Somali waxey kala tahay dad somali asal ah iyo somali la dhaqan is moodey somali ee sidaa ula soco. Simple answer to your senseless claim. Eritrea & Ethiopia look much alike somalis, but never have Arab origin. Do their shape entitles them to claim arab(origin) father?....huh huhu...gax gax gax gax. what a senseless hoax claim!!! Ps: Ha sheegan been oo ha is masabidan sidii hablihii ee u yeel doodahaaga daliil cad. Galbeede First of all, it's Daroods who would love to call Isaaqs for Arab since late 1950s as they looked for a partner to beg Arab grant/charity as HADRAAWI mentioned. So no wonder you still keep saying "it is known among us to claim arab". Well sometime it's your joke, but we are now talking a real serious thing! If you're from Las-Anood surely you don't like this brotherhood between Hargeisa & Borama as you already cleared your stand by siding Puntland to interfere sovereign Somaliland affairs. Isaaqs/Gadubiirse don't understand why some people get mad and panic whenever they re-evaluate their Dir kins and work together. This probably isn't a new subject to rise like politically manipulated (Harti) group, but only refreshing a long disappeared brotherhood of (Dir)ism between Hargeisa, Borama, south somalia & Djibouti. Don't blame shoodhe yare for recognising where he stands today. He said what he has to, like it or not every somali knows his kin much better than 1990. So, Don't pretend like you know Borama people better than us(their brothers) because that is t Idoor WaaDiree Waryaahee muxumud ama malax, miyaadan ogeyn in iminka Darood iska daayeen sheegashadii carabta kolkey ku badbaadi kari waayeen oo ay iminka sheegtaan ethiopian(quti). secondaly, adeer afkaaga ka daa Isaaq hana isbarbar dhigin Isaaq iyo qoladaada waayo Isaaq waa qabiil asal iyo raad ku leh somalinamada dhabta ah laguna yaqaan in ay yihiin dir----irir.

SOMALIA: 'Minority' groups reach consensus SOMALIA: 'Minority' groups reach consensus NAIROBI, 2 August (IRIN) - Two clan-based groups at the Djibouti-hosted Somali National Peace Conference have reached consensus on their nominees for the proposed 225-seat Transitional National Assembly. The Dir and the Alliance group (formerly known as "minorities") handed in lists of their nominees on Tuesday, after two weeks of political haggling. The Dir have been allocated 44 seats as one of the four main clan groupings. It comprises three northern Somali sub-clans - the Issak, Gadabursi and the Issa - and a cluster of southern sub-clans known as the "southern Dir". The Dir of northwestern Somalia, encompassing the self-declared state of Somaliland, have been given 22 seats, with the rest divided out between the Gadabursi and the smaller clans. The Allied group have shared out their 24 seats among very diverse representatives, including craftsmen, Bantu-speaking farmers and merchants of Arab and Persian origin. An arbitration committee established to help break the deadlock over the last two weeks, is reported to be continuing its work with the other major Somali clans: the Darod, the Hawiye and the Digil-Mirifle. RRA leader pushes for 'due recognition' All text copyright (c) UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs 1999-2000.] Jijiga Region ------------------ Without going into detail about all the clans in Somali Galbed - it is sufficient to say that if we divided Somali Galbed into 4 areas we will find that each area is heterogenous and consists of groups who have lived with each other for centuries For the supporters of the ONLF - I ask of them a task; draw a circle around Jijiga and list the number of tribes that live in this area - allow the circle to have 60 miles radius. Let me answer that one for you. In the northern and eastern parts a traveller would find the Habr Awal Dir(Bah Gob, Jibril Abokr, etc.) and the Gadabursi [Samarone Dir} - both these tribes also live in the area I call Waqoyi (I include Borama and Burao in my definition). But these tribes do not support the ONLF; the Ishaq use to be under the SNM [Somali National Movement] and the Gadabursi had their own 'liberation front' - both groups were on different sides in the civil war (Said Barre regime) - but these differences have been put aside, and the certainly now live peacefully with each other as part of the new Somali-land Republic. If we travel a little further around Jijiga region,we find the settled Oromo speakers - the Jarso, Babile, etc. who inhabit a significant area. Now although they speak Oromo, the have a great deal of Somali blood [just look at their tribal names - e.g. Warra Bursuk (= people of Bursuk Dir; or Warra Geri (= people of Geri Darod) etc] - thus this group