Ana Arabs Come In

[Lightshow]

Well we are pretty similar to ancient Arabs. High amounts of Natufian ancestry check, classic dark skin of ancient Arabs check, clan based society check, Afro Asiatic check, poetry and warrior culture check. We are actually Arabs by all intents and purposes.

A Somali that can fluently speaks Arabic is pretty much Arab.

Anyone who is fluent in Arabic and comes from an Arabized culture (which Somali culture is because of Yemen) is an Arab.

There’s a reason Somalia & Djibouti are in the Arab League

You are still considered a nigga by that khat chewing drug addict and by the world no matter how much you scream you aren’t black this self identity crisis you idiots have is embarrassing

Speak for your self not all of us are Bantu and dhulul like you

 

[Periplus]

Bruh I’ve been saying this for years, Somalis are generally well regarded in the Arab World as a people.

I have also said this. A Somali that speaks Arabic can refer to themselves as Arab if they wish.

Doesn’t mean they’re any less Somali but it’s another badge they can add to their chest.

Because realistically, Somali culture is closer to Yemen than countries like Mauritania or Comoros are.

these ciyaal dont know that because we dont speak arabic we dont contribute to arab media. our politicians generally dont speak arabic too. so its hard for arabs to form opinions on us unless they regularly interact with us on a faily large scale. otherwise they just think we are some poor black arabs to them. basically sudanese-lite.

Honestly, most of the interactions Arabs have with Somalis are decent. In the Middle East, we don’t take part in crime or beg on the streets or involved in controversy.

The Somali community in the Middle East just blend in like the locals. They speak the local dialect and just hustle in the background.

Plus on Arab foreign policy, we don’t really rock the boat on big issues. We are pro-Palestine and take a neutral position on most Arab conflicts.

Where is the Yemenphilia?

All I said is that Somali culture is closer to Yemen than Mauritania or Comoros (other Arab countries) is to Yemen.

That is a fact but if you like I can change it to Oman and my point still stands.

yes change it to oman.

 

[Haragwaafi]

yes change it to oman.

Like what's the difference between Oman and Yemen ? is it cause there's a Daarood clan in Salalah kkk

 

[enda_el]

It’s not like I said he offered me his daughter. All I said was that he instinctually thought I spoke arabic

Beg wallahi u have nothing to do with them

 

[Qeelbax]

This hate/beef you see on the internet is mostly bs. Arabs and Somalis have nothing but mostly good relations with one another. @Cush @Scipio Africanus bring your takes

American Somali and Palestinians not so much

 

[Haragwaafi]

American Somali and Palestinians not so much

What?

 

[Qeelbax]

Not the same tho is it? I have a Australian passport with a extremely Somali surname, and the border patrol officer has the option to speak English just like he is doing with everyone else, yet he choose to converse in Arabic

On the other hand, doesn’t Spain have a lot of madow folk? Maybe they thought you were one of those

Bro looks like he’s from Equatorial Guinea

no. just not too fond of yemenis.

 

[Qeelbax]

What?

Every community beef we have with an Arab in real life, they are always Palestinian

 

[Haragwaafi]
