If the only tool in your toolbox is a hammer, all you is a nail. Biixi's reliance on violence is very telling.

MMA, Sxb, I see where you are coming from as an old-timer, but certain situations are hard to avoid. Thanks to HSM's Soomaali heshiis ah, most conflicts are clan driven.

Sensible changes! Let's see if I am reading this right, the number of parties will depend on the number of political organizations that reach or exceed the 5% vote threshold.

Galbeedi, What is the community doing about the likes of Samatar and co. The man is something. His bitter experience in Xamar made him unhinged.

I guess Liibaan is a man of his word. His passion is crazy though.

I like the title Self-rule through Unity.

Stop the pretense of being a state then. You told to yourself lies for 32 years, you actually came to believe your own lies. You forget you were a collection of clans, and any attack on any clan will be viewed as tribal war. Muse made that mistake with SSC. For his own sake and that of his minions, let's hope he does not make the same mistake with GX who will definitely chase him out of town.

The struggle for Self-Governance begins

So, the Blessed Republic came down to this after 32 years of yelling we are the only democratic nation in the Horn.

They have been under the thumb of a cult. As long as they don't go under the thumb of another cult leader, that's fine.

Ethiopia wants complete control, but if something like Berbera can be worked out, that's great.

Muse now has kids trapped in Goocajde doing TikTok videos to appeal to jabhada Gacan Lixaab

Oh the irony and mouthful of cognitive dissonance.

Tell this to weeping Somali mothers in Burco, Hargeisa all to Gabiley. It shows your narrowed-mindedness if you see this as D folks wishing anything on Sland. This is a simple matter of people who want to free themselves from tyranny and won't submit to the madman in Villa Morgan. If there are any wise men among those sitting in Hargeisa (I believe the best passed away), they should advise Muse to leave Goocajade and sit down with HY.

Sxb, Xaaji, you are a slow learner or maybe too arrogant to realize the coming storm. Reer SSC kicked the shaky foundation of an entity led by a man who thinks everything is a nail that needs a hammer. The grievances by reer Awdal will not die and their anger will erupt again. The rightful grudge GX held since 94 is erupting as we speak. Enough with the bravado, and if HA has any intelligent people, they should tell Muse to leave.

You are overselling Muse. The fact is every monumental decision and fight was done by the likes Lixle, Dalmar, and Abdiqaadir Kosar who literally saved the SNM when he assumed the chairmanship. Biixi was a bully who picked on GX when they lost many important men, most of the highly-regarded soldiers in SNA.

Imagine dealing with every sub-clan separately in any given region. I rather see a united Beesha Dhexe that negotiates with the rest of the Somalis on a workable solution, whatever the solution. Somali clan politics is simply difficult and confusing as is.
