No, I am not happy with the status quo of Somaliland nor I am happy with status of Somalia.Jugjugwacwac wrote: Let me ask u a question. Are you happy with the status quo of Somaliland and of Somalis in general? If yes, then we disagree. If no, then wouldnt it have been better to go about reforming the government instead of destroying it and the country in the process?
Individuals should not support their clans for sentimental reasons. I recall Djibouti greatest Poet Abwaan Ibrahim Sheikh Suleiman " Ibrahim Gadhle " (Rahimahu Allah) poem Mulaax:Jugjugwacwac wrote:Thanks bro. Ur right, we have extemists on all sides. To think they can't fathom me being isaaq purely because I disagree with them is mind-boggling to say the least. It just goes to show how people can become delusional when they rarely step out of their echo-chambers and circle-jerking sessions.Tanker wrote:Jugjugwacwac
Never accept being bullied into having opinion based on tribalism you made a logical response to 2 decades of human suffering much respect for you only a coward and small minded person will allow others to think for him.... and that includes a lot of darood people too....
I do agree with you too the war to topple him was not worth it. He should quickly and swiftly put down the rebellion.Jugjugwacwac wrote:So we agree more than we disagree then. Siyaad was bad, no doubt. And he should have either given concessions or quickly and swiftly put down the rebellion, with as minimal civilian casualities as possible. Where we differ is, you think that despite our current situation the war to topple him was worth it, while I don't. Doesn't mean i'm a kacaanist or that im pro siyaad barre.LiquidHYDROGEN wrote:@Based. I think I distinctly remember agreeing that Afweyne was not ruthless enough. I also said that he could have avoided the whole war if he simply allowed the North some concessions and liberties. No where did I say that I agreed with him or found him and his policies as anything except abhorrent.
Couldn't say it better.Jugjugwacwac wrote:Self-determination? You're acting like you were under the yolk of a foreign power or something. Bro, before the SNM was created, and many of the Isaaq in the kacaan defected, we were well-represented in Afwayne's regime. This is a fact. Was his government corrupt and ruthless? Yes. But was it worth toppling it and plunging the south into perpetual chaos and anarchy and leaving Somaliland a fledgling nation, struggling to provide the basics for its citizens for decades to come? Not to mention the countless people who perished in the rebellions on all sides and the ugly clan wars that led to neighbour killing neighbour rwanda style, the wounds which are still yet to heal. And don't forget a lost and rudderless diaspora who are just one decade away from social break down levels similar to the african americans, with their single-moms, crime, violence and general degeneracy and lack of class. I personally wouldn't think it was worth it even if Somaliland was flourishing, because I can't help but feel the situation in the south is my plight too, because they're my peopl. But with Somaliland itself having nothing to offer its citizens except a fragile clan mediated peace, poverty, political limbo, predatory politicians and tahriib , leading our youth to die in the high seas, i'm even more convinced that the so called liberation war was in fact responsible for our bondage, placing our destinies squarely in the hands of filthy xabashis and san-gadhuudhi's, who only a couple of decades before would have trembled at the mention of the mighty Somali army. We Isaaqs are savvy and blessed with resources...we could've found another way instead of burning the house down.LeJusticier wrote: Do you understand the concept of self-determination? It's the most important things on earth and I got it full stop.

@LH, that is essentially what I stated. I'm not some apologist for a terribly flawed government, but I do think that the quarter century of anarchy created by the power vacuum is infinitely worse than the old status quo.

"on more than one occasion," waliba, so this affair has been going on without the knowledge of the politburo.
Generalbundesanwalt ximaanjaale LLM will have field-day with this.
And that is?LiquidHYDROGEN wrote:
