Faarax, adeer we know what Islamic Courts did. We also know what they did not do. No one denies that good things Courts brought to somalis but to suggest that their emergence ended the somali civil war is a quite leap Perhaps you are correct.(although i cant correctly recall suggesting they ended it?). *Sorry cant wish the dbdhfl curse on you*

^Dammit,how soon? Militia's dont run away,they retreat i thought? Anyway, may the curse of the dhabdhlf be with you as well Ohh one last thing, SL doesnt have a militia,they have an ARMY.

If it's a choice between two evils, however, I'd still side with Somaliland over Puntland. And with that comment,it is fair game to refer to you as a self hating secessionist. Poster beware Anyway,may the curse of the dabadhlf be with you.

But her perception of conflict resolution---or conflict management for that matter---is so embarrassingly primitive that it renders her long write up to a mere outbursts. Why would any informed Somali individual deny the root cause of Somali conflict and pretend that the brief six-month Islamic Courts rule on some parts of the country ended the Somali civil war? Well,that doesnt undercut Warmoog's points however,does it? While it did not of course end the civil war,the brief period did show that SOMALIS are after all capabable of being above what has haunted them for Years. To deny this is of course being the proverbial ostrich. I have to agree with you though,Warmoog was a bit too cynical even for my standards(and you know me),Sometimes,you have to hope for the best and while this "peace agreement" can be classifed as a farce, i believe there should be some sort of compromise somewhere along the road. You cant keep fighting,sometime you have to wave the white flag.

When you are displaced from home,you will do meniel jobs. I have seen and witnessed far worse things. I have seen somalis prositutes,I have seen somali thieves and thugs,others i have seen include somalis begging and digging the trashes for food,Somalis doing drugs and alcohol and Somalis killing for loot. And these are the ones who actually live in towns and cities. Others who arent lucky are sent to refugee camps. They live in shanty tin houses in a 100+ degree weather in the harshest farthest parts of the country. The only food they eat is the Genetically manufactured grains from US AID. This kid is hard working and you shouldnt feel sorry for him. Commend him for his hard work,at least his pride didnt stop him from earning money. What you should do is speak up against the men who are obstacles to progress and peace in Somalia and challenge them to have dialogue and finally build the nation. Until so,you will see worse things bro. Unfortunatly I have witnessed this...

New electoral mappings today from NBC. Check this out. While this could change anytime,i am optimistic this is the path for the presidency? By shifting focus from OH/FL and expanding the field to western states,Team Obama did some fine tuning really. Here are Obs's numbers. Between base + Leans, he has a total of 210. electoral votes. Base Obama: CA, CT, DE, DC, HI, IL, ME, MD, MA, NY, RI, VT, WA (168 electoral votes) Lean Obama: NJ, MN, OR, WI (42 votes) Lean McCain: AK, GA, IN, MT, NC, ND, SD (53 votes) Base McCain: AL, AZ, AR, ID, KS, KY, LA, MS, NE, OK, SC, TN, TX, UT, WV, WY (136 votes) Mccain;s Numbers from Base to Lean = 189electoral votes. Toss-up: CO, FL, IA, MI, MO, NV, NM, NH, OH, PA, VA (139 votes) Now,lets say Mccain does well in all the toss ups and gets 70+ from FL OH,VA,NV,NH. ALL Obama needs is just 60 . He could easily get those votes from PA(21) + CO(9)+ IA(7) + MI(17)+ MO(11) to give him 65 votes. Plausible numbers? What do you think? anyone who has better path than this map?

Originally posted by Abtigiis & Tusbax: Farax Brawn, Don't forget those words, as they will haunt you in no time. I have never ran away from my words. But,seriously,you guys are buying into the RNC spin machine. Mccain has flipp'd on almost every issue on this campaign and NOT A SINGLE mention of it in the media. Obama uses one word,and theres a furor? That is double standard. They set the bar too high for the black man in hopes that he falls. Why cant the old white man be grilled as such?

Originally posted by STOIC: ^^"Stuff and Nonesense" (I always wanted to use this word only on you ) Now lets move on, It is politics my dear Ngonge and of course Obama is calculating on what will propel him to the presidency. It was his youth and inexperience and today it is his policy shifts (on guns, Child rapist and public finance).Yes some of the liberal blogosphere (Huffington & Co) might be irritated with his centrist view, but Obama has a bigger agenda here. It is no secret that Obama has always believed in the second Amendment (right to bear Arms). He is moving to the center to appeal to very important voting block-Undecided voters-who will more than likely vote. In places like Georgia where this election will be more than likely a swing state Obama had to appeal to them in a less partisan division. This is really scaring the old guards Republicans.Politicians always move to the center to court some more support once they got their supporters on their behind.It is time to reach out to the undecided voters.There is a much reality in this shift as in the cause of winning the election. Obama Knows here he is playing with fire, but he knows that his supporters will file behind him in November. No politician often views his political demands as a matter of principle.In spite of Obama’s impressive charges of separating himself from the crowd he is still a politician and will do anything to assimilate his views with the dominant force (in this case the undecided voters).As you and I know politicians are elite bargainers who channel through the popular desires of their voters.Please drop this attitude of Obama is a good tissue he can never be wrong! You know,There was some sloppy reporting on the media's end. Obama hasnt moved to the center,its just the media that are catching up to him. His stance on Iraq for instance has been consistent,from the get go. He said it in debates/in 60 minutes that he always had the right to reserve judgment and he will move only on the words of the commanders and or the situation on the ground. His gun policies were the same,he is a moderate and he is a religious fella. Of course the RNC machine,propelled by the media will say anything.

