Yeah, I'm Daud Garxajis.
Man sha Allah. Gob gob dhashay.

My all time fav Ciidan gale is Col. Ibrahim Koodbuur AUN

I was listening to that fellow he broke prison from. He said Ibrahim was watching two movies, The Great scape and the Wild geese on that night before the birjeex ops. Funny stuff. They got the tactics from the films

So i'm assuming Daud Garxajis = Ciidgale?

and Siciid Garxajis = HY ?
Yes
Daud Ismail and Siciid Ismail

Garxajis is nick name for Ismail sh. isxaaq

Habar Yonis is nick name because our mother Geri Aba Yonis hence Habar Yonis.

Ciidan Gale get their name for being great warrior clan. For centuries along with Arab and H yonis, they fought off invaders and conquered other clans.

Also Ciidangale are our traditional House of Sultan not just for Garxajis but all isaaq.

The tip of the spear. It don’t get Better than Ciidangsle.

Guys the war was initially between Cigaal and Tuur, therefore between HA and HY. What I don't understand is why did HJ enter the beef? I am assuming HY did not attack their regions, as Berbera was occupied before the Burco wars broke out.

The HA refused to hand over the Berbera port taxes to Tuurs government, so if his government was to survive he had to attack Berbera and take over the port. When he gave the order to move on Berbera, the HJ removed their clansmen from his army. It was at this point that it became clear that HA and HJ had conspired against Tuurs government, and it became Garxajis vs maryo-alool. This is what ive read on somnet from X.playa.

Taking in xplaya side of the story isn't something I would take literal.

I'm the wrong person to ask but all I'm gonna say is come to your own conclusions
X. Playa is very knowledgeable about Somali poetry, clan history and politics, but he also doesn't like certain clans, so I know his version of events may be skewed as a result.

Yes I do remember reading that the HA sabotaged him by not allowing his regime to administer the Berbera port. I do understand that HJ did not want to attack Berbera, that's reasonable because it would turn into clan warfare. However when Cigaal was elected and HY returned the favour by making sure his regime did not operate in HY soil, were the HJ eager to help Cigaal? Or did something happen that made HJ pick up the arms?

The war between Cigaal and Tuur started in Hargeisa. Ciidagales told Cigaal the airport wont be administered by his regime just like the HA told Tuur the port will stay under their supervision. Lol tit for tat at its finest.
