What do y’all think? I feel like the majority of them think that we identify as arab simply for being part of the arab league, I’ve personally only seen a very small portion of Somalis claim to be arab while on the flip side I’ve seen many Arabs claim that we’re arab

Most Somalis have a distaste for Arabs, unfortunately some of us think being Arab is something special; and they conflate religion with the race.

Yeah some of them do claim us but you have to correct them and say I ain't no fuggin ayrabbbb.

But some of them do not claim us and call Somalis abeed.
 
I still don't get why Somalia is part of the Arab league..

Saudi Arabia gave Siad Bare 200 million dollars to start the Ogaden war. Somali nationalism was also heavily influenced by Egyptian nationalism. Moreover, African nations were also suspicious of Somali nationalism because it was irredentist in nature, meaning Somalis wanted to rearrange African colonial ,therefore joining the Jamaacatual Carab was a political move.

According to genetic studies, Somalis are the most divergent ethnic group in Ethiopia after the Nilotes. They don't share the Omotic and Yemenite blood with the rest of Ethiopians.
