Siad Barre described the SNM, a separatist movement that the Somali government fought in 1988 and whose successors still run the separatist project in the region today, as a terrorist movement.
Looking at their actions today, it is not difficult to understand why he called them terrorists.
It’s a Trumpian World Cup for racism — why don’t those who condemned Qatar 2022 say so?
My piece for The Guardian on the blatant hypocrisy and double standards on full display. https://t.co/NKmtaTF2bH
🇸🇴 Nunca vi algo así. En Somalia hoy se llenó un estadio para recibir como héroe nacional a Omar Artan, el árbitro al que Estados Unidos le negó la entrada al Mundial. Increíble.
🚨 HUMILIATION AT THE WORLD CUP: SENEGAL STARS TREATED LIKE CRIMINALS BY US BORDER THUGS
Senegal 🇸��� national team arrives in the US for #WorldCup2026 — and what do they get?
US authorities pulling them off the plane for aggressive bag searches, invasive checks, and public degradation right on the tarmac. Top African football giants disrespected like suspects.
This is not "security." This is racist arrogance from the host nation that lectures the world on fairness while treating African players like second-class humans.
Same America blocking referees, humiliating teams, and showing its true face to the Global South.
Senegal, Africa is with you. CAF and FIFA — speak up or remain useless puppets.
The World Cup belongs to the world, not to US ego and discrimination.
Expose this disgrace. Share widely.
What an absolute disgrace. A FIFA-certified referee being denied entry to the United States purely because he is Somali.
The World Cup is meant to bring people together. This is racism, plain and simple. Shameful.

"My personal pride and joy." That's how Peter Mandelson described the Palantir deal he brokered.
The whole thing stinks. Kick Palantir out of our NHS, now.
Americans and Europeans deserve to know the truth. They deserve to know that their tax dollars fund Ukrainian terrorists who bomb children. Even if Western “journalists” choose to stay silent, I never will.
At the Palestine March on Saturday, I had a message for the billionaire-funded Tommy Robinson march down the road:
Your hatred won’t build one council house, improve one hospital or help one homeless person on the streets of London.
