Yahya, we know who's wrong. However, as of now we have no power to bring them to justice. So, we'll leave it to Allah for not only he is the most merciful, but he is the harshest of punishers.
Tukeh's lawyer can barely speak a sentence without stuttering, blinking rapidly, or looking as if he's choking. He knows his client is guilty and it's sad to see him supporting such a horrible crime
Tuke is not found guilty, and he is not criminal. You should research better and know who are the real criminals. Julia, find out what muse bixi, the leader of somaliland, had done to people in somaliland.
how can southern somalis even think about reunifying with somaliland if they wont even acknowledge the attrocities that occured and the maliciousness of siad barre? LONG LIVE SOMALILAND
That's the dumbest thing i ever heard of, you think south somalis didn't suffer or get killed by him too? the isaaq weren't the only one targeted and neither the ones with the most deaths in the country the south felt the destruction much more severely the difference was the clan armies of the south were stronger and beat siad barres army so don't blame the south for our poor northern brothers

The policy of the Siad Barre government towards the Isaaq Clan of Northern Somalia is alluded to in a WRITENET publication, Somalia: Civil War, Intervention and Withdrawal 1990-1995. It notes that the government resorted to clan-based tactics to counter the Majerteen threat following the suppression of a coup d'etat staged by officers of this clan in 1978. President Barre relied on mainly three clans to counter the Majerteen threat: the small Marehan, the Ogadeen and the Dolbahante. This patronage system was referred to as the MOD (Marehan-Ogadeen-Dolbahate), and was evident as MOD civil servants, superior officers and businessmen began to occupy the top ranks of Somali society, thereby alienating other clans including the Majerteen, the Isaaq who make up 80 percent of the former British Somaliland, and the Hawiye. Due to Barre's dislike for the Isaaq, he reportedly organized settlements of Ogadeen Somali refugees in the North which is Isaaq territory. Armed clashes between the Ogadeen and Isaaq multiplied, with the government appearing to side with the Ogadeen. These practices are believed to have contributed to the formation by the Isaaq exiles in Great Britain of the Somali National Movement (SNM), a guerrilla front, dedicated to the overthrow of the Siad Barre government. A publication titled, Somalia: A nation in turmoil, describes grievances of the Isaaqs which include: the Daaroods and Hawiyes domination of power and privilege to the deprivation of the Isaaqs since independence; and that southern Somalia, former Italian Somalia, due to being more developed and densely populated, has tended to dominate the north Isaaq territory. The Isaaqs dissatisfaction with the government as it relates to inequitable distribution of resources became evident soon after independence when northern officers staged an abortive coup in December 1961. Since then, there have been episodes of the Isaaqs venting their grievances against the central government. A case in point was the bloodless coup staged by General Barre which resulted in the removal of the Isaaq premier (1967-69), Mohamed H.I. Igaal, from power, thereby confirming the Isaaqs view that there was an anti-Isaaq hidden agenda to exclude them from leadership positions. The Isaaqs through their guerrilla front, Somali National Movement, later launched an offensive in May 1988, on the towns of Bur'o and Hargeisa. They were defeated by the military regime after bombardment of the towns with artillery and planes, leaving those towns completely destroyed. Between 27 May and December, it is estimated that about 200,000 Isaaqs were killed, including women and children who were alleged to have been cold-bloodedly bayoneted to death. The city of Hargeisa, with over half a million inhabitants before the government's offensive, was in ruins as well as Burao.
The man who did this is dead. The regime ended and the government failed. Decades has passed and inshallah Allah will bring true justice to those who caused those atrocities. Why not start a new chapter and move as One Somali Nation or are you going to let the past tear you apart from your people? After all, we only have each other.

