Ethiopian Troops Start Withdrawing From Somalia

Ethiopian troops in Tanker military vehicles depart their Mogadishu's residential base today.  At least 18 military vehicles carrying Ethiopian troops were seen leaving Mogadishu taking the road from Mogadishu to Baidoa.
 
It is not clear their destination, or how many of them still remain in Mogadishu as the number of Ethiopian troops left Mogadishu is unknown. However, sources indicate two different scenarios for their departure from the Capital city of Somalia.
 
Some sources claim the Ethiopian army's departure of Mogadishu is a first step to Ethiopia's withdrawal from Somalia, a scenario hinted by Melez Zenawi earlier last week.  Other sources contradict that the Tigres are simply moving their infantry to new bases for better security of their army.  One should note there is still a large number of Ethiopian troops in Mogadishu.
 
It was not long ago that the Transitional Federal Government and the leaders of the liberation army agreed to sign a peace deal which dictates the Ethiopian troops to leave residential areas as whole.  It is possible this may be why the Tigre army is vacating their bases in Mogadishu.

6 Civilians Killed By Former Mogadishu Mayor's Militia In Mogadishu, Somalia

On August 30, 2008, members of the TFG militia, specifically those under the command of the former Mogadishu Mayor, Mohammed Dhere, executed 6 civilians in the Ba'ad market which is the second largest market in Mogadishu. Mayor
 
As the holly month of Ramadan approaches, residents of Mogadishu crowd the markets to gather food in preparation for the holly month.  Unfortunately, the gathering of many unarmed civilians provides the TFG Militia with many targets including women, children and important businessmen. 
 
This is not the first incident where TFG militia armed with automatic weapons entered markets at the heart of the city and murdered shoppers and businessmen in broad daylight.  In addition to killing random victims, the TFG militia also rob stores and detain whoever they want. 
 
In Mogadishu, it is normal never to hear from those the TFG militia, including copy-Ethiopia, detain unless they pay tariffs.  Most often though, the TFG detain businessmen whom they think may own properties and demand money for their release.  Killing civilians is a way of announcing their seriousness and that they mean business.
 
Currently, the Ba'ad market is closed as the shop keepers are worried they may be targeted by the TFG militia raiding the market.

Somali TFG Police Clash with Ethiopian Trained TFG militia: Reported on Somchat.com

 
The Somali Transitional Government Police in deadly clashes with the TFG's Copy Ethiopia army in Afgoye in the Lower Shabelle region. Residents of Afgoye report that major fighting is taking place in the heart of the agriculturally rich city coming from both sides of the TFG militias. So far, no casulties have been reported from the hostile areas but are expected to arise as the fighting cools down.

The TFG copy Ethiopia army was trained in Ethiopia for the purpose of one day replacing the Ethiopian army and defending the Transitional Federal Government. So far, they have conducted robberies, murders, rape, and displacements of the Southern Somali populations. Earlier this month, the took part in killing 75 civilians in a refugee camp.

No only are they not favoured by the other groups of the TFG such as the Police, but also the Copy Ethiopia militia are targetted by anti-government and anti-Ethiopia reliberationists such as Al-Shabab and ICU armies. As a result, several hundreds of the original 3000 Copy Ethiopia troops have surrendered to anti-Ethiopian fighters who gave them amnesty after disarming them.

Today's fighting shows how far the Copy Ethiopia are from what the Ethiopians are said to have trained for. Instead of fighting the anti-government force, they cause too distress and fear among the civilians. And now, they are fighting other forces of the government they are supposed to protect by being in a face off with the TFG Police.

Re: Journalists Kidnapped Near Mogadishu

Amanda Lindhout
 
Two freelance journalists one from Alberta, Canada named Amanda Lindhout, age 27, and one from Australia named Nigel has been abducted at gunpoint near the Somali capital of Mogadishu.
 
Amanda's father who lives in Sylvan Lake, Alberta, Canada  told Canadian reporters on Saturday that he was contacted by Foreign Affairs department to inform him of the Kidnapping.
 
According to Global National, a Canwest News Service group,who interviewed Amanda's father by a telephone, said the journalist arrived in Somalia with an Australian friend, the other journalist who was also kidnapped whom the Australian news media calls him only by Nigel.

