A clear majority voted the regime was responsible.

somalis have never been under one governing body until it was forced upon us by the colonial powers. if you take a bunch of animals that have never lived together and force them into a cage, one shouldn't surprised if they kill each other. that's why a central government will never work in somalia.

What were the different cultures between the north and south?The_Patriot wrote:It depends on what angle you look at it from.
1) Historical
2) Economical
3)Cultural
4)External Factors
MSB AU had both negative and positive aspects but this is not an excuse for the entire destruction of Somalia to be blame at him .
There has been successful regime changes across the world like Uganda, Rwanda etc nothing has been recorded of the somali proportion.
Seems like folks from somalia never fought for independence to know what it is and preferred to be servitudes to the Colonialists.

Re: Who is responsible for the downfall?
first of all, the "somalia" project failed because it was doomed to fail. like i said before somalis have never been under one governing body before so forcing it on us was a big mistake. the fact that language and religion could not unite us is enough evidence of that. clearly somalis have different interests, cultural practices, outlooks on life etc. some people on here think these are just minor difference but why are we still fighting then?Cirwaaq wrote:gemini_snake wrote:right on.The_Patriot wrote:

You could be right. The educated, the experienced, the intellectual, etc-- instead of manning up and fixing the problems, they fled.WestLdnShawty wrote:Somali diaspora!!
