Mogadishu, Somalia (HOL) - A demonstration organized by the people displaced in the war in Mogadishu who currently live in make shift houses between Mogadishu and Afgoye city took place yesterday in support of the decision to remove the Mayor of Mogadishu Mr. Mohamed Omar Habeb (Mohamed Dhere) from his post.
 
Some of the demonstrators, most of whom were women and children, told the media that they strongly support the decision to remove Mohamed Dhere from his post as Mayor of Mogadishu.
 
The demonstrators blame Mohamed Dhere for being responsible for their displacement from their home in Mogadishu.
 
Some of the demonstrators said that they plan to return to their homes now since Mohamed Dhere is no longer the city’s Mayor.
 
It is noteworthy that in the past demonstrations were held in support of people appointed to positions. This may be the first time people are demonstrating in support of someone being removed from a position.

 Every member of Parliament in Mogadishu gets a salary paid mostly by U.S. and EU funds," one Somaliland official told us. "And every one of them is a killer. If you kill enough people, you are called a warlord and you get invited to conferences. Meanwhile, I was elected by thousands of votes in a free election, but the international community does not consider us a country. They should be rewarding democracy, not killing."

 Calm down Neutrality, Mohamed Dheere's sacking is not final yet. He might be re-instated, rumour is Yusuf is not happy with the decree.  
neutrality @ 7/31/2008 7:33 AM EST
 Maxamed Dheere, the illiterate petty criminal who just happened to be shoved into the mayoral hotseat of Mogadishu was simply doing what comes naturally to him. plunder and terror. To the demonstrating folks, i wish it could all go away, but it wont change a thing. The Thugs who put him in his post will re-place him with another one of his kind. Ive just heard that his cousin has been appointed new Mayor. If this is true, what a joke. The sacked vile man is now a scapegoat for crimes being commited every other day in this wretched city..This is the sort of ridicule that we Somalis have put ourselves in, lest we blame the Amhara scavengers who just saw this window of opportunity to good to miss. On the other hand, the holier-than-thou,born again nationalists,remember one thing, your claim is no better..Its plain and simple, this forum is a never ending debate between two WRONGS trying to establish which wrong is worse than the other. Give it a rest guys..that includes you, Araweello,Miss Armchair Warrior Queen, 2008.

 The beloved warlords who have facilitated many illegal enterprises are now the scapegoats of an era that has created wealth and sustenance for many. This happened after the warlords committed in establishing (only to be forced by the world) peace and governance that seemed to end the good times in our capital, and of course, this is the demise of their admiration which resulted the former supporters to support the current group who seems to promise more mayhem to come in hopes of maintaining the old habits.

 Sompeace,
Please level with us and desist these bogus charges.  For once answer my questions, please. How was it possible for Mogadishu to develop and arm warlords exponentially compared to the rest of the nation? Mogadishu sought an economic expansion under the leadership of the warlords at the time when the rest of nation was at ruins, therefore did that leadership facilitate the expansion, and the creation of financial huts?  How is it possible for growth to exist in a place run by terrible warlords, and the ordinary people to carry on their daily business, apart being shut by a common thug not affiliated with the warlords?  Wasn’t the money earned from Isbaro distributed back to the clans of the warlords-Robin Hood factor?
shanta @ 7/30/2008 7:38 PM EST
 Dr.Ali,
Thank you for your history lesson in Islam. My doubts are such that you have become intoxicated with a history of nearly 1000 years ago, and the infancy of the Islamic religion at a particular period when the existence of Islam was not well known on this planet. Fast forward to the 21 century, I still don’t buy this redemption business and the creation of Islamic state in Somalia. I would rather live in the Somalia, a state of Islam, rather than the Islamic State of Somalia.  
somalipeace10 @ 7/30/2008 6:34 PM EST
 There is one thing that the displaced people and the Somali in general need to know that sacking one warlords from an arsenal of warlords will not change the situation. Warlords MOhamed Dhere is a criminal warlords but his warlord mentors are still around and the old man he called "ciyaal suuq" is still around, so if you want to demonstrate , do it against the occupation that is directly and indirectly responsible for their displacement.

