Trully unfortunate, if sad.
I must applaud you for once in your life thinking like a true nomad, a son of Somali . Well done, mate.
Just do me a small, tiny favour, please, could we just not ever mention colonial legacy? Not in name, nor in passing! And instead focus upon the Somali peninsula, and whatever political configuration or set-up is agreed upon, be it UAE style, German, US, UK, German etc, so be it.
I personally prefer Ardu Somal / Dhul Somali (yeed). Pure and simple, Somali affairs ALONE!