Did i tell yall,i talked to this man once? He sounded weak,for a president.

It’s a simple as cause and effect; the people had their homes, their lives when the clowns ran away to Asmara adeer. But again I am talking to Farax Brown, a good fellow though ill informed.

I am also falttered that you place such effort and accord respect to the Dukes numerous messages on SOL. Keep it up I will keep it up. Its not flattering,its Flattening your filthy lies. Respect is not,rebuking you it is. Numerous messages its not,Nacnac it is. Anywhuu,Lets talk in say 2months,in which time the Ethiopians will commit genocide and you start a topic about how Castro is a she-male or something like that.

Originally posted by General Duke: Castro et al I do fear the Ethiopians more than any warlord and any Somali actors. A 70 million population and a tough organized army is something to take into account. Also one must ask serious questions especially of the position one holds. My stance is based on reason and logic and not burdinternational law, the needs of the country and the interest of the The answer to my question was The UN Security Council, the AU and the international have since then made clear that the Ethiopians involvement is no more than the Ugandan’s, Burundians, Rwandans and other AU nations. Also the US and other powers are involved and thus guarantee my states sovereignty. Nice try though. Before you know,you will say something completely opposite of this one year from now. But,I,the anti-thesis of Duke,on behalf of all sensible people,will Inshallah ALLAH quote you on this and use it in my signatures one year from now.

I used to think the reason why them older men feasted on xabxab was because of its softness,Kumbe(ileen),they have all along known its potent power haye? read..on..L0L By BETSY BLANEY, Associated Press Writer Thu Jul 3, 7:45 AM ET A slice of cool, fresh watermelon is a juicy way to top off a Fourth of July cookout and one that researchers say has effects similar to Viagra — but don't necessarily expect it to keep the fireworks all night long. Watermelons contain an ingredient called citrulline that can trigger production of a compound that helps relax the body's blood vessels, similar to what happens when a man takes Viagra, said scientists in Texas, one of the nation's top producers of the seedless variety. Found in the flesh and rind of watermelons, citrulline reacts with the body's enzymes when consumed in large quantities and is changed into arginine, an amino acid that benefits the heart and the circulatory and immune systems. "Arginine boosts nitric oxide, which relaxes blood vessels, the same basic effect that Viagra has, to treat erectile dysfunction and maybe even prevent it," said Bhimu Patil, a researcher and director of Texas A&M's Fruit and Vegetable Improvement Center. "Watermelon may not be as organ-specific as Viagra, but it's a great way to relax blood vessels without any drug side effects." Todd Wehner, who studies watermelon breeding at North Carolina State University, said anyone taking Viagra shouldn't expect the same result from watermelon. "It sounds like it would be an effect that would be interesting but not a substitute for any medical treatment," Wehner said. The nitric oxide can also help with angina, high blood pressure and other cardiovascular problems, according to the study, which was paid for by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. More citrulline — about 60 percent — is found in watermelon rind than in the flesh, Patil said, but that can vary. But scientists may be able to find ways to boost the concentrations in the flesh, he said. Citrulline is found in all colors of watermelon and is highest in the yellow-fleshed types, said Penelope Perkins-Veazie, a USDA researcher in Lane, Okla. She said Patil's research is valid, but with a caveat: One would need to eat about six cups of watermelon to get enough citrulline to boost the body's arginine level. "The problem you have when you eat a lot of watermelon is you tend to run to the bathroom more," Perkins-Veazie said. Watermelon is a diuretic and was a homeopathic treatment for kidney patients before dialysis became widespread. Another issue is the amount of sugar that much watermelon would spill into the bloodstream — a jolt that could cause cramping, Perkins-Veazie said. Patil said he would like to do future studies on how to reduce the sugar content in watermelon. The relationship between citrulline and arginine might also prove helpful to those who are obese or suffer from type-2 diabetes. The beneficial effects — among them the ability to relax blood vessels, much like Viagra does — are beginning to be revealed in research. Citrulline is present in other curcubits, like cucumbers and cantaloupe, at very low levels, and in the milk protein casein. The highest concentrations of citrulline are found in walnut seedlings, Perkins-Veazie said. "But they're bitter and most people don't want to eat them," she said.

^You are with the program adeer Kudos!
