Marehan history, I am talking about big history here, like the dervishes, the ajuran empire, the mijerteen kingdom, etc..., starts with msb in 1969. They had the entire government, the money, the arms, the positions, at their disposal and they milked it by stealing lands and resources. They didn't do this with their own power, but with a government power.
their second rule was JVA in kismaayo from 99-2006, here most of their power was derived from their association with HG. How do we know? when Hisbul Islam led by Xasan Turki, and ras kambooni, led by axmed madoobe marched on kismaayo, the hawiye portion including indhacade and seeraar left the city without a fight, and kismaayo fell the same day. If marehan were ruling kismaayo for the 7 year prior with their own strength, they would hold it on their own when HG left them to fend for themselves. barre hiiraale's own son was killed, and he himself lost an eye which is why he sleeps with his a pirate patch today. he is on youtube crying about onlf. kkkk
marehan's third rule is today with farmaajo, and they tried to do the msb tactic, use the government to karbaash their rivals and landgrab, but this time people were woke to that shit.
they were quiet for 5 years before farmaajo, and and never held a demonstration against madoobe and they shut the fucked up, but as soon as farmajo showed up, they grew balls and started talking shit. They deployed the entire sna to gedo, stole all the money and are still holding the election on hold because they want to use the government to get back at madoobe, they can't do it as a clan.
the point is, marehan as a clan and with their own power alone, can't do shit to anyone. they lost all lands in GG, kismaayo is gone because hawiye held it for them, and now gedo is in serious trouble.
Everything else is just unfounded faan and booto. nothing more, nothing less.
ogaden established the first pan somali movement when somalis didn't even understand the concept of nation hood.

ogaden as a clan expanded from hawd to isiolio, a distance of 2000 kms
from awaare to bale on the oromo border.
and we didnt using a government either.
JL=ogaden. you'll need to do a lot more than talking and making up fake ass maps on snet to change that.
and yeah, it's not all of ogaden you are fighting. don't drag us galbeedians into the battle because if a third of us join the fight, you'll not even hold gedo.
This is a reflection of the integrity and rigor I apply as a standard for any claim or statement or position I take on history. It is LITERALLY beyond your or some random forum's critique and yet I still apply it as a standard regardless of the obligation I do or don't feel under the circumstances;
