Yasima Posted October 16, 2003 This subject is most argued topic in SOL - So i came out with something none u (who argue about this) ever came out with before, which is: Somaliland is a Somali's land - that means - the land belongs to somalis - PERIOD...... I know this quote must be hard to some of u people to accept but Said Barre was once asked (in the seventies, during the Ogaaden conflict) by a journalist from the West: "Where does the Somali's land end??" His answer was Explicit: "As far as the Camels can go" Now i ask u this is Somaliland a Somali's Land - YES or NO My Opinion on this, is simple; Where ever Somalis are majority of the Inhabitants is a Somali's land. please give me u'r opinions on this - without resulting to verball attacks or abuse to other people - Kaabish!!!

Saxardiid Posted October 16, 2003 well somaliland is Somali's land as used to be called British Somaliland, Italian Somaliland, French Somaliland and so on. i don't agree though what siad barre's said about somali's land. i head one's that somali camel where seen in Eritrea and Sudan do you suggest we have claim their? having said that the name of Somaliland is the brand name of one part of Somalia which is northern part. best wishes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liqaye Posted October 17, 2003 Hey yasima it is great to see that other people are seeing the inconsitencies of the separatist argument. But to tell you the truth i wish this would make iit clearer for them, but it probably wont. :eek: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibtilo Posted October 17, 2003 Keep talking to ease your worries of Somaliland seperating, ITs already gone my friend. May I suggest that you guys try and focus on the meeting thats going on to make peace in our Somalia, and forget about issues that dont concern you. Somaliland this Somaliland that, get a life, better yet a hobby. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liqaye Posted October 18, 2003 Who ever believes that somaliland has seperated has an amazing ability to decieve and delude them selves, but having read your previous posts Ibtilo, i see that comes particularly easily for you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yasima Posted October 18, 2003 Thanks to u guys who managed to stay on topic! Ibtilo - u haven't answer the question - perhaps this will make it easier for you: Are you a Somali? yes or no? as long as NW of Somalia is called a Somaliland it will remain Part of the Lands of the Somalis. & do u agreed with the statement above? if u don't agree with it please explain u'r reasoning.

Yasima Posted October 27, 2003 Poll Results: Somaliland is a SOMALI'S Land!!!! (10 votes.) is Somaliland a Somalis Land? Choose 1 Yes 80% (8) No 20% (2) Close This Window i guess CAT got u'r tongue!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wind talker Posted October 27, 2003 The name has 'Somali' in it right? So how is this a question? My parents was married in Hargeisa, although I don't hail from those regions nor support Somaliland's claim to independence. But whether they're indepedent or stay with the rest of Somalia, I know that it's "dhul Soomaaliyeed." So, don't hate. Peace. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
