SayidSomal Posted June 20, 2011 - To unite Somalis? Watching the daily rants of SOL and Panorama's Land of Anarchy - I wonder what will it take for Somalis to wake up and see the reality as Somalis we are living in - more importantly for them to ACT?? I am hopeful - but for how long? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SayidSomal Posted June 20, 2011 Individuals and Groups operate under certain conditions that allow them to do what they do with impunity in the current Somali arena - one can not simple change the situation by changing the individuals or the groups. We need to change the conditions that allow them to exist. How can we as individuals best contribute to changing the condition of ourselves and those that surround us?

Taleexi Posted June 20, 2011 The fruition of your feeling is not only a function of time rather among many other factors. Many Somalis are hopeful as you are but their resilience has to yet pay them handsomely. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SayidSomal Posted June 20, 2011 ^Thanks for the kind words Taleexi. Maskaxda ii dhis'so - bal ii sheeg in aanan keligay ahayn. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aaliyyah Posted June 20, 2011 in my opinion those who want to separate should have the full right to separate..maxay nagala maqnaanayayaan, sadexdooda magaladood meshay rabaan hala adaan... as for the rest of us who believe in somaliwayn, midnimo, sinaan, wax wada qabsasho, iyo horumar. we should find a way for the rest of somali regions to unite, maintain peace, and reach progress. salaam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacaylbaro Posted June 20, 2011 it takes 20 years now to unite Xamar and still not possible .................. so tell me about ALL Somalis then Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Che -Guevara Posted June 20, 2011 Let's be honest with each other-everyone is sitting on the fence and not moving a finger yet we have audacity to ask what will it take to unite all Somalis. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Che -Guevara Posted June 20, 2011 looool...being honest though, before Sayid comes down with his bakoorad, I wasn't excluding from the fence sitters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xaaji Xunjuf Posted June 20, 2011 My question is are somalis even interested in being united? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Archdemos Posted June 21, 2011 Put simply, god forbid it may take a successful Al Shabab terror plot on the streets of a western capital for the world to engage the disaster that is Somalia once and for all. Even then the prospects for peace would not be good, as we are some of the most hardheaded people on this planet. Just imagine if we weren’t muslims but rather idol worshippers. We would hold on to those believes like our lives depended on it. I sadly predict another decade of anarchy. I just hope my children will know a peaceful Somalia like my parents did, however brief it was. I like your question XX. Just like in SOL we will continue to bicker amongst ourselves for eternity. Then again I’m a cynic beyond believe.:eek: whatever happens i just hope we get rid of these vile Shabab cowards. They have taken the Somali name to a new low. Cowards beyond believe.

Som@li Posted June 21, 2011 Despite the anarchy , famine, and destruction, Somalis have not yet shown they are ready to move on, and bring peace. Sometimes I think the situations got so worse, it has reached a point of no return, where most pple with capacity to rebuild, change the country have disappeared, Somalia can only be helped , and shaped by those who these problems touch everyday, those who are back home, and unless they move and do something to get out of the mess, it will be like this. Weli sheeko ma dhowa! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alpha Blondy Posted June 21, 2011 somali unity is and has always been a myth. interest is key. so in order to unite somalis, we must consider what shared interests we have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NGONGE Posted June 21, 2011 Contrary to what many here are arguing I actually believe that it does not take much to unite Somalis. The majority of you (and I exclude myself wa man raxima rabi) are sheep. You united behind the Courts, you united behind Sharif and a large number are now lamenting the loss of Farmajo. You are an emotional lot that fall for and follow personalities. So, in order to unite you all, you just need a competent personality to lead you all. Find yourself a competent man and build him a personality ban ku idin odhan laha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alpha Blondy Posted June 21, 2011 ^ exactly whats wrong with so-called leaders..... keep you're ears to the ground and listen to the people.... they just want peace, shelter and security. all else is peripheral. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
