Suppose, you are not qabyaaliiste.
You went to Somalia for holiday to spend several weeks with your family members.
Another tribe invades you. They want take revenge, and you are all in danger.
Wouldn’t you fight?

That is what I thought before going to Somalia 2 years ago. I found out that the idea of the Somali civil-war based on tribal grounds to be a "complicated" myth, and not as black and white that we led to believe it in the diaspora to be ever worried along those lines. Laughing Laughing

I agree with Mowhak. No one is going to attack your family in the name of a tribe. But there could be individuals who could rob you.

same u have a valid point. read this news from (JUST YESTERDAY)
http://somalinet.com/news/world/Soomaali/2282

A cell phone was robbed from a guy then he picked a fight with a totally different man who was subscribed to the robber's clan. Then it was clan fight all over sudden and at least 7 ppl lost their lives.

To rephrase your quesion: What the heck would u do in such a situation? I'd fight.
