

Bashir Goth clear-eyed analysis of the somalia situation is laudable. To the chagrin of many, the insurgent activities that were supposed to follow the Ethiopian intervention don't seem to be at the level hoped for. As soon as Ethiopia withdraws in the coming days and sooner the AU troops deploy, the better the chances of stabilization in Somalia. Indeed, a huge strategic blow to Eritrean designs in the Horn Africa

Most of the inarticulate naysayers above , who are trying to degrade and to defile the ultimate correct analysis of a brilliant man, Goth , are amaraic ex-nafxannyas, the hoodlums of Ethiopia origin who envy and fear the upcoming brotherhood of Ethiopians lead by PM Melis, and somali people lead by PM Gedi and president Yusuf . Gaallas and amraics of Ethiopia are people of renoun for their endless and meaningless verbosity , wifey-like talkatives, who are now MASQUERADIND AS SOMALI PATRIOTS. How sarcastic do they want to be ? But, we know them from afar, because , like their coward Eritreen mentors today , one word from their respective filthy mouths amply reveals their inner making, a coward identity that defines them through-and-through.
Longlive Melise, Yusyf , Gedi , Somaliland , Puntland , Somalia at large , and Ethiopia at large - with all its constituent autonomous states ; all in all, the harbingers of East African Union.
Death to narrow nationalism.

Ps,
We have to tell these worthless creatures to Stay out of Somaliland or Somali affair in general. PM Melise have good relation with all Somali political groups, except those whom he helped eliminate recently - thanks to Allah for that . And from hereon, PM Melise is the only man in the world who Somalis can trust as a fair arbiter , and with whom all Somali politicians can work with.
InshaAllah!

ALL my heartfelt thanks to the great author and columnist Mr.Bashir Goth.He is a patriotic man who doesn't allow harm for his country and people.For the untalented southerners,telling the truth is a guilt.
Bashir is not the one who brought Ethiopians to Somalia.It is the mercenaries like Geedi and Yeey who bought their fellow citizens for the sake of their interests.
May Allah support the truth.Down to propaganda

The insurgency against Abdullahi Yusuf and the other traitors has just started. Tonight they holed up in the devastated Villa Somalia, when the brave young freedon fighters waged a well orchistrated attack against them. Ethiopia must withdraw the poor forces now before they become bugged down in a quagmire they can not win. When we win, and remove Abdullahi Yusuf and the other Ethiopian lackeys, we would like to negotiate with our Somaliland brothers for the amicable separation of the two brotherly countries. That is the only realistic way out of this mess and mayhem. Peaceful cooperation between the two countries will be the best option out of this impasse.

Congratualations to my Somaliland people for the huge demonstrations they conducted through our Somaliland, when they came out on Tuesday, 16th of January. Once again you showed your seriousness regarding our independence and soverignity. We are with you all the way. Again you expressed that our independence is non negotiable, permanent and irreversable. AS Somalilanders we already determined our destiny, and nobody else has the ability to reverse that decision, which gave so much blood. You expressed again your readiness to give more blood to perserve that independence. We also wish good luck for our Somali brothers.

Hello my fellow Somali and Ethiopians. I do not think we Ethiopians should be blamed for this action by our dictator leader Meles Zenawi. We still think you are our neighbouring friends. But on the contrary, Meles Zenawi is attacking your country to settle our riots in Ethiopia to take him down. Please don't give us a bad picture. We care for you. I am very dissapointed by the invasion as you Somalis are, anyways, Meles has signed himself a real dictator by doing this. I hope you agree with me. I wish peace for all, and that's what every other person believe in. Peace.
Your loving Ethiopian brother,
Selam Yihun Fekadu

The Socialist tigre government will be out not only from Somalia but from our occupied land of Amara. All tigrees will be deported to Mekele and ending up of eating Anbeta.

