WDM – Critical Analysis, News & Commentaries20 November 2025 Welcome to the Federal Republic of Fee-Somalia — a place where entering your own homeland is now a geopolitical adventure, a bureaucratic lottery, and a fiscal ambush. In this country, the price of stepping onto Somali soil depends entirely on which political fiefdom stamped your paper, […]
Welcome to Puntland—once the bedrock of a fragile Somali federation, now a mirage built not on sand but on collective fiction. The state that once prided itself as the first pillar of the federal experiment has quietly misplaced its founding objectives somewhere between donor conference buffets and expired project memoranda. Its “institutions” stand like archaeological […]
Be realistic — painfully realistic, the kind of realism that makes people shift in their seats and reach for the nearest excuse. Mogadishu is no longer a “shared capital.” It hasn’t been for more than three decades, yet the political class still recites the lie with the enthusiasm of a badly trained parrot. What stands […]
Imagine you – you did everything right. You waited. You filled out the papers. You answered the questions. You pledged allegiance. You became a citizen of United States. You believed you had joined the club. You believed citizenship meant you were safe.And then: poof. Someone upstairs decides you weren’t good enough after all. Someone digs […]
WDM EDITORIAL Somalia’s federal experiment was never meant to be glamorous, but it was at least supposed to function. Today, even that modest expectation has collapsed into a farce so grotesque it would make a kleptocrat blush.

WARSAME DIGITAL MEDIA (WDM) – EDITORIAL Somalia is no longer simply failing. It is being dragged—deliberately—toward fatal disintegration by a presidency that has exhausted its moral legitimacy, constitutional mandate, and political usefulness. Today, every indicator points not to mere instability but to an approaching national event horizon, a point of no return from which no […]
(WDM Edition — No Mercy, No Makeup, No Illusions) Cue the drums. Light the torches. Release the clowns.The great Somali political circus is back in town for the 2026 election season — and like every cheap, recycled travelling show, the script hasn’t changed since Siyad Barre rode this horse into the ground. The faces age, […]
This is where and when we had established Southwest Somalia in 2001. After that, SRRC (SOMALI RECONCILIATION and RECONSTRUCTION COUNCIL), a council of Somali warlords, was established to oppose TNG of AbdulQassin Salad Hassan, who was crowned in Arta (Djibouti) Conference in 2000. You have that story in our Dhaxalreeb videos, 2025.
The Illusion of Peace in the “Second Republic“ Two decades after the establishment of the Second Somali Republic through the 2004 Transitional Federal Charter, the promise of a unified, federal Somalia remains tragically unfulfilled. The official narrative would have us believe that the civil war belongs to the past, that the federal system is steadily […]
