Hydrogen I'm quite sure from your constant obsession with men and how they look you are a female. But, if that small fraction of chance goes against what any rational male can see and you turn out to be a male. Don't worry, this is 2013 and with a help of a doctor you can have the two holes you've always wished that's incar you've not got one already..

I'm pretty sure you're the one who comments on how South Somali men look... stop sexualising this

[Bilis]

Yeah, this back and forth doesn't really solve anything. What certain folks here should instead be asking themselves is why they want to go back to how things were immediately after the colonial period rather than before it?

The fact is, British Somaliland was never a British colony. It was a protectorate. This means that it was never legally Britain's right to “grant independence” to the territory in the first place.

As a matter of fact, the protection treaty that the Warsangali Sultanate signed with Britain in 1887 explicitly refers to the Sultanate's domain as a country in its own right. In exchange for protection, the agreement stipulates that the Sultanate would agree to assist the British where necessary in areas under its jurisdiction. The Sultanate would also agree to stop all slave trading activity:

TREATIES, &c., between the Warsangalis (BritishProtection; Slave Trade; Wrecks: &c.). - January 27,1886

THE British Government and the Elders of theWarsangali tribe who have signed this Agreement beingdesirous of maintaining and strengthening therelations of peace and friendship existing betweenthem;

The British Government have named and appointedMajor Frederick Mercer Hunter, C.S.I., Political Agentand Consul for the Somali Coast, to conclude a Treatyfor this purpose.

The said Major F. M. Hunter, C.S.I., PoliticalAgent and Consul for the Somali Coast, and the saidElders of the Warsangali, have agreed upon andconcluded the following articles:-

Here's Sultan Mohamoud Ali Shire being presented with a medal by a young Queen Elizabeth II:



The British eventually exiled the Sultan to the Seychelles when he ignored their request to allow their troops to enter his domain in order to pursue Sayyid Muhammad Abdullah Hassan's Dervish forces.

So if one really wants to talk about independence, one must start from when this whole protectorate affair actually began i.e. the pre-colonial period. One must look at who the actual pre-colonial rulers of the territory were and what they stood for.

This kind of topics is what you call CHAOS.


Some are laughing without any reason, some are talking to themselves, others are staring at nowhere. It reminds me of this pic:


Totally anarchy.
