But benefits are better in the Scandinavian countries. And the Somalis there are no were near as horrible as the ones in the U.K. The UK Somalis are the oldest Somali community in the diaspora. But benefits are an issue in the UK.

I was recently in the U.K. I go there about every other year. And I can't help but notice how they are an exact copy of our cousins in Somalia. The situation seems worse every time I return. Unemployed, broke, khat addicts, loitering everywhere, unambitious What is wrong with this community? Every other immigrant group is a success story in the U.K. except the Somalis. Somali diaspora is shitty but the UK Somalis are on another level.

Obviously the vast area occupied by Ethiopia.

I am a proud Somali from Western Somalia.

No, not 1000 years but in our generations time. Speak to anyone in Mogadishu or Hargeisa or even the recent refugees who joined us in the West; condom use and sex before marriage is widespread among the youth. This was unthinkable just 5 years ago. And Somalia is no longer dry... you can easily find alcohol. Forget about marijuana. Your sons will be punished if they try to hurt a homosexual or a disbeliever. Laws will be in place then which will make sure they are thrown into dungeons if they dare to even engage in hate speech, forget about laying a finger. I will never forget a video I've seen where an Al Jazeera journalist recorded an Al Shabab thug forcing a shop keeper to prayer who was clearly unhappy and was hesitant to do so. It was only the AK that made him follow the order. This is your typical Somali back home. They are not like the few Arab bootyclapper traitors who have held my people hostage. The bootyclappers want to destroy my people but you won't be successful. If I trace back to my last known ancestor, every single name is Arab. Every single one. Not a single Somali name. This is the case for many Somalis. The Arab bootyclappers are the real enemy of the Somali people. You call me slave of Johnson but I am really slave of Ahmed. My slave master is an Arab according to my abtirsi. I am like African American John Thompson from St Louis or Crystal Lee from Houston. Somalis like me can read Arabic but can't read Somali. I can recite the Arab's book I've memorized but dont know Somali poems. You will not humilate us any further.

Slave of Disney's Sky God, Anything that moves is killed and raped and robbed in Somalia. Even the stray dogs are not safe. Dying at the hands of the uncivilized while trying to civilize them is nothing short of dignified martyrdom. Atheism and homosexuality exists in Somalia in levels similar to that in the West and in fact one Somali MP openly called for gay marriage to be legalized a few years ago. It'll be only be a matter of time before it becomes a reality in our ancestral homeland. More of our people will get access to the internet and Western influence will start to creep into our cities. Nomads now have data connection and are making calls from the deep bush while travelling with their camels. Times have certainly changed and this is only the beginning. This is my promise to you that in no time Xaliimos will be openly drinking Heineken at Liido beach. I want you to remember in the future that it was AbdiJohnson that told you this first

I am here to civilize you. Human rights are not negotiable. Keep your beliefs to your self; Somali society will and should conform to the appropriate and correct values. Its not a matter of if but when that happens. I am confident future aid will have conditions attached and the corrupt thieves will bend over. Ironic that Somali corruption will have a positive impact on changing our future for the better. If we were to allow your values to be unchanged, Bantus and the untouchable minorities would still be worth less than barn animals. Somalia will no longer be a zoo. I will not sit back and allow you to deny people their rights and mistreat them and accept the foolish, "Its our culture" line. If you are against gay marriage, dont have one. Simple. You're not being forced into anything. You will be forced to leave other people alone. Dont apply your beliefs on those who don't want anything to do with it. Your beliefs allows for slavery; is society just supposed to sit back and allow people to be kidnapped and shackled so they can wipe your floors and get down on all fours?

