you guys seriously need to give up the fake Somaliland dream, you stand the chance of becoming a major player in real time politics and possibly the co-leaders of one of the most strategic regions in the world. but you will need to get a significant ally.

consider your options.

Ogaden...Cagdheer are OK but not too smart
Habar Gidir...unstable and violently explosive if triggered
Marexan..noble friends during Adal empire, enemies during the Kacaan era
Dhulbahante..enemies during the Darwiish era and currently enemies
Abgaal.. Donkeys with the intelligence of doctors and professors
i would say Raxanweyn but you guys wont understand each other
Majerteen.. have you ever watched "The One" film with Jet Lee? well that is how MJs function

remember all of these guys, even the Donkey, will attack and take over Somaliland once Somalia is stable

who do you consider the closest possible ally ?

Non of them Somaliland is here to stay ,





If we would consider a partner like we did in the past it would be majeerteen , The most Productive Jebertis.
Or perhaps Mudulood the dominant force of the south , all the others are insignificant.
Dhulbahante wa dameer aan saranahay dhuusadisu maxay iga taraysa
habargedir a strong Clan Laakin politicaly sa uma furfurna
Ogaden a Noble clan How ever Iyaga geela uun baanu isku fahana.
Merexaanka

Isaaq don't need an alliance sxb, we are confident in our ability.

THEY`VE ALREADY GOT ALLIES(PIMPS REALLY),THE AMHARA AND TIGRINA.

THEY ALWAYS DO WELL WHEN THEY`RE ALLIED WITH GAALO,ALTHOUGH AN UNFORTUNATE BY PRODUCT IS VENEREAL DISEASES.

SYPHILLIS AND GONORRHEA IN THE 1930S HARGEISA,HIV/AIDS 1990S.

We are in the business of making friends , we have already defeated our perceived enemy
If original dervish reacts in such a way , it is more telling of him and his political stand {which he seems to imply is shared by his clansmen } than anything else .
This is the internet , anybody can say or become whatever he wants , but the reality on the ground is different . For example when it comes to the dhulbahante , my own uncles , we NEED them as much as they need us , that's the reality .
Coming back to the original post , WE ARE NOT INTERESTED in ruling anybody . Our collective ego doesn't sit on that point , we know where we've been , where we are , and kinda have an objective as to where we wanna take it .
We also KNOW our limitations .
Let me give you all an example , if I may
Why do I curse the shit out of everybody that pisses me off on a tribal basis ?
Because I know THAT is my only leverage as far as getting people back in line . Does it always work ? ONLY and mainly with other Isaaqs , why ? Because we have something in common that we cherish , other clanmsen will step in , weigh in ..ultimately the RIGHT course of action will prevail .
My mistake has been to try to the same tactic with non Isaaq , specially daarood .
With the exception of Hyperactive , may Allah continue to watch over him and Xamud , each time THOSE WHO WERE SUPPOSED TO BRING BACK SOME SENSE TO THIER COUSIN , joined in the fight
We can't deal with people like that !!!!! ,<-- that is sadly the modus Op of the majority of that somali block .

May Allah help president Sheikh shariif of Somalia , if people of the region cannot do it themselves NOBODY can !
No1 / Let them compromise , TELL your OWN clanmen what their mistake is ...swallow your ego and pride for the benefit of all ... everything else will come as easy as can possibly be imagined. The most NOBLE of stands in QABIL poltics is when you watch over and look after your OWN , as they don't fuck up ! For the story , I have been put in jail in Somaliland for reasons still very hard for me to define in clear terms , but having to do with succumbing to HIERARCHY . After having cussed the shit of {ahun} the late Ina Cigaal and hated him , I am grateful for it TODAY ! I in some sense took a right turn where Godane took a wrong one
Where the elders are weak and not given respect as long as they do their job , then nimcada Ilaah baa ka baxsata !
Al shabaab take notice , you will continue to die despised and outcasted , that is very clear to me !

YOU ARE RIGHT WHEN YOU SAY, " WE NEED YOU AS MUCH AS YOU NEED US".

HOWEVER,I WOULD EXTEND THAT FURTHER,AND SAY,"ALL SOMALI`S NEED EACH OTHER,IN ORDER TO HAVE A PRODUCTIVE FUTURE"

THIS IS MY MAJOR PROBLEM WITH "SOMALILAND",THE ATTEMPTED BREAKUP OF MY BELOVED REP SOMALIA.

WE ALL KNOW THAT "SOMALILAND" IS GOING NOWHERE,SO WHY PURSUE A PATH THAT IS FUTILE?

WHAT IS THE POINT OF MAKING WAR WITH US,WHEN AT THE END OF HE DAY,WE WILL BOTH STILL BE JOINED TOGETHER.

NOTHING POSITIVE WILL BE ACHIEVED EXCEPT THE IMPOVERISHMENT OF THE PEOPLE,NEW ROUNDS OF KILLINGS AND INCREASED BITTERNESS/RECRIMINATIONS.