As usual do not try to distort the real picture of the 20 odd years of warlord crimes.The fact is that TFG warlords are one ones who have been keeping Somalia hostage, walking out or refusing the outcome of every negotiations, killing people, destroying our country.Thus all these heinous crimes took place under the supervision of the TFG warlords that you day and night support. WE will not allow you to distort the facts, so do not try.

 So al-qasis = Ogaden, it makes all sense.

 Adamjama,

People are doing their best but media is not reporting it. Many of these families sent their off spring the Jihad raging across Somalia and may Allah reward them khair.

For shanta, you don't know history of muslims. 18 years kulahaa. Alqudus was under occupation over 100 years until Salaxuddiin awaken muslim comunities region by region. The end game was defeating salibiyiinta. History teach us if you have correct caqiidah you will be the winner regardless of time table or set backs you go through. For such reason, Amhara lovers and their masters has no Stamina for long protracted war. That is what Somali liberators are doing in effective way.

 Al-qasis,
What kinds of nonsense are preaching these days? Do you honestly believe those 18 years of mayhem under your supervision, Somalis were nationalistic? Or this newly found sense of nationalism came to into effect after Ethiopians were spotted in Via Roma?  Perhaps it’s the fundamental nomadic belief that confuses your perception of reality and forces you to accept the notion that; some parts of Somalia is tolerable for a brother to terminate another brother, as longs as no external entity is involved in the termination business.

first majority of somalians and you don't go together
if THE ONLY enemy of oure people and oure nation and oure
country does't give you nationalism that proves again
and agian HOW QUDHMIS you badly are.
you have been advocating for them to take over oure land
but it seems youre sick hope is falling faster than rain drop
SO it must be clear to you by NOW daba DHIIB IS ONLY ACCEPTED
IN GAROWE ! gooooooooooood luck to you
shanta @ 7/30/2008 12:50 PM EST
 The sense of nationalism on which both of you are depending is an illusion. If the past 20 years the Somali people haven’t demonstrated that ability or attained a sense of unity which would have fostered an environment of trust, respect and progress- would the Ethiopian invasion produce such a thing? If it didn’t happen before, it will not happen now. Majority of Somalia understands the reality, and that reality is unique in every part of Somalia, and may differ from region to region.
kormar @ 7/30/2008 12:26 PM EST
 peoble of ceelasha have finaly get their wish and that is first step .
secont is to get rid of  those other worlord like qaybdiid and abdullahi yusuf  prime minister cadde is what somalia needs my allah help you for the work that you doing for the somalis .
thank you  
adamjama @ 7/30/2008 11:46 AM EST
 I have heard Mogadishu residents demonstrating about somebody getting sacked & other useless issues before, I have seen Puntland people demonstrating about soaring prices & inflation, and finally I have seen Hargeysa people demonstrating about a well drilling rig moved from one city to another; my question is, are there any Somalis with an ounce of common sense left in Somalia? How about the occupation of every Somali region in different degrees? How about the illegal governments in every capital of these Ethiopian created enclaves? How about the thousands of women & children slaughtered with impunity & the 2.5 million that were displaced by Ethiopian indiscriminate shelling of heavily populated areas? If and when the dust settles we will have our work cut out for us & I don't know where we should start. Entire generations are gone in terms of morality & nationalism but their shells are still there fighting for the wrong cause such as loots & power that isn't there. Allow sahal umuuraha.
Sahalsiidi @ 7/30/2008 11:34 AM EST
 People of Ceelasha Biyaha are demostrating as usual. Timir laf aa ku jirta.
fiqicigaal @ 7/30/2008 11:05 AM EST
 This is another episode of the ongoing fiasco in the camps of the incompetent and illegal TFG though i welcome the saking of a taurent warlord who has blood on his hands . I hope the people of Mogadisho will demonstrate the withdrawal of Ethiopian troops with their puppet TFG stooges soon Insha Allah .
