According to you Somaliland is a clan state because it's dominated by one clan (who's majority) despite history and the independence of Somaliland legitimizing it as a sovereign state. By your logic, Djibouti is also a clan state because it's dominated by Ciise. Afars who's land is 60% of Djibouti have 4 ministries more than Isaaq, who do not have a single district. The Isaaqs being descendants of the business community who settled there in late 1890's.

Your arguments are based on the clan rhetoric of Darood Ismaciil. The argument are not based on facts or common sense, if they were, you wouldn't deny the undeniable.

Of course I'm more entitled to Sool than you are. My family is from Caynaba district and my paternal great grandfather is buried there. I got land in the tuulo he's buried. What's your connection to Sool other than a baseless entitlement? Lol @ Somalinimo.

It seems like you missed my argument completely. You can't see the wood for the trees because of clan emotions. Every inch of Somaliland republic belongs to the state of Somaliland. Isaaq have no interests claiming other peoples land. Our land as well as the land of other clans fall under state jurisdiction.


The colonialists created the concept of a modern Somali state. The same white man you're trying ridicule enabled Somalis to have their own states in the Horn of Africa. If it wasn't for these colonialists, Somalia would lose the current dispute with Kenya about the maritime border between the two states.

Even the concept of "Somaliweyn" was created by and propagated for, by the foreign minister of UK - Ernest Bevin.

I don't get your obsession with colonialism though. Somaliland gained its independence 54 years ago. The AU's position on the borders of Africa is that the colonial boundaries should remain in order to minimize conflict. We won't go against Africa. Simple as that.

I support a UN supervised state referendum on wether Somaliland should legally unite with Somalia or Somaliland regaining its long lost sovereignty. The outcome of such referendum would cement the fate of Somaliland.

Majority rules.

I've always been amused when a dooro from eyl tells an Isaaq person about his own deegaan. Sanaag is not up for dispute and Sool is shared territory. I know this because it's my land. But then you guys are landless so are forced to claim other people's cities and towns like Kismayo.

Also this thread is a failure. Wanlaweyn has always been the home of many civilisation, sultanate's and maritime centre.

The irony is that, majority of the civilisation in modern day Somaliland were either Daarood owned like the 300 year old Warsangali Sultanate, the Dervish state and their Taleex architecture or were Islamic orientated civilisation such as the Adal whom were spearheaded by Daaroods such as Marehan and Ogaden.

Hawiye, Daarood and Southern Dirs were the only clans that can boast with such great and long civilisation. Whilst the eydoors were nothing but footsoldiers for the Dervish or the British.

Whats the odds that those naked savages are our very own Boons from Gedo. Wallahi I think this must be pre-Darod Marexaan..

did this nigger just claim harar a dir city

I think you misunderstood me. I never said the whole of Marexaan was naked savages but as has been said here many times they absorbed a lot of the non-somali locals during their move south. Today maybe as much as 10% of Marexaan is genuine and the rest are the incorporated naked Boons..
