Are Somalis and Galla Related to Each Other?

Post by Somaliman » 07 Jan 2024, 17:08

I often come across people that are stating that we Somalis and savage Galla are related to each other, claiming that we're both Cushitic.

But what is this fuc.king Cushitic?

Cushitic is just a branch of the Afroasiatic language family and has absolutely nothing to do with ethnicity or ancestry. It's purely from language perspective.

Both Somali and Oromo and a few other languages are part of the Afroasiatic language family called Cushitic. But this doesn't mean at all that people who speak these languages are ethnically related to each other or share a common ancestry. Hell, no. Only their languages have a same or similar origin, or simply share a certain degree of commonality. And that's it.

Similarly, Indo-European languages are a language family and, like Cushitic, has nothing to do with ethnicity.

Guess who the speakers of Indo-European languages are?

Spanish, English, Hindi–Urdu, Bengali, Portuguese, Russian, Punjabi, French, and German.

Can you claim that the above are related to one another? What has a fuc.king Indian got to do with a German, or a bloody Punjabi with a Russian?

Absolutely nothing. It's just their languages that are regrouped in a same language family. It doesn't mean that they're ethnically related to one another, or they're distant cousins. Go tell a German that Indians and Pakistanis are their cousins, or tell a Russian that Bangladeshi people are their cousins.

I know a number of fuc.king ignorant Somalis parrot that Galla are our distant cousins. Hell, no. We've got absolutely nothing to do with these fuc.king savage Bantus. I also know that Galla exploit this misconception, either consciously and premeditatedly or simply by ignorance, and often claim that we're their cousins, which we're not.


Misraq,

Next time you scribble that Somalis and Galla are cousins, I'll come to you and beat the sh.it out of you and, if possible, make you pay me for this educational discourse.

Somali ethnicity and oromo don't correspond since Somalis are highly proud of their histories, but for oromo, they adapt readily. An oromo will alter his or her name or ethnicity if they believe they may acquire benefits or advantages for them. Why do you suppose Amara made them Amharanized and altered their names?

But Amhara is finding it hard, as those who are murdering today are former amharanizeds who all of a sudden turned to be oromo once Abiy was in charge. These folks are deceitful; they don't appreciate religion; they may be Muslims today or Christians next week. They are people without shame.

Somalis are exceptionally tall; the average oromo is 5.3" inches. One example connected to the input may be about a person from the Oromo group who chooses to change their name and ethnicity to Amhara in order to acquire specific perks or advantages. This individual may believe that being labeled as Amhara might give them greater prospects or benefits in society. However, this decision may be considered perilous by others, particularly among people who treasure their cultural identity and history.

The difference between Oromo and Somali is that Oromos are around 30-50% Omotic if you guys know Omotic means southern Ethiopian basically the people of GAMO SNNPR the other 30-60% of Oromo DNA is Cushitic

The most Cushitic Oromos are the Hararghe and Borana next to them are the Arsi

Oromo historically is related to Somali people the difference is borana probably mixed with Omotic people forming the Oromo Orma tribe in Borana this is why Oromo have a similar language to Somali

There are also other cushitic tribes native in Ethiopia like the Sidama and Hadiya the Sidama being native to the highlands of Bale Province and the Hadiya being native to the western parts of Arsi. Sidama and Hadiya are Ethio Cushitic tribes that were absorbed into the Oromo Ethnicity through Gada Assimilation process.

Somalia on the other hand are 80-90% Cushitic and have very little Southern Ethiopian DNA

tigrayan lady and tigrayan boy zack, are obsessed with us ''gallas,'' but if we're so insignificant, savage, etc; then why discuss us online everyday? Seems that you're like an obsessed ex-wife who swears she's gotten over her ex-husband, but is clearly lying to herself... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Beja are also like 90% Cushtiic and Nubians are 95% Cushitic so in reality Cushites are Northern Sudanese people that migrated to the Horn of Africa this is why Sudanese and Somalis look identical

Yet you discuss us here every day and cry about us day and night. It looks like we occupy a large portion of your brains, my tigrayan brother or sister, zack or zahra-hagos-wedi adwa. :mrgreen:
SOME Oromos sit in Meneliks palace, not all of us, or even a majority. But, of course, simple minds tend to generalize because it requires more deliberation and thought to not generalize people. It's easier to generalize an entire nation. I get it. Why burden a simple mind such as yours with such thing as, being just, impartial, fair, etc? :mrgreen:
You want others to ''deal with us'' though, cause you personally ain't gonna do nothing but sit in the diaspora comfortably, and hope for, and watch, if it happens, 'others' fight each other. :mrgreen:

Despite my time to educate you a bit free of charge, you're still getting it all wrong.

Cushitic relates to or denotes a group of languages, and has absolutely nothing to do with ethnicity.

How could fuc.king Oromo historically relate to the Somali people, uttering about mixage between Borana and Omotic people, when I've explained to you that this fuc.king Cushitic notion revolves exclusively around the membership of a language in a language family called Cushitic, and has strictly nothing to do with ethnicity or different ethnic groups mixing with one another.


I know you're Galla yourself, despite your fuc.king stupid username, and thus don't understand shi.t.

I'm learning stuff on these despicable Bantu savages. Thanks Sholla Addis.

They've also been trying hard to assimilate themselves into Somalis and even claim that they're Somalis.

