Xamar was so beautiful under the Italians but does this mean they should've ruled? No!

Mogadishu under italians was only 1 xaafad that was nice. and that xaafad was the 1 where the colonialists lived

^ ma adiga joogtay? My father was alive then.

I dont think so Cool, mogadishu looked nice even before the Italians, markas xata there was more than 1 xafad built and looking beautiful!

I've seen several pictures with the italian rule and it looked beautiful and I've seen videos of mogadishu in the 1960's and it looked lovely and beautiful.

If I'm being honest I don't think there was huge changes done under Somali rule vs Italian rule, not that I'm biggin-up cadaan rule. In the end it was 'reer mogadishu' who built that, it was 'reer moqadishu' who made it a city of 'wonder' I don't need the italians to tell me this. Ibn Battuta said it long time ago.

Warsan, runta ka hadal gacaliso. Mogadishu became what it is cause of Somalis not italians. When Jale Siyad came to back there was only 1 big road in Mogadishu.

teeda kale, ma ogtahay that Mogdiashu's the only city in the world that was built by the locals. no foreign help ama business from outside.

compare this from 1960


to this 1980



or this

Very true! Somalis and Somalia would become so great if they had peace and loved each other because they are all muslims. They can do great things, but they can't work together and for country to exist you need that.

I'm not saying it was not beautiful under siad barre (aun) it was then too, but I believe it was beautiful always

Something I will never be able to come to grips with. Kill every Faqash in sight, But why not spare the damn city

I believe you would get a year long free supply of miro jaad from the Somalilanders in my local mafresh for that statement.