 
Ms. Lindhout had being on tour through Africa to gather freelance reports which she planned to sell to Canadian broadcasters and a French television network.  Amanda's mission in Somalia was to report on the deteriorating security situtaion as well as the food shortages affecting 2.6 million displaced people.
 
A Somali translator and two bodyguards set off with the journalists on Saturday morning for a location near Elasha, 18 kilometres south of the capital, and it is believed the group was in a vehicle that was stopped by gunmen as it travelled to a refugee camp near Elasha,
Earlier Saturday, Reuters reported that an unnamed Canadian and an Australian reporter had been abducted on their way to a displaced persons camp.

"They left us this morning to visit internally displaced camps on the outskirts of Mogadishu," said Mohamed Ajos, the head of security at Mogadishu's Shamo Hotel, where the pair had been staying. "Now they are nowhere to be found. They were accompanied by a Somali translator and were to visit parts of Lower Shabelle region."
 
The Canadian Foreign Affairs Department in Ottawa issued a travel advisory on July 11 warning all Canadians in Somalia to leave the country indicating that, "there is a high security threat in Somalia. Killings and kidnappings continue to occur in all areas of the country and there have been targeted assassinations of foreigners, including journalists, human rights activists, and humanitarian workers."

    Ethiopia Calls Abdullahi Yusuf and TFG Prime Minister Responible for Somalia's lawlessness

    The Ethiopian Foreign Minister accused the Somali Prisident and the Somali Prime Minister of being responsible for the unrest in Somalia.
     
    Melez Zenawi's Foreign Minister accused the Somali TFG's President and Prime Minister of being behind the civilian displacement and the country's unrest.  He said that the two top heads of the TFG lie to the Zenawi government and to the International community when the claim that anti-government groups are causing the civilian unrest in Somalia.  On the contrary, the Ethiopian minister that that they do not do their responsibilities to the Somali government properly, but rather busy themselves with propaganda to deceive the International donors. 
     
    The minister continued that the two persons have no experience in managing a unity government and that they mostly look out for the their respective relatives and sub-clans.
     
    The Ethiopian minister's accusations arise at a time the TFG President and Prime Minister are in Addis Ababa, the Capital city of EThiopia, as they get rebreifing from their so called boss, Melez Zenawi.  The majority of the Somalis call the TFG a cover-up puppet government that is put together to legitimize the Ethiopian invasion of Somalia.
     
    It was early this week that Abdullahi Yusuf ordered his militia to bombard the biggest market in Somalia, Bakaraha, with heavy artillery including BM shells.  The Bakaraha is located in the heart of Mogadishu housing the majority of capital city's residents.  It is also the heart of the financial district of Somalia.  The TFG militia routinely target Bakaraha to conduct robberies and collect tariffs while they rob banks, money transfer companies, and small Qat shops on a regular basis.
     
    Abdullahi Yusuf is also linked to pirates operating in Puntland region.

    Learn to Download Online Videos From Popular Video Sharing Sites - Youtube, AOL, CNN, All Streamed Media

    How to record streamed music and videos and to your computer?

    [DnldAndRcrdMngr-744163.JPG]Today I will to teach you something new to most of you.  Ok, wait, maybe it is only new to some of you because this is being around for sometime.  But it is still relatively new and that's why those of us who are not Internet savvy or a techie did not figure it out yet.  I am talking about getting the Music and the other Media on the web copied to your computer.  So lets set the objective of this article straight.  After going through this reading, you will know how to save any video from Youtube.  You will also understand the technologies behind the media you will be dealing with.  If you get anything out of this article, let it be that you can save those favorite videos of yours from Youtube and other similar web sites into your computer so you can either store them in a CD or just keep them for any other purpose.

    Introduction to Youtube.

    I will concentrate on the Youtube example, but I will try to show you other examples later if possible, to make it easier for beginners because Youtube is probably the most famous web sites ever, of course after Google web site.  Don't argue on that statement, and of course it is not an important point of the lesson here.  Any ways, the background on Youtube is that it is a video sharing web site.  This means if I upload a video and you get to see that video as well as other millions of users can watch the same video at the same time.  So, it is simply a storage for virtually unlimited number of videos. 

