Editorial
The Inadequate Transitional Charter, paper presented
to the 2007 Somali Studies Association Conference

In 7 official public documents, not to
mention the highly secret documents, not
even once, not even one word, on the WISHES AND WELFARE of the Somali population.
Like his predecessor, the mediocre Kofi Annan, Ban ki Moon was not
elected for his qualities, but as a result of the corrupt method of
geographic distribution, where the United Colonialist Nations (UCN)
exchange favors. These documents show that Ban ki Moon is
interested more in preserving the interests of UCN in the region.
He talks and acts as if Somalia is no man's land.

African extra-ordinary rendition - another name for 18th century

constitute a painful reminder of the practices of the Ethiopian slave
traders from the south of the country, across Ethiopia and to the Red
Sea.
Ali Mahdi
charged with the 1991 massacre of 98 Galgalle civilians, mostly seniors,
women, and children, at the Mohamed Ali Ahmed
school in Mogadishu. The fleeing civilians were captured in the Lower
Shebelle, concentrated at the school and then fired at from all four
sides. Their blood can still be seen on the walls of the school. How
can such a monster be the chairman of a Reconciliation Conference?
Give
Gedi and Yusuf one more year, and Mogadishu, once the most brilliant of all the city states of East
Africa, will be reduced to a cemetery. Already 100,000 have fled
the city, helpless under the trees and sun, as their children die.
Only the Somali population know the arrogance and lust for genocide of these
dangerous individuals. There is very little hope that the displaced will
ever come back to Mogadishu, reminding the Somali population of a
similar prediction made by Charles Gullain in 1854.
April 1, 2007, Mogadishu, Somalia
Our condolences to the families of the
over 40,000 Somalis massacred by the Ethiopian invaders and their
supporters in Mogadishu in the past four days. The enemies of the Somali population have raised the level of the
confrontation. The very existence of the Somali nation throughout
the Horn of Africa is threatened. The forces of colonialism are
back in Somalia and the road ahead is certainly difficult and tortuous,
and more genocides will certainly follow. At this critical
juncture, it is also important to remember that the independence which
some of us spoiled was obtained with the hard work of a population that
rejected clanism and called for Somali Weyn. In front of the victims of this genocide,
may we draw the necessary lessons from this massacre.