Somalia and Somaliland were not always together, previous to colonialism they weren’t and somaliland got its independice before Somalia did. We were initially for one greater Somalia and that blew up in our face. Separating is the best for all of us, Somalia needs to realize they have bigger fish to fry and worry about becoming stable before even thinking about trying to get us back together with them.
We never and never forget our dark history with Somalia even we were children in that time but we can remember anything that happened and we did the right thing for a better future to our kids When we separated from them ... ..... ..... thank you so much somaliland for this independence

SUBHANALLAH!!! This Mass Genocide Of Innocent Lives Is Unacceptable! I Pray To ALLAH (SWT) Those Who Took Part Killing Innocent Brothers And Sisters In Islam To Face The Wrath Of The ALMIGTY ALLAH (SWT) In This Life And Hereafter Ameen
If you were there back in 1988 you would have know that this was Tuke and the Faqash nacas like morgan who committed these massacre, tribes specially the samaroon had nothing to do. Ur comment is just a pure insult.
It's a genocide and I'm so sorry what happened our brothers Of Isaaq Clan. How to kill and bombed our fightening airplanes, How to killed innocent people aljazeera and unkindly fight made siyad barreh Regime to that clan.

We both have somali in our names so I can call somaliland zoomaliland lmao🤦♂️🤦♂️. Dont diss ur own people were still all somali (I'm a lander btw) but if you want independence fine.
In Arabsiyo Somaliland on October 19, 1984 the military had executed seven men and they sentenced two women to life sentence. I was 14 years old. I've witnessed the execution. Later that day, the same executioners forced me to burry the victims in a mass grave. I am 54 years old now. I am still suffering from the trauma that I received from that horror in that October day in 1984. I wish I was there to tell my story.
I’m so sorry to hear that you’re still suffering. And I’m so sorry you had to go through that at such a young age. Healing is not an easy thing to do, it takes time. And it takes so much courage to keep going on in life after what you’ve been through. Do you still live in somaliland now?

I am SURE if Somalia government brought to justice for those who committed this genocide in front of ICC, ....SOMALIA and SOMALILAND will reunify again,, and people in north Somalia will at least CANCEL SOMALILAND AS COUNTRY and returning GREATER SOMALIA AGAIN, but IF refused and deny, ALL THESE ALLEGATION against war criminals , world will recognize somaliland as INDEPENDENT COUNTRY
We don't want to reunify with Somalia, precolonial times we governed on our own as the Adal Empire. We have nothing to do with the Ajuuran/Somalia nor have we ever been governed by them, the short lived unity of horror is a mistake our ancestors sadly made.

