I read his thesis awhile ago the amount of bias in that piece of paper is just egregious. Stopped supporting his N&N and saw the dude in a different light. It was illuminating.
View Quotes from his thesis
''European colonies naturally favored the tribes that proved their loyalty. These were offered a place in government civil service and law enforcement. These occupations come with a level of privilege and authority that some tribes enjoyed exclusively for years. Additionally, this new opportunity lured many nomads to move into urban areas to seek administrative employment. Most importantly, when European imperialist decided to give up their colonies in Somalia, they rewarded top leadership positions to the tribes and individuals closest to them. For instance, in the Northern colony of British Somaliland, the Isaaq tribe was awarded virtually all of the best jobs for its collaboration with the imperialists. In the South, the Italian colony found similar willingness in two loyal tribes: the Majeerteen of the Darood clan and the Mudulod, sub-clan of the Hawiye. These two southern tribes helped the Italians without reservation. In return, Italian and British colonies enabled these clans to claim some superiority over the other clans in terms of wealth, scholarship for their children in London and Rome, and future government influence in the post-colonial era. Naturally, when the Somali government was formed, most parliamentary seats went to those tribes that had been loyal to the colonial rulers, as they were seen as best suited to stability. Somalia's first president, Adan Abdulle Osman, is a prime example. He was a former civil servant under the Italians as a member of the Mudulod, Hawiye sub-clan. On the other hand, his prime minister, Italian-educated Abdirashid Ali Sharmarke, came from the other favorite tribe, the Majeerteen of the Darood clan. This arrangement did not change until the election of 1968 when the Somali parliament elected Abdirashid Ali Sharmarke as the second president of the country. He selected as his prime minister English-educated Mohamad Ibrahim Egal from the Isaaq clan of former British Somaliland.''
The cuqdad this guy suffers from must be immense. He literally falsified my clan's history. Kulahaa we helped the Italians without reservation.
First to shed Italian blood. Faced the brunt of the Italian forces along with the Biimaal. Had heroes like sh. Daud Culusow, Sh. Axmed Gabyow and the Abubakar Moldhere of Wacdaan who massacred Italians at Lafoole.
We reject them infidels and the dabodhilifs.
One of the most influential leaders among the Wacdaan was the leader of Shaykh Ahmed Haji Mahhadi. He was not Wacdaan but became the sheikh of Wacdaan. He was born in Mogadishu and hailed from the lineage of Mogadishu (Abgal). He had lived there most his life, teaching alongside such renowned Muslim Scholars as Shaykh Sufi and Shaykh Mukhdaar. Like the latter, HE FOUND COEXISTENCE IN A TOWN WHICH HOUSES INFIDELS INTOLERABLE, AND HE CHOSE TO RETIRE TO THE SMALL COASTAL ENCLAVE OF NIMOW, a little south of Mogadishu. There he set up a small jamaaca that attracted several of the local inhabitants. When Nimow was shelled by an Italian warship in retaliation for the Cecchi ambush, AHMED HAJJI fled to Day Suufi ( the heart of Wacdaan territory) where intensified his preaching against infidels. As late as 1907, the acting Italian governor considered him 'THE MOST LISTENED-TO PROPAGANDIST' in this area of Shabelle. Even the Geledi turn to him rather their own sultan for religious counsel. ( Lee V Cassanelli)
"One of the Wacdaan leaders apparently influenced Ahmed Hajji Hassan was Hassan Hussain, Titular head of the largest sub-section of the Wacdaan clan, the Abubakar Moldheere. The Abubakar Moldheere WERE THE MOST NUMEROUS AND HENCE THE MOST POWERFUL SECTION OF THE WACDAAN in the late 19th Century. Hassan Hussein is remembered as one of the FIRST Wacdaan to OPPOSE THE ITALIANS, WARRIORS FROM HIS LINEAGE WERE PROMINENT AMONG THE FORCES THAT ATTACKED CECCHI(The guy who was the highest official in Italian SL, we fuckin murked him) AT LOFOOLE. LIKEWISE, HIS LINEAGE WAS SPOKESMEN FOR THE ABUBAKAR MOLDHEERE, WHO MOST STRENUOUSLY ARGUED THE BLOCKADE OF CARAVAN ROUTES TO MOGADISHU ( Economic sanctions)" (Lee v Cassanell).
Any Mudulood supporting this guy waa delusional. He even tries to discredit our son Aden Cadde who showed the nation how to properly lead a country and yet he praises the likes of MSB.
Even I know that Isaaqs played big role in the Dervish movement.
His Cuqdad for Majeerteen is unmatched the guy single outs MJs and portrays them as the scum of the Somali nation who only looted the gov recourses.
''Their leader, Colonel Abdullahi Yusuf Ahmed, narrowly escaped to Ethiopia before being captured. Notably, all but one of the leaders came from the clan-family Majeerteen Darood (Siad Barre himself was of Darood lineage). The Majeerteen clan had been a fixture in Somali politics before Siad Barre seized power in 1969 and held many prominent positions up to his rule. They had filled the president and prime minister positions during the democratic period of 1960s; additionally, it had dominated high positions in the military and civil service. As soon as Siad Barre took power, the
Majeerteen clan lost all of this. The dictator usurped its place of privilege and importance in the Somali society, and its prominent politicians were incarcerated indefinitely. The attempted overthrow, then, was not a voice of objection to the war so much as an effort to take advantage of the general discontent and reclaim lost significance. Unfortunately, they risked their careers in pursuit of clan primacy. Those who faced the firing squad risked - and lost - their lives as well.''
''There was one very important instigator left unscathed. The surviving leader of the coup, Colonel Ahmed, kept his clan-family's dream at the expense of his nation by acting as an agent and tool of the Ethiopian government in destabilizing his homeland. Somalia's archenemy helped him form the Somali Salvation Democratic Front (SSDF). This new insurgent organization was mostly populated by angry Majeerteen clan members. The execution of the failed coup organizers bestowed a certain martyrdom upon their cause.''
I knew Daaroods have deep running hatred between their subs but this is just unadulterated cuqdad.