    Until recently, Youtube users only either uploaded videos on Youtube or watched what others had uploaded.  But nowadays, there are numerous ways to also download videos from Youtube with the help of computer programs.

    Using Programs to download Videos

    The best method I discovered so far is to use RealPlayer, which is one of the most popular media players out there in the market.   If you haven't heard the name, then you probably spent the last decade or so in a deserted Island where there is no Internet connection.  No pun intended!

    If you are familiar with RealPlayer, go and download the latest version at the Real Networks web site.  The version I use, which is the only one that will allow streaming media downloading, is v11.03, apparently the latest one.  This is a free program unless you want to buy it for more additional commercial features.

    Once you have downloaded Real Player, you need to install it, then you can start downloading.  Of course I will walk you through the necessary steps to perform the task I mentioned here.  So, sit back and read more.  Now look, I know this article can get lengthy and you may not have time to read it all at once, so I recommend you Add to Favorites,

    1. Click on Favorites

    That is it.

    Somalia at Olympics 2008 Beijing Results Report for Abdinasir Said Ibrahim and Samia Yusuf

    While Abdinasir Said Ibrahim is said to race tomorrow on August 20th, 2008 at 8:55 PM running the 5000m event at Beijin's National Stadium further delaying any hopes of medal contention for the Somalia Team, the final results are in for Samia Yusuf Omar who finished last in the both Round 1 (46th) and Round 1 Heat 5 (8th). 

    On August 18th, unfortunately, Samia's Olympic medal hopes came to an end as she didn't make it to the qualifying rounds.  Samia, though persistently punctual, unfortunately ran approximately 7 seconds slower then the second last runner, as she finished at 32.16 seconds.
     
    Abdinasir Said Ibrahim, the other Somali Olympic medal hopeful is scheduled to participate in the 500m race even on August 20th. 
     
    Very little is known about Abdinasir and Samia as they have very little track experience in International stage.  Also when the focus is on Somalia at all—which is not often in the international media—people remember the power struggle, famine and piracy in the Indian Ocean's Horn of Africa state.  
     
    People are more familiar with Abdi Abdirahman, Somali born who is an American citizen participating the 10000m race event.  Abdirahman attended Tucson High School and Pima Community College in Arizona, became an American citizen 8 years ago in 2000.
     
    Abdirahman first represented the United States at the Athens and Sydney Olympics in the 10,000m last Olympics in 2004. He also finished 15th in this year's 1000m running for the United States.

    Ethiopian army Detain Somali youth in Beledweyne, Hiiraan

    After they massacred Somali civilians last week when they opened fire into crowded refugee camp last week, the Ethiopian troops are back to their capture, torture and behead strategy.  Early this morning on August 17, 2008. they detained tens of Somali civilians, mostly youth, from their homes in Beledweyne in Howlwadag and Hodon communites. 
     
    According to witnesses, the Ethiopians are entering homes and detaining the young then taking them into military vehicles without mentioning why and where they are taken.
     
    The Ethiopian soldiers are doing this in broad day light, despite the fact that part of Beledweyne is controlled by the anti-government ARS fighters, who can attack them any time.
     
    It is not uncommon for the Ethiopian soldiers to conduct their searches in the areas they control in Beledweyne or Mogadishu or other small towns in Somalia.  Very often, they detain the youth and torture them.  Most often, they dispose of the dead bodies out into the streets nearby where they detained the young Somalis.  It is unclear whether the Ethiopian army will do this again or not.  We hope not!
     
    Despite the Atrocities and Massacres they continuesly commit in Somalia, the Ethiopian soldiers are financed and funded by the American government to conduct its Geo-political Agenda in Somalia.  Therefore, the Somali people beleive that only the U.S. can stop them from killing the Somali people, although they are well aware that this will not happen any time soon.

    75 Somali Civilians Masssacred in A Refugee Camp by Ethiopian Army While Somali President is in Ethiopia

    More than 75 people were killed in Somalia on Friday, August 15, 2008, after roadside bomb blasts prompted Somali TFG and Ethiopian troops to open fire on nearby civilians, witnesses said.  Most of the people died when Ethiopian solders shot into traffic and nearby refugee camps.