READING YOUR TRUE STORY HERE I CAN SEE THAT YOU BRING PEACE IN THE HORN OF AFRICA WITH YOUR LOVELY LEADER ISAYAS.HE IS FROM THE BEGINING ON, IS ANTI WAR AND PEACE LOVING GUY(AS A STUDENT OF CHE UND CASTRO).
HOWEVER THIS DEMOCRAT LEADER HAS DONE SO MANY THINGS FOR ERITREA AND EVEN FOR THE WHOLE EAST AFRICA.AND ALSO IF THERE IS A CHANCE TO HIM,THE TRUE CIVILISATION STARTS FROM ERITREA.ISAYAS HAS NO PRISON AT ALL IN ERITREA,DIDN'T TORTURED ANYBODY AND DIDN'T EXPELL ETHIOPIANS ERITREAN ORIGIN BECAUSE ISAYAS DOESNT HATE THE COLOR OF SOMBODIES EYE.ISAYAS WHO IS AT POWER BY SUCCSESIVE DEMOCRATIC ELECTIONS HAS NO PRISNORS AT ALL.ALL MOST ALL ERITREANS STAY BESIDE HIM.HE KILLED NOBODY.HE DOESNT INTERFER IN SOMALIAS POLITIK AND HE DOESNT SENT ANY SOLDIER THERE.AND BY THIS THE THOUSANDS OF ERITREAN LIFE IS SAVED.AND BECAUSE OF THIS ISAYAS'S GOVERNMENT IS A VERY VERY STABLE.NOW ERITREANS WHO ARE WRITING SENSIBLE THINGS AND TRUE THINGS ABOUT ERITREA AND ISAYAS, THEY WILL BE NEVER FORGOTTEN.AND THE TRUTH IS THAT ISAYAS STAYS AT HIS POWER FOREVER.AFRICANS ARE VERY PROUD AND HAPPY OF LEADERS LIKE ISAYAS DEVOTING THEIR WHOLE TIME TO SERVE THEIR PEOPLE. SO IT IS NOT BRAGGING IF SOME ONE SAYS THAT ISAYAS IS,A TRUE MESSIAH FOR AFRICA, WHO IS FIGHTING FOR REAL DEMOCRACY, FIGHTING AGAINST A DICTATOR, FIGHTING A RACISM, AND AN ABSOLUTE COMPATIBLE LEADER LIVING WITH TRUTH.

HELLO HOW ARE YOU??? I'M OK!!!!

Bashir Goth is sell out and enemy of Somalia.

Dear Bashir and The Post Staff,

If what has been described by the reporter proves to be true, may be the Horn of Africa might be spared of another round of human loss.

Contrary to your description of the situation in Somalia, we hear there is concerted effort by the Meles and his regieme to commit atrocities againist the Oromo refugees who have setteled in the country running away from systematic repression unleasehed aginist them during successive occupation of the Ethiopian Dicatators.

From the era of General Waaqo Gutu (an Oromo) to present, Oromos fled to Somalia, kenya, the Sudan and Djibouti to save their lives from the brutal dictators. Meles Zenawi is just the newest symbol of tyranny, who jumped up on the "ant terrorst campagin" bandwagon.

He went to Somalia for two purposes. One to defelect focus from his killing machine at home, and secon to hunt down and eliminate, the oromos and others who oppose the occupation, opperation and butchering of their respectivie societies.

Please educate yourself about the issues necessitating the invession of Somalia prior to crwonning the butcher of Africa, Georgetownisque. Somalia was always moslem country, what changed today.

How does Bashir keep his job as a Post Global columnist when many of the commenters know more about the situation and write better than him?

