the biggest mistake in somali history

Yes we are hamites but the hamites and the semites are both of afro-asiatic root. The semitic scripts have their origin in the hamitic phoenicia.Thus, we had the right and the osmanya should have been the official somali alphabet.
Both the levant and all the arabian peninsula had once a similar hamito-samito inscriptions. the nabataean(ismailites) script has been similar to that of the phoenicians, even during the islmic era it was still known as al khad al musnad/al himyari/al sabai( the sabaean script) its not from the habasha, they just had their own as a semitc clan.
Imagin if the particularly horn brothers had a similar inscriptions we would have been demonstrably one horn nation.
