^^ What rank? Start the thread warya..here, I'm going to help you out with this:

I was going to say second in and all that but it doesn't matter anymore. This place seems to be dead these days.

^^ Ok. You got our attention. Now start to talk sense please.

^^ Hassan Sheikh and his lot seem to have confused poor indhacade when they told him to join the Dam Jadeed (new blood) government. Waxa la yedhi, he's always been fond of spilling new blood.

By ABDIRAHMAN MOHAMED DIRYE 03/13/2013 22:01 Ever since I was born I could hear the waves of hatred and prejudice pouring upon Jews for unexplained reasons. Ever since I was born I could hear the waves of hatred and prejudice pouring upon Jews for unexplained reasons, but apparently associated with the Arab-Israeli conflict, which Somalia was not a part of. During Siad Barre (Somali dictator from 1969 to 1991), there was an Arabization program in Somalia that entailed the hatred of Jews as part of a standardized process of Arabization of our formerly non-Arab country. When crisis erupted in Somalia and the lights went out in the 1990s, it became obvious that Somalia had been abandoned; no country acted to alleviate the Somalis’ enormous suffering. Somalia has received various kinds of aid over the years, from various sources, but in the post-Cold War era, as Somalia’s strategic importance to the great world powers has waned, the country has effectively been left to rot. Its healthcare infrastructure, for example, is damaged to a degree which seems irreparable. Somalis seeking urgent medical care thus must often cross the border into Ethiopia, or seek treatment further abroad. I am not a doctor by profession, but have served for many years as an interpreter for Somalis seeking medical care in Ethiopia. It was in this capacity that Special Adviser to the President of Somalia Dr. Omar Dihoud and I met with Mohammed Mohamud and Farah on March 4 at the Nati Hotel in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, prior to their 9 p.m. departure for Tel Aviv. It was a remarkable occasion for all of us. The two young men were overjoyed, but also a little shocked; they hadn’t expected anything other than rejection from the Israelis they had been taught all their lives to consider “immortal enemies.” “When we were told Israeli embassy in Addis Ababa had granted us the visas, it blew our minds!” said “We’re grateful to the Hadassah organization that offered us to treat us. We’ve life threatening injuries and yet no money” to go to Germany for similar treatment, added, explaining that “[the treatment] costs a minimum of $100,000 for each of us.” “Our people, friends and families phoned us from all over the world when they heard the good news” Mohammed said with a broad smile. Their phones kept ringing all night long. Whether their treatment is successful or not, one thing is certain: the Hadassah organization’s place in the hearts of these two young men is secure Mohammed’s CT scan results are in front of me: “hyperdense foreign body noted (displaced skull bone fragment) ... Conclusion: (1) right occipito post-traumatic encephalomalacic cyst, (2) dense foreign body in the cranial cavity....” According to Mohammed, the foreign body lodged in his skull, is a bullet, which he says is the reason he’s paralyzed. His condition is critical, but treatment wasn’t available in Somalia or Ethiopia, so he was obliged to seek treatment overseas. However, he couldn’t afford the treatment, and had given up hope. Enter the State of Israel. Israel, which has one of the best healthcare systems in the world today, offered to fly Mohammed and Farah to Jerusalem, a holy city for Muslims, Jews and Christians alike, via Tel Aviv for the delicate surgery. Moreover, this wasn’t a unique occurrence; Israel has been engaged in this type of activity for quite some time, and hopefully will continue to do so until Somalia can rebuild its shattered health infrastructure. By way of comparison, in reply to those like Mohammed and Farah seeking health care assistance abroad, Saudi Arabian philanthropists say: We finance Madrassa and Haj tours for specific people who contacted our hidden representatives in Hargaysa or Islamabad. Indeed, the Saudis are obsessed with spreading the radical Wahabi cult to the poor masses of Somalia, and are prepared to give alms only if doing so serves this end. While willing to fund places of worship – as long as they fall in line with the Saudi brand of Islam – the Saudis at the same time, fuel so-called “jihad” from Afghanistan to Somalia, and bribe the major oil companies to prevent oil exploration in the Horn of Africa and beyond. In fact, it is Saudi “aid” that has kept Somalia at war for the past six years. The Al-Haramayn and Muntada Islami organizations feed orphans in Hargaysa and Mogadishu, true – but indoctrinate them at the same time. Raising jihadis under the banner of feeding the poor is an activity the Saudis have been engaged in since at least the 1990s. To truly care for an orphan is to raise them into adults capable of living independently, not into jihadis whose only purpose is to increase the number of new orphans. I call on Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud to make a trip to the Holy Land, instead of wasting time in countries whose influence and contribution is quite limited, or comes with strings attached. Israel, the Silicon Valley of the Middle East, has the ability to help turn Somalia into a paradise in a short period – if our leaders can find the courage to ask. Many Somalis are unaware of the fact that Jews and Christians fall in the same category according to Islam: People of The Book (Ahlukitab in Arabic), and that it is no more wrong to seek help from Israel than from the predominantly Christian West. And we need to ask for the help of each, on grounds of common humanity rather than religious affiliation, clan or color. The Somali public is highly appreciative of Israel’s assistance to those in dire need, and will remain close friends with the people of Israel forever.

