We have zero ships and we are celebrating Turkish occupation forces docking in our land like we are beggars. Ask yourself why Turks did some fake training for our air force and navy but we still have zero planes and zero warships.

3% is ridiculously low. The old Somali Democratic republic census said bantus were 5% . If we consider the whole of Somalia including SL I'd say 10% Bantu is more accurate. Somali bantus are Somali citizens , I have no issue with them.

Once they build the base the only way to kick them out is war, I hope the people of Somaliland can see how this is a stupid idea

Arabic as a language is very important to learn as long as Somali is not neglected. Being bilingual or trilingual is always an advantage. Obviously our primary language is af soomaali and should be the only language used by the government, learning Arabic as a second or third language is fine

Doesn't matter. Arabness is language, ancestry and culture. If you have one of these three you are Arab. We don't speak Arabic as a native language, we don't have any significant Arab ancestry with a few exceptions of mixed people like the benadiri, our culture may have some similarities with...

It's Haram to treat immigrants in a bad and degrading way. Totally Haram

I'm open to any immigrant who is willing to come to Somalia to build the country, learn the language and contribute to the economy. As a diaspora somali I would be a hypocrite if I stood against immigrants.

Safer Somalia means Making a huge effort. Why would politicians make an effort when they get free money from the west?

What makes you think a disfunctuonal government like ours will be able to implement this ?

Yes. I agree but somalis in the north had contacts with Habeshas and Yemenis as archeological evidence confirms so it may be likely that some proto somalis or ancestors of Northern somalis may have adopted Ethiopian gods

Not exactly. While Somali territories were probably not included officially there was an Ethiopian military presence. Ethiopians had a governor in Jigjiga in the late 1800s and Sayyid Mohamed Abdulle Hassan actually took the city and surrounding areas from the ethiopians which means that...

Yes. I mean geography didn't play in our favor so we just moved from the dry North to settle in better lands. You are right we are the ethnicity with the largest land because by nature we explore and conquer.

Even if he did it has nothing to do with OP's question. I have zero issues admitting our Afar cousins had a presence in Zeila. The point is that the claim that Zeila was an afar city is preposterous and silly. If that was true it would mean there was a population replacement al over Awdal in...

We were also cucked by geography but we are Somalis so we survived anyway. Thank God cause he made Somali alhamdulilah

Allah said that he sent prophets to every nation in order to call to the one God. Who knows maybe Waaq religion before Islam was revealed by Allah subhana wa ta'ala to a Somali prophet before prophet Muhammad (saws) was given the final message. I believe it's likely. Waaq religion only survives...

It's proven that Ethiopians before Christianity had similar or identical Gods to Yemen. Maybe Some somalis also worshiped the dame deities

Ogaden was taken by Menelik. In the late 1800s Menelik attacked Harar , Somalis cane ti help Hararis because they knew they were the next target of Ethiopian expansion. Unfortunately they didn't succeed and Habashis expanded all over what is now Hararghe Ethiopia (Harar area + Ogaden region). In...

Poor afars. I feel for them. We have a two countries of our own, three if you count somaliland while afars are rules by somalis in Djibouti and ruled by Habeshas in Ethiopia and Eritrea. Since they have nothing some of them rely on fake BS and invent stories

Brothers, the tweet has few views and likes. We Somalis should stop commenting any BS we se online about us, they do it to make us react and spread their anti Somali views.

This doesn't prove anything other than your ignorance. Djibouti and Zeila were both under nominal ottoman vassalage, one Afar governor doesn't prove Zeila was an Afar city.
