The dangerous play of oromosation and anti Somali sentiments ( Daarood Jabarti Al Hadrami) Concerned About Dir, Oromo, and Oromization of Somali Pennisula- This Daaroods are the Same Imbeciles that brought Tigray Ethiopian Army in Mogadishu And Who Were Celebrating in Garowe to Kismayu, and Jigjiga.

The Same people who destroyed the whole Somali history and made our ancient nation into Arabs who migrated from different parts of Arabia at different times starting from 1500 to 1700. These Jabartis are taking about the integrity of Somalinimo

Please Join the Discussion and read the irrational Daarood

D-Block is code name Used by Daaroods online forums

(Daarood Comment on Dir Conference) We all heard of Dir conference held in Addis Ababa capital of Ethiopia. It was not a innocent meeting of Dir people but something more sinister! For a long time writers and intellectuals tried to construct the argument as a native (Dir) vs non native (Daarood Who are Arabs). It happened in the civil war when all clans combined on a single 'invader' clan.

(Daarood Comment on Dir)Many have criticised the war against Ethiopia a war not for Somalinimo but a war to unite the invader clan.We have many folks who display that sentiment often hardcore Somalilanders and Central/Southern Somalis but all other clan that view the Daarood-Block as an invading clan and not native to Africa but who is powerful and marginalises all other clans.They see that Somalinimo as a social construct of the D-Block. 1991 was the year of the natives when Oromo's celebrated the butchering of that clan that us keeping Somalia together under Somalinimo.Oromo's played a leading intellectual role in constructing that idea.That failed to eradicate the 'invaders' the same with Somaliland's secession which they supported too.

(Daarood Comment on Dir) These clans aligning themselves to Oromo are running away from what they perceive as D-Block hegemony and subjugation.This of course was the rhetoric in 1991. We see this as continuation of that. Their goals are to rid the Daarood-Block from the entire Horn of Africa.

(Oromo) World they see 'native' Dirs as their extension who was duped by their mischievous Daarod-Block invader in-laws to identify as Somali.

The invader vs native plays a huge role in Oromo intellectualism.

This was adopted in 1991 'crush/expel the invader' purge of 'natives' vs D-Block.

Many of her people committed atrocities on the basis and belief they were doing a good deed by purging invaders out of the country. (Poor Daarood Insecurity From 1991 Hawiye atrocities)The rationale was that these D-Blocks aren't native or Somali therefore their killing and expulsion is justified. The battle cry was put them back on boats and send them back. This is what united them!

World that is true that thought pattern of native vs invader failed in 1991.

Oromo's moved to Mogadishu and conducted their business from there.

(Daarood Comment)Now they want to claim all Dir clans as lost Oromos not only the clans you mentioned.Some Dir are playing along because their hatred of D-Block is greater than Oromo.

We Somalis don't have any secrets the siding with Oromo is twofold.

If you look it from the Oromo viewpoint it is to push eastwards to get to the coast. Being that large and landlocked isn't good for them.

(Daarood Comment)Some ignoble Dir are pushing this idea because they want to break Daarood-Block hegemony and push along the Oromo push simply for hatred and carrying a chip on their shoulder.

(Daarood comment)Their plan is for the long run convert Dirs filled with hate to Oromo and incorporate their land into Oromia.Claim more and more land. First to fall Jigjiga. Then with the help of Oromosised Somalis push further inland until they reach the coast. They will do this by applying the Oromo card. The only people who do not or can't be Oromised are the Daarood-Block and it is them that is keeping Somali construct alive and Oromos need to break.They can only do this by employing Somalis to carry out that task.

(Daarood Comment- what hypocript the Arab claiming,I came to Somalia 1600 and found Gallas all over says he loves Somalinimo) 

(It was Tigrey Jabartis brother the Daarood who invited under Cabdlullahi Yusuf to the capital)

(Daarood Comment)I believe in Somalinimo more than reernimo!Being Somali is a unique feeling. Our language is the mostbeautiful.This will be lost with Oromosation because this guys are similar they are a greater threat than any other ethnicity in the horn.We need to counter it with our beautiful language and poetry.

