Post Union of 1960 the agenda was hijacked by Mudulood+Majeerteen[M&M] it was part of their political consolidation and strategy to falsify the actual numbers of different clans and make the population believe that they had more right to greater portions of political office in the republic. The propaganda was maintained from 1960 - 1969, by the time Barre took power the illusion was maintianed that the Isaaq were only a handfull of people equal to MJ. The fact that Isaaq occupied a single continious portion of republic land helped propagate the illusion and propagande created about their numbers. When faced with reality in the late 80ies nobody could believe the shear scale fo their actual population who many Security apparatus officials were lead to believe that only a handfull of rebels were causing chaos and they should be rounded up and dealt with. 50,000 mass murdered claims one BBC report.
That was in the 80ies brother.
If today 50,000 MJ are killed brother that is the whole population of Gerowe Today.
Our people have developed the art of propaganda many thanks to M&M.
As far as Somalia state is concerned Hawiye are the majority and the second biggest Clan is D&M if we are honest.