    While the Ethiopian troops massacre Somali civilians in Arbiska near Mogadishu killing more than 75 of Mogadishu's displaced, the Somali Transitional Federal Government (TFG) President and Prime Minister, along with the head of the TFG Parliament are in Addis-Ababa having a meeting with the man who's behind the killings.  The three of the top TFG group attended the meeting that is held for mediation between the TFG President and the Somali TFG Prime Minister conducted by Melez Zenawi.
     
    Despite yesterday's genocide, the Somali Citizens do not expect the Somali Transitional Federal Government to express any condemnation for the Ethiopian Troops ruthless killings of civilian population in the Mogadishu area, let alone the Top TFG officials currently in Addis Ababa, the Ethiopian capital, to bring up the issue with Melez Zanawi.  It is suspected that Mr. Yusuf and Mr. Nur Cade are fearful of the Ethiopian dictator who once before jailed infamous Somali warlords such as Muse Sude in Ethiopia. 
     
    The former warlord of Puntland and now the President of the TFG is indifferent of the struggles of the southern Somali population, specially those in Mogadishu.  He repeatedly admits that he wants revenge, apparently on the Hawiye clan which dominates the Southern Somalia.  In a poem he wrote which was found on a vehicle he deserted after being ambushed by Alshabab, Abdullhi Yusuf expresses his deepest desires.  He writes that he wants the Mogadishu residents to submit to him, and that he orders mass murders, daily robberies, and other armed savagery acts against the Mogadishu residents, only to have them surrender and submit to his will.  Now that the Ethiopian soldiers are killing unarmed non-combatant Somali civilians, Abdullahi Yusuf will keep quiet and watch the people he seems to hate most die until no one left.
     
    The Somali Transitional Government, as the Somali people are aware of, is a puppet for Melez Zanawi, who is in turn hired by Mr. Bush of the United States Government.  Therefore one can claim that Mr. Bush and his government are in-directly responsible for yesterdays killing of 75 Somali refugees near Mogadishu.
     
    Dr. Abdul-Qasim Salad Hassan, the former president of the TFG, not long ago, admitted that the U.S. government should stop supporting the Ethiopian invasion of Somalia.  He said the American people and the Somali people have neutral friendship and that their friendship can be affected if the invasion of Somali is continued, with the backing of the U.S. Government.

    Fifty Displaced Civilians Killed By Ethiopian and TFG Militia In Somalia, Worst Civilians Casulties in Country History

    Ethiopian and TFG Militia who were at Arbiska, a refuge camp for displaced civilians who ran away from the Ethiopian army shelling, killed more than 50 of the displaced people today in Somalia.  The killed displaced Somalis who are refugees in their own country, were mainly women and children and elders.
     
     
    According to witnesses, The Ethiopian soldiers and TFG Militia detained people after stopping their cars randomly while they drove in Arbiska.  The soldiers then handcuffed the civilians hands on their back and shot them on the spot.  Others were shot while they were in their cars.  Unable to watch the mascare, those who witnessed claim they have never seen such a brutal killings of so many unarmed civilians in one place and called it the worst genocide in Somalia.  To add to the casulties are the unknown number of injured people who are no where near a hospital.  The Ethiopian and TFG militia drove back to Afgoye where they're based.
    Dispite the civil wars and the armed conflicts of the past nearly 18 years, no armed group ever killed this many people at once, in one place.  This savage killings of Somalia's displaced civilians brings forward the International community's indifference of the Somali people's struggle.  Ironically, the U.N. considers Ethiopia peacekeeping force.



    Earlier on August 15, Ethiopian Troops Behead Somali Civilians Near Mogadishu

    The Ethiopian military in Somalia continue to their rampage and terror.  They once again detained unarmed civilians and beheaded them, then put them out on the streets as to make example of them.
     
    The ruthless terrorist acts happened in an area between Afgoye, where the TFG and Ethiopian troops currently control, and Mogadishu.  As witnesses say, the Tigrey army stopped a car full of civilians on Thursday evening then escorted the passengers to an unknown location where they apparently tortured them overnight.  Early Friday morning on August 15, the same passengers were found dead, 8 of them beheaded in a nearby street in between Mogadishu and Afgooye town.
     
