Even if he threatened Kenya, where his threats just empty words? Or may be his army and weapons were there for the destruction of the Northern clan. As is the situation today, Cigaal had no power in the 60s when he was the PM. The real power was in the hands of the president and the cabinet consisting almost entirely of southerners. I think after this sad documentary those still singing "aabe Siyaad" have a lot to explain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haatu Posted November 16, 2013 Xaaji xunjuf mararka qaar wuu iska hadlaa. What can these poor people do? They are at the mercy of primitives with no fibre of decency in their person. The oppression was so widespread I could say nearly every family in the area was affected one way or another. My mum remembers that day Mohamed Adow describes from his childhood when everyone was running for their lives. Adoomada came to an old neighbour of my mother's family and told him to go into his hut (he lived in a nomadic aqal). They then sprinkled diesel all over the hut and set a match to it. Amarkii Ilaahey the aqal would not just catch fire. They sprinkled more diesel and still nothing. They then yanked him out, beating him with the bottom of their rifles saying he was a magician (falfalle). After they beat him they made him lie in the middle of the road and rode one of their armoured cars over him. Alla ha u naxariistee he died instantly.

There's no proof but reer Gaarisa say the men were only let go after Siyaad's famous threat "Haddaad 24 sac gudahood kusoo siideyn waaysaan, raggayaga ma idiin soo diraye, dumar baan idiin soo diri". Only Allah know if it's true but that's what the locals claim. As for Cigaal whether he had power or not, he will always be remembered as the man who signed NFD away for ever.

At the end of the day people only pay lip service to Soomaalinimo and have tribal interests at heart so I highly doubt Somaliland fighting Kenya.

Lol that is one of the funniest statements I have read on SOL Prominent politicians of a weak unrecognised Somaliland had the guts to condemn the Ethiopian invasion of Somalia in 2006 even though Ethiopia is our main ally. So the notion of independent strong Somaliland standing up for the rights and dignity of their fellow Somalis in Kenya is not really far fetched.

Did I miss anything Mr. Xunjuf? They were never denied citizenship they were persecuted by the government because of the alleged shifta wars there, they were mistreated abused this is all true but they are still Kenyan they dont have another identity. Somali Kenyans are an integral part of the Kenyan society even addows father believes he is one he speaks their language.

thefuturenow Posted November 16, 2013 Oh, how petty the Sland, PLand, JLand and [insert]-Land debates seem in light of the Somali reality. We are being abused from Kenya to Nepal, from Pretoria to Addis. Get it together people. Stop the divisiveness. Didn't hooyo ever tell you that "far kali fool ma dhaqdo."
