Qabilism played an important role in every society since the dawn of mankind. It's no secret that human nature drives man to flock towards his own kind to seek shelter and protection. Some societies have taken it further and seek protection from clans and close relatives from their own extended kin (countrymen). Whether qabilism has its benefits or drawbacks, we all have to admit that it didn't work for Somalis and never will. If the desert dwellers had remained qabilists then they would have never earned the wealth they have today, oil may have saved them 30yrs of pointless savagery and in fighting. Europeans hated each other once and have since then put aside their differences to form a European union that looks out for their best interests. My point being is that this thread is to spread the message that Somalis need to heal and not hate on each other based on qabil or other differences, as the next 50yrs (if we don't get nuked or colonised or raped out of existence) will dictate the future lives of our children and the descendants of the Somali race. We have a chance until the sun rises in the West and sets in the east to get our act together and build Greater Somalia.
Pls do not derail thread and add your opinion on the pros and cons of qabil and maybe on this thread by the time Ramadan comes around we may find a solution for the current problems we face. I leave you with this very interesting clip from Lawrence of Arabia where the clever Englishmen diagnoses the problems arabs and Somalis have in common.