    So far, no reports of investigation on the matter and no one from the TFG appeared to be interested to discuss the civilian murders.  Also, there is no official news release from the Ethiopian troops on why they tortured then beheaded the Somali civilians.
     
    This is not the first time the Ethiopian Tigrey men killed and beheaded unarmed Somali civilians.  On May 8th 2008, the Ethiopian troops killed 17 Somali civilians. About two weeks prior to that day, on April 23rd, Ethiopian army slit the throats of 20 Somali clerics in a mosque.  On Sunday July 13, several young men were executed by Ethiopian troops and TFG militia in Mogadishu and its surroundings.
     
    The Ethiopian invasion of Somalia is funded by the Bush government under the cover of fighting terror in East Africa.  Political observers say the U.S. Agenda in Somalia is far more deeper than just plain old war on terror.

    August 15 India's Independence a Contrast to Somali People's Struggle

     
    India's Independence day is August 15.  It is on Friday so I get to go to the Mosque.  After the Mosque on that day, there is going to be a feast in my house.  You see a friend of mine got married several months ago.  His wife and her family, along with his Uncle already held ceremonies for his wedding in Saudi Arabia, where his wife is.  So, he is here studying in Mysore.  So, he decided it is time he got his friends together and hold some sort of du'a, a gathering to mark his wedding.  Anyways this is not about his life, or mine for that matter. Its about Independence!
     
    To be free and independent means to have rights and honor and freedoms to do what you want with yourself.  For the Somali people, freedom means to be free from Ethiopian influence, to be free from warlords, to be free from TFG Militia, and most importantly, to be free from American and other foreign westerners.  For me, it means to have the right to say what I feel about the situation in my beloved home land.
     
    In all honesty, I am not sure what to tell the readers of this blog.  But I know how I feel about the awful situation my people are currently in.  So I write my feeling down so you know about their struggle.
     
    India is celebrating its Independence from the British several decades ago.  Today Indian people are enjoying themselves and the peaceful homes they live in.  Their cities are crowded with celebrations and people are out partying and congratulating themselves as they share sweets and treat themselves good.  You can see them kissing and hugging and sometimes singing Indian songs.  Even the animals are decorated with multicolored dyes.  They makes good wishes for the upcoming year.  The police are out conducting their police work though there isn't much work for them.
     
    Here in Mysore, schools are closed, shops closed, all business life halted.  That is because, every Mysorian is out to celebrate India's Independence.  People are gathering out on the streets and there are several concerts in the city.  No fights, no gun shots, just fire crackers everywhere.
     
    Why is it that they enjoy themselves so much?  Because, the Indian people are free.
     
    Unfortunately, my people are not free!  Therefore, when our Independence came and went unnoticed, it was due to the fact that we cannot call ourselves independent.  The Somali people are invaded, detained in groups and tortured then beheaded.  Others are told to fight against their brothers.  Our Mosques are now enemy basis.  Our historic sites such as the half century old Football Stadium, are also enemy basis.  Our wise elders are hunted daily, important figures are murdered.  There are so many evil deeds that when I start listing them, I can't.  Not because I am weak, but because I weakened with sorrow.
     
    Somalia's Independence is July 1st.  That is when the Europeans colonists gave us back our country.  Now, I think we should either change that date to when the Ethiopians leave, forcefully or otherwise, or have two Independence dates; one for the departure of the Ethiopians, and the other being July 1st.
     
    Either way, the Somali people including the future generations should remember the devilish wrong doings of the Ethiopian government. Our children should be aware of why the enemy invaded us.  They should be told how the enemy got into our country and who brought them to Mogadishu.  Our people should realize that the enemy could never walk our streets if some bad apples did not make deals with the devil.  We should write down the happenings, the wrong decisions and all the struggle our women, children and youth have/had to go through because of those bad apples.  When Somalia is independent and free again, we should celebrate it more than once a year.
     
    I reported yesterday about the Somalia team, specifically Samia, in the 2008 Olympics in Chine this year.  When billions of people throughout the world saw the Somali flag being waved in International stage, what do you think came to their minds?  Did they ask themselves, where is Somalia?  Or Maybe if they already Knew that did they say, are the Somali people enjoying the Olympics? Perhaps they asked if there were people in Somalia watching and supporting their team.  Perhaps there are!
     
