Absolutely thought provoking and A relic of a bygone erabut i am mostly jaded by our adoption of war as a national past time.

Do you think that if the civil war never happened, Somalia wouldn't be as muslim?

We went from one extreme to another. From filthy liberalism lifestyle to brainwashed folks blowing up their fellow countrymen.

Most people prefer the state in which Somalia is in today if that means no pre-war decadent western lifestyle. These same people are hypocrites because they live among that decadent western lifestyle (and even partake in it) in the west.

Yes, suicide bombings and conflict and low IQ warlords acting like politicians in suits over a woman without a hijab dancing. Sick extremist people. The fact that local people dance and have fun in secrecy proves they want things to loosen up.

We went from one extreme to another. From filthy liberalism lifestyle to brainwashed folks blowing up their fellow countrymen.

More like going from authoritarian, tribal, moderately religious people to Wahabi fanatics thriving in anarchy.

 

[Kanan]

Somalis were not religious back than, check out your parents family albums lots of pictures of women without hijaab or jilbaab. We had few secular socialists reformist but the vast majority especially in urban areas were not overly religious.

Only xamar would have experienced this. If siyaad wasn't overthrown hargeisa and burco will be dust and Hartisheikh the new dadaab. Also all the qaxootis will be isaaq.
