Pay your goddamn taxes, lets move forward, you can still be clannist and nationalist at the same time, don't stand in the way of progress.
support your clan, not calool ushaqaysteyaal who pretend to hold your clan interest at heart while pocket all your qaraan money and buying villas in foreign lands.

Khalid Ali, do you think after the talks with El Presidente Farmaajo, the leader of Jeeganland will set free political prisoners ? if Biixi continues this way, we will have to form an SNM and fight him.

Re: At one point Somalia had the strongest military per capita in Africa and Middle East
One of the great disasters of the siad barre dictatorship was spending a huge proportion of Somalia's income on the military, some estimates I've heard were in the 60% percentagesAdali wrote: Sun Feb 18, 2018 7:08 am Pay your goddamn taxes, lets move forward, you can still be clannist and nationalist at the same time, don't stand in the way of progress.

This meant that there was less and less money available to invest in education, health and infrastructure. During the later years before the collapse, resources got more and more scarce adding to the already tense political atmosphere. People often ignorant of the circumstances and the price Somalia paid for the large and unnecessary military it had, boast of how military strong Somalia use to be, but forget how terrible the economy was and how Somalia was lagging behind in other developmental indicators.
If Somalia's military had received proper and high quality training, they would have deposed siad barre before it was too late. At least they would have risen to the occasion in 1991 in averting civil war by taking control of the situation.

You have also imprisoned the president of Saaxil state and 40 members of his administration, this is the biggest arrest Biixi administration has done, he is on the verge of becoming a dictator even to his own Isaac clan.

Re: At one point Somalia had the strongest military per capita in Africa and Middle East
the military union even at its worst was far better than what was before it and what came after it, today you are in the west, but do you care about the hundreds of thousands of your cousins who are jobless, and who risk their lives to be in your position. Bro lets be fair, hogaan mareexaan baa loo baahan yahay, its the only leader somalis will unite under, so dhinac ka raaca, iidoor when they are nationalist are the best kind of somalis, even better than cagdheer who were part of MOD.SuldaanOfSanaag wrote: Sun Feb 18, 2018 4:47 pmyes a union that got hijacked by militery junta.Adali wrote: Sun Feb 18, 2018 2:51 pm![]()

Do you blame TPLF when Liyuu attack you or do you blame cagdheer ? the same you cannot blame Kacaan when Cagdheer footsoldiers attack you, Kacaan had its hands full governing foreign and domestic issues.SuldaanOfSanaag wrote: Sun Feb 18, 2018 5:52 pmThere's a marxaan president now let's see what he will do.

All your SNM veterans have said it themselves, there were many people who hated Isaaq in the Kacaan government and who also fought against the Kacaan, but Mareexaan were the best leaders and the only reliable group when it came to Somalinimo.
It is no different today, Farmaajo has alot 5th column in his administration, you cannot stamp them out but its obvious that the Kacaan had no direct beef with Isaac, only isla weynid, but no cuqdad or vendetta against Isaac, we don't even live near you.

Afweyne's entire foreign policy was based on taking his bowl to the super powers of the time to beg for military aid using Duriyada's strategically located port of Berbera.

The aid was in exchange for access to Berbera, you had nothing of value to the super-powers of the time other than Duriyada's strategic location.

Siyaad Barre rotated the uses of Somali port every few years inorder to develop all the ports, Somalia had a small population but the largest coastline in Africa, for this reason, collaboration with foreign powers was used and abused to the max, Mogadishu, Kismaayo, Bosaso and Berbera were all build under the kacaan by using this strategy of limiting usage of one port, to force foreign allies to invest and build other ports so they can use them.
The jaahil is the gaal madow who thinks Siyaad Barre was dependent on Berbera

there is a reason why the soviet hated Siyaad Barre, he took elements from their ideology to suit his needs but never submitted to them, infact he used soviet to increase our power in Africa.
You cannot even come close to the brain capacity of Rer Diini.
