Rare interview with H.E. President Siad Barre.

[The`Republic]

Nin aan talin jirin haduu taliyo nin aan tagi jirin baa tago



p.s. On a side note, watching this video reminded me back when I first joined this forum and the Isaaq kids used to swear what was fed to them in their living rooms...that [along with supposedly inventing the Somali script, the national anthem, coming up with the flag, etc etc etc] that they used to translate for Barre

[HusseinHassan]

the lion of africa. the last legitimate president of the somali people and somalia.

Voltage back to his very best; crying after a dead man.lool

For the record my own grandfather left British Somaliand as early as the 30's along with many other Isaaq who are on record as being the very first Somali's to leave the Somali lands. On the otherhand I don't know any Marexaans seamen or any records showing them leaving Somalia. So how can the two people be compared? One was local the other global.
Even today's Somalia the Isaaq are at the top and the Marexaans in the bush.

Voltage my dear chap. No amount of afewynes Darod/propaganda will change either your history nor your future. Your tribe has been nobody in the history books and are nobody today. Your 5 minutes of fame came and went when that opportunist geljire stole tha leadership of an infant nation and sent it in to the abyse and destroying it. Now your back in the bush with no admin nor major city besides a few empty villages..

Form is temporary and class is perminant..

is this what you brought to the table? "my grandfather was a seaman and left somali-lands in the 1930s"? if your grandfather had any wealth (camels, land), i doubt your grandfather would hop on a british sailboat with other white, godless, possibly homosexual englishmen and leave behind his wife, kids and camels/land (wealth) behind.
so basically, your grandfather was doing tahriib about 80 years ago.

Even today's Somalia the Isaaq are at the top and the Marexaans in the bush.

comparing isaaq to a sub/sub clan of darod. i'll be merciful and let that slide

[original dervish]

Tahriib in the 19930s.

Sky, why are you getting emotional brother? I said nothing about Isaaq as a clan. I just said "some" of the facts believed by the Isaaq kids were laughable. Did they say they used to translate for Barre, they wrote the script, etc.

I mean those are facts that were actually about non-facts.

p.s. Only the poor, huddled, peasant masses migrated from their countries in this times. Who founded Canada, USA, Australia? The poor, displaced, prisoners, peasants of the dreary British Isles. The elite of their present society never have reason to leave their privilege if there is security.

I mean seriously there are jokes and then there are tasteless jokes. Somebody starts a topic and even if you have a different opinion why post an image of a toilet in a public forum?

Children of peasants without any decorum and proper upbringing.

[Warabaha]

Class is permanent, 1969 to 1991. 20 years will not change Somali history that has been around for thousands of years.

[Tanker]

Wallahi I am proud of my people their entire life's is history

this is where your messiah died. In the most embarrassing way humanly possible. A befitting end to a man who stood for nothing but division and treachery

[Warabaha]

Issaq mashallah have a beautiful and long history. We were successful and proud like we were 1000 years before

[Thuganomics]

There was nothing remotely "Exillent" about Afwayne

[HusseinHassan]

There was nothing remotely "Exillent" about Afwayne

first, it's excellent and not 'exillent' and second, you do know afwayne isn't a derogatory term, right.
