By MARK FINEMAN Jan. 18, 1993 12 AM PT TIMES STAFF WRITER MOGADISHU, Somalia — Far beneath the surface of the tragic drama of Somalia, four major U.S. oil companies are quietly sitting on a prospective fortune in exclusive concessions to explore and exploit tens of millions of acres of the Somali countryside. That land, in the opinion of […]
The dream of a stable, unified Somalia, rebuilt upon a federal framework, has long been the central pillar of the nation’s post-conflict political order. Yet, beneath the official rhetoric of shared governance and equitable power distribution, a persistent and contentious reality simmers: the profound unevenness in federal employment across the Federal Member States (FMS). While […]
A WAPMEN Editorial — Speaking Truth to Power, Without Fear or Favour There are moments when a nation’s leadership is tested not by its enemies, but by its own choices. The bloodshed in Borama is one such moment—a direct, preventable crisis born from a failure to listen. It was not an accident.It was not a […]
By WDM Staff Writer Introduction: A Voice Forged in the Crucible of State-Building In the vast and fractured landscape of Somali political literature, few voices combine historical memory, administrative experience, and moral clarity as compellingly as Ismail H. Warsame. His writings—ranging from autobiographical reflections to sharp political essays—exist at the intersection of lived governance and […]

Donald J. Trump—patron saint of grievance politics, high priest of paranoiac nationalism—has once again found a new enemy. This time, his target is Somali-Americans. In a December 2025 cabinet meeting, the former president declared immigrants from Somalia “garbage,” said they “come from hell” and “contribute nothing,” and vowed, “we don’t want them in our country.” […]

Trump, has escalated a campaign of dehumanization and targeted persecution against a specific ethnic and religious minority: the Somali-American community. This is not […]
In the grand, unfolding reality show that is American politics, the script has become as predictable as a laugh track. When the narrative sours, when the promised economic boom fizzles into continued inflation and tariff-induced headaches, there is a trusted formula for changing the channel. This week’s episode: “The President and the Garbage,” starring Donald […]

By Warsame Digital Media (WDM) Introduction: The Rhetoric of Division In recent days, Donald Trump has escalated a long-standing pattern of rhetoric against Somali-Americans, using language that crosses from political criticism into outright derogation, having called them “garbage” and stating, “I don’t want them in our country.” This editorial examines these attacks […]
administration leaders to indulge in prohibitively expensive state receptions and send-off of the head of the Government whenever he steps out of the Capital or returns to it. Even a short working visit from a region requires mobilization of the entire residents of Garowe for a Welcome Party either to receive the President or to send him off. This entails huge security operations every time there is such an event. All Government and economic activities of the City come to a standstill for a whole working day. Public Schools are closed for the day for students to participate in the huge party at airport.

The single transport road linking up the country from West to…