As Somalilander yester years are gone and I dont double with it and Iam looking forward to the future because that is the way of the forward thinking people
what i don't get is the agenda behind this documentation . i am a somaliland for the record and coming back to my question the reason why i am asking is because this is the 3rd or 4th documentation made in past 20 years yet there has been no action been taken except denying refugee status to tukeh and morgan ... but that does not change anything. so what deference is this documentation going to do . or is it a reminder of divide and rule ?
There're hundreds if not thousands of Colonel Tukas who commited worse crimes against the the Ishaq people of Somaliland in the years 1982-1990 and of course against humanity ! But the irony and the incredible is most of these war criminals who have the blood of hundreds of thousands of Ishaqas in their hands are living in comfort, even in luxury in the USA and Europe after having been given first grade asylum status. The question is if the World and the plain facts admit that Somalia and dictator Siad Barre have commited genocide against the major tribe in Somaliland, how is it that after 32 years the UN and the International Community would not raise the question of that genocide and bring the war criminals the International Court in the Hague to face justice for theit crimes against humanity? Why should the genocide against the Ishaq people be different from the genocide against the Bosnian and Tutsi people of Ruwanda ?
So painful documentary , I don't know what should i say but the justice should take away and we must bring people who did these kind of atrocities and genocide to the Court
I don't believe Farhan's story that soldiers accepted money from him and let him go lol They could simple take the money and shot him too lol I am not denying what the Somali government did was horrible, but we could also smile the fabricated story here. I personally know someone who's father was killed by the SNM and he was a civilian and was not affiliated by the government!
All war criminals be brought to justice including even after the Siyad BARRE regime, Ahmed mohammed Mohamud SIILANYO and the current president of Somaliland Musa Bixi ABDI committed public prosecution in KALSHAALE, BORAMA AND CERRI GAABO and yet, even today because those minorities are unionists meaning We are Still SOMALIA and we can't separate our Nation now after Siyad BARRE is gone, I write this comment in, those minorities are brutally murdered and marginalized every day since Somaliland power is only in the hands of the central majority clan (isaaq)
Major General Siad Barre poorly trained not true you guys have been fighting al shabab for the last 20 years yet you haven’t beaten them that training must be good then
@Major General Siad Barre nacAllah abihi kuyaalkan garac Daarood u sheeg runta. Adoomaha Turkida. Ciidagale was salaadiin iyaka saan cadaalihi ay ka garcoobeen ayay caabudaan . Garac Daarood is nothing. They became Somalis through a slave captive daughter of Dir
@Major General Siad Barre u cant even handle al shabab and u talking about invading the north relax ur jealous ur country will always be a debris filled wasteland
This attorney is stuttering so embarrassingly!!!! His body language and way of speaking makes it so obvious! Words aren't even flowing to his mind naturally!
Somaliland and somalia will never become a united country until the end of the world , wether u hate or dislike the reality on the ground Somaliland is an indipendant country as they used to be before throwing ther sovereingty back in 1960 , lesson learned , simple as that , cased closed
Finally! Tukeh was unceremoniously arrest by US Immigration on November 17th 2022. It tragically too nearly two decades of legal battles by his surviving victims to finally bring this monster to justice. I am shocked this devil was not brutally tortured and killed by one of his victims or a surviving family member. Instead of enacting revenge themselves, everyone involved showed incredible restraint and trust in the legal system. I could not ever show any restraint if the man responsible for the detention, abuse, rape, unimaginable torture, starvation, and the agonizingly gruesome murder of those I know and love was walking free. All the victims and those involved in bringing Tukeh to justice deserve our greatest respect and gratitude. Their courageous battle, resilience, and restraint allowed the justice system to prevail over this and the other evil monsters. His slime ball lawyers deserve to be disbarred and sent into exile....except for the one lawyer who provided information to the prosecution to help get the conviction.
What kind of reporting is this? The reporter states as a fact "General Siyad barre launched a genocidal attack against people in the north of the country!" Says who? How does he know that? How can such an unsubstantiated allegation be allowed on Al-Jazeera. And then he shows rows of human skeletons for whom we know nothing about. When they died, who they were, and why they died. This is the most inflammatory anti-Somali piece of journalism that I ever came across. It is tearing apart at the fabric of Somali society, and it is being blithely broadcast on Al-Jazeera. I am sure even the BBC would not touch such a piece. It needs to be retracted, apology given and removed from the website.
This is lie, the SNM is to blame not the Somali army, , off course if there is war problems will happen and civilians will be killed. this is propaganda ask your self. How many Somalis have been killed now after Siyad Bare. Borame, Las Anod, the former president of Somaliland they were working for Somali government. The question is why would they forgive people from Somaliland and not forgive other Somalis all of this is political.
😢😢😭 may Allah grant them all Jannah. What Barre did is very evil. It hurts me that this people are reliving that horrible day again with those guys digging up the graves and show they beloved ones skeletons 😭😭
@@TheAtemiles Hhh that's typical hater's manipualtion saying this kind of emotional comment , it's up to me wether i choose to forgive or not it has nothing to do been moslim u illitarute
On May 27, 1988 Siad Barre gave instructions to exterminate all members of the Isaaq tribe. Military forces under the command of Mohammed Said Hersi began aerial and artillery bombardment of the three cities in which the Isaaq lived: Hargeisa, Berbera and Bur’o. They also attacked villages and nomadic encampments where tribe members lived. Infantry forces exterminated those fleeing from cities, and after the cities were completely destroyed, went in on foot to complete the killing work directly. Many bodies were buried in mass graves. General Said Hersi reported to Barre that he could not wipe out all of the Isaaq, as they were too numerous. It was then that his troops began forced marches of Isaaq tribesmen across the desert towards the Ethiopian border. Many perished of hunger and thirst along the way. The city of Hargeisa, which held some 350,000 inhabitants before the attack, was completely abandoned. The whole area was laid waste - animal herds were confiscated, agriculture destroyed, and mines laid everywhere. Various estimates give the number killed in less than one year at between 100,000 and 400,000 Isaaq. More than half a million Isaaq fled to Ethiopia; some half a million more lost their homes and became internally displaced persons in the northern region.
Farmaajo should say something on behalf of Somaliland as president about tukeh so he can be punished. The us is harbouring criminals this will make headlines and they would have no choice but to put him in prison
To reach the truth and regain the love among the somali people we need to step aside tribalism and bring to justice to whoever took part this crimes against humanity whatever clan they claim. crime is crime and anyone who committed this kind of atrocities should be brought to justice so the victims are relieved once and for all.

