  1. The Zulu criminal gang leader is on record urging his dancing brainless tugs to attack foreigners.
  2. There are many factors responsible for this resultt such as: 1. SNP 2. Tactical voting 3. UKIP distortion and 4. Disappointment with the liberals.
  3. 1. Murdering Christian fellow travellers despite risking their lives sneaking into a Christian continent!! 2. Begging for rescue, acceptance, aid, and hospitality from European Christians while killing their brothers in faith!! 3. Expecting humanity and mercy from Christians while lacking these fundamental qualities themselves!! 4. Relaying on the sympathy, food handouts, shelter, and other charitable acts from Catholic churches once in Italy and Malta but still killing Christians for no reason other than their faith!! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3042001/Aid-agency-says-41-migrants-feared-dead-new-sea-tragedy.html
  4. <cite> @malistar2012 said:</cite> 18 may maalinta qahsinka Toghdeer Where is Toghdeer? Is it the village in Burundi where your president's bodyguards come from?
  5. ^ Good but keep documenting all the dirt and trash which clogs our towns.
  6. It looks like all those who have fallen from grace and abandoned their culture or religion or both have washed up in Mogadishu's shores. Where are the good-cultured God-fearing ones?
  7. Isn't Garowe a town in Somalia where Hassan is the president?
  8. <cite> @Mooge said:</cite> niyoow I will be there July 20th. my friends keep saying bosaso docks are most romantic place to take your girl, well i will see what the fuzz is all about. six of us are going to Puntland for consultation. i will travel to garowe and then to EYL. i will go to Talex after that and will fly from Galkaio. if you are in Hargeisa, don't wait for me because I will not visit, but if you are in Puntland, send me message privately. Mooge I am an immigration officer in the border crossing between Somaliland and Somalia close to Garowe, so don't forget to have your necessary documents ready for inspection before travelling to Taleex niyow. Anyway, take some good pictures of the places.
  9. <cite> @Saalax said:</cite> There is a reason I don't pay attention to the barking of their likes, because back home they are basically nothing while I am somebody well known.That is great, everybody should focus on bettering their people. I am getting wider related circles involved who have connections to top officials in the Middle East and Europe in bettering our lands inshallah. Saalax I admire what you do for your people but spare us the self-righteousness please. And if you think being known amounts to something remember that basically ever Somali is well known among his or her relatives in a little dusty clan village or ghetto somewhere in the Horn of Africa. Even in Hargeisa where over a million people live there are some half-naked mentally ill people well known for there mental illness. Name recognition means nothing niyow.
  10. He is appealing to his clan voters just like the other guy from the other so called party does when he goes to certain villages and ghettos.
  11. <cite> @Mooge said:</cite> Burao is looking good. that monument to Tuur should be guarded heavily in case siilanyo supporters want to deface it. lol. They can not deface it because it is in Saalax's clan ghetto. The clan ghettos in Somaliland are separated by Berlin style wall.
  12. Although ZAAD and the other mobile money transfer services are as susceptible to abuse as any other business, their beneficial impact on the welfare of the Somalis is undisputed. Before the advent of this technology people used to carry around their money and many lost it to robbery and theft. However now all one has to do is carry his/her humble mobile phone. I think Somali authorities in every part of the Horn should demand more control and transparency from these companies to make it difficult for terrorists to use them.
  13. <cite> @Alpha Blondy said:</cite> ^nonsense. by the way have you heard about the three-legged donkey in Burao. i heard it the other day and its funny walahi. so much hype surrounding this donkey. All donkeys have three hind legs dee :-D
  14. <cite> @Safferz said:</cite> No, not at all! Just the interest, funding and support/institutional commitment to bring this discussion to Harvard. It would be bringing everyone interested in developing this theoretical intervention and new line of inquiry/future directions for scholarship in one place, and following it up with a published collection of the essays they present there. The professors here have all been following closely and have been incredibly supportive. That is a good news for the study of our culture, language, history, and society if Harvard with its deep pockets is willing to fund reserch in Somali studies. This could indeed be a positive outcome of your campaign however controversial it might be.
  15. <cite> @Safferz said:</cite> Harvard has even insisted that it be the place to host conferences to theorize this new Somali Studies, and I have other projects underway. This must be a job offer from Harvard Safferz. I am I right?
