The '77 Ogaden War was a mistake. We won't make that mistake again!

Who are the prime movers against J/L and what are their reasons......what are their objectives.

Perhaps Sahal can answer this as he's got an inside track on hagite politics.

If Siad Barre defeated Cuba in Jijiga battle, Somalia would have created Greater Somalia.

As if cuba was the only country fighting Somalia.

As if cuba was the only country fighting Somalia.

Ethiopian armed forces were in complete disarray when the Cubans showed up, and Cubans made up 90% of the 18000 communist troops.

There was little opposition to Somali forces.
Apart from 50,000 new conscripts with less than a month of training. We would have gone through them like a knife through butter.

luis should be banned

Why should I be banned?

I have never insulted anyone here. I only give my opinion about 1977 war.

If you dont agree with my opinion about 1977 war, you can show sources that prove I am wrong and I am a liar. Could you do it?

Couldn’t agree more. How many times have I said on this forum it was a dumb stupid decision. Before that MSB Gov had a excellent relationship with the North, Central and South region. After that war we were bankrupt and disaster struck. I would’ve been like My reer abti love yall but fck no I will not destroy the rest of Somalia. Again dumb, stupid action to go to war by the last Gov.

The greatest failure of the Guulwade. I'm haunted by it.

NGM. You got crossed up. Don’t hate:
