Italian universities have of the best resources on Somalia. Those colonial bastards really did deeply investigate Somalia.

But nowadays (post-2000s), NGOs collect the most detailed information on Somalia.

You don't have to meet some someone in oder, to acknowledge and rate his qualities. I have been following this from afar for a long time, and have to admit that he was amongs the few Somalis out there who refused to subscribe to the ideology of "Qabiil" supremacy. My Allah rest his soul in heaven "Firdowsa" the highest echelon of Paradises. Aamin.

alla ya raxma ! At least 200 hundred people have participated in his funeral. 60% of them flown in from different states, Canada and Kenya.

The guy who flown from Kenya is the kid he brought from Tanzania ( his high school best friend's kid) to the US and who went on to attend MIT and who now works at the World Bank based in Kenya. He also brought this kid's other brother who is now a neurosurgeon in the states. The kid that works at World Bank got on the first plane out of Kenya to attend his funeral.

Who amongst us would sponsor and educate their best friend's kid from another qabiil? :salute:
