I was sitting in a coffee shop with an elder who had fought for the USC. He told me as they took over the city, there were instances of intense fighting and skirmishes but that it was a relatively easy take over. As he and his crew were setting up check points he spotted an old woman wearing an orange jilbaab in the back of silver toyota pick up truck. As he looked closer he saw she had long eye lashes, mascara and bright red lipstick on. It seemed suspicious and after a few seconds later of intense staring he realized it was none other than Siyaad Barre himself! He shouted to his comrades, "Waryaadhaheen! Waa Siyaad Barre!! Siyaad Barre baan helay!". The man with his gun pointed at the woman now, surrounded by his comrades began to inspect the facial features of the woman. Half of them called the man crazy of suspecting an old lady, while some wanted her to remove her jilbaab to verify if it was actually a woman. The general then joined them and as he was about to ask the woman who she was and where she came from, in what you could imagine to be the raspiest voice caricature of mickey mouse, she said "I-I-Ilahay ka baaq. Ilahay ka baaq! Dagaalka baan raaba inaan ka cararo! I daaya!". Every freedom fighter there at that moment, had their mouths agape, guns lowered and were in shock. That was definitely a man. As they were about to snap out of it, an explosion came from behind them and they were under attack. The toyota pick up truck revved & managed to escape, the guy telling me the story told me before speeding off, a gust of wind hit the womans face and that one of the eyelashes fell to the ground slowly infront of him. In that coffee shop, at that moment, he swore to god over and over again, that Siyaad Barre had slipped through his fingers. I personally believe him.

Im fucking deaaaaaaaad, i hope this thread doesn't get deleted fucking hilarious

Nahhhhh that’s wild

Saved it for copypasta for the next fallen world leader. Lmao

Even if it isn’t true that story is hilarious

If you believe that bullshit I got a bridge to sell you. USC propaganda is no replacement for fact based journalism.

💀

What?

Bruhhhhhh this is funny as shit

Niqab would be a more practical covering since it would hide your face.

He was definitely sporting a niqab 💀

Nothing more than khat induced hallucination, come up with by rxapists and looters. I wonder who wrote it for them since none of them could obviously read or write. This is low quality content.

LOOL, Siad barre was sh|tting bricks, their are even reports of him crying when he was being hunted down by caydiid and his troops, this is well reported even SNM were laughing when hearing about the news of what USC caydiid mujahid did to siad barre. I cant stop laughing, but i know for a fact he wore a niqab and not hijab, even siad barre loyal guards reported it.

Nationalism. He had done good things and also horrible things. Those individuals generally preferred having dictator than brutal civil war. there also sense of nostalgia for the past which somewhat linked siad barre.

The same reason that Churchill, Napoleon, Bismarck, Simón Bolívar, and the “founding fathers”’of the USA is appreciated, loved, and respected.

He was a terrible leader, since the moment he took office un-elected and held power and somalia hostage for 20 years , he had no knowledge of politics, the only people who appericiate him are those from his tribe, if you want to know why Civil war is better than Siad barre, is simply because if Siad barre was to continue ruling , the ISAAQ clan and other non - Darood clans would be extinct.

Siyad Barre was the best thing that happened to Somalia and if some reer badiye warlords didn’t overthrow his government without one single plan in place, we wouldn’t scattered all over the world.
