Why are Sade deegaans the only ones defeating Al Shabab?

I am honestly wondering this. The border of Ethiopia with southern Somalia is Gedo, Bakool, Hiiraan, and Galgaduud. If the popular belief is Ethiopia is main cause of success and not self-organization and military/political structure, how come the Sade border is the only border that has held fort against and defeated Al Shabaab even driving into the interior? While Caabudwaaq is the base of Ahlu Sunnah and and main column against Al Shabab expansion in Galgadud, the Gedo group have also seen tremendous success not only coming from the border but on the verge of freeing all their territory in the Gedo region and beyond. Bakool region and former RRA have virtually seen zero success against Al Shabaab and the Hiiraan forces seem unable to pass the common border at Feerfeer.

Certainly logistical help has been supporting influence but this has been provided to all the border resistant groups. It is obvious Beesha Sade is special in this regard.

Its very interesting and bold at them same times. Its great how you highlight this matter and it deserves a great discussion. This matter shows us that which group of Somali (clan) is the most effective in military, manpower and most importantly leadership skills. In Somalia today (18 regions), anything above Mudug has no importance. Hence the problems in Somalia did not reach their let it be Al-Shabaab/Warlords/Ethio invasion/Western manipulation etc. They have it easy the people (clans) above Mudug.

Now lets go to the importance, regions below Mudug. Its vague that no clan has successfully built a military force to fight Al-Shabaab apart from Sade.

Its clever how you mentioned the regions below Mudug that border Ethiopia. (Gedo, Bakool, Hiiraan, Galgaduud) They all share the same conditions and the outcome are different in each of those regions.

Great analysis. Non-Sade people should take notes. (if they need a ally, they know where to seek it.)