although heterogenous now speaks Oromo and are generally cultivators. This brings them into disputes with the neighbouring Somali clans, especially the Ogadeni clans. I cannot see these calns [Jarso, Babile, etc] joining the ONLF or any other military organistaion based on clans. Then as we travel south we have the Ania and Ala Oromo who inhabit vast areas; then we cross the Irrer river and we find first the Malingur {Ogadeni Darod} who in generally have tended to raid the Ala and Ania Oromo. Then we have another groups called the Hawiya, which consists of the Karanleh and Gungundabe branches. The latter tribes are identical to the Hawiya trbes of southern Somalia. And everyone knows that at this moment in time, the Hawiya and Darod are currently involved in a power struggle over Somalia [see Said Barre regime - Ogaden - Marehan - alliance and the affects on Inter-clan relationships]. As we pass southwards we come across the Aulihan, and then across the Ganale we find more Hawiya clans - the Dagodia, Garre, Ajuran, etc.. Now with the Ogaden clans, they inhabit the areas from the Malingur regions south of Jijiga to the Galadi in the east where the Makahil Ogadenis borders the Marehan [Darod Somalis]. But if we analize the area in the west and south we find that things are not clear cut. With the Malingur, their neighbours are - the Hawiya Gungundabe and Ania Oromo to the west; the Babile [Somali-Abo] to the north; in the north east the Malingur border with the Habr Awal Ishaq (along the Fafan rivers region); and then finally in the east we have borders with other Ogadeni clans such as the Rer Ugas Koshin, Rer Ali, Rer Harun, etc. Thus separating these clans under the banner of ONLF or SNM or SALF or any other clan based military organisation would result in another "Bosnia". Thus let me ask who are we separating from; The Babile, Jarso, Ania, Arussi, Ala, Hawiya, Ogaden, Geri, Abbaskul, Gadabursi, Ishaq, Bursuk, etc are all Muslim, they all speak either Oromo or Somali or both [also we have the Adari and Argobba groups who have their own language) - but how can we separate from each other when for centuries we have mixed with each other. So my conclusion is we need less borders, and more local rule or local goverment. A form of government that is localised, and a form of law that applies to that specific region. I will discuss this point later in this article. Another mysterious clan that is increasingly appearing in the list of Neo-Dir clans which is called Suures( alternatively Sure) also inhabits in the Shaygoosha and all over the Haud Kenya [NFD, and northern regions] --------------------------------------------------- The northern regions of Kenya, from Lamu to lake Turkana, are inhabited by nomadic clans; manily : 1) Somali Harti and Ogaden in the south; i.e all the areas south of Wajir, and up to the coast where the Somali speaking Aweera [Boni] tribes dwell. 2) North of Wajir, and to the west, we have numerous Hawiya [Dir] clans, namley the Ajuran, Dagodia, Garre, and some others. 3) Surrounding these clans we have the Borana clans [Warday, Dir] - these clans are closely related to the Somalis, but the main religion of the Borana and Orma here is "Waq" worship. Some of these Oromo clans have adopted Islam, but over-all most Oromo nomads in this region worship "Waq" 4) The Rendille - a tribe that inhabits a large area of northern Kenya - they speak a Somali language; and strickly speaking they are Somali, but they do not adhere to Islam - they worship "Waq". But from the genealogy stand-point they are direct descendants of "Soomale". 5) Next we have Samburi nomads, and Turkana nomads. 6) The Gabbra Oromos, who in fact are more Somali than Oromo - but most vestiges of Islam are absent among them - there are some Somali tribes who live among this group - they are found in both Kenya and Southern Ethiopia. 7) Scattered Somalis - these groups of Muslim Somalis scattered deep inside south west Ethiopia- as far as the Sudan/Ethiopia border has been neglected by the so-called Nationalists -[mainly because Nationalists are usually concerned only with their own specific clan]. But remnants of Muslim Somali tribes are found among the south-western Karayu Borana, and even beyond -as far as the southern lakes of Turkana andChamo. [look up these lakes on a map and see how far west these places are]. There are also Somali groups deep inside Arussi, and as far west as the Abaya lake region in central Ethiopia. The point I am trying to make here is simple; the distribution of Somalis and Oromos tells us that separating these two ethnic groups or nations, will be very difficult, if not imposible. There