	This “Somaliland Phobia”
		Moreover, the author’s claim of Dhulbahante and Warsangeli tribes becoming like the Kurdish minority of Somaliland is laughable, and I should say that is the joke of the day.
		If the author can distinguish Dhulbahante or Warsangeli tribes from other tribes in Somaliland, such as Isaaq, Gudabiirsay or Iise, then he deserves standing ovation because such observations would be equivalent to the discoveries of an anthropologist.
		The author’s attempt to divide Somaliland people by revisiting the darkest history of the nation and at the same time expressing sympathy for the victims of the civil war is a classic example of a wolf hiding in sheep’s clothing.

		Their territory was occupied by Britain only after a long and bitter armed struggle lasting almost a quarter century, and with the end of the occupation, they were only too glad to regain their freedom and to rejoin their kinsmen on the other side of that unnatural, European-imposed barrier.
		That is why, upon the disintegration of the country into clan-dominated enclaves, the Dhulbahante and Warsangeli formed the Puntland Regional Administration together with their Harti and Darod clansmen in the northeast.
		They base their extrme position on resentment of the treatment their people rceived at the hands of the former government, but that government is no longer in place.

		For example, the Land of Punt (currently Warsangeli territory), Makhir, (commercial center of the North also territory of Warsangeli), were all societies that excelled in the art of architecture, agricultural and civil engineering.

		Bihidor clan (Warsangeli subclan) first withdrew their loyalty and support from the Sultan, thus making unflinching decision to join the Dervishes and defeat the army of the Sultan.
		Thus, this new protectorate raised the concerns of both the Mijertein and Warsangeli sultanates in which they foresaw dangerous wave of tides immersing their protectorate particularly after the treaty.
		Finally, forces of Warsangeli and Dervishes met at Jidali and this was in fact the final decimation of the Dervishes.

		Somaliland is populated by various tribes: Gedabuursi and Isse in the Awdal Region, Habar Awal (Isaaq) in the South-West Region, Habar Jecllo, Habar Yonis, Isse Muse (all Isaaq) and Dhulbahante (Darood) in Togdheer Region.
		If the author can distinguish Dhulbahante or Warsangeli tribes from other tribes in Somaliland, such as Isaaq, Gudabiirsay or Iise, then he deserves standing obviation because such observations would be equivalent to the discoveries of an anthropologist.
		In addition, the Kurdish and the Iraqi Arabs are two different ethnics, and not to mention the long ethnic cleansing that the Kurdish people have experienced in Iraq.

		In 1910, during the war between Sayid Mohamed Abdullah Hassan and the British Empire, Brittain abandoned its “loyal clans” and left tyhem to their devices, although they were obliged to protect them (2).
		Moreover, the Warsangeli, having sided with Sayid Mohamed Abdulle Hassan, were punished for their “misbehaviour” (2).
		The so-called Anglo-Somali protectorate agreements of 1884/1886, which were practically rendered null and void in 1910 were finally officially abrogated in May 1960.

		The fighting was between the Warsangeli and Wa'asle sub-clans of the main Abgal clan, Awil Hashi, a Mogadishu resident said.
		The fighting was started by the revenge killing of two Warsangeli businessmen in the market area by suspected Wa'asle militia early on Thursday morning, Hashi told IRIN.
		The fighting, however, has its roots in a dispute between the two sub-clans over the running of El-Ma'an beach port, in north Mogadishu, which was normally controlled by the two groups, but was currently under the Warsangeli, Hashi said.

		Without the inclusion of their history and contribution to the Somalia's emancipation from imperialistic control, Sayid's history would never be fair and fact.
		The history of the dervishes will not be complete unless the battles against the Warsangeli Sultanate are studied and included.

	SOMALIA: Tension rising in north
		Sool and Sanaag fall geographically within the borders of pre-independence British Somaliland, but most of the clans there are associated with Puntland.
		These are the Warsangeli and the Dhulbahante, which, along with Majerteen - the main clan in Puntland - form the Harti sub-group of the Darood.
		Ashara said it was normal for the Puntland authorities to send police forces to the area "since both regions are part and parcel of Puntland".

	A REJOINDER TO ABDALLA A HIRAD’S OUTBURST AGAINST PROFESSOR JHAZBHAYs
		Darood, Isaq, Hawiye and Rahaweins etc. In such eventuality and as history attest, sub-groups as Dulbahante and/or Warsangeli will be swallowed by larger clan arrangements and thus significantly reduce their respective bargaining positions.
		The recent outcry in Las Canood by the Dulbahante on unfair resource distribution in favour of the Majeerten under the Puntland’s administration and the skirmishes between Warsangeli and Puntland militia underscores this scenario.
		The only factual reality is that within these sub-clans there are elements on both side of the equation and that while Somaliland would prefer a peaceful resolution of the dilemma, Puntland for whatever reason are in preference for conflict.

		The ONLF which for the last decade has been engaged in a hit and run insurgency against Ethiopian government forces in some parts of Ethiopia’s autonomous Somali regional state, draws its recruits exclusively from the Ogaden/Darood clan.
		Abdillahi Yusuf’s Majerteen, along with Somaliland’s Dhulbahante and Warsangeli, form the Harti sub-group of the Darood clan.
		There are many other Somali clans including Somaliland’s Isaak, Issa and Gadabursi that live in Ethiopia’s Somali regional state.

		Though the agreement with Range was also endorsed by Abdillahi Yusuf, Puntland’s more senior warlord who had since promoted himself as president of lawless Somalia, however the terms of the deal remained secret until they were exposed in a story published by our sister publication, the daily Somali language “Haatuf”, on Jan 10, 2006.
		Attempts by the Majeerteen dominated Puntland militia to subdue the local Warsangeli inhabitants led to a number of skirmishes between the two sides.
		Last month’s arrival in the area of a Range team of mining experts also sparked Warsangeli resistance against any attempts at exploiting their mineral prospects.
