Re: Is Somalinimo A Burden For Somali Prosperity?
Finally I see some one we share the same/similar opinion , when it comes the Importance of Clans in Somali Society. Since we dont have class differences Somali clans will always exist and qabyalad will never decrease same like the rich is getting richer in the west. What we need to do is to keep developing Somali 'Xeer' To minimize Qabil destructive sides. One thing i like about the 4.5 political system of Somalia federal goverment is because it encourages the unity of bigger and major clans instead of appeasing sub sub clans. i think thats one step forward to uproot low end tribilism which is the most destructive form of qabyalad. Somalinimo is based on Our clans, if you are not member of A Somali clan you are illegitimate child, imposter or half caste , you are Not straight Somali !TheMightyNomad wrote:LoDoon wrote:TheMightyNomad, could you please explain to me what authentic Somalinimo is?
Authentically somalinimo is all that defines being somalis including Clannism.
Did you Even read what i wrote?
You guys try to undermine and seperate Clannism from somalinimo and act like its not part of the somali reality. We must accept that we are a clan based societ and build around it to compliment it and bring out its potentials. Qabil are positive social unist that bones and keeps us together.
That is why you pseudo nationalistic Hags with your eurocentric reality always attack our identity like we dont have the right to self define ourselves and describe our own unique social reality.
Instead of dumping bunch of pseudo nationalistic bulshit like federalism, marxist communist socialism, wahabi governance or whatever foreign incompatible Crap you people have come up with. We instead need build our own system compatible with our own social structure thats is fit and tailored to us.
Once you do that Authentics Somalinimo that incorporates everything it means to be somali will shine.

Yes!! finally somone who understands. I mean do you think somalis would have been such good entrepeneurs without clan or even survive the war the way we have? As long as we give clan it's own space then it would not be a problem. It could be for example like an elders senatate where such matters can be discussed.theyuusuf143 wrote:Finally I see some one we share the same/similar opinion , when it comes the Importance of Clans in Somali Society.

You should read this

Van Notten makes a strong case that the violence in Somalia is the direct result of the attempt by the international system to force a central government on a culture that was functioning quite well without one for hundreds of years. From this perspective, the entire agenda of forcing nation-state central governments on peoples and regions where such a political structure may not be appropriate is profoundly evil.
If we can put Xeer into a modern context (technological enhance it for contemporary use) i think somali regions will be functioning and having great economic development. This is the source for why Puntland and Somaliland has had a functioning stabile governance for two decades.The Xeer takes it place among such great legal systems of the world as the Roman law, the English common law, the Law Merchant, and the Jewish traditional law (Halacha). It must be extremely old and is believed to have developed in the Horn of Africa. There is no evidence that it developed elsewhere or was greatly influenced by any foreign legal system. The fact that Somali legal terminology is practically devoid of loan words from foreign languages suggests that the Xeer is truly indigenous.

Yup. its not just here its every, idiots attacking our identity left and right to service foreign interests(Xabash,Bantus,arabs and europeans.) . Most of these confused fools think they are actual intellectuals. but all they do is complain 24/7. How about some ideas, solutions, understanding or any talk about prospects. There are tons of somali sucsses stories out there why not talk about that once in a while?. smh!Adali wrote:I was about to say that, remember this forum in full of Ethiopian agents who want manipulate the discourse in favour of their national and foreign affair interest.

Looks like he took a page out of your bookBasra- wrote:Discuss WHAT??? The creator of this thread is insane. You start a subject with just a title?? Is Somaliniimo a Burden for Somali Prosperity: Explain with a further elaboration of your ideas, arguments, and then invite people to counter or support. I am amazed at the idiots who followed with their own understanding of what Somaliniimo & the burden for Somali Prosperity is. Ridiculous.
