Firefly, if you feel guilty about what your "people" did to other "people" in 1991, then just ignore history. But like they say, "I have forgiven, but I will never forget".

I've learnt that there was a shirib composed in the South against the war in Hargeisa in '88-'89. I'd never heard of it before and I've also learnt of people who refused to participate in the slaughtering of their countrymen.

what? when did I say that? I said Hirsi Magan Isse was apart of the SSDF, not HERSI MORGAN. Learn to f-king read.

Magan Isse was one of the leaders of the Somali Salvation Democratic Front (SSDF), one of the many factions in this civil war. He is a former comrade-in-arms of president Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed

Are they just reiterating what they've heard? Or do they actually read about this stuff? Anyhow, knowing Isaaq, Darood, Hawiye and the rest inside out isn't going to get you to Jannah. So just stick with the Qur'an and Sunnah, and your school books. Try to make a difference, and use your talent and/or knowledge to help your people back home, and the Somali community in the diaspora. We're all Muslims first, then Somali, qabiil shouldn't be an issue, insha-Allah. There's nothing wrong with knowing who you are, where you came from etc, but don't use that to put down your fellow Somalis.

"O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of God is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And God has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things)."(49:13)

You would think the younger generation would think differently from their parents and grand parents especially those living in the west who have no experience of the war. But sadly too many of them are afflicted by same tribal sickness that engulfed their forefathers. Common sense is not common after all

It's quite cringe worthy and embarrassing the kinda stuff they know. Some of these kiddos know the insides of qabiils in great details, but they don't even know that here in UK the far right extremist BNP has won a few seats here, and subsequently got elected to the European parliment. That is far more concerning than a couple of sub-clans fake leaders holding useless meetings of how to get revenge on X qabiil because they killed one of theirs.

Get your priorities straight.