are even Somalis in Eritrea [see Hawakil islands on a map - which is a Somali and Afar island]. The same can be said for other groups in Ethiopia - in Tigre we have settled Oromo clans - the Azebo and Raya both Muslim. Also there are Oromo groups in North-west Ethiopia, both Muslim and Chrisitian; and add to this the numerous Cushitic speaking tribes which are scattered all over the Horn - each with their own culture and language - even 60 miles from Addis Ababa you can find Somali nomads grazing their herd side by side with the Afar. Conclusion The Distribution of Clans and Tribes in The Horn --------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract: THE ETHIOPIAN SOMALI POLITICAL PARTIES ETHIOPIAN SOMALI DEMOCRATIC LEAGUE The ESDL was set up in February 1994 by merging some dozen Somali political and clan groups, including DAL (Democratic Action League) led by Mohamed Shek Ibrahim, representing Ethiopian Issas Dir; EGDO (Ethiopian Gaboyye Democratic Organization), founded by Ahmed Abdi Jeeh; ESDM (Ethiopian Somali Democratic Movement), close to the SNM (Somali National Movement) of Somaliland and very divided; GLF (Gurgura Liberation Front) led by Abdelasis Ahmed(Dir); HDP (Horiyal Democratic Party), from the WSLF (Western Somali Liberation Front), led by Abdi Ismail and representing the Gadabursi; the IGLF (Issa and Gurgura Liberation Front), headed by Riyaale Ahmed, which, since a split in 1991, only defends Issa interests (essentially the control of the Djibouti-Ethiopian railway line). The pro-government ESDL which hope to become part of the EPRDF is headed by current Transport minister Abdulmejid Hussein (Issa Habar Awal). It has 76 of the 139 seats in the Regional Council and 15 of the Somali Region's 23 seats in the House of Peoples' Representatives, as well as the two seats for the autonomous city of Dire Dawa. Though it has little support among the Ogaden, the ESDL is backed by the northern clans, the Issaq, Dir (Issa, Gadabursi, Gurgure) and the non-Ogaden Darod (Bartire, Yabare, Mejertein, Dhulbahante). Some southern Hawiye/Dir clans (Garre, Digoodiya,Gadsan,Bajimal,F.Muhumad,andGuuras) also support the ESDL. In January 1997, the president of the ESDL said an accord had been reached with the ONLF (Ogaden National Liberation Front, in fact the movement's so-called internal faction) to form a joint movement against the Moslem fundamentalists of Al-Itihad Al-Islam. Let me give you an example of how futile it is. According to the drafted national charter, each of the Two major Qabiils,( Daroord, hawiye) and the coalition groups( Dir(1), and Digil and Mirefleh)got 44 seats out of 225. That is about 20% of the total. What this mean, (Forget the highly contested posts, such as presidency and Ambasodorial post(2)) for instance, is Darood should have 20% set aside for every public postion, from driver and policeman to the head of ministery. And oh yeah, Darood should have to agree among themselves how many marehan or majerteen drivers or who will be the next director general of Wasaardda caafimaadka, which could only be filled by darood according to the predetermined charter. What a nightmere.!! Ina Geeleh had to opprotunity to steer away from the pitfall of Qabbil, yet he headed with full speed into the abyss. All indications are he panicked and reverted to qabiil system, after he realized the envitable failure of the outcome . But, he has only himself and his mentor, David Stephen to blame. The confernce in Djibouti should never have been billed as 1) the last ditch effort and 2) estabalshing fully functional Somali government with merely 2000 of self invited people. Never bite more than you can chew. It should have been only a fact finding and buliding block for future negotiations. Now that he had conored himself, he has no choice but to carry on the charade as long as he could, even if it means into next year, which really isn't that far fetched. Footnote 1) Could somone expalin what Dir is? Does it mean Samaron, Issa, Isaq and Dir of South has common lineage, or is it mambo jumbo political exploit. If the case is latter doesn't mean that creating more confusion. 2)Rumor has it the most sought after post is Ambasodor. i guess that says a lot of the participants. These idiots want to exploit the somalis from the comfort of the distance. Yeah, why not be in Rome or Riyadh and by supported by the old lady suffering in qoryoley or Buurhakabo. Carrabay. From: carra...