I notice that Somalis tend to hold onto historical grievances and alleged wrongs against their clan and sub-clan for a long time, sometimes generations...
In contrast, non-Somali groups don't carry cuqdad. The U.S and Japan became allies right after World War 2, despite the U.S nuking Japan twice. Same thing with the Allied Powers and Germany.
German and Israel were allies as far back as the 1950s, despite Germany slaughtering six million Jews. Today many Israelis visit and live in Germany.
In contrast, Somalis have serious cuqdad issues, especially the three main clans (Hawyie, Darood, and Dir-Issaq).
What aspect of Somali culture makes cuqdad such a problem? Addressing this problem may be the key to Somalia's problems.
