Walal I'm not denying that their aren't problems back home. It is true that if Somalia wasn't in a better state, many of our problems wouldn't exist. Somalia is in bad shape but does that mean we keep quiet because of the civil war?@Samaalic Era Everybody are just as angry as you with what Libyans are doing towards Somalis. The key point here is why are Somalis going to Libya? Is because they are escaping from the violence that is still rampant within Somalia. Your nation won't move forward if you don't admit your mistakes. Somalis ruined their own country due to tribalism, they harmed each other way more than foreigners.
When you mentioned Madhibaan having their own seats. Trust me, the seats are not enough and they are still discriminated in Hargeisa. I know a Madhibaan man who was a doctor, very kind and religious and when he tried to marry an Eidagale girl. It couldn't happen because of his qabiil and he later got beat up badly by Eidagale men. They threaten him not to come back or talk to that girl.
If Somalis stopped harming each other, rebuild their country and progress as a nation then you would not hear Somalis being tortured in Libya or Somalis running a mock in the western world.
Brothers fight but when it is outsiders, it's a different storyIt is a unwritten code. A bit like how blacks can call each other nigga but a white person can't.

Somalia will rise again when our generation change it In'sha'Allah but in the mean time we must respond in whatever way we can. We can't let ajnabis feel emboldened because of our political state
Does anyone mind explaining why the Madhiban/miidgaan are still being discriminated?
I've heard the story about their ancestors eating dead animals but how does that make sense for them to still be seen as lower than other Somalis. For all we know maybe it's lies that someone made against them.
That's truly sad. Something our religion teaches us to confirm something we hear before we spread it. When someone is getting married often the family ask to make sure the person isn't miidgaan. I always say that's stupid since first of all we're not in Somalia so who cares and second nobody chooses their qabil.Madhibaan are discriminated over one person eating a dead carcass that happens to be a myth. It's really bizarre and saddening. It shows how stupid our people really are.
Somalis practise the caste system as if they're Indians.
Islam > Somalinimo and nationalismThey are spreading fitna. Some like @Samaalic Era just need guidance but others are atheists. Why should I hate my brothers and sisters in Libya because some dumb kids who were told not to travel ignored this advice? I am Muslim first.

You are looking at from wrong perspective. Your deen and nation do not cancel each other at.Nationalism is haram. A Muslim in China is my brother and a Somali atheist from my immediate family is my enemy.

They are one and the same
lol @Samaalic Era you would qashin this because the shoe fits. you cant have sympathy for those poor somali migrants if you dont have sympathy for the victims of your war hero
"But... but... Somalis treat minorities the same".
Really? They kidnap them, beat them until bloodied and badly injured, possibly even rape them, and give their victim's families a deadline to pay thousands of dollars they do not have?
Somalis are in its situation today because of Ayrab bootyclappers. If you want to have even an iota of dignity, these people must be eliminated. They are a serious impediment to nation-building and peace. Go tell a Lebanese Muslim or a Georgian Muslim to favour you over their Christian countrymen... you will be laughed out of the room.
I personally do not care since I have my own country but it's time for you people to smarten up.
