How Somalia handled famine under Barre


People don't comprehend just how defining this was.

And he deviated the surplus funds that was meant to finance more development projects to save and aid his people

In stark contrast to Haile Sellasie and the Ethiopian government who pretty much ignored the famine

In reality he did have his positive and negatives like most leaders, but what vindicates him the most is post 91 to now, their is no positives, were choosing between one incompetent vs another and much time lost and nothing to show for it. Infact some say they fear things slipping back to the 91 theatre(an absence of a state). So we need to be realistic their is no positives coming let's at least select the least worst and slowing climb out of this hellish situation.

When Puntite queen is given information things may slip back to a 91 zoo status and a total absence of a state.

Somali government and officials of Siyaad barre tried to be efficient and smart with the little resources it had, and that was visible with the way they handled this famine and Western Somalia's war logistics.

Most of the positives things were aided by the civil servants and ministers who weren’t Kacaanists but general patriot Somalis. Somalia was breaking down badly way before 1991 and you can’t blame the evil “Hutus” and “Idoors” for Barre stupid nepotist cronies in the 80s. The guy who got Somalia the Soviet gravy train was a Habar Jeclo guy who administered Las Anod.

Civil servant and ministers appointed by whom? And how they weren't kacaanist if they were implementing kacaanist policies? How the qabiil of that guy have to do with him kacaanist or not, does his qabiil nullify kacaanist tendencies in him despite working in kacaanist government not only that but also playing a role in getting Soviets projects to Somalia?
 
He was a dictator who inherited a united Somalia and ended up becoming a coward clan leader that was chased by few USC ragtags. He’s mostly remembered for that famous USC chase known as “Xadka iyo Xawaaraha”. Good riddance!

Said Barre didn't face USC only he face the majority of somalia.

And the one who kicked him out end up destroying xamar and killing each other.

Quite heroes I see.

Bit rich since u fled with him recognising him as your dawlad in the process. He was like yeah I know I'm ur leader child or why u flee with me and have no govt for nearly half a century?

He fled, u fled, 30 years u can't even create 5% of what siyad did, that's evidence, that's not something u can just deflect with empty ina igaare words.

Ministers don't set national vision to end goals, the path n routes, potential obstacles n work around, and time line. The Minister just then work on organising, governance, and delivery side and their performance is judged on their outputs vs time. Siyad wasn't a bottom to top kinda guys consulting for ideas(ungifted visionaries) but was top to bottom.

great famine 1975 majority of the people getting resettled were Ogaden.
Somali Galbeed war 1977 again majority of inhabitants of Somali galbeed were Ogaden which lead to more Ogaden refugees into Somalia.
Darwiish propaganda again leader of Darwiish ina Abdille Hassan was romanticed as a hero, he too was Ogaden.
MSB mother Ogaden.

do you guys see a link here ? none of this was rational behaviour.
 
Compare this to modern day Somalia where there are IDPs everywhere in Somalia just rotting away while being exploits by ngos. And also droughts and famines occuring when we have 2 rivers.

The issues in Somalia are not natural but they are done by mismanagement of the country. This shows the difference between a government and no government.

Majority of ogaden are somalized oromos which is why no Sane somali would do what siyaad barre did for you. I am just explaining the reason why he did it is because his Mother was ogaden so he had love for somali abos.

Now there is nothing wrong with oromos i am not using them as a diss but I Hope that ogaden and oromo reunite once again.

Nothing ragtag about USC sxb. Caydiid and his wing using multiple hawiye clans invaded gedo whilst chasing him. Your minister juxa puts out sob stories of people that did the dash along with afweyne. We never took part in none of that alhamdullilah waxeena ee dadka nagu haystaan dad kale waxood maba rabnee

Many of these qabilists are mentally unstable. What I find jarring is that these people are diaspora too.

OG are not Somalized oromos are you genuinely dumb. I’m not even OG but this is insanity.