@my-deja.com Date: 2000/08/08 Tolkeen oo la Qabsaday 2000 The history of the great port city of Merka sultanate does sure belongs to the Honorable Dir sub-clan of Biyomaals as they were the only powerful opponent to the late Italian colonialism. Now they are fully controll of their homeland and collaporated with their understandable brothers of Salbalaar Alliance as they are SSNM faction. The state Mayor & Governer goes to them, they collect taxes and fully dominant of the port. Simply nothing comes into the town from the outside world without paying their shares to them. I witness what I'm saying after my visit late April this year in Somalia. For your Information I'm not Biyomaal . Since your freedom is denied you have rigth to regain but never ever call Merka one of your land as it is the land of your Kingdoms and Sultanates of Biyomaal. You're the one whose land were distroyed, dismissed and faced diminishment of assets. Regards Kalafo anaa Islale xagaan Dir baa lagu sheegay ee la tab dheh Cabdow The Hawiya and the associated Rer Bare in Kallafo district The Hawiya and associated Rer Bare in Kallafo wereda are probably the prototype peasant community in the Shabelle Valley on the Ethiopian side of the border. Their social composition is distinct from that of recently settled Somali farming clans which still retain the pervasive kinship-organised political culture. These farming communities in Kallafo district are composed of an association made of two diverse social groups who show distinct physical characteristics. One section of this association, the Rer Bare, have Bantu features similar to those of the minority farming communities in southern Somalia, while the other section are actually sedentarised, and mainly Hawiya groups. The mixed Hawiya and Rer Bare agricultural groups are segmented like the Somali social clans. Each farming associated mixed segment functions as an independent unit in relation to similar cultivating units and also in opposition to the predominantly powerful pastoral Somali clans. Nevertheless, the unifying forces that claim common ancestors and ties to a fixed territory have not produced any significant intermingling between the mixed Hawiya and Rer Bare groups. The institution of marriage maintains this social distinction, for Somalis do not allow intermarriage with their Bantu allies who have more pronounced African features. The Hawiya and associated Rer Bare farming groups distinguish themselves into two social categories, known in Somali as bah iyo boqor. This literally translates to "subjects" and "kings". This clear distinction which falls along ethnic lines defines the differentiated hierarchical status of the Somalis (mainly Hawiya) and the Rer Bare division. The latter are classified as "subjects" or "commoners", while the Somali are acknowledged as "aristocrats" or the "ruling group". Thus, it is no wonder that many of the ancestors of the Rer Bare belong to the Hawiya "aristocrats". Another idiom, hair texture, is also commonly used to differentiate between the two associated settled groups. The "noble" Somalis are known as those with the soft hair (jileyc), while their Rer Bare associates are described as those with thick hair (jareer) Each of these two associated groups is further sub-divided into three important sections that are further segmented into small lineages. Except two sub-divisions of the Badbedan, Ali Mad and Dagine, who are largely composed of Rer Bare, these mixed settled communities usually consist of a mixture of mainly Hawiya and Rer Bare. Because of internal discord in the past, the Ali Mad and Dagine seem to have formed independent and exclusive Rer Bare groups. The Bajimal contains a large number of Dir, while Rer Gedow, Rer Ise, and Gasar contain a large number of Hawiya groups, most importantly the Ajuran. It is important to bear in mind that ethnic labelling in the socially mixed farming communities of Gode zone, and particularly in Kallafo district, is very sensitive. It is also very flexible. The primarily pastoral groups in the zone tend to despise these settled agricultural groups, who themselves despise nomads. Although the Rer Bare generally acknowledge the "aristocratic" status of the Hawiya, they also tend to assert their independence as a separate entity and demand equality with their Somali associates. From: carra Date: 2000/08/08 Isaaqow anagu Dirnimaan dooranay COPY OF AN OPEN LETTER TO THE SECRETARY GENERAL OF THE UNITED NATIONS: AWDAL REPUBLIC DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE Proud to be the direct descendants of the Awdal (Adel) empire inhabitants, we are happy to announce that from now on we will revive our civilization and bring it back to the track from which it was derailed by the foreign forces. The Awdal Republic that will soon emerge will be democratic, compassionate and civilized. Certaintly