I don't think he is reaching at straws.You’re reaching at straws mate. The vast majority of federal nations put their capitals in a special region.
Malaysia, Australia, India, Ethiopia, United States etc.
I don't think he is reaching at straws.
You are correct that the majority of Federal nations usually designate the capital as special federal territory. His point is that not all Federal nations do that, so Somalia would not be unique if Muqdisho became a FMS.
For example, Berlin is both the capital and one of the 16 constituent states of the Federal Republic of Germany.
If you look at the reasons why those countries chose to designate their capital as part of unique federal territory not belonging to any specific state, I highly doubt you'll find the reason of placating the various ethnicities/groups listed them amongst them. That is rarely the consideration for that.A lot of the countries that have rival groups within their federal system generally put the capital in a “special zone”.
For example, India, Malaysia and Ethiopia are all examples of having historically tense ethnic groups and are all federal states that put their capital in a special area away from squabbles.
Not saying we’re seperate ethnicities but we’ve been fighting each other as if we’re different races so maybe we should take a leaf out of their book.
Don't you know that bending over for the man that poisoned your wells and killed scores of your people, is how you win a war?What kind of alternative revisionist history is this
SSDF surrendered to Siad Barre and were brought on board in 1982 and became hardline Kacaanists. You were no different than a marehan, dhulos, ogaden and other darood. All of you were with Barre until the end and your own clan helped evacuate the kacaan out of xamar

Your telling half truth here. SSDF was reorganized after 1991 with General Mohamed Abshir and Abdullahi Yusuf. Their political ambitions for Somalia came to fruition (making somalia federal). USC turned guns on each other. The only thing they achieved was genocide and destroying our capital.What kind of alternative revisionist history is this

We didn't bend over for nothing. He begged us and tried paying us back. Building a highway to bosaso and a port ain't cheap. Especially when it's being bankrolled by a poor african gov. That's fighting rebels everywhere.Don't you know that bending over for the man that poisoned your wells and killed scores of your people, is how you win a war?

Looks like usc had a lot of good ideas, yet failed to implement any of them. Number 8 says illegally obtained property will be returned to rightful owners. The ones who illegally obtained these properties will be brought in front of court. Yet how many ppl were murdered, buried on their property, and house(s) stolen by usc?Actually the true vision of USC by my abti Ali Wardhigley AUN was a strong Federal Government (NOT the clan federal bullshit with holes like a split Mudug and unaccounted seats for disputed regions and clans like SL, Benadiri etc)

General Aideed AUN took it up a notch and wanted a North and South Federation, watch his Interview with Saeed Naqvi but alas, we have some kind of Federalism today that is a work in progress.
Majeerteenow waa lagu yaqaan, SSDF did not understand f*ck all about Federalism or Regionalism, it was a Marxist project, basically an antagonism to Barre's pro US stance, had the SSDF succeeded in their coup it would have been pointless since the Cold War winners were the Western Block. I have your screenshots of your fears of Federalism and even yourself suggesting to support a Benadir state, wax aad ogtahay maleh this is your own words in 2018 even suggesting a Benadir state to check off HG influence

"he was able to entice the bulk of ssdf fighters to return from Ethiopia and participate in his genocidal wars against the issaq in the north and hawiye in the south "
I never met any humans that lie this much , they need to do a test on the jabartis .
You helped afweyne genocide the issaqs , hawiye and the raxanweyne mr (ssdf) sii soco soosoc defense force .
You laid the smack down on them bro, they lost twice, once when they gave themselves up to Siad Barre after being slaughtered, and when USC in 92 started killing them in Galkacyo after they rejoiced at Barre fleeingWhat kind of alternative revisionist history is this

Federalism is an MJ project, you were just the donkey that they rode to sign it.
