Abakar my mother is abdalle sabdi reer buulo on the outskirts of mogadishu

[Cusmano]

no i haven't been out there i just know my mom used to grow up there same with her brothers n sisters..but they lived in hamar xafada bermuda ...infact when the habar gedir and abgaals were fighting noone dared enter that area....

[Cusmano]

abakar infact their was saying...niinka bermuda galo kama soo baxoo..it was the most dangerous xafaad of hamar no joke either..

[Cusmano]

So my abti actually took me thru there once in 2000...so i can get pictures of where my home used to be and recording her xafaad for her...her house didn't get touched except the gates got stolen...now a few poor people squat there...but it was interesting visit...

New observations: Cumar Maxamud stole land from Marehan in Mudug

It says the Cumar Maxmuud started to graze with the Mareexaan who had the greatest pasture. It is funny we still have the greatest pasture in most of Somalia north of Beled-Weyne. I mean this is Galgaduud/Mudug and with the panaroma of Cabudwaaq, the amount of trees will never make you believe it is anywhere outside of Jubba regions



As for the guy they quoted on that grazing, Cruttendon, he wrote Marehan and Ogaden were the richest Somalis and "Mijjertheyn" the poorest in one of his articles.

Voltage, your article is talking about Galbeed. That's a different story altogether. That whole area is upside down.

Read again.

[paidmonk]

Your brain is good at SELECTIVE reading, but here is what my eyes saw:

This is the part mentioning the Majeerteen:

"The Majeerteen being AMONG the poorest of the Somali, and not possessing the countless flocks of sheep owned by the Galbeed tribes."

It also states that Marehan and Ogaden brought their shit to OUR land to trade. Then he goes on to describe the hills of the N and NE (Puntland) and then describes a 3-days journey into the interior (Galbeed) before talking about Majeerteen.

Am I missing something?

Abakar, if your murusade i don't even know why your defending hawiye for. When i was in hamar there was no such thing as hawiye..abgal vs habar gedir...habar gedir vs murusade...You should stick to murusade their alot more peaceful then the habar gedir and doqon abgaal...it's losing battle man cutt your losses and stick with murusade like hawadle done...hawadle is out of hawiye game and their going places now...don't get bogged down with abgal and habar gedir cuz they will just stab u in the back and u know that full well...they don't give shit about thats why the hawadle cutt it loose..

But i stick up for murusades their decent ppl that are stuck with unruly sons of bitches in habar gedir n abgal and trying to make it work with ppl who dont want it to work...wallahi bro do what hawadle did and save murusade from that continous death cycle and build up your own areas..
