Unfolding Stories. Social Networking Moments

Am having painful stomach ache and interrupting my comfortable position of watching The live updates of Egypt uprising
The past few weeks i was closely following with news updates from the Arab world which to me as Tarahson is very touching and at some point proves to me that media is very powerful tool. Imagine what happened in Tunisia and now is Happening in Egypt has been organized using Facebook and Twitter by sending tweets to people where to gather.
I have great respect for journalists not all of them but to those reporting from volatile areas risking their lives to share information with the world. i was watching Aljazeera and one of their Reporters was Talking about how the Authorities detained him and Confiscated their equipment despite being warned further arrest if he continues his work and after few hours later he was brave enough to update us on whats going on the ground not to mention those in Somalia Vulnerable to much more than That.
Actually in This country Fbook, youtube and most of the western social networking has been blocked  but that couldn't stop me from watching the updates, there is very good site like youtube which i could say is much more friendly than youtube called youku. you can find almost anything, from latest news video clips, film trailers to Somali music Videos which i couldnt believe when i found on the site...But what might be difficult is the language because almost everything is in Chinese. Since youku does not have Live streaming of Aljazeera i turned my computer to TV and watch Live on youtube which i would not mention how am accessing for personal reasons.
I hope the Egyptian wont turn back after all those deadly protests just like the Iranians last year, and i wish them Victory.

Flashing News

Sometimes when am alone in the room watching the news flashing images of Somalia i just wonder how long can we kill each other and how long can we recover if ever it happens we unite. Today while watching the news suddenly there was Flashing breaking news on top of the screen, in Bold letters it read. "South Korean commandos invaded Hijacked ship, freed all hostages and killed 8 pirates"........and while that was breaking news the scrolling news bar at the bottom read, Heavy fighting in Mogadishu kills five. another read "almost half a million starving in Somalia" maybe this might sound normal to the ears of Somalis whom most of them witnessed or listened stories from families, but for young Somalis like me who desperately needs a place to call Home feels depressed. i just wish i can fully enjoy Somalia before i die, its such unimaginable how things are going now, Al-shabab, Pirates, corrupt leaders, and father of all Qabiil ruined our dreams, killed thousands and made millions refugees. I can only pray for those people left homeless, Starving under the scorching sun and no one to Help. Walahi this world is insane with  Dirty minded people used by money and outside enemy ideas.
May Allah(SW) forgive us and Help Somalis. with Hope inshallah things will change....
