But I am pretty sure you prefer NSS Riyaale and all the other former Faqash who become your leaders.
As for rayaale, yes he was a member of sirdoonka faqashta however whatever he may have done was forgiven by people of somaliland - even though there isn't any evidence of the crimes he may have committed. All the other 'faqash' you mention were also forgiven.
What Riyaale did is not a secret, every single somali knows that and its even documented by Human rights watch, UNHCR and others.
This is just an extract from a report I quickly googled, you can find a lot more on the net including from somaliland websites.
http://www.hrw.org/sites/default/files/ ... 709web.pdfRiyale’s ascension to the presidency aroused considerable concern in some quarters because of his close association with some of the worst human rights violations of the Siad Barre era. Riyale served for many years in the Somali government’s feared National Security Service (NSS). He was the highest-ranking NSS officer in Berbera in the late 1980s, a time when the NSS and other security agencies were carrying out mass arrests, torture, and extrajudicial killings of suspected SNM supporters.
As for Saado Ali, She was speaking out against the bombardments when most other Somali singers including singers from your clan were singing Duuceysane Wiilkeygo and other songs for the soldiers being sent to fight in the North.