(Daarood Comment On Dir Oromo relationships )Peripheral subgroups assimilation and seekening alliance is different from a whole clan being 'incorporated'. The distinction is for the intellectual eye yet the layman he is he's trying to hide the Oromo agenda to regards Oromosation of a whole Somali clan like the Dir by equating minor subgroups assimilation seeking protection by adopting 'Oromo identity' which is different to what is being discussed on this thread.Who does someone from Djibiuti, Burco or Boorama seek protection from by adopting an Oromo identity?

Siad Barre continued to seek a negotiated settlement with the military regime in Addis Ababa that would allow for selfdetermination in the Ogaden. Only when his diplomatic initiative appeared to fail did Siad Barre agree to extend formal recognition late in 1975 to the Western Somali Liberation Front (WSLF), which had recently been reorganized by new leaders who had been schooled in the old SYL. Operating in the Ogaden, the WSLF was committed to the Greater Somalia concept. Linkedto it was the Somali-Abo Liberation Front, which incorporated dissident Oromos and had its sphere of operations in Bale, Sidamo, and Arsi. Somalia also backed and armed the Ethiopian People'sRevolutionary Party, a Marxist-Leninist group dedicated to establishing a civilian communist government, that fought a viciousunderground war against Ethiopia's military regime.

Tens of thousands of Muslim Arsi and Guji Were forced to became Daarood and incorporated into Merehan and Ogaden tribesman. Forced Daaroodization was reinforced once proud Arsi Muslim brothers were made to defect and could not return to their homalands. The cultural destruction that was imposed on Borana brothers who were expeled by Daarood invaders who entred southern Somali 1900 was imposed on the proud muslim brothers of Bale who are truely a people close to Somali in cultural and religous wise but Oromo nonetheless.

Today the Daarood of Ethiopia are enemies of Oromo brothers and were subservient to Tigray TPLF. What a hypocracy of the Socalled black false Banu Hashim pretenders.

THE STRUGGLES OF ABDIRAHMAN MURSAL. c.1896-1929 Abdirahman Mursal was one of the Ogaden leaders who had early contacts with the British colonial officials dating from 1896.

