I didn’t say he has the most, but he’s def up there. Look at the thread he maintains on kicking out HG from dabdamiskaHe doesn’t have the most cuqdad you should read his posts and compare them to other people who support genocide against other Somalis and are grateful that genocide has taken place
Yeah I’ve seen that but it’s within the clan family so ehhhI didn’t say he has the most, but he’s def up there. Look at the thread he maintains on kicking out HG from dabdamiska

Read this exchange between me and @Jungle where I argue in favor of IDPs permanently living in Banadir having the right to vote, and he argues for their displacement and cleansing from Banadir instead. @Jungle wants to take away the right to vote from 1.5 million, mostly D&M, IDPs in order to preserve Hawiye hegemony. Keep in mind the Puntland gave all IDPs from koonfur the right to vote in its elections.

ps. You should not judge MJ by the same metric you judge Hawiye on the question of qabil. We may border each other, but our cultures are fairly different on this topic. MJ have more in common with Harti woqoyie, idoor and Ogaden on the question of qabil rather than Hawiye. Apples and oranges.

How many times have you brought up what I said about those idps sxb? Internally displaced persons from bay and bakool should not and will not be allowed to vote in any elections regarding Banaadir. D&M tax payers & property/land owners should be able to vote. I don't see anything wrong with this and its hardly comparable to the vile stuff said on here is it?
I know he wants to kick IDPout of Xamar I’m against that they have nowhere else to go.
I was pointing out the fact that there are people on here how find the deaths of innocent people funny and that they deserve it.Now I don’t know what you mean by cultures are fairly different on this topic I don’t get what that means
Your input on the Hawiye ethnic group is much appreciated. Most of us including myself have zero Hawiye relatives. We only read the news of the isbaaros and their allergic reactions to the rule of law and don't know much abiut them
You are painfully unfunny to the point it’s laughable
Last thing you listed is why no clan state is getting independence any time soon. SL have ”tried” for 30 years but they don’t have anything to offer to the world that would make their independence worthwhile.
No resource extraction is done in all of somaliweyn. We have only the strategic location but Jabuuti has filled the void for it. No independence by giving away land for military
I remember when @AbdiFreedom said Somalia is held together because nobody wants 5 different begging bowls kkkk. Harsh but true.
Clan conferedation could work if there is agreed taxation on exports, imports and income. Same currency and foreign policy. Also the president and prime ministers are like figureheads. Sharia as the basis of law and we are good to go.
Adeer stay at the generals with the other teens.You are painfully unfunny to the point it’s laughable
don’t adeer me im not falling for it
No resource extraction is a blessing, I believe the best way would be to do something like the UAE.
"The UAE's federal structure includes a Supreme Council (comprising the Rulers of each Emirate), a Council of Ministers and a Federal National Council. Each Emirate is governed by its own Ruler, with its own local government, courts and police forces."
Spoke about a unitary decentralized option being the best choice in a different thread in relation to Yemen and Somalia. You can have a strong unitary centralized government in Somalia while also having some form of decentralization in delegation of local governance in form of provinces and municipalities.
This is what Oman our neighbor has done.
Somalia and Yemen should mimic the decentralized approach of Oman.
Oman's governments structure is divided into a two tier decentralized structure of Governorates and Wilayats , under the Central State. These municipalities/local governments create higher efficiency, legitimacy and inclusion.
Power and Process: Decentralisation in Oman
Before the collapse in the 1990s, there was signs that Somalia was heading in the same direction as there was constant talks and drafting of decentralized options for Somalis since the 1960s:
It would have most likely devolved into this vision, if left uninterrupted. Kacaanka that took power in the 1970s was more geared towards taking back control from the neo-colonialists and revolutionizing policies to benefit the citizens than over-centralizing the state in the long run. The Historical Evolution of the Somali Revolutionary Socialist Party
This discussion and recommendation of decentralization continued in the first 10 years after the collapse until it was curtailed by foreign imperial entities, super imposing their own centralized options.

I read it. The assumptions I'M Lewis is taking in this study is particularly unfounded like ''Uncentralized Somali Legacy'' kulaha, throughout the middle ages 900-1600 large parts of Somalia from west to north to south was governed under a highly centralized and bureaucratic system. And it was in large parts the reason for it's stability and development. Under those unitary governments, they appointed governors and functionaries over different districts and regions.
That legacy of that centralized structure survived amongst the Eastern Harti's that continued to rule most of the Northern-Eastern region after the collapse of other regions in the modern period and can also be seen in the later successful formation of Hobyo sultanate that ruled most of central part of Somalia in late 1800s and early 1900s
Somalis were not structured around only individualized clan units in the years leading up to the colonial era. They were also organized in to city states , who's clan's and populations were of diverse origins and shared power collectively together under a titular leadership and lived in religious agricultural communities called jaamaacad, where clan identity was subordinated to other aspects of belonging, including religious identity and residence. In the mixed agriculture communities between the rivers, too, clanship was just one element of collective identity and social organization and similarly for the Western fertile uplands. As well as being organized around and led under Tariqas (Sufi Orders).
What's ironic also is that the most centralized systems and structures that survived in Somalia post medieval collapse in the 1600-1900s were all in the most nomadic arid regions of Somalia. The most enduring ones to.
It's not difficult to form and maintain a centralized leadership over pastoralists or nomads ( even though a good number of Somalis were also sedentary depending on the location ). All you do is control their wells and grazing grounds and incorporate them into a exchange system. Which is what the central states of the past did.
What impedes Somalia today is a colonial legacy that divived people, historical amnesia, and chronic foreign imperialism and meddling. Not an ''Uncentralized legacy''

.I’ll observe the Politics section it’s quite amusing 
@Jungle @Wonyluvr one of the main reasons why Somalia is unable to come to a common understanding on where to go from here is the unwillingness of those south of Galkacyo to accept qabil as a fundemental building block of Somali politics.
This leads to massive cognitive dissonance. Somalis south of Galkacyo are just as qabil motivated as those north of Galkacyo, but are willing to lie, obfuscate and practice nifaaq rather than admit this.
There is no shame in being for your qabil and working to defeat your enemy. Hawiye and Isaaq are my enemies and I want to defeat them. I will always admit this. Good luck getting anyone south of Galkacyo to be this honest.
