I agree with you. When people here about unity they things its unity between North and South. But in reality the main unity we need to be talking about is unity between all Somali clans. We have Somalis using foreign countries against another Somali just because of the competitiveness between themselves. They have forgotten that we should not compete with each other but with the world.Methylamine wrote:The common rhetoric among Somalis both on SNet and in real life is that Somaliland is trying to divide the Somali nation, when in fact the Somali nation has already been divided. You have clans that are willing to collaborate with shisheeye in order to spite a rival clan. Just look at our neighbours Ethiopia and Kenya. They have hundreds of clans and ethnic groups and multiple religions coexisting side by side. That's why they're so powerful (relative to other African nations) and that's why they've been able to bully Somali people. There needs to be reconciliation among ALL clans and a proposed roadmap to rebuild the country needs to be drawn up not by the international community, but by Somalis themselves. If that's fruitful, perhaps Somalis from Djibouti all the way to Garissa will be under one flag. Until that ever happens, Somaliland is doing what it can to benefit it's people.
Also yes all Somalis need to reconcile and put behind all the trouble's and feud they had between themselves. The most powerful thing in the world is unity. The more united a couple are the better the relationship, the more united a family the better the childrens upbringing and the more united a nation the better for the countries development and peace.