 THE STRUGGLES OF ABDIRAHMAN MURSAL. c.1896-1929 Abdirahman Mursal was one of the Ogaden leaders who had early contacts with the British colonial officials dating from 1896. He fought against the British colonial agents especially Lt. Will, and Capt. Tanner who were sent hy the British consul in Zanzihar to explore the hinterland of Kismayu in 1897.43 Afterwards Ahdirahman M ursal became a colonial agent who served Briti.sh expansion in jubiland very well , especially during the time of the first sub-commissioner, J.W.c. Jenner from 1897-- 1900. He took part in many expeditions against the Marehan and the Mohamed Zuheir clans who resisted British rule at this time and took a leading role in the expedition of f903 against the Mohamed Zuheir for the murder of Jenner in 1900. He Hved in Serenli area on the west bank of the Juha River where most of his followers grazed their livestock. Like all Somali leaders of that era , he wanted to take advantage of British rule and therehy serve his own interests rather than those of British imperialism. To achieve this end, he clashed several times with the British Colonial officers such as Capt. Salkeld, the Assistant 42. Ibid. 43. Ibid. 38 District Commissioner for lubaland, and Mr Hope, the Provincial Commissioner in 1909. After 1910, Abdirahman Mursal came under suspicion of creating intrigue among the clans especially between the Marehan and the Auliyahan; and Captain Bois, the officer in charge : . of Serenli, where Abdirahman was based, decided not to utilize his services as government agent in northern lubaland province.44 Abdirahman Mursal was the chief of the Auliyahan sub-clan in Serenli district in northern lubaland province and therefore had to safeguard the interest of his sub-clan c·rom rival clans notably the Marehan who were expanding southwards from Ethiopia. There were constant raids and counter-raids between these two neighbouring clans in the period 1896-1917, especially as both groups were migrating from the turmoil in the north caused by Sayyid Mohamed Abdille Hassan's resistance to not only British rule but also Abyssinian and Italian colonialism. The Marehan and the Auliyahan came with a lot weapons which they used to raid each other and the neighbouring clans. The new Governor of the Protectorate in 1913, Sir Henry Belfield, adopted the policy of observation and did not intervene on behalf of any clan. The British were neutral as far as these two clans were concerned. This ean be understood because the British were heavily engaged during this period in suppressing the struggles waged by Sayyid Mohamed Abdille Hassan, 'the Mad Mulla', in British Somaliland. The British were also engaged in various 'punitive' expeditions against the Kikuyu in 1901, Kipsigis in 1902 and 1905, and the Giriama in 1914. Hence the British officials whether in Nairobi or London did not want to engage themselves with the Ogaden Somalis in lub~land as it ·would require ·a lot of uncalled-for exp,enses. So the policy formulated by London and Nairobi to the officers on the spot was to observe but not to act on the situation. However, 'by 1919 the situation in northern lubaland had become serious'45 and lawlessness became the order of the day. The British administratIon was forced to brIng peace between these two traditional enemies. Whereas the Marehan were prepared to observe the truce negotiated by the local administrator, Captain Elliot. Abdirahman rejected the peace deals until the Marehan had brought back looted livestock. Elliot had no choice but to give an ultimatum to Abdirahman and his people to obey government orders. It was at this stage 44. Ibid. 45. Moyse-Bartlett, Kings African Rifles, p.434. 39 that Abdirahman requested to be given a day to consult with his elders concerning the ultimatum. Instead of coming to the negotiating haraza, however, Abdirahman and his people sacked Fort Serenli on the evening of 10 March 1916. The unsuspecting British forces at the ·c • fort were mercilessly routed and the District Commissioner, Captain Elliot, was murdered by Abdirahman Mursal 'with his own hand' . 46 The Auliyahan then began systematic looting of government stores and even the local business community was not spared. The ~ - - government was forced to evacuate Fort Serenli to Kismayu in the south and Moyale to the north west. For two years Abdirahman Mursal was the authority in northern Jubaland and the British could do nothing as it was the peak of the First World War. The sacking of Serenli was unique, in lubaland' s history because' of the vast damage that had befallen the British in the Jubaland,47 and it was only comparable to the lawlessness and destruction of both property and looting that was taking place in British Somali land in the north in the same period. The casualties were disheartening for 'over 35 IK.A.R] soldiers were killed and about 50 civilians lost their lives,48 during-the sacking of Serenli. The Auliyahan looted the town for two days and the remainder of the loot was !hrow?jIito the River luba. The other Somali clans, however, according to Abdille Hassan Illey, 'viewed the whole scenario with a lot of apprehension. They claimed that the Auliyahan did not know what to do with the sugar that was looted and had thrown it into the river so that their camels could drink sweetened water'. 49 Yet this was a scorched-earth policy adopted by the . -- -' Auliyahan to 'deny the British forces supplies if they were to counter-attack Abdirahman's forces,50 used in South Africa. - It was not until August 1917 that the 5th K. A. R under Lt. Col. Barret was despatched to Serenli to deal with the Auliyahan. But the Auliyahan had already retreated with their stock towards the upper re"clches of the Juba River and w.yre not even in Serenli. Hence Captain Martin of the 5th K.A.R was sent to capture Abdirahman dead or alive. In this operation against the Auliyahan, 'over 5,000 camels were brought in, 402 large-bore rifles and 16,000 46.

The 'kitaab gaabs' power to heal the sick through prayers, especially those with mental imbalances.

 Dalleo has noted that 'occasionally sheiks rose to prominent positions,73 because they possessed some divine powers which the ordinary), nomads held in awe. Those divine powers that seem to be derived from their holiness included the power to heal the sick through prayers, especially those with mental imbalances. 74 They were also known by the people to possess some kind of 'love potion' which they used to give to jealous . -- .' wives to prevent their husbands from marrying another wife. The 'kitaab gaabs' (short book owners), as they were traditionally called, were also feared by the people as they seem to have possessed knowledge that ordinary Somalis did not have . These 'kitaab gaabs' -were not highly learned in the Quranic scriptures though they knew some specific verses of the Quran which enhanced their trade. The Somali respected them more out of fear than anything else . The 'Kitaab gaabs' did not like to share their knowledge with the wider community in case .' they lost their market since they were highly in demand.

