Yeah Qabil alliances tell the real story here. That '91 alliance between Isaaq SNM and Ciise USP was the enemy of my enemy is my friend type of arrangement. So i think using the Dir card now when they brutally fought each other back then is a bit rich too.
If you've ever seen this video of a Somali Youtuber who went to Zaylac, right at the end he says something like "Ciise people watch and enjoy the beauty of your lands", and all the comments were Gadabursi and Ciise kids fighting over Zaylac. This is despite the "kumbaya" state of affairs some are pushing that Dir are some united bloc unlike the rest of Somalis.
Hilarious more blood was shed in Habro wars 1994-1997. I even know a HY girl who lost relatives in Berbera and till this day holds grudges for it. So don't come with that fake block being pushed.
