To tell you the truth, SNM was Somaliland’s dominant group organized in a liberation movement - and I mean the group as a whole.Toronto, Canada
In the early days of planning the struggle, the circumstance was that the government used divisive tribalism as a means of staying on power. It wasn’t possible for all groups to give their allegiances to one organization. The dominant group of Somaliland took arms against its own government, after having seen the union with Somalia, under a dictatorship, wasn’t working for Somaliland’s purpose of the union.
Historically, in a war, many unrecoverable mistakes happen. It wasn’t different with the SNM. It is why the reconciliation conference was held in Borame in the first place. Though free discussion of the people is permissible, after the dictatorship, revisiting the qualities of an organization that was, wouldn’t do anyone any good. It would only open up old wounds. Since no group (if they are in their minds) would want to go back to the dark days, degrading SNM can be the topic of the fools. Instead, I think, it is much better to enjoy sharing its product, an independent Somaliland, which we do.
In a country every body- whether she/he had been pro or against the struggle- cannot be satisfied. A dissatisfied individual who says, “The country needs re-liberation” and who pretends to be speaking in the name of SNM should not be believed. Such an individual is merely pointing out his/her dissatisfaction. A Somali saying is “The meanest of all men is the one who believes everything said.”
SNM was itself a democratic organization. It has always elected its leadership, had five different elected leaders during the liberation period (1982 -1991) and the liberation of Somaliland was by early 1991 complete. Somaliland has retreated from the ill-fated union by 18 May1991. SNM promised that it would transfer all powers to population with in two years- In this case, population means the pro and against liberation groups. It did so in 1993 in the famous reconciliation conference in Borame.
So, please don’t be mean. Hold your head high!!!!!
God bless you!!!
