A djiboutian told me this alsoI don't really think it's an arabization, but rather Djiboutians themselves doing this. I remember a super famous Arab YouTuber went to visit Djibouti and a Somali told him that even if a Yemeni just came yesterday, they will consider them a Djiboutian. Go to 8:07 in the video and listen.
This is nothing short of pathetic.I grew up in Middle East. Most believe we’re another Arab speaking dark skinned country like Sudan. No one forced u to join the Arab league.
Plus, from my observation, it’s nothing malicious.
Not trying to be disrespectful but the two guides he had on his trip are coons. They’re telling this ajnabi that he’s eating Yemeni food and he asks them what language they’re speaking when they’re ordering food and they say English, Arabic and Somali when they’re clearly speaking Somali.
Modern Westernized Somalis hate Arabs for various reasons that extremely dubious. They act as if Arabs traded their ancestors as slaves, this is due them identifying as Black so they feel like Arabs enslaved them too second are hypocrites and gaalo in hiding in the Somali community who associate Arab with Islam, old school Somali were never pro Arab or anti Arab they didn’t care about them which shows so much confidence and classWell what is this obsession with what Somalis think of Arabs? Who cares? Imo there is an agenda to get Somalia to go to war with the Houthies. This is the only explanation for this divide and conquer. I never heard Somalis talk about Arabs like this in the 90s. So its some agenda and I think that is the plan.
There is also a push to train Somalis to fight the Houthies. They will lift the weapons embargo of Somali and they have been focusing on building an US military base for this reason. Imo they will cause the Sunni/Shia rift and cause Somalia to go to war. I think Kenyans along with Americans/Saudis are behind this. This much focus on a small country is suspicious. Possibly Ethiopians might be behind it too. Something doesnt make sense with this Somali hate.
