Half the problem is we act like an empire, swallowing previous people to forget they're culture, language, and adopt Somali. The longer we do this nonsense, the more they will see us as Conquerers and seek allies from Habesha. Somali people should enpower them to keep they're own identity, language, culture, and tell them form an alliance with us so we protect our Somali and Anfar interest. We should've of done the same with Oromo by promoting OROMIA identity, culture, languauge so they now see us as allies.
But no we always have these types who just want to swallow up the whole region into Somalia and then they wonder why they are sent back to us to fight us cause habesha tell them SOMALI IS LOOKIN TO WIPE YOUR IDENTITY OUT but if u join Habesha we will preserve your identity and culture. We suck in regional relations. All our poor regional policies are now coming to haunt us back with Somalis being targetted and killed daily. Great one who-ever thought of this idea of creating a Somali empire. We should behave like the IRISH do, keep our own land and not interfere in others. That is GOB. Just like PL keeps it's land but never interferes with other tribal regions be it SL/GM/HS.
