I’m afraid you’re out of your depth when it comes to Somaliland & Somalia affairs. Forgive for saying this, but your ignorance knows no bounds. You’re stuck in time and unfortunately in decline. Your retired ideas do not sway any one with knowledge.

As for this article, there are a number of things that need to be understood before it can be used as an authentic source for the conflict in 1988-1991.

1. The US was the closest ally to the Afweyne regime. At the time this report was being written the USA was supplying and arming Afweyne. They were also invested greatly in the oil exploration in the north. As such, any report

Thug,

indeed, an interesting article. You will notice it was written after Gersony, discusses him on pages 197-98 and disagrees only with the timing of the Government arming the refugees in the camps. The US Congress and the Reagan Administration were working at cross purposes at this time, but 1987 is about the year US aid to the Barre Regime became limited. Sadly, the Cold War was still more of an issue than human rights.

To me, the most significant point about the Gersony report is the degree to which the SNM blended into the civilian population. I can forgive the SNM for not having uniforms, but it seems somewhat disingenuous then to claim the Barre Regime targeted so many civilians. Did you notice Barre also hit the Majertain?

Salah,

Did you know the Brits had separate treaties with each of the clans? Once they were gone, there wasn't any Somaliland; in six days there was Union with the South. The Gersony report makes it clear why Isaaqland is what it is. The SNM was never inclusive of the non-Isaaq clans.

There's a lot more disparity than what you mentioned.Looks to me you just took a quick peruse and selected what little that did no conflict with the US report.
Did you read about the Extra Judicial killings of the Isaq people even before the SNM invaded
The Massacre of Isaq elders in 1984
The Gabiley Massacre
The setting of the Hangash Force who were called the Isaq Exterminators (Dabar goynata Isaq)
The destruction of the water resevours used by Isaq nomads)
These are just a few points and all before there was even an SNM presence inside the boarders of the old SDR

It's funny how a white male from America can even see through the Somaliland facade.
