I am least into politics, but reading everyone's replies I have a couple of cents (wanted/unwated) of my own to throw in.

The age of kings or monarchy has come to an end. Our country is so small that when it rains, its the last to know. But we know now. Monarchy is not a feasible option for educated, independant thinkers. That same way, communism is also not an option because of its impracticality. We are left with democracy, which has a historically high success rate and can also be attributes to shaping brilliant minds who have single handedly pulled the entire human race from one stage to another. 

But democracy without education might as well be like monkeys trying to play a game of basketball. They know the end goal is to make the ball go through the hoops, but are oblivious to all the small important rules that run the game. Its a major pain in the ass for players to 'do anything in their power' to make sure the ball goes through the hoops, gives unfair advantage to some, and in general is chaotic to just watch a bunch of monkeys fighting and running away with the ball to be ganged up by the entire team and the bench players on the court. 

Thats when the importance of rules, a system, a community, comes in. If there are rules, it at least provides players an incentive to try and follow them. If not, they get penalized. Which is the system. A system designed to run on its own, with maintenance every now and then. Everything in this world needs 'marmat' after a while. And finally an educated community which is bound together by similar ideals and morals and who will DEFEND THOSE in times of need. 

I guess we need to be more trusting of each other for that similar ideals and morals to come by. How do we gain trust? One way is by being more open, by being more verbal, spoken; basically getting those thoughts in your head out on to a viable medium. It doesn't have to be throught ONE medium. It's basically an artform, where you express something to be absorbed by the community and gather something meaningful out of it. Music, poems,books, pictures, films, paintings. Things that EXPOSE you, expose who you are, your thoughts, and what you feel, to a community that has the potential to understand your viewpoint(s). These are the structural beams that hold up any community. 

On note of community, one problem that we have, which EVERYONE in here is very much aware of is khutta tanning. Even in Sajha, someone posts something, there are about ten different people with shotguns ready to shoot the poor guy down (I admit, I've held the barell more than a couple of times). This hostility towards each other is what took Somalia to where it is today. I don't think any good is gonna come from that. 

We so badly lack this teamwork feeling. You know, cheering for a team you love, riding the crests and troughs of success and failure as one huge ship. Instead we are ready to tear everything apart. Build a dam, blow  it up. Build a communications tower, blow it up. 

Thus, I feel that what we need most right now is some sort of general education. It will offcourse take time, five to ten years, but really, how fast time goes when you are busy with something. Those who finished colleges, try to think how long those 4-5 years felt like. So in the time it takes you to get a degree, we could have some level of understanding going on in the country along the lines of: this is a ball, that is a basket, you gotta bounce the ball, not carry it over. If you shoot from this line, its 3 points. If you knowingly kick someone, thats reason for suspension. Etcetera.

And we can then enter playoffs with the big teams, even tho we have very slight chances to win, it will expose us to our weaknesses and how we can improve on them.

I know this all sounds too easy so I just want to put out there that every thought has a dichotomy; one which encourages you to do something, the other which discourages. I fall in the former camp, and sometimes we get dissed for being useless dreamers. 

Anyways, thanks for reading then.