Reading many of your fiction stories here won't bring in the Horn of Africa, peace and people of this region together. Meles Zenawi has a reputation of starting wars using lies and paid agents of the west to create havoc and misery to the peace loving people in the neighborhood. However, this dictator has done more harm than good than Mengistu. Meles has imprisoned, tortured and expelled Ethiopians of Eritreans origin from Ethiopia between 1998 to 2000. This is one of the shame of Ethiopian history to expell over 80,000 Ethiopians who have Eritrean origin, just because Meles Zenawi did not like the color of their eyes. Again, after losing that war with Eritrea. This brutal dictator lost elections and it is well known fact that he imprisoned over 30,000 Ethiopians who supported the opposition party. This minority rejected regime has killed unknown number of innocent Ethiopians. Now because he doesn't like the IUC in Somalia, his troops have crossed the border and invaded the poor Somalia land. Somalians and Ethiopians are dying everyday in Somalia, thanks for his bosses. However, at the end Meles Zenawi will lose on his bet to tame the people of Somalia. Now, to the Ethiopians who are coming here and writing nonesense, sooner or later Meles Zenawi and his government will pay the same price what Haileselasie and Mengistu got in return to their arrogant and corrupt way of ruling. Africans are sick and tired of leaders like Meles Zenawi abusing their office and power. So do not brag Meles is another Idi Amin, a racist and rude leader that is always living in a lie. Thank you!

The thausends of Somalies, call them UIC or Alquaida or whatever are butchered by the Tegrean minority (TPLF) that are currently killing Ethiopians. And the leader of this Mafia group is Meles Zenawi (known as Bush's Condom) who does anything for the sake of money. He recently got paid by Bush for killing these innocent Somalies. For money leave alone killing innocent Somali nomads, they will sell their mothers.

IS THAT BECAUSE PAKISTAN,MOROCO, EGYPT,AFGHANISTAN,IRAK ARE CHRISTIANS, THEY FIGHT EXTRIMISTS,THEY KILL WHAT YOU CALL MUSLIMS(IN PRACTISE NOT??)ISAYAS HELPS UIC IS THAT BECAUSE HE IS MUSLIM? NO IT'S NOT.
THAT IS FOR THEIR POLITICAL POWER.IF IT WAS
NOT SO,WHY NOT THE SO CALLED MUSLIM COUNTRIES,PEACFULLY AND GRADUALLY GIVE THEIR POWER TO ALQUAIDA?????THEN THE STRUGLLE WAS SO SIMPLE.THE SAME THING HAPPENS FOR OROMOS(IN ETHIOPIA)THE MASS IS WORKING WITH THE GOVENMENT,ONLY THE FULLS ARE GOING TO THE FRONT,AND THEY ARE KILLED BY THEIR OWN PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE BEST BENFITS BY SHARING THE POWER. "RELIGION" IS ONLY THE NAME OF THE GAME---CALLED "POWER"(BE IT CHRISTIAN OR MUSLIM POWER) BASTA!!!!

patrick,

Regarding the butcher of Addis Ababa, I think you have an outdated information. That was sixteen years ago. We have now another butcher of Addis Ababa, and his name is Meles Zenawi. And in case you don't know who Meles Zenawi is, he is the guy at the head of the army that routed the UIC. Meles Zenawi, butchered 193 young protester in Addis Ababa(that is only what is official), maimed and tortured thousands and imprisoned tens of thousands(just for excercising their democratic right)

Ethiopia has showed the whole world how terrorism could be easly defeated in its Chistams lightening victory which left the media in the West and the so called analysts in the dark. We need to learn from this actual and effective experience.

This Ethiopian victory against the UIC (not against Somalia: this must be clear for everybody at this moment as it is now becoming clearer since the Ethiopian army is begining to withdrow in a responsible manner) indicates if we are pushed by a valid and justified reason, there is no reason we could not win against all evils.

This is a golden opportunity for Somlia which all Somlias and the International community at large should not miss. Somlia is now one of the states of the 53 states in Africa after it has failed for the last 16 years. Any failure now may cost Somlis another decade and half or even longer. They have to stick to it and thank their true neighbour Ethiopia. By the way the notion "created" by the western media that Ethiopia is a Christian country is unfounded. Ethiopia belongs equally to both the christian and the Muslim faith. There is no place in this planet where Muslims and christians live in hormony better than in Ethiopia. For Ethiopians, religion is a private issue but Ethiopia is their commond land. One has also to know that there are more muslims in Ethiopia than all muslims in eeast Africa (all Somlias, Djibouti, Kenian and Eritrean muslims all together).