  16. <cite> @Miyir said:</cite> lol flip flopper Well this debate is not like that long running Somali favourite 'my clan is better than your clan' nonsense where one is expected to stick to his/her clan's line till judgement day. It is about a topic I am not very familiar with and is being brought to us by an expert in the field. So unlike you I do have respect for the intellectual capacity of all the SOLers debating here and have appreciation for their well written contribution. Keeping my mind open to ideas from all sides does not mean I do not support our sister Saffrez and her intellectual and career development. I ask Almighty Allah to open all the doors of success for her.
  17. This happened several years ago. Those kids should be taught how to coexist peacefully with those different in culture, race, religion, and sexuality.
  18. <cite> @thefuturenow said:</cite> I rarely agree with Dr. K but he is right. This trend of scholarship is no scholarship. It is a reactive motion that underscores the power imbalance and highlights a latent inferiority complex in the author. It operates in many fields. Women studies, Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, African (American) Studies, etc. There are scholars in these fields that get away with a lifetime of reactive writings. The feminist claims women studies before her reek of the "patriarchal" delineation of the world. The Arab goes that these white men have the "orientalist" gaze and don't really understand us. And when the "cadaan" scholar armed with his prejudices reaches the conclusion that the African is savage, this type of scholarship yells out "no, the African is not savage. You cadaan people think they're savage because you're racist and privileged." In other words, the cadaan actually went and observed the people whom he called savages. He may be misinformed and reach conclusions that are fueled by prejudice. But so too would the African if he studied Europeans. Yet, this type of scholarship does not encourage the African to correct these prejudices with an actual counter-study. Instead, it tells the African that he--because of his sheer Africanness--knows better. That he is more privileged to speak on the topic because he is the subject of study. The insidious aim of those who encourage this type of study is a slow unraveling of actual scholarship which culminates in a form of censhorship. That is why we see the subject resort to a form of name-calling and label certain studies as products of the "colonial gaze" or "racist" or "misogynist." The subtle aim is to discourage debate and dismiss certain efforts as motivated by sheer prejudice. It is to reserve a certain area for study for a specific group because they are part of that studied group. I do not disagree with its utility as a preface to an academic work. But it cannot be scholarship by itself. It is lazy. It is territorial. And it is perpetuated by personal attacks. But most importantly, it is a way for the inferior, the subject of a prejudicial study to express his rage. All the while the master smiles. Because when history is read, it will say--"the African is a savage because of x, y, z." And African's response will be "that scholar is racist because he said x, y, z and it doesn't apply to me." The proper response should be--"the African is not x, y, z, rather he is a, b, c." That is a brilliant analysis. I was initially very critical of Safrez's twitter campaign but then I kept reading her articles and somehow I was lead to believe that maybe Western anthropologists don't value Somali contribution to the study of our culture and society. I am still learning.
  19. ^ I am afraid you will be disappointed in Hargeisa when a mountain of trash greets you at every street corner. London in the 16th century was actually more developed than Hargeisa in the 21st century. There are very few roads worth the name in Hargeisa and even those roads are chaotically clogged with all sorts of transport vehicles including donkeys. As there is no drainage system in the city the rough roads are transformed into raging rivers whenever it rains. The electricity is also more expensive there than any other place I have seen.
  20. I don't think family planning is illigal in Islam. It is probably just undesirable because according to a sahih Hadith the prophet(scw) questioned its usefulness given that every soul destined to be born will be born regardless of our intervention.
  21. <cite> @bilan said:</cite> Good riddance. I would have said the same thing had it not been for the fact that the deceased was himself a victim of an organised criminal group's vicious deception and brainwashing campaign.
  22. <cite> @Holac said:</cite> Was he trying to "cleanse his soul" after that modeling gig? What prompted this young man to go and die fighting for a terrorist group? My condolences to his family. AUN. The terrorist masterminds convince these young and naive people that joining their murder squard is the surest short cut to heaven. How sad that these young people are not capable of any logical reasoning with the terrorist recruiters.
  23. Dr Ken, Kenya like every other country will never build a wall inside its recognised borders. As for the Somalis, I think our humiliation and fall from grace is complete now that even the other Africans want to erect walls of steel and concrete to keep us at bay. We have become the despised new Gypsies of the world.
  24. <cite> @SomaliPhilosopher said:</cite> Lol @ careful consideration. And what about the security situation in Somalia, where the satanic black flag rises in many of the areas where these refugees come from? What future layeth there? Hello Mr SP. I am really shocked that you refered to a flag carrying the Islamic declaration of faith as Satanic!!