The infamous 'kalalut' war between the Abdwak and the Mohamed Zubeir -The Abdwak were saved Auliyahan

 The infamous 'kalalut' war between the Abdwak and the Mohamed Zubeir sub-clans of the Ogaden forced the former to migrate from the Lorrian swamps in the Wajir District to the south towards the Tana River in 1909. The Abdwak lost a large number of fighting men and were forcefully evicted by the powerful Mohamed Zubeir from their traditional grazing grounds. 69 The Abdwak were saved by the mediation efforts of other Ogaden sub-clans, notably the Auliyahan, who, feared that the Abdwak might disappear as a sub-clan.

The Ogadens (Kablalah Daarood) Were Sheegat to Rahanweyn who expelled Them And The Ogaden (Daarood) had to escaped They became sheegats to the Wardeey Of Waamo And Degoodi Who welcomed Daarood Mareehan and Ogaden.

  How the Daarood destroyed the Degoodi and Wardeey Cali who welcomed them

The Ogadens who were among the first Somali clans to have displaced the Wardeey from Jubaland came in two major waves. 4 The first wave commenced in the early l800s and was. characterised by slow penetration in which the search for grazing has been cited as the main reason behind the migration. At this stage the Ogaden were a small group that became sheegats (clientship) of the dominant Rahanwein clan who were settled in the upper reaches of the Juba river. The Rahanwein.a~e a by-product of the inter-marriage of the various Somali clans and the Wardeey . The Rahanwein, for this reason, speak a different dialect of Somali called ' Mai mai'. The second wave, starting 10 the mid 1830s, was composed of a larger group which numbered over four hundred fighting men who tried to evict the Rahanwein but could not do so after several bloody battles. 5 The Ogaden had to escape from them and cross to the west bank of the Juba river. They became sheegats to the Wardeey who lived here. While the Ogaden lived with the Wardeey from the 1840s to the 1 ~50:. ~ their numbers were being - continuously increased by new arrivals from Ogadenia and Mudugh region in what became -.:- Ethiopia and Somalia. After gaining numerical strength the Ogaden mercilessly fell upon their host and drove them from the west bank of the Juba river the by mid 1870s.6 The Ogaden threat was a long term one since it took them more than two decades to achieve dominance over the Wardeey in the Juba region.

The immediate threat to Wardeey of the Juba, however, came from other areas. The Bardera settlement under Sheikh Abiker along the Juba River, for one, continuously raided the Wardeey. Turton notes that the defeats suffered by the Wardei as a result of the Bardera settlement had 'seriously weakened them at a time when they were being harassed by a more tenacious enemy further west' . 7 Turton has further noted that the Wardei were wrongfully labeled as Gaalo Madow along with the Degodi whom the Ogaden expelled from Dolo Bay Dollo Ado and Murille Hawiye and the Garre.

The name Wardie  which means 'look at') were continuously attacked by the Garreh and a host of other clans who lived in the north western parts of the Wardei country , to such an extent that by the mid-1840s 'the northern limits of the Wardei were generally represented as being somewhere to the south of Bardera and no further north than Dif'. The balance of power between the Wardei and the Ogaden who lived among them had been one of equal strength for a number of years 'and the stalemate on the Juba continued for a number of years'. 9 It is likely that the Ogaden were just waiting for an opportune moment to become independent of the Wardei whom they held in contempt. 

1) The Wardeey Occupied El Waq to Mandera all the way to Borana land..

2) The Wardeey were weakened by small pox epidemic at the time.

3) The Wardeey were attacked by Borana, Ajuuran, and some Rahanweyn along with their treacherous Daarood host whom they gave protection as (Kablalah) but included Absame and Harti plus Sade Mareehan.

The treacherous Daarood Mercilessly Attacked their Wardai hosts who saved the from Rahanweyn.

This opportunity presented itself in 1865 when 'the Wardei were struck by a plague of smallpox which according to them, was hrought into Afmadu by the new Somali immigrants,.l1 As a result of this manifest weakening of the Wardei they were attacked on all fronts  and it is no surprise that they could not defend themselves but had to tlee for their lives. According to Turnbull , 'the main contlict was in the east; and the actions fought at Afmadu, on the Deshek Wama, and at EI Lein are still- spoken of by the tribe' .12 The Ogaden and Daarood were at this point led by the grand old man of the Abd Wak, Abdi Ibrahim , the Sultan, while there were a number of ' invasion commanders 3 under him: Abd(Ibrahim was noted for his bravery and skill in war strategy which eventually led to the Ogaden dominance in the Jubaland. His remarkable leadership qualities are still remembered to this day by the Ogaden. Notable among his commanders were Magan Yussuf, the Sultan of the Mohamed Zubeirl Ogaden, and Hassan Be~jan of the Abdalla/Ogaden. 

