This is only for Somaliland people to read regarding the true state of affairs facing your region Colonial-Rebel days-Self declared Indepence and your regions turmoil.
I'll begin the analysis from the british days, your region was nothing like british colonial areas that fared a-lot better then french-dutch-italian colonies. You were a bunch of elders who signed 'separate' treaties with the british that your unified monarch is queen elizabeth. The Warsangeli people were recognized as independent sultanate who's independence was forcefully removed by the 'british crown', the Dhulbahante had no treaty with the British crown. So historically this is the facts.
Plus britain didn't invest in your region beyond the 'meat sector' to support it's true colony in aden yemen. When hamar was colonially developed and inherited a-lot from the Italians and why your region was merged on a union of 'non condition' since your region gained much more but brought in much less. Look at Hargeisa or Berbera 1960s vs Mogadishu, this cannot be lied about or taught fiction stories. Who gained the most? who took the burden? the burden was felt mostly by the south and the gains by the north.
Powersharing mechanism post 1960 to 1969 it was a Majerten man Sharmarke that gave PM to your 'egal' who was disregarded by the irir coalition, if he didn't, your SL project may never of happened becuz it was an egal project. PL investment in him was the true inspiration of your SL, you lacked any real political capital beyond him.
Now let's discuss your rebellion days which you copied the SSDF but u didn't copy their wisdom to end it when Abdillahi Yusuf realized Ethiopia wanted to expand it's borders into Mudug and didn't bring together rebel groups to discuss a post dictator political settlement, interim period of military rule untill civilian rule can happen. Menguistu locked up Abdillahi Yusuf and the SSDF quarreled about Ethiopia agenda for Somalia and disbanded.
Then your rebels fought from civilian quarters using them as sheilds against Siyad Barre who cracked down on them like Abi Ahmed did with Tigray. Siyad Barre was preserving a nation, while your rebels only cared 4 clan interest. Most of your civilians fled to Harshin is also a fact and why when u do petty 'genocide' mass burials u will only find a few bones who were probably darod civilians u killed in hargeisa, just like you do now as your showing what you do now was no different to back then.
Now lets discuss your post self declared independence period. Everyone knows you guys had a civil war between Abdirahman Tuur and Egal, which Egal won and used 'force' following in the spirit of MAO Zedong that 'guns settle politics'. You used violence against Harti community and Awdal. You then used force in your Borama reconciliation holding guns to people heads and declaring it's a peaceful assembly when it was a forced assembly. The wisdom rings true anything with a violent beginning has a violent end. Study any historical or post modern nation with violent roots and their eventual collapse.
The reason is simple, people inside those nations will think violent to power is the only way to rule which will cause your internal dynamics to remain volatile. Even if these type of nations survive they present a nuisance to the region or world(iran, north korea) to deflect from their own volatile internal dynamics.
Finally you argue to Somalis and the world to respect your people decision and aspiration yet you do not respect the decisions and aspiration of unionist(dhulbahante, warsangeli, garhajis, awdal), do your leader not ssee the illogical argument of respect your wishes while you respect noone else.
Finally if Somalia were to separate, it will happen as any separation does, between both stakeholders not 1 stakeholder as the world is a rules based system and Somalia borders are under A.U/U.N charter rights, noone is going to circumvent this becuz of some disgruntled groups as this could lead to the rules based system to collapse and no borders respected and the hordes and disgruntled groups worldwide will use Somaliland as an example for their rebellion. Somaliland secession is purely dangerous one for the world order rules based system. Surely you can see this?
So let's review what has been analyzed.
1. Colonial period
2. Post independence period
3. Post seccession period
4. Your civil war and violent beginnings leading to the ultimate violent endings
5. Your arguments to respect your aspiration while you respect no-one else aspirations in SL
6. The rules based system and how SL is in conflict with it
Please contribute or correct anything where I am wrong(emperical) method please not 'suugo science' methods of just disliking what is being said not fitting your clan narrative. If u can prove something is wrong, I will immediately correct it.