    But certainly, the Somali people, specially those in Somalia have no time to enjoy the Olympics this year.  In fact, they weren't able to enjoy it the last time it was held back in 2002.  Reason? They are busy running and hiding away from the invaders who are out to hunt them, and kill them if they find them.  Not like India where the sounds and sites of freedom would make you cry with happiness.  On the contrary, the news coming out of Somalia would make any human being cry with sadness.  The daily shelling of civilian homes, the constant displacement of Somali population, the degrading economy due to instability and to top it all, the restless enemy who have no Interest in peace.
     
    Sometimes it seams, the world don't care about us.  But then, one must ask, if we cared for ourselves, would we be in this situation in the first place?

    Somalia in Olympics 2008: Samia's Father, Uncle and Aunt Killed by Ethiopian Rocket Attacks

    Samia Yusuf Omar is the women's 200m runner representing Somalia in the 2008 Olympics.  Samia recently let the world know, despite its troubles, Somalia is still alive when she walked in Beijing with Somalia's Olympic team as they waved the Blue Back with White star Somali flag.
     
    Unfortunately, Samia's father died in 2006 by Ethiopian shelling in Mogadishu.  He, Samia's Uncle and Aunt were victims on the indiscriminate killings by the Ethiopian soldiers that hold the Mogadishu citizens hostages as they bomb them with heavy artilary in retaliation whenever they have anti-Ethiopian fighters engage them.
     
    Although she was not asked about her father's death, Samia was asked how she survived the constant fighting in Mogadishu while she managed to train for the Olympics.
     
    "Some people ask how I can be doing sport when so many people are being killed or dying from famine and drought, but being in the Olympics is doing something for my country because everyone will support me regardless of their tribal affiliation."

    Somali TFG President Depicts Himself Constitution Friendly

    In a news conference on August 13th held in Mogadishu, the TFG's President spoke out about his differences with his Prime Minister claiming that Mr. Nur has violated the constitution by acting unilaterally when he removed several of his colleagues from their government offices.
     
    When asked why he wants the ex Mayer of Mogadishu to return, the TFG President said he only wants any proposed changes to his government to be done through the rules and regulation of the constitution, not by the will of anyone including the Prime Minister.  Mr. Yusuf added that the Prime Ministers lack of verbal contact with him prior to making the decision inflamed him.
     
    The former warlord of Puntland, Abdullahi Yusuf now the President of the puppet TFG government, has express more disappointment on the naming of the new ministers by the Prime Minister soon after several ministers resigned earlier this month where more than 10 TFG ministers resigned in support of Abdullahi Yusuf.  He called this act unconstitutional.
     
    Mr. Yusuf is known to act unconstitutional himself.  He gets into oil deals with International companies without consulting anyone in the TFG.  For example, he currently owns deals with foreign companies that explore oil in the Puntland region.  When the former Somali Prime Minister, Mr. Gedi, tried to interfere, he was ordered to resign by Ethiopia, and so he did.
     
    Although the constitution that holds together the so called Somali Government, which everyone in Somalia believes is a puppet cover-up government for Ethiopia's Melez Zenawi, is deemed useless since it gets modified to suit the Agenda's of those in higher positions of the weak TFG.
     
    On several occasions, the TFG parliament amended the constitution to make way for Mohammed Dhere, the ex Mayor of Mogadishu, to collect several different tariffs from the citizens of Mogadishu.  No one knows where that money went.

    5 Steps To Make Income And good Money Online On the Internet

    Yes!  If that is what you said when you asked, "Can I make Money Online?"  Then you have already done the first step.
     
    Rule #1. Belief you can
     
    The most important step is understanding that you can earn as much as a full time job would pay you, or even more if you really put an effort to it.  If you have been researching a way to make money online, there are some simple Internet Income Source tips and solutions that you can follow.  But the fact is, you can get income from different programs with a little effort.

    Rule #2 - Positive Attitude

    When you work 9 to 5 for years and years, you are basically brain washed into thinking that there is no other way to earn a living.  If you are still getting paid weekly or biweekly wages,  but know that there is got to be way out of this unfortunate loop you call working life, I feel your pain because I too have been sitting around for years trying to come up with a solution to get away from the daily 9-5 grind, and did.  So you need to change your thought process.  Have positive attitude and get prepare yourself for your day. Take positive action and you can break free from the large pile of financial problems and debts that you are buried beneath.  Pay off those loans you've been dragging for years; student loans, home mortgages etc.

