A bunch of people ended up on the same spot of land and decided to create a fancy story that gave their lives more meaning. That's all it comes down to.

Basically what you are saying is these Fabricated qawiils don't have a common ancestory?

There is no single prime somali father?

We are a collective of mixed raced people, amhara, Dir, oromo, zanzibaris, sudanis, panjubis, persian, turks, yemanis... etc

Dir are the only realy pure blooded somalis then?

Aabe Siyaad (aun) made us members at arab league

so we're arab since 1974

mashallah ku dheeh

and african .. mashallah

I don't know what it means to be Dir. However I know that we all have our ab tiris, you can count back for so long until the names and characters start to get fictious so yes we are all mixed, all the people that we share DNA with are people we have at one time or another lived amongst until we migrated. Thats how every country has been populated, there is no one man team that we all came from...unless of course you are going back to the original creation story.

I watched a documentary someone posted here a while ago called the genetic odyssey of man, it's very informative:

People move, mix and migrate and some decided to settle in what is now Somalia, we're their offspring, that is what I believe.

Ayeyo donbiro dired was dir right...lol

So Darood married into the Dir blood line and so must have his sons unless he mail ordered them prides from arabia... the original arab bloodline will have been absorbed among the Dir. We are talking about 1 arab man and 36 possible generation of marrying mothers from a Dir bloodline.

Somalis are a patriachial society so women don't matter

You are joking right?
Walahi some Somalis .. are messed up big time ..

I am for sure not an Arab nor want to be an Arab all that
tribal/Qabiil it's crap .. you only use Qabil .. to bring certain people together
there is no way that every single tribe from Somalia has ancestors who originally came from Arabia ..

It's more like the other way around with Arabs having ancestors who were Africans .. since human life started in East Africa
It makes more sense.. I believe it's time to knock some sense into these dusty nomads!

This Myth of somalis originating in arabia will one day be busted... The reality will be that many arabs have somali ancestory.

We are Somali ethnic group and fellow Muslims and in my view that is what matters. All of other claims are bogus and no historical facts proving them. We should accept we are one ethnic group who have always lived in the Horn of Africa.
