Dear Mr. Somalia,

 

If we commend Yusuf for refusing to accept Siyad Barre’s autocracy, we have to hold him accountable for what become of the SSDF too. I have the privilege of sitting with some of the top brass of the SSDF in Zambia, who tearfully told me how the old one would make a decision unilaterally and would not budge or accept anybody’s counsel one he makes up his mind. That dictatorial leadership style killed SSDF.

 

If we also extol him for bravery for rising up against Military dictatorship at a time Siyaad looked eminent and untouchable, we should exorcise him for lack of political leadership and vision to finish the job he started. General Aideed was allegedly brave, but by leading a horde of untrained, angry clansmen into the capital, he allowed mayhem and rape to thrive. A bravery without responsibility is hooliganism, and you can watch the Sopranos and Prison Break if you want that brand of gallantry.

 

I may agree with some of the points you mentioned about the man’s efforts, but efforts are not what count. It is achievements and the record shows he failed miserably. No one is paid for effort, and therefore Yey will be judged by what he left behind not what intended to do, assuming he had good intentions.

I understand your core point that he loved power and that his leadership alienated a lot of people, I know of that personally however his thirst for victory is my admiration for him whether he did it wrong or right, he tried but in the end it's what he left behind you are correct in saying that.

 

I jump to his defence when people want to acknowledge the hypocrisy of distinguishing foreign invaders.

You can EDIT stuff without it saying EDIT at the bottom if it's within a minute time. You wrote 60k.

Abdullahi Yusuf is only admired and praised by his sub-sub-clan and renounced by all other Somali's.

That says enough about his significance as a leader.
