^^ Waa sheeko qabiil, Oba. :D

 

These guys are called Shuxuux. They are from Ras Al Khayma (in the UAE) and this is the war cry that their qabiil uses to show other people "reer hebel banu nahay". They also use it in weddings, marti qaad and other places were a clan angle needs to be shown. Ciyaar iyo qaylo waalan maha. Heh.

^^ I don't know who the "thirsty clan" is to make the comparison, Alpha. But these guys are mountain guys. This war cry of theirs makes sense too. Bal imagine you are going to war with them and, as you climb the mountain with your army, you start hearing these loud shouts echoing around the entire mountain? :D

I am sure this war cry had worked for our Arab brothers in the past when the region was a much more violent place. We should respect their culture and stop making fun of their time tested way of life.

The Sayid was wrong about the Arabs. Where his history is disputed amongst Somalis and depends on clan leaning, the Arabs that fought the colonisers at the same time had no such blots in their charecter. ;)

^ I don't know much about the colonial history of the Gulf Arabs, but those in the Lavant were dumb enough to be used and then abused. That is why we have the Palestinian situation now.
