In 1976 Afweyne requested his country be confederated with Ethiopia. However the president of Ethiopia, Col. Teferi Benti rejected the request.

Subsequent to this decision many youth lost their lives. First in the '77 war. Second in the civil wars and collapse of Somalia.

This indicates that afwyene decision was right and the alternative has been so far disastrous.

the word SOMALI was first mentioned, not in Arabic book, not in English book, not in Chinese book but in the Ethiopian chronicle of Atse Hamde Tsion. So there is a lot of history going back centuries where in the Somalis were part of the central Ethiopian government. So technically ethopia will take what is rest of somalia since it belong to them in the first place. Xaarmajo will not going to do anything about it since he will be deported to his demise to Lagos just like what they've did with his ansestor.I beleive sometime by the early 2020's Ethiomalia will be a reality.

dhagacas are far from 99% muslim, they have many christians, jews, shias, alawites and the list goes on and on. Somali identity is solid when it comes to religion, and in the Kacaan the country's religious identity was protected, today we have foreign political organisations in our country confusing the people, like ala sheekh, like alshabab, hisbul islam etc

Good. You already have proved my point. What i'm trying to say is it's wrong to mix an identity with a religion you will find alot people who have different religious beliefs. Aggreed with the rest

Identity is who you are right ? if I am Muslim, is that not part of my identity ? I am talking about me personally. does that make sense, because I don't want to engage with a psycho-babbler.

Now 99.9995% of Somalis Muslim, if we apply the same logic to them, does this not make Somali peoples identity Islamic too ? of course it does, that is why I said Islam is core to Somalinimo, just like I speak Somali, I am Marehan(Clan family),99.9% of Somalis speak Somali and have a known clan family.

This is our identity deal with it, you cannot fool us into hating Islam because of Arabs, its illogical, we have been at war with Arabs before, we do not speak Arabic, we do not have their culture, and in ancient times we were monotheist while they were Pagans.
