It's sad that people compare these two problems. Our problems are our own and can end whenever we see sense.

Not really Somalis have tribal problem that its self is one problem

But with Alshabaab u cant reason with Alshabaab or jihadi groups

so in large Somalis have 2 problems one is man made

the other one is out of our control

Tbf i know where Abdijohnson is coming from. It's because of the Media. The Middle East is propelled way too much. Today Muslims in occupied territories in China are being told they can't fast whilst Muslims from Burma are being laid to waste in their hundreds. That gets nowhere near the same attention as a few stupid Arabs killing each other and being pay rolled by Westerners etc. The only genuine Arab nation out there which has always helped Somalia is Egypt. The Yemenis were our neighbours and we welcomed their refugees into our country when they were split between North and South (Carab Soomaali are originally from Aden and Mukallah) but how did they repay us? They supported Ethiopia against us during the Galbeed war smh.

Ina Cabdille Xasan once said "maandhow ciyaarta iga daayoo, carab waa naage." And its true. All the oil and wealth they've horded, what has it benefited them? Their countries have polarized economies, their governments on the verges of being overthrown, and their land is being desecrated by laangaab Isreal.

There is also a problem with the shuyukh who also are guilty of putting Arabia on the spotlight. I pray at a Masjid and the shady Imam spends half an hour talking about raising money for Syria when the Muslims around the world are being killed and starved.

I think hes shocked at your stupidity, who even thinks like that loooool

Classiq aka thehappyone,


I beg to differ. I think, on a "deeper" level u are shocked at the truth i spoke, which speaks to the depth core of the loyalty of Somalis to the arabs. I think truth is rarely embraced smoothly. We can beg to disagree, but something tells me -- i made an a dent in your impression.