@@crownking9257 fam. Just because we ate one ummah doesn’t mean we have to be the same country. Saudi is part of the ummah are they apart of Somalia? NO. Somalia and Somaliland were not always together, previous to colonialism they weren’t and somaliland got its independice before Somalia did. We were initially for one greater Somalia and that blew up in our face. Separating is the best for all of us, Somalia needs to realize they have bigger fish to fry and worry about becoming stable before even thinking about trying to get us back together with them.

those who committed this genocide should be brought in front of ICC
Samaroon people participated crimes against Isaq people but we forgave them for the sake is the country.
If you were there back in 1988 you would have know that this was Tuke and the Faqash nacas like morgan who committed these massacre, tribes specially the samaroon had nothing to do. Ur comment is just a pure insult.

In Arabsiyo Somaliland on October 19, 1984 the military had executed seven men and they sentenced two women to life sentence. I was 14 years old. I've witnessed the execution. Later that day, the same executioners forced me to burry the victims in a mass grave. I am 54 years old now. I am still suffering from the trauma that I received from that horror in that October day in 1984. I wish I was there to tell my story.
I’m so sorry to hear that you’re still suffering. And I’m so sorry you had to go through that at such a young age. Healing is not an easy thing to do, it takes time. And it takes so much courage to keep going on in life after what you’ve been through. Do you still live in somaliland now?

Somaliland's statehood has nothing to do with crimes of the 1980's, somalland statehood stems from the 1960 robbery that was called union.
We don't want to reunify with Somalia, precolonial times we governed on our own as the Adal Empire. We have nothing to do with the Ajuuran/Somalia nor have we ever been governed by them, the short lived unity of horror is a mistake our ancestors sadly made.

As Somalilander yester years are gone and I dont double with it and Iam looking forward to the future because that is the way of the forward thinking people
what i don't get is the agenda behind this documentation . i am a somaliland for the record and coming back to my question the reason why i am asking is because this is the 3rd or 4th documentation made in past 20 years yet there has been no action been taken except denying refugee status to tukeh and morgan ... but that does not change anything. so what deference is this documentation going to do . or is it a reminder of divide and rule ?
simple highlight the issue and use the power of Aljazeera English to put both the IC and the Somalia government on the spot.
There're hundreds if not thousands of Colonel Tukas who commited worse crimes against the the Ishaq people of Somaliland in the years 1982-1990 and of course against humanity ! But the irony and the incredible is most of these war criminals who have the blood of hundreds of thousands of Ishaqas in their hands are living in comfort, even in luxury in the USA and Europe after having been given first grade asylum status. The question is if the World and the plain facts admit that Somalia and dictator Siad Barre have commited genocide against the major tribe in Somaliland, how is it that after 32 years the UN and the International Community would not raise the question of that genocide and bring the war criminals
the International Court in the Hague to face justice for theit crimes against humanity?
Why should the genocide against the Ishaq people be different from the genocide against the Bosnian and Tutsi people of Ruwanda ?
Somali unity died in here a long time ago.
@justiny.1949 Nah We dont want to be part of those Weak People Ruled by Amisom 😂
Am disgusted of this guy (siyad bare) whom I thought was a hero and a role model .