Hence the western media has to take care from using unfounded and inflamatory words. There is no animosity between Ethiopians and Somlais of what soever. If there were conflicts, it was between dictatorial regimes such as the Butcher of Addis Abeba: Mengistu and Said Barie.

Mr Goth is beyond clan. He has an intelectual insight his comments are matured that is what Somalia needs. The people of Somalia deserve to leave in peace they should start focusing on rebuilding.TFG should be inclusive and should reach the ousted UIC moderate members if they want lasting peace.

It is very sad that all that happend to somalia is in favour of Ethiopian brutal governmet. As it is already mentioned above Ethiopian is not there for the benefit Somale people but to make sure that Oromo refugees can'nt leave in peace after they have been evicted from their homeland.

Ethiopia took acvantage of our division and it will continue to do so if we are not united. we should stop to have a clan based mentality and see the big picture. I hope Somalia will continue to exsiste as a nation. Mr goth be Somali and defend the nation.

Somalia has been invaded by a dictator led Ethiopia and Mr. Goth has no problem with that. I think Mr. Goth has no sense of Somali nationalism and i don't blame him as there is no such thing as a somali. There are only clan identities in Somalia, and as long as his clan has not been affectd by the invasion, he is all for it.

It will be interesting how Mr. Goth will react as soon as Ethiopian backed TNG soldiers head for his beloved tribal homeland-Somaliland.

Poor Somalis-they are such a hopeless people that maybe we Ethiopians did them a favor by invading you. So Mr. Goth might be right after all in his positive outlook of the invasion.

Dear Panelist's View,

What makes you think that the insurgency against Ethiopian Occupied army was an isolated incident? I start thing that such people who echo same voice others do are talking machines such us yourself. I think you are talking robot than your own independent thinking to figure out what is going around.
I believe the insurgencies against the occupant Ethiopian armies are not isolated incident but firm resistance to be wide spread and up front resistance, say no to colonialism.

Secondly, Ethiopia was not there to route out any terrorists but to find there own opposition against there government under the banner of war on terrorism. Therefore, the dying hard Ethiopian government is now in rush that his opposition fighters are not in Somali but the poor refugee long time escaped the Ethiopian regime brutality, including his government. Therefore his military armies are rushed soon to hit road for the home sooner or later. The real fight to begin with opposition and rebel he scared of in there own soil not Somalia.

Speaking of Somali people, let the Somali people sort out there own difference and think like human being than throwing there country in the hands of colony and anarchy. For that matter, if no brain to think about future Somalia, there would be the road map to tyrant leader just like Mr. Crime minister of Meles Zenawi, another tyrant leader in Somalia in the making, in the horn of Africa.

God save the world from greed gangsters across the globes who betray humanity for blind ego.

WASHINGTON POST SHOULD SACK THIS STUPID, USELESS, NASTY MAN WHO HATES ISLAM AND WHO IS A TRIBALIST. IF YOU ARE ISSAQ CLAN AND YOU HATE OTHERS BECAUSE OF TRIBE GO TO HELL GOTH.
ETHIOPIA CAME TO SOMALIA BECAUSE IT IS CHRISTIAN AND IT DOES NOT WANT POWERFUL ISLAMIC GOVERNMENT. WAR ON TERROR WAR ON ISLAM.

Bashir you sound like foot soldier of the Ethiopian appointed leader Yusuf.

Once again, Bashir Goth, you hit the nail on the head. Despite the dooms day analysis of some shallow western think-tanks, the situation in Somalia seems to be on the right track. The international community should not waste this great opportunity to do the right thing in Somalia.

No one is reporting the real motive of the Ethiopian government. It is not to safeguard the national/security interests of Ethiopia. Rather, it is to distract Ethiopians, the US, and the rest of the international community from the real issue, the usurpation of power by force after an election defeat. They have ruled for sixteen years and want to rule for at least that much longr. Alex, Los Angeles.