The Daarood, Rahanweyn of Bardheere Jamaca, and many others hostile to Wardai united and attacked from all fronts.

The Ogaden clan and there Daarood helpers were a united clan under the apt and recognised leadership of Abdi Ibrahim as the Sultan of all the component sub-clans. It was for convenience and safety that they remained united in the face of stiff opposition not only from the Wardei but also from other Hawiye clans on the left bank of the Juba. 14 A group of warriors numbering two to three hundred were at any given time on a raiding assignment to the Wardei and the latter though always prepared to defend themselves were no match for the determined and skilful Ogaden who believed they were waging a Jihad or a holy·war against what they viewed as the 'Galla madow' or 'the black infidels' .15

The Wardai, Gaaljecel, Awaramalleh, and Sheikhal who were defeated and people of Oromo clans were forcefully incorparated into the Daarood. Most of the Geergiir Galamadow (Gaaljecel, Awaramalleh and Hawiye tribes) were incorparated into Harti and many Wardai /Sheikhal became sheegat to Ogaden.

Having displaced the Wardei from the Juha region the Ogaden were no( co ntent to settle down but continued their southward expansion since the loot from the Wardei was an appetizing reason to continue their raids. The availahility of fresh pastures in the conquered lands coupled with the availability of surface water, especially after the rainy seasons around Afmadu and the Deshek Wama in the southern Juhaland, were other compelling factors that encouraged the Ogaden to continue their raiding forays into the Wardei country . As a result, the \yardei were being pushed south and westwards at the end of every rainy season.]6 Added to these incentives, there was also population pressure due to constant emigration from Ogadenia and the northern regions especially hy the Galti Ogaden and Galti Marehan .. 17 These new immigrants made it their practice to raid and to loot everything that carn.e their way especially as they had come from the north with no livestock of their 0~~ .]8 The Wardei were continuously impoverished after every raid as they never seemed to successfully repulse them while the Ogaden accumulated large herds of cattle. The Ogaden migration towards the Tana in the 1 860s and 1870s, was one of struggle to wrest control of the land from the Wardei ~ The Ogaden were firml y estahlished along the hanks of the Tana River by the 1870's, having virtually conquered and suhordinated the..Hawiye and Wardai to Daarood domination. According to Turnhull the attack of 1865 by the Daarood when the Wardei were weakened by plague was so unexpected and so violent that the Wardei were utterly lost their fighting will. 

How The Ogadeen And Mareehan host of the Degoodi attacked and subjected the people whom welcomed them and forced many Degoodi to became (Sheegat or Flee) and seek refuge with the Garreh Dir clans of Mandera.

For example the Degodia migrated from Addo in what was to become the Ethiopian province of Bale to the NFD of  the Kenya Colony in the 1910.The Degodia movement into Kenya was by slow penetration and infiltration. This migration was largely due to the rer Afgab of the Auliyahan sub-clan who were exerting pressure on the Degodia. After suffering a number of camel raids the Degodia opted to move to the sanctuary: of the British Protectorate that was being established on the fringe of their country in the 1900s.

The Degodia appear --to be most recent immigrants to the Northern Frontier District. They came to settle in Mandera and Wajir districts as recently as 1900 and later. 32 The Degodia migrated from a place in southern Ethiopia called Addo, as result of the inter-clan wars and the scarcity of pastures in that area. The Ogaden pressure in the southern Ogadenia and Bale regions of what was to become the Ethiopian Empire, especially the wars waged by the Rer  Afgab Auliyahan and the Marehan, forced the Degodia to migrate to the Garreh country in the vicinity of Mandera of what was to become the Kenya Colony. 33 While in the Garreh country in Mandera area, they sought permission to graze their camels from the Garreh r - - Sultan, Shaba Alio, who allowed them to do so unsuspectingly. After two decades, the Degodia population increased considerably and their competition for both water and pastures led to constant conflicts with the Garreh. 34 Having attained numerical strength, the Degodia continually harassed and raided the Garreh, until the latter could not take any more. But the Garreh on their own could not challenge the Degodia clan in warfare.
