Somalian Alberta Turf War Shows No End
He came to Alberta looking to pay for university, instead allegedly finding drugs and bad friends. Now, his slain body will lay in Alberta forever, his name marked on a long list of dead young Somali-Canadian men. Abdinasir Abdulkadir Dirie wont make it to first-year university this fall, the kind of prosperous future his father sought for his family when he immigrated. I thought Canada is a peace country. (It offered) a future for my life, my children. This is a very bad thing.said Abdulkadir Tarambi, the 19-year-olds father. Abdulkadir Dirie was a native of Toronto. He was set to study computer science at York University in the fall, and saw prosperous Alberta as a way to pay for it, said Tarambi. (Young people) heard in Alberta you can get an easy job, get a lot of money, said Tarambi. In August 2008, he moved to Edmonton, staying with his older brother in Edmonton and working at Tim Hortons. Then he headed to Fort McMurray with an oil and gas job. By January, he was in trouble. According to the RCMP, Abdulkadir Dirie was arrested alongside four other young men, including a minor, in a Fort McMurray apartment Jan. 22. All were charged with possession of cocaine for trafficking and possession of proceeds of crime under $5,000. Abdulkadir Dirie was released on $500 bail, while his alleged associates paid thousands to be released. The last time his family heard from Abdulkadir Dirie was April 20, said family friend Mohamed Mohamed. Abdulkadir Dirie told his mother, as he often repeated, that he was coming home. Hed even bought a ticket, said Mohamed. Abdulkadir Diries body was found April 21 in an apartment on McDonald Avenue.

Somalians caught up in Alberta Turf Wars
Yet again, the victims were born in Somalia but raised in Toronto. Yet again, the victims appear to have had links to a bustling drug trade between Ontario and Alberta. Yet again, police have no suspects. On Feb. 17, Idiris Abess, 23, and Saed Adad, 22, were found dead in Hillside Manor, a downtown Fort McMurray apartment building notorious for drug-dealing and prostitution, according to current and former residents.

Somalians caught up in Alberta Turf Wars, K'naan speaks
Somali-Canadians from Ontario are being gunned down at an alarming rate in Alberta. Police blame the drug trade. Many of the deaths have been public execution-style slayings, family members say. "It seems like they want to send out a message, like, do not come near us," Mahmoud said. Alberta police agree, saying some of the killings have been "a message to Toronto," the CBC's John Lancaster reported.

The Life and Death of Abdinasir Dirie (Part 1 of 4)
Who really killed Abdinasir Dirie? A heart-rending story from inside Canada's Somali community. In the 1990s, Abdinasir Dirie's parents fled civil war in Somalia for the apparent peace and safety of Canada. Years later, G Baby, as his family called him, made his own way from the rough streets of Toronto's Jamestown Cres. (Doomstown) neighbourhood to the oilfields of Alberta looking for riches and good fortune. There, he died and his murder remains unsolved, like so many other murders of young Somali-Canadians. The extra twist in this case: some members of his family are convinced they know who committed the crime. Hear from the family of Abdinasir Dirie as the fifth estate explores the searing pain of their struggle and peels back the layers of a story even more complicated than anyone originally expected.

Somalis in Sweden evicted, demand free housing and more money.
A somali family in Sweden was evicted since they cant show any income. They mobilized other somalis in the small town of Katrineholm and marched to the welfare office. There they demand free housing, better playgrounds, more money, free immigration for all somalis, etc etc. Read more http://politisktinkorrekt.info/ Read more about the chaos in Sweden, in English: http://cavatus.wordpress.com/ Läs följande bloggar som är bland de mest lästa politiska bloggarna i Sverige. De har två saker gemensamt. 1. De skriver om hur verkligheten ser ut i Sverige vilket inte reflekteras i de stora media. De skriver ärligt om massvåldet, invandrarvåldet och de negativa konsekvenserna av den okontrollerade massinvandringen. De talar om vilka som ligger bakom det mesta av massvåldet, de ljuger inte som de stora tidningarna gör. Tidningarna antyder att svenskar ligger bakom nästan all grov våldsbrottslighet vilket är vilseledande och en falskt verklighetsbeskrivning. 2. De flesta av bloggarna har stoppas av tidningarnas politiska kommissarier, de är förbjudna att länkas till de stora tidningarnas artiklar via Twingly. De stora media vill inte spida sanningen om hur Sverige ser ut och tidningarna bedriver därmed en utstuderad politisk censur. Tidningarna länkar bara till banala ickepolitiska bloggar eller vänsterbloggar som håller med tidningarnas politiska agenda. Därför är det viktigt att sprida information om hur Sverige verkligen ser ut. Sluta köp de stora tidningarna, de ljuger och censurerar. Hjälp inte tidningarna, betala inte för deras lögner. Läs gratisversionen online, men lita inte på dem. Analysera kritiskt vad som skrivs och gå till bloggare och jämför sanningen, skillnaden är skrämmande. Fakta och viktig information får ni hos bloggarna, statligt kontrollerad media undanhåller avsiktigt nästan all viktig information så det oundvikliga folkupproret skjuts på framtiden. Den som inte följer dessa nyhetsbloggar som är störst i Sverige vet ingenting om situationen i Sverige. Dessa har nästa lika många läsare som de största tidningarna online: http://www.friatider.se/ http://politisktinkorrekt.info http://frianyheter.wordpress.com/ http://natverkmotpk.blogspot.com/ Ny utmärkt privatblogg. http://www.skrivkonst.net/ Privata bloggare, http://imittsverige.blogspot.com/ http://thoralfalfsson.webblogg.se/ http://robsten.blogspot.com/ http://everykindapeople.blogspot.com/ http://bortkopplad.se/bloggo/ http://affes.wordpress.com/ http://www.svenskmedia.blogspot.com/ http://www.ansiktsburk.blogspot.com/ http://spikharry.wordpress.com/ http://varjager.wordpress.com/ http://klartexten.wordpress.com/ http://allahuakbar.se/wordpress/ http://meritwager.wordpress.com/ Artiklar som ännu inte tagits bort av de politiska censurinrättningarna i Sverige. Journalisterna mörklägger sanningen om invandrare. http://www.dn.se/debatt/journalisterna-morklagger-sanningen-om-invandrarna-1....
