The Dhulbahanta and Warsangeli need to realize that tribalism is not in Somaliland's MO...in a democracy, clannish sentiments have no room or wiggle space, and they will only hurt their chances to progress if they continue siding with Puntland and the whole harti thing than being patriotic Somaliland citizens. If it comes to be, we will have no qualms to have Ethiopians do our bidding and punish them, we will sic Xabashis on them. Besides, "Soomaalinimo" is pretty much dead. All that Somaliland is doing is defending its territorial integrity, ie the former boders of the colonial British Somaliland.
