Ahmet Ali Çelikten[1][2][3] also known as Arap Ahmet Ali[2] or İzmirli Ahmet Ali[1] (born Izmirli Ali oghlu Ahmed, 1883 – 1969) was the world's first black military pilot in aviation history,[4] and one of only two known black combat pilots in World War I, the other being Eugene Jacques Bullard. His grandparents had moved from Somaliland (modern Somalia) to Basra, in what is now Iraq.[4][5]

he is not somali if his father is not somali. a thousand year chain of untainted blood will be broken. we must find out his tribe. this is causing me issues.

@Alpha. Women pass on more DNA to their children than men, as all Mitochondrial DNA comes from them. He is more Somali than someone who has only a Somali father.

Wikipedia what can I say everybody gets to write on it. "Somaliland modern day Somalia" we know Somalilanders ain't writing that :D More like from Somaliland full stop.Haters!

 

On another note back home we did know of a couple of families that actually traced back there ancestry to Basra Iraq, could be a coincidence this man decided to relocate their too or not.

I also heard that the self-proclaimed Sayid had mystical powers, he could float on water and teleport. I also heard this pilot was actually not Somali but Japanese-Somali from the great Samurai clans of Nagasaki. I also heard Abdulahi Yusuf and his clan like to claim everybody and everything. Hear-say It is indeed very funny.

Stop getting your panties in a bunch just because it says Somaliland, there were many Somaliland, you picked a colonial name, live with it. We don't know who he was, we know he's Somali and that's that.