    If you are a beginner at online money making opportunities, or an entrepreneur at heart, but have never taken action to make money online, then you need to start taking first steps towards success by thinking positively about what you can achieve when you put your mind to it.  Basically, you have to have the belief that you can achieve this success online and get started.
     
    Rule #3 - Get a Program or Product you Belief in.
    Everyone that made money online knows they couldn't do it without that something; services, publishing and selling ads, selling programs that teach such as ebooks, etc or that product that everyone else wants and you are so passionate about to sell. To become successful, its a must that you choose a product you love selling.  To make income online, a good income that is, your product must become your Internet income source.  Otherwise, things might become tougher than you imagined.  If you care about the product or service you want to promote or market, you have a better chance of success in making money on the Internet.  Fact is, in the long run, Internet marketing becomes much more fun and easy.
     
    Step #4 - Listen to yourself and Follow your Heart
    If I took to heart every one's opinion about what I do when I first started, I wouldn't be here to tell you about ways to make money online today.  When I started out, my friends would tell me I am wasting my time.  But I knew if I stopped doing what I was doing and listened to their opinion, I would end up just like them.  I would be working 40 hours a week and earn my monthly rent plus coffee.  While that may be good enough for some people, you got to realize that earning less than $5000 a month will basically get you no where.  Most publishers and Internet entrepreneurs know that by isolating your needs and wants from other people's negativity, and setting your priority on what you need  to achieve, you can earn over the $5K mark on a monthly basis. 
     
    Basically, it is important you mold yourself into the society that will support you and motivate you into becoming your own success.  When you keep this in mind, other people's negativity towards your way of earning income, specially your Internet income sources, become your motivation to succeed since you will naturally want to prove to yourself and to them that you are right.  You can make online in a month more than they earn from full time job in a year.
     
     
    Step #5 - Consistency and Dedication
     
    In any successful business, there are people who are dedicated to it and to run it and maintain it on a best efforts basis.  Regardless of the type; whether home based businesses, Online and Internet Business, physical or virtual, you will always need dedication when dealing business.  Dedication means you stick with it!.  Everyone waits for good things despite how long they take before they happen to them.  Basically, don't expect rush of cash in your mailbox overnight.  However, you should expect that it can start slow but drastically increase with time.  People say "an apple a day keeps the doctor away."  This is true in a metaphoric way when it comes to making money online.  The key is consistency and patience.
     
    PS: the original article "5 Steps To Make Income And good Money Online On the Internet was posted on the Internet Income Source tips blog.  which a new site created just for those interested in learning how to do this well.  Check it out by clicking on the link above!
     
     
     

     
    I understand it is not easy to start out as a beginner with online money making programs.  So I will post new topics containing exactly the steps you need to take to succeed in your journey in the following blogs.  That is why I list them here for you so you can bookmark them and come back to them for more lessons.

    Somali President Abdullahi Yusuf to be Disposed.

    The Somali TFG President Abdullahi Yusuf recently met with the the Somali TFG Prime Minister Nur Hasan Husein (Nur Ade) in a secret meeting held at the AMISOM base.  The two top head officials of the Somali Transitional Federal Government (thought to be a puppet for Ethiopian dictator Melez Zenawi) discussed their conflicting stand on political issues in Somalia and the meeting to decide who has the upper hand or final say on deciding the route the puppet government will take.
     
    Recently there has been feuds over decisions made by both of the TFG's top leaders involving the removal of several government ministers from the posts, where former warlord Abdullahi Yusuf reacted negatively to the firing of the ex-Mogadishu Mayor Mohamed Dhere by the Prime Minister.  Sources close to the Nur Ade say the decision to dispose of Mr. Dhere came from outside parties thought to be the U.S. and E.U intervention.
     
    Despite the secret meeting being the first between the President and Prime Minister, no tangible result had come about, except that they disagreed on every mandate they discussed at the meeting.  As a result, they now have more hate for each other than before the meeting.
     