You have got to be shitting me. I remember famine money being collected by students in my class and being told the Canadian government would match private donations. Jewish aid workers had to claim Westerm nationalities in Dadaab so children wouldn't refuse food from them and even avoid death I am also in favour of polygamy and hope the West legalizes it over here. But not your kind of polygamy where 10 year old girls are forced into marriage with an old horny man. I've seen this occur with my own eyes so no point denying it. It is as Somali as khat. I'm referring to marriages with consenting and of age adults (i.e. a woman with 10 husbands or a husband with 3 wives). We must all promote human rights for all people no matter where they live

Refrain from insulting me; its against the rules. You have to be tolerant of different views and different people. This is why Somalia is in its situation today. Let's move forward or the rest of the world will leave us behind. The Somalis love to discriminate against minorities; they say clan minorities are half of what a noble Somali is. 0.5 out of 1. I will fight anyone who insists on threatening any kind of minority or wishes to take away their unalienable human rights

I am getting annoyed at there being no strings attached when it comes to aid given to Africa, in particularly Somalia. Somalia needs to improve its human rights record. This continent is rife with abuse and intolerance and its time the Western world put a stop to this. They have the power. They have the leverage. For damn sakes, these people can't build roads or schools on their own. Aid should only be given with Western conditions. The U.S. and its allies must force gay marriage, an end of child slavery as well as an end to FGM and other African barbarism. I don't only think of this as a human rights issue but also when it comes to immigration. Thousands of Somalis, and hundreds of thousands of Africans, come to the West by boat risking their lives for the Western dream. This doesn't have to happen anymore. The Africans want Western life and so work should be done there like it has happened in the other places that wanted Western lifestyles

Congratulations are not in order; the next "President" was selected by bribed illiterate thugs, pirates and warlords. There should be free and fair elections in this new state. The residents should have voted. The Somalis are beyond reform. Whats with the low standards that we have? We are content with God, khat and camels. Titles like the one on this topic do Somalis and Africans a disservice.

Silanyo is a senile octogenarian bum who should be in a continuing care facility. His shameless efforts in stacking his clan grandchildren in government positions that should have been rewarded based on merit has not gone unnoticed. He is no different than Hassan Sheikh Mohamoud or Robert Mugabe. KULMIYE, ZANU PF and the ANC are all sister political parties cut from the same cloth

The so called president of the so called "federal" republic of Somalia is a clown and an obvious corrupt African illiterate thief. We don't need Xosh, his clown clone, to tell us this. Xosh was disbarred by the Law Society of Upper Canada for welfare fraud. He's a shameless man who is just as despicable as the AMISOM protected clan militia leader masquerading as a president. They both should be behind bars.

Happy independence day to Somalia as well as Canada and my neighbors to the south who celebrate their big day on Saturday. May our nations continue to be prosperous and my best wishes for Greater Somalia, the land of my forefathers and ethnic group

Reer U.K. are low income. I will be going there in a few days and I am afraid I will lose weight due to their small portion meals.

Yes. But I like to keep my beliefs private.

You may call me Slave of Western Values as well. Don't limit yourself

How is this determined? My last name is my grandfather's fathers name. Would I give my future kids my last name? Would I give them my name? Do I change my last name to my fathers name and give them my name as their last name? Do you share the same last name as your father?

Somali militias from all parts of Somalia should defend the honour of the Somali people and invade K5. The Galgaduud militias did an honourable thing by attempting to take territory from Ethiopia. Jubbaland, Southwest, Somaliland, Puntland and Khatuumo should do the same. Somalia is one.

Puntland is the same as Mogadishu. There needs to be a revolution in the capital and all of the lala lands.

What's the point of having a constitution when the Somalians don't abide by it? And the authorities and courts don't make judgements according to it? Federalism is not understood by the illiterate Somalis. They should stop talking about a word they can barely pronounce

The old geezer should step down. And hold elections. He's incompetent

I know one guy who had to pay the tax in order to visit his family. You know what I don't object to this because there is little corruption over there and the money is used for the nation. Although its for the armed forces for the most part at least its used in a proper manner. Unlike the Somalians. I would not trust paying any tax to any Somali authority. But Eritrea is a hellhole... a well managed hellhole

Tax revenue is used to pay the khat and salaries of soldiers and senior civil servants. The rest is stolen for homes in London and businesses in Dubai and Nairobi
