Fiqikhayre Posted February 1, 2007 I agree brother but this guys/countries send large and official delegations to attend this important meeting/conference! Atleast it the AU's headquarters they should acknowledge this countries delegations by welcoming them by hoisting their flags! But the streets of Addis were decorated only by AU member states flags and that I find to be a good thing but the headquarters should hoist the flags of all the participiant parties!

It felt good for all of us esp when the news of its desecration is still reeling in our mind. The Somali flag is indeed the only remaining symbol for the pride and identity of the Somali people.

SomaliThinker Posted February 1, 2007 People put to much stock into flags, what i put stock in is results, man made results, the flag is only the symbol of the results of man made work. In the case of somalia, like th somali flag burning it is and was a man made distruction of nation that has brought somalia to this fact. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The star symbol is unity. It might be subject to different interpretations. You can say it stands for territorial unification, unity by the people to end clan feuds and hostility, or unity in the sense of democratic principles and patriotism. Our late PM Egal signed the Arusha Memorandum which gave away NFD, one of the reasons Bare hardly pursued this dream. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