It's better to forget walal and focus the future.
So painful documentary , I don't know what should i say but the justice should take away and we must bring people who did these kind of atrocities and genocide to the Court
I don't believe Farhan's story that soldiers accepted money from him and let him go lol They could simple take the money and shot him too lol I am not denying what the Somali government did was horrible, but we could also smile the fabricated story here. I personally know someone who's father was killed by the SNM and he was a civilian and was not affiliated by the government!
All war criminals be brought to justice including even after the Siyad BARRE regime, Ahmed mohammed Mohamud SIILANYO and the current president of Somaliland Musa Bixi ABDI committed public prosecution in KALSHAALE, BORAMA AND CERRI GAABO and yet, even today because those minorities are unionists meaning We are Still SOMALIA and we can't separate our Nation now after Siyad BARRE is gone, I write this comment in, those minorities are brutally murdered and marginalized every day since Somaliland power is only in the hands of the central majority clan (isaaq)
Never forgive, never forget.

Finally! Tukeh was unceremoniously arrest by US Immigration on November 17th 2022. It tragically too nearly two decades of legal battles by his surviving victims to finally bring this monster to justice. I am shocked this devil was not brutally tortured and killed by one of his victims or a surviving family member. Instead of enacting revenge themselves, everyone involved showed incredible restraint and trust in the legal system. I could not ever show any restraint if the man responsible for the detention, abuse, rape, unimaginable torture, starvation, and the agonizingly gruesome murder of those I know and love was walking free. All the victims and those involved in bringing Tukeh to justice deserve our greatest respect and gratitude. Their courageous battle, resilience, and restraint allowed the justice system to prevail over this and the other evil monsters. His slime ball lawyers deserve to be disbarred and sent into exile....except for the one lawyer who provided information to the prosecution to help get the conviction.

What kind of reporting is this? The reporter states as a fact "General Siyad barre launched a genocidal attack against people in the north of the country!" Says who? How does he know that? How can such an unsubstantiated allegation be allowed on Al-Jazeera. And then he shows rows of human skeletons for whom we know nothing about. When they died, who they were, and why they died. This is the most inflammatory anti-Somali piece of journalism that I ever came across. It is tearing apart at the fabric of Somali society, and it is being blithely broadcast on Al-Jazeera. I am sure even the BBC would not touch such a piece. It needs to be retracted, apology given and removed from the website.
This is lie, the SNM is to blame not the Somali army, , off course if there is war problems will happen and civilians will be killed. this is propaganda ask your self. How many Somalis have been killed now after Siyad Bare. Borame, Las Anod, the former president of Somaliland they were working for Somali government. The question is why would they forgive people from Somaliland and not forgive other Somalis all of this is political.

On May 27, 1988 Siad Barre gave instructions to exterminate all members of the Isaaq tribe. Military forces under the command of Mohammed Said Hersi began aerial and artillery bombardment of the three cities in which the Isaaq lived: Hargeisa, Berbera and Bur’o. They also attacked villages and nomadic encampments where tribe members lived. Infantry forces exterminated those fleeing from cities, and after the cities were completely destroyed, went in on foot to complete the killing work directly. Many bodies were buried in mass graves.
General Said Hersi reported to Barre that he could not wipe out all of the Isaaq, as they were too numerous. It was then that his troops began forced marches of Isaaq tribesmen across the desert towards the Ethiopian border. Many perished of hunger and thirst along the way. The city of Hargeisa, which held some 350,000 inhabitants before the attack, was completely abandoned. The whole area was laid waste - animal herds were confiscated, agriculture destroyed, and mines laid everywhere. Various estimates give the number killed in less than one year at between 100,000 and 400,000 Isaaq. More than half a million Isaaq fled to Ethiopia; some half a million more lost their homes and became internally displaced persons in the northern region.
That's the truth mate. No lies, what propaganda you talking about.
Part 2 is largely similar to part 1. Never expect the USA to convict their own allies. Birds of a feather.....
