I don't think they care about your clan.

I think it has to do with Abgal being the largest clan in the city and they need someone with teeth clan wise.

But that isn't the case anymore
 
The title of this thread is erroneous and insulting.

But here is my take, it's part of the beautiful diversity of Somali's, some clan's are predominantly of the war mongering or difficult to deal with types, some are very easy to deal with and work with, this is just in a general sense etc.

Excluding the galmudug Abgaal's, as the Sayid poet said regarding them being the best of neighbours, they leave you alone mostly and mind their own business, don't really get much fitnah or aggro from them, that's their temperament in general, it's easy to make deals with people of that temperament and the learned ones among them.

An example would illustrate this best, 2 years after the ICU, the American's came with a proposal to train troops on both sides of Gaalkacayo, Faroole accepted this offer but Qeybdiid refused repeatedly even after the tuug was offered money, when asked he said "wa gaalo bakhti ah, I don't trust them", he was convinced they wanted to poison them or enslave them and were no good.

I was there at the time and everybody agreed with him to my shock and began to curse them together (I was only shocked due to the climate I was brought up), however with the new generations and the mixing & conditioning things have changed dramatically.

I can only theorise why some are more relaxed and others have a strong aversion to Gaalo historically speaking among Somalis, in the history of Xamar the place was always diverse with different rulers and even empires controlling it, hence the people grew more accepting much like Western Europeans to foreigners, were as the Eastern Europeans that had no such exposure other then negative by the conquering Turks, hate all foreigners by default.

What you say is usually hit or miss. I don't think you could be any further from the truth here.

There is no Somali group with aversion or an inclination towards the Gaalo. I remember the other day when you came after Reer Bari as being gaalo raac, probably one of the most ridiculous accusations I have heard on my time on this site. From first hand experience I can say that probably one of the most well mannered and religious people on the whole Somali Peninsula. Unlike Reer Mudug they will not insult girls for not wearing a jilbaab, they are more friendly. Even your suggestions on somnet that MJs were lackeys for the colonialists are unwarranted since Majerteens civillians were strong supporters Dervish resistance, look at the maps of the extent of their state and the regions it included. Large swathes of MJ country were a part of the Dervish State. Your use the actions of the two Boqors who were tricked when the Italians took advantage of their greed to assassinate our image.

If what you said about Qeybdiid has any truth to it probably comes from PTSD from black hawk down not from some principals he upholds. He was probably afraid his authority would have been challenged. I have no doubt in my mind that a man driven by self-interest like himself would put his people or his nation in jeopardy for his own personal gain. His fighting against the ICU is testament to his character and lack of values.