    Abdullahi Yusuf's position is weakened by the lack of support from his commander Melez Zenawi and the Ethiopian army Mr. Gabre who apparently told Mr. Yusuf to stand back and not get involved with the new face of Somali politics.  Apparently, the new face involves reconciliation between the TFG and the Djibuti wing of ARS.
     
    It seems the time for Mr. Yusuf to enjoy in Somali Villa is coming to an end.  It a few months before elections (if they are held at all) are conducted and a new president is elected by the TFG.  Will Mr. Yusuf continue as president or will he move back to Puntland where his the head of state?

    Somali TFG Militia, Bandits of Mogadishu

    The so called "Copy-Ethiopia" TFG Militia recently arrived in Mogadishu and are not disappointing the civilians of the capital city.  While the 3000 strong military were on their way to Mogadishu, the city's citizens screamed with fear as they cried the TFG militia is coming to rob, rape, kill, and displace them resulting many people to flee the city ahead of the arrival of what they said was the devil's army.
     
    The Copy-Ethiopia crew are now doing what they were trained to do.  Ever since they arrived Mogadishu, they started robbing businesses, civilians, and mostly small businessmen who sell Jaat.  They do their evil deeds in daylight not fearing any one's retaliation.  Some people report that the TFG Copy-Ethiopia militia even rob the poor beggars snatching them of the coins they were begging all day.
     
    The Copy-Ethiopia TFG militia was trained in Ethiopia and are in Ethiopian army uniforms.  They were also armed and funded by the Ethiopian government of whom command they're under.  This army arrived in Mogadishu last month and have already caused many civilian casualties and displacements and continue to do so. 
     
    Places such as shops and big markets as well as unarmed civilians including women and children are those mostly targeted by the armed bandits who stop their victims as they walk in small armed groups.  They are regularly seen in Hamar Weyne, Shingani, Shibis, Waaberi and Kaaraan districts which are all mainly under the TFG's control.
     
    On August 4rth, two of the TFG Copy-Ethiopia outlaws were on their job when they were killed in Yaqshid district in Mogadishu.  While performing their daily robbing, other armed group came into contact with them and put an end to their miserable lives.  In fact, their Commissioiner of Yaqshid, Muhudin Hasan Jurus,  later confirmed the death of the two military personal calling it unfortunate.  Unfortunately, the Mogadishu population is tired of their acts and are greatful of their deaths.  That is why the TFG Copy-Ethiopia are usually targeted not only by other armed groups who are normally civilians, but also are wanted by Alshabab fighters.

    Somali Prisident vs Somali Prime Minister; the War has begun

    The Somali President Abdullahi Yusuf is once again at his game of campaigning to dislodge the Prime Minister from his post after he recently fired Mogadishu Mayor for not doing his job.  The deposed Mayor of the Capital is a close ally of the corrupt President.
     
    Mr Nur, the U.S. and other EU backed Somali Prime Minister is furious about the President's agenda of pulling strings to get him fired in line with his predecessor, Mr Gedi, the former Somali Prime Minister who was fired after he had political fued with Mr. Yusuf.  Sources say if the un-reconcileable political differences continue, the TFG are once again in jeapordy of losing any remaining credibility. 
     
    The mistrust between the top TFG officials started when the Prime Minister removed several Abdullahi Yusuf loyalists from their government offices.  Last week Mr. Nur removed Mohammed Dhere who was the Capital city's Mayor and worked directly for Mr. Yusuf.  Mr. Dhere was know to do whatever possible to fulfill Yusuf's agenda of continuing Mogadishu crisis.  Seing this as a contrary to what the Mayor's responsibilities were, Mr. Nur took action and fired him.
     
    Many of the city's residents indorsed his decision with several show-of-support demonstrations.  In turn, Mr. Yusuf started firing several minisers who are Nur's loyalists as well.  In addition, he commanded more than 10 other ministers to stand down and resign.  They later submitted their resignation to the Prime Minister's office.
     
    Once again, the TFG appears to be devided from the top down.  All Somalis and other interested third party nations involved in the Somali politics are on the look for what is going to happen next.  Will it end with Prime Minister's removal again? or will there be reconcilliation between the TFG President and Prime Minister?
