It would be hilarious if Somalia only gets mentioned in the Ethiopia video as a country they love and nobody says they hate it.

Meanwhile in the Kenya and Yemen videos, Somalia has been name dropped in the hate it category.
 
Some of them are Swahili-like though, certainly that chubby guy with the soft voice that said he liked America.

The other ones are mostly extremely dark Arabians.
I noticed the one with Swahili affinity. The rest looked heterogeneous, yet with a distinct characteristic of the area.

Socotra doesn’t belong to us, claiming it is ahistoric.

It is inhabited by Semitic people similar to the Mehri people. It has been part of Yemen since the Middle Ages at least.

The only way Somalia can take Socotra is if they evict all the indigenous residents, which is a war crime.

It hasn't really belonged to Yemen historically, as far as I know. If I'm not mistaken, it's mostly been independent. The island, historically speaking, is worthless. It was only ever good for things like fishing and pasture. Why on Earth would Geeljires move from Somaliweyn to a smaller, poorer Somaliweyn to do the same things they do on Somaliweyn? Especially considering that the group of Somalis taken to seafaring were usually townspeople who'd abandoned their past pastoral and farmer way of life for fishing and merchantry. Logic would point to going to places like Yemen, Oman and Southeastern Africa instead which we know they did. Even Yemenis barely colonized the island until the early modern era with most of its inhabitants being the native Soqotri who seem to have migrated there well over a millennia ago. Nowadays the island is useful for tourism and just an overall strategic maritime placement but it's otherwise not much.

The island, in my opinion is the most likely residence of the Dajjal. The fact that the inhabitants used to be Christians in the early middle ages, the proximity to the Arabian peninsular and that they speak Arabic.

Not surprising. Some will also say Somalia in Saudi Arabia or in UAE or Lebanon or wherever of countries they don't like. It's hilarious because Somalis will mostly say Ayrab nations if they're asked which country the like. So embarassing.

Dajjal is Persian though and resides somewhere in Northern Iran
