white girls wrote this offensive remarks !
First of all, i just want to emphasize that this thread is not meant to elicit any provocation against Somalis of this forum, it is only meant to determine if my own stereotypical observation of the different clans of Somalis is also consistent with how different Somalis clans perceive each other.
Darood
Darood seems to show a tendency of arrogance and a paternalistic attitude toward other clans of Somalia, and they perceive them selves as the Alpha-Omega and king makers of the country. furthermore, they consider people from the Hawiye clan in particular as hillbilly while they see them selves as sophisticated and street smart city people. An acquaintance of mine who hails from the darood clan for instance, told me jokingly that in Bosaso,the locals don't do nothing but chewing chat and relaxing while hard and manual labor is done by Hawiye, he even took his own mother as an example and boastfully, he claimed she has 2 hawiye house maid to maintain her needs.
Isaac
Most of the Somalis i know hails from the Isaac and i get along with them very well. During the course of our discussion in reference to the somali people in general , they label people south of Somaliland as Dangerous and unpredictable and the same time, they admire the same people as risk takers and bold. a Half Yemeni and Half Somali once told, among the somali clan, isaac are very trustworthy and they understand a deal is a deal regardless how you flip flap it while other somalis try to change the rule of the game after the deal which eventually ends with either physical or verbal confrontation. On the down side, according to him, The isaac are very liberal, once they arrive in the west, they try to act and behave more Europeans than the Europeans themselves.
Hawiye
Very conservative, and above the surface, they try to project themselves as God fearing and religious people. a feeling of victimization among the hawiye toward their Northern kinship in particular Darood is evident.
Dir
I have encountered 3 Dir Somalis in my life
Wallahi
this must one of the most Biased and Offensive thread i have ever read, its evidently clear that you are Darood (which i have no prob with), but please
don't ever generalize us Hawiye again, and just for the sake of asking (by the way, i have been to Garowe,Bossaso and Galkacyo, and i know all there is to know about Puntland, so dont lie to me) which of the so called Hawiye's clans have you and your ''acquaintance'' seen in bossasso, name me one sub Clan you have seen that labours or serves your beesha in the name of Hawiye, i dare you, NAME ME ONE (pretty please, say HG or Mudolood).
There are Four things you will definitly always see in Puntland (and i know those that have been to Puntland will concur with me);
1.
Beggers, (all are D&M)
2.
Labours and Shoe shiners, (They are all Jareer)
3.Puntlanders sitting outside in mass in every corner watching SNTV ''hillbilly' 'Hawiye politics with envious eyes.
4.and Goats, everywhere you go in puntland there is goats all about.
Im in Garowe right now, and there is only 3 Hawiye, which is me (HG), abgaal masjid leader, and Duduble that works for puntland dowlada hoose.
As for Hawiye's feeling like Victims, oooooh Please