when we achieve our goal, gone will be the days when the Awdalians were the naked needles that sewed other people's clothes; gone will be the days when our destiny was in unfriendly hands and gone will be the days when we believed blindly in Somali nationalism. We believe strongly that a nation is a nation when the basic right of every individual is guaranteed but when the state in whose bosom the individual is supposed to feel secure is turned into a clannish spear to tear the flesh of the former rival clans, then it becomes the responsibility of every group to protect its citizens. Awdalians are no exceptions. By breaching the terms of the treaties with the Awdalians, the British derailed our state and played poker with our territory. The remaining parts of Awdal joined voluntarily to Somalia on 1st July 1960. The only fruits of independence became a nightmare: the loss of sovereignty, denial of basic rights of the individual, naked nepotism, intentional underdevelopment by taxing the people without ever spending a penny for the Awdalian welfare. The sandy beaches of Mogadishu sucked and absorbed that revenue. " We cann't fill the bag whose bottom lies at Mogadishu and whose rim touches Loyi'ado - a distance of two thousand kilometers-!", an Awdalian complained once. Awdal became the true stepchild of Somalia. A single project was not carried out in Awdal since independence. The virtual nonexistence of any infrastructure in Awdal, its neglected landscape that was denuded of both flora and fauna, and the abject poverty of its citizens speaks poetically for the kind of union that we were duped into. In addition, the Awdalian carried the brunt of the wars against the dictatorial regimes of ex-Ethiopia. As a result the ex-regime's troops shelled, bombed and strafed all towns and villages in Awdal. On 31st January 1984, the Mengistu planes killed in twenty seconds eighty-four civilians, including thirty-five children, at Borama. While all this was going on, most Somalis were ignorant of the plight of these people and no one reported their continuous suffereng. Moreover, the Awdalians shared with the rest of the country the brutal oppression of dictator Said Barre. It goes down in history that the first innocent civilian killed by Barre's firing squads in Hargiesa in 1970 was from Awdal. On top of all these calmities, the SNM, spearheading an entire division of Mengistu's troops, slaughtered five hundred fifty innocent people in Borama, Dila and Zeila on February 4th, 1991. And when the SNM had occupied, with the "generous" assistance of these troops and had inherited the ammunation dumps in the north of somalia, the first step they took was a deliberate clan-cleansing of the non-Isack clans from their homes at Gebiley, Hargeisa, Arabsiyo, Eiragavo and Ainabo. To humilate further the clans in the north, they hijacked their elders and took them first to Harar (Ethiopia) in April 1991 and later to Burao where they were intimidated to sign a "compulsary declaration of independence" that has been concocted directly by "Mengistu Haila Miriam". Two ex-Ethiopian generals, violating directly the sovereignty of the Somali state, were directing that so-called conference at Burao. Thus, by carrying out these repugnant deeds that are contrary to whatever values or culture we shared as Somlis since the millennium, the SNM dealt a mortal blow to any bonds of brotherhood and sisterhood we shared. Now, if Somalia disintegrates, the Awdalians, who has been the victims of the Somali nationalism, cannot be blamed. History is our testimony that we have persevered in spite of all kinds of oppression and that we have striven to keep Somalia together but that earned us only scron and a threat to our very survival. We can't be aprt of a nation guided by the whims of crazy clannish zealots; nor shall we be part of a nation kept together by coercion, and we will never accept again to be the underdogs waiting for the offal. We understand fully that the decisions we have taken are not light but God has not ordained that we become the guardians of the Somali nation. after seeing half a million of its people starved to death and millions of others obliged to go through all kinds of humiliation, Somalia is not the same any more. Therefore, by solemnly declaring our independence, we are confident that the Somali people will support us for they understand fully the conditions and circumstances that abliged us to undertake this historic decision. Henceforth, we are the Awdal Republic - the heart of the DIR clan (GADABOURSI and ISSA) - and our boundaries are those of the 19th century Awdal. Signed by the people of Awdal Republic.
