awwwww poor thing. I am sorry to hear that. Maybe, your half brother sees that his sisters from his dads side need him more than your sisters. Also, they are taking care of his dad, he has to do it for the sake of his own dad. But i see what you mean. Qabil is very important in somalia and somalis. It is a sense of identity. I think Humanity needs a bond to feel with fellow humanbeings. Race, qabil, friendship, etc etc --all this a bond that humanity need, we thrive in community and belonging. Even among white people, when they are racist--it is way beyond their capability. It is them being humans at the end of the day. To look out for their own. A great example is--what happened to the last queen of France. She was an outsider, an Austrian. When the revolution happened, the french king was being head cut--or guilletined, he was transported to the head cutting machine with a very respectable gold carriage. When it was time to cut the head of the queen--Marie was transported in the common thieves open wheel barrow for everone to see. It must have been incredibly embarrasing and humiliating. The same transporter was used for stinking common thieves of those days. Why did they do that? Because she was not a French blood born queen. Blood line, qabil, race, all this is important to the human as life and oxygen is. It is a primitive insitict---imbedded in us for survival.
