"Dulce et decorum est Pro Patria mori" Carminum liber tertius, II.13 Quintus Horatius Flaccus (65 BC - 8 BC) to this I would add, Dulce et Decorum est Pro Deus mori...that's it!
I am what i am today because of my ancestors who faught for my clan over centuries to preserve their lives, territory, dignity, name, and everything else.
A Somali person would die for his clan than for an abstraction , a statement by Nuruddin Farah.
I agree with Kumbuli that clan is like Onion, it goes down into layer after layer until no more, but for dangerous circumstance, if it is harsh and demands a much-needed support and help for the survival of your family, then you are obliged to fight for it for peaceful purposes and the maintenance of your existance.