^^ :D

^^ Did you tell her you were Siciid and you were farxaaan too? Edit: I see from yesterday's posts that Rahima did not know of my awful history and the ownership of a gay dog!

^^ All this happened while I was talking to my wife on the phone. She carried on having a normal conversation until she heard the swearing and then decided to join in from her end with "tell him this" and "tell him that" and "dogs should not be let loose in parks" etc, etc..

^^ Just the one with the dogs, saaxib. Walking in the park on my way home when a massive dog appears from nowhere and starts bearing its teeth and barking at me. All of a sudden, another dog appears from nowhere and attacks the first dog. Then the owner of the first dog also appears from nowhere and starts telling me to control my dog ()! I struggle to explain that neither dog is mine (whilst keeping an eye on the two big brutes biting chunks out of each other) when the owner of the second dog comes running over and shouts at us telling us to control our dog. Anyway, the managed to control their dogs but they were both swearing at each other and ME! Only when I raised my voice above everyone (including the dogs) did they both calm down and sort of apologise to me.

Aha! Aha!

^^ I am not too bothered with the story because none of the sides arguing about it on SOL really make it that interesting, Xiin. A&T would have made it interesting.

^^ But they keep the internet working? I love IT workers.

This is good news. It means A&T will grace these pages any time now.

^^ Have you heard the fox's mating call? They scream like a woman being attacked. In the summer, I hear it from the park behind my house almost every single night and I still can't get used to it. Anyway, what's underdog suprised about? I thought in his part of the world the "local" streets are teeming with bears.

^^ Even though it's Liverpool and we are bound to mess it up but our final ten games (on paper at least) are much easier than Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea's. We've already played all the big teams and only have Everton and Chelsea at home that could be considered BIG games. Never say never saaxib.

^^ It was international women's day, Oz. The crazy woman did that stunts BECAUSE it was international women's day. I thought I would attract the attention of my younger brothers (excluding Apophis) to how unpredictable women were when dealing with any situation. In other words, women are mad. Understand that idea and you'll begin to find a way to understand how to live with them.

The curious i.d.i.o.t died picking up the IED (improvised explosive device), he saved a village. He turned his neck to swear at the woman driver only to crash into a stopping bus. His phone rang in the middle of the prayer; he took a look at the number before ignoring the call. He approached the police checkpoint; he avoided eye contact even though he had nothing to hide. He was born under a tree; they buried him in a magnificent tomb. She found her son’s drugs when she was dong the washing, she wondered if she should tell her husband. He scaled the wall and picked the fruits from the tree when he saw the angry watchman running towards him. She embraced and kissed her lover while her toddler was accidently calling his dad. He was telling his pupils the importance of concentration and focus when he realised that his fly was undone. He was confessing his undying love to her. Behind him, her father was approaching.

^^ Manager's fault really. He had Lucas and Gerrard playing against three in the middle. He fixed it AFTER we went two down. p.s. Caga dhigo warya.

lol@Faheema and her problem with heaters in London and air con in carabta. (sounds like you're the problem)

^^ I am always proud of myself. Wiilashan waa in wax loo sheego or they will never learn dee.
