The Isaaq is taught always respect and greet your elders. What they say and do is the ultimate gate to Heaven and future success. Every Isaaq is governed by an unwritten Heer constitution which orders them to respect the Walid, the Sultan, the Aqil, the Guurti and eventually the President in that very order. If you disrespect all, you are shined and forbidden to visit any Isaaq town and at this very moment no one has reached that level yet.
THE HAWIYE
The Hawiye is more of individuality where everyone acts solely. They are taught to go get it, to be hustlers, fetch that muufo, hunt down the beeso and kill whoever is on your way no matter young, old, religious or pregnant.
There is no hierarchy or leadership structure...each man is on his own and only the strong survives in the world of the Hawiye.
From the first baby step, the Hawiye is brainwashed and taught that weapons are celebrations and killing makes one a hero.
Two decades later...
They are being trained from very young age
Then they live that dream
They continue to train and brain wash them, guns are in their DNA.
Future Karaan warlord vs future Wardhiigley warlord, the Don King of Hawiye ring battles is very happy about the future as he kicks back in his chair...
The future Sheikh
The Sheikh follower
The future Sheikh killers
THE DAROOD, the Jaberti
The Darood somewhat in between the Isaaq and the Hawiye. On one side they teach the kids to be peaceful, lovers and to respect the elders and if they do they will be rewarded but they also embrace violence and killing those that don't agree with them.
As an anthropologist, after a careful study, that's my founding and that's why Somalis are locked in a three-way disagreement between the Peaceful, the semi-peaceful and the killing machine.
RECOMMENDATIONS TO BEELAHA:
Isaaq kids have good upbringing and good values but their world and opportunities should not be confined to three towns. I consider Somaliland a limited window of opportunity. Their dreams and aspirations should not be hijacked to correct the mistakes of the past generations.
It is good that you have taught them to fix their own homes before fixing others but now its time to teach them to increase their horizon and expand their opportunities. Even birds don't catch their worms in their own nest. They fly else where.
Hawiye kids have great opportunities to excel but the gun culture and killings that they are brought up in, needs to be addressed and all toy importers should be forced to abandon importing toy guns. This only further glorifies the already dangerous Hawiye gun culture.
The Darod kids should not be taught hate for Isaaq and Hawiye. In most Darod households, before alif and baa, most kids are taught hate.
Sincerely
Anthropologist Dr. Hawdian.
