Ismahaan Posted October 17, 2009 Hi nomads, I have a question that's been bugging me for a while. :confused: Do we have patriotic citizens? :rolleyes: I ask this question here because I think there is lack of patriotic people in our country. If not then why are we fighting and hurting each other constantly? Why can’t we Somali people band together and do something about the problems facing our homeland? We have betrayed our dignity and wasted our legacy. The whole country has been stolen by reckless warlords and insane fundamentalists, whose best interest lies in undermining the stability of a national unity government. As a matter of fact the reckless warlords or glorified gangsters are major factors that contributed to these issues affecting our nation today, but there are also silent Somali citizens who are responsible for the nation’s failure. These are the ones who support the insurgent groups (e.g. all-fundamentalists, all-war lords, all-president, all-pm, all-militia etc). The question is, whose interests and rights are these silent Somali citizens protecting and who will benefit from this endless wail? Can’t these people see what is happening? Don't they care about their county and nation’s dignity? Last but not least- what's the difference between war criminals and those supporting them? :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nuune Posted October 17, 2009 Your last question yaa ISMAHAAN, there is no difference between criminals and who supports them, all same to me anyway. The silent Somalis, or the I don't care one's, they are lost I think. Yes, we do have patriotic Somalis, I am one of them, and you are one of them too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UZTAAD Posted October 17, 2009 in my view there many somali patriots but we are lacking leadership. somalia needs visionary ,Charismatic & strong leader who can unite the people and the put the country first. it take a great leadership to get the country out of the civil war.

Haatu Posted October 17, 2009 Ismahaan if u look at the bottom of this post, at where I'm From, it should tell you how Patriotic i am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NASSIR Posted October 17, 2009 Hatu, reer Gaarisa are extremely patriotic, judging from those I have seen. Ismahan, three things might strengthen our patriotism; we need to have constant vigilance towards the ill-designs of Somalia's enemies, particularly Ethiopia, and Kenya. We need Justice and we need a unified leadership. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haatu Posted October 17, 2009 Nassir seriously, bal share garee what you've seen. PS: Not to mention to highlight atrocities against Somalis in NFD. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cabdow Posted October 17, 2009 I think majority of us are patriotic! But the problem with us is that, most of the time we wait or depend on somebody else to sort out our problems. Call it a lack of self convidence if you may! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grasshopper Posted October 18, 2009 maybe we're more loyal to our bloodlines and tribes than we are to the State (whose borders are pretty arbitrary most of the time, especially in Africa's case..) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kool_Kat Posted October 18, 2009 We have a whole lot of patriotic citizens...Cyber patriotics that is! :rolleyes: Dad badan baa buuxa 'alla wadankeygiyoo' 'eeboow wadankii' iyo wax la mid ah maantoo dhan gura, yet fail to do little or nothing (most likely nothing) to better the very country eey ubaroortaan day in and day out online! If that makes one patriotic, shoot, qalin iyo buug soo qaado, gacantana yeey ku daalin... Horaa loo yiri 'af waakan maay laki aami?'...Soomaali dhan, or badankood, afkeey ka booteeyaan (well farahana ku dar, kuwa online ku baroorto ), laakiin at the end of the day sariirtoodey tartiib u hurdaan...Waa dhif iyo qaliil inaad aragto dad wadankooda u ordaya, hanoqoto iney hey'ado lashaqeeyaan, hanoqoto iney lacag udiraan dadka aan iyaga waxba u eheen oo xerooyinka ku baaba'san, hanoqoto ineey iyaga ineey noloshoodu horumar gaarsiiyaan si ey biri wadan kii wax ugu qabtaan, ama hanoqoto iney ku fal jiraan siduu wadankii isku badalilahaa, iyo waxii kaloo la mid ahba... The above qoraal is based on dadkaan arkay oo patriotic isku sheega ah! Other than that, maan arag wax kale! Wadankeyga waanjeclahay uun looguma noqdo patriotic... :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
