There whole lives where twisted upside down and they had to start fresh in new environments

I wonder if they can restart the college pipeline for Somali hoopers maybe it can start in Nairobi since it has the infrastructure with the NBA Africa league

We should definitely invite them back in and assemble as much of what we can from the past and use it re-construct thing back with a new flare.

It's a good thing we can rebuild things but also reconnect things back to past legacy and history.

Also i liked that article , it records peoples living memories. We need to document and record as much from people that are still alive.

I call it ''Siad Derangement Syndrome'' SDS for short.

It started to click for me when i heared that journalist who interviewed the opposition in the 80s/90s, and he said ''Nacayb Said Barre keliya aay haystaan waxba aay kama dhaafin''

Before that i was thinking maybe they had some legitimate criticisms and greviances, but that blew it open for me that they were just deranged and they hijacked the narrative to pass on that derangement to newer generations. They are soo consumed by resentment that it makes no sense, they cant even look at a fun memory from the past like that athletic performances @Chaseyourdreamzz posted on this thread because they are in the replies frotting at the mouth like some rabid dogs.

SARR ZIAD BARRE IS IZREALI SPY HE KILL 9 GORBILLION SOMALIANS


We were actually a country under him. Nearly 40 years after him we are still celebrating things like the central government taking back a bombed out village for the 50th time. With Ethiopia openly making deals to claim land. If this was the era of Siad Barre would an Abiy type leadership exist? Of course not he was the only president in the Republic that was on the offensive. While today's presidents issue statements and condemnation. Siad Barre was bombing habasha and training seperatists groups as well as flooding Galbeed freedom fighters with arms.