They approach Somalis by rehearsing the Cushitic bullsh.it and that they're Muslims like Somalis.

Beware of Galla. Better trust the devil than a fuc.king Bantu Galla.

Brother Somaliman.

Oromo are deadly when it comes to assimilation. I'm not sure whether you've seen videos of Oromo men professing to be Somalis while studying clans in Somali society. An oromo will become a complete Somali in one generation, with no sense of pride or heritage.

You may have understood that the Oromo will quickly absorb and capture your territory, culture, and faith. Despite the fact that they claim to be Somali, lately some people persuade other young or uninformed Somalis "people that Ethiopia is our friend and Somalia is our adversary." Those are the Oromo who assimilated in Somalia during the Derg regime.

Ma maqli jirtey, "Ciirtaada dhamaa, caydaada yaqaan"! I hope you write Somali.

For instance, this bas.tard - ittuabafarda - who's been posting crap with regard to the curent infamous MoU, under a thread titled with, "My Dear Somalia and Ethiopia! Show Wisdom", whom I slammed, as he was talikng out of his arse, despite his very advanced age, as he's no younger than 80 years from his own crap. He's a fuc.king dirty Galla, who was welcomed in Somalia with open arms and who was provided with free housing, money, and education at university, jobs etc. He lived in Somalia more than 20 years before moving to the US as a Somali refugee from Ogaden. And he's now insulting Somalis and Siad Barre, calling him loser Afweyne, despite Siad Barre having had an enormous sympathy for these savage Galla, and is now here on this forum asking us (Somalis) to show wisdom so that his dirty clown kin could misappropriate our land and resources before our own eyes.

No wonder they say, "No good deed goes unpunished".

Galla are ungrateful. See how they're treating the same Amhara that made them humans beings.

This fuc.ker doesn't know that I know his itinerary.

No, I haven't seen such a video.

By the way, yesterday, I watched a video in which a Somali politician from the north was discussing the current issue. He was also saying that a good number of people claiming to be Issak were in reality originally Oromo. I don't know whether you know him, his name is Jamaal Ibraahin Shabeel. Yesterday was the first time that i stumbled across him on YouTube. His intellectual calibre and depth are well advanced. Here's the video.

In Addis, I grew up with them and went to school with them. My family is from Ginir, Bale, so I am extremely familiar with their way of thinking and acting. During the Derg Siyad Bare welcome, Oromo were given everything the state had to offer, with one of their leaders, Ibrahim Bliso, betraying the hospitality Somalia had extended to them. However, what gives Somalia great hope is that Oromo are by nature submissive if you have the upper hand, so Somalia is in a better position.

As far as some tribes in Somalia whose origins are Oromo, of course, people who live in Gabiley and Tog Wajaale are Oromo who assimilated the tribe Jama mentioned in the video you posted, which is why those who always promote this garbage "Somaliland" are in that area.

After watching the video, Mr. Jama eloquently explains that the so-called MoU is nothing more than a land grab orchestrated by the Ethiopian government. Given the situation in the Siti region, all cities inhabited by Somali ethnic groups were removed between Djibouti and Dire Dawa and populated by Afar ethnic groups. The plan is to remove all Somali ethnic groups at the edge of Zayla and then move inside Somalia.

I'm delighted Somalia's president is aware of and working to prevent the mischief perpetrated by some people who put the country in peril, those people reside in Gabiley. You guessed it!! the birthplace of Musa Bihi. And it is clear that they are not pure Somali.

U mean the Somali tribe that lives there assimilated gallas there it cant be the other way around Since Wajaale is not close to the Oromia region. I doubt there is any out of the ordinary Galla influx in north western Somalia how ever the beg culture of the Galla destroy Somali society . How ever we must be vigilant if the gallas try to learn Somali they want to blend in and this can create Security problem in the Long term.

The majority of impoverished Jarso adopt Somali culture and incorporate people from Gabiley. There are six subclans in Jarso, and Itti Oromo settled in Tog Wajaale and Gabiley for years as cheap labor.

The Sa'ad Muse clan, on the other hand, are business-minded and farmers; they assimilated those Oromos into their tribes, along with Arabs and Indians who were once residents of Berbera.

Why are these people so adamant about the fragmentation of Somalia, if their blood is truly Somali?

i dont think the secession bid has anything to do with their blood being poluted with indian arab or galla blood line, i think its mere political. I dont hardly blame only them Its the entire People of the north that feel affected from being marginalized, the Southerners should also take responsibility in order to adress this grievances . i am of the opinion that the south isnt doing much to accommodate the northerners into a union. i remember seeing a professor from Awdal Adam Samatar being a unionist tot he core who changed it and now is a separatist.

This is the problem we cant wholeheartedly blame the north for wanting to separate if the south doesn't want to share wealth or leadership
There has never ever been a president of Somalia from the north never isnt that strange 64 years since the republic existed
I believe if union is to be re created then the concession of unity has to come from the south and welcome their brothers
Others wise we will always be divided then we can predict that we will be mini states and become statelite states of Ethiopia Puntland Somaliland.
Its now or never to create a strong unified Somalia, but we need good leadership to do that.
President farmaajo was good he suggested that he was willing to give the Presidency of Somalia to The president of Somaliland in order to find unity, i am not sure if that was true or genuine from his side but thats is a step. in order for unity to exist we need to make some good concessions.

There is no other way
