^ even you doubt yourself to find anything. are we seriously expected to believe this stuff concocted by the liberal media. too many Muslims these days with their victim mentality. its not impressive. who needs the approval of fox news. the interview was edited probably 15 times.

this interview doesn't seem believable. they gave him a nice suit and all of sudden he is a good Samaritan. the liberal media is the enemy of Muslims. its patronizing Muslims. its makes a mockery for Muslims. look at the presenter making a mockery of him.

ok fair enough. he is using the cabbying to pay for his medical degree. he could have stolen the money. this story doesn't add up. its a lie. its something the liberal media conjured up to make Muslims seem nicer than they actually are.

not interested in the exploits of Muslim cabbies and shop keepers. where are the scientist, political reformers and astronauts.

I am going for a cig break brb.

lol. what is ibtisam ur sister or something.

lol. what is ibtisam ur sister or something.

health?? - that is the worst incentive. i have a better chance of dying in my home. smoking alone wont kill me. its take about 60 odds years to kill you. lol. my biggest worry is the how much money i am spending on it.

It a dirty habit. i hate it. but i cant resist it. i have used patches and all the other stuff. completely useless.

i watched the programme. it was boring. i didnt like the confused muslim- the bengali graphic designer. he represented a new brand of muslims. I thought martin was ok. i didnt like the black convert who was a former skin head who hated pakistanis but accepted them after realising they were muslims. i watched the programme alright. and boy was it boring. thanks alot for wasting a decent sunday evening.

imagine if i posted a boring programme, like the one you did, would you watch it. you encourage us to watch it, only for you to say it was not good. have you ever reviewed a programme before? i wont be watching anything you ever post up from now. you have really wasted my time.

disruption? that was 19 years ago. with no proper education system and war. peoples accents have taken a turn for the worse. lol koodh/jaakad - i use both but they have different meaning. koodh = coat jaakad = jacket. these words are not even somali. lol. and you talk about standard somali. how do you say coat in italian, wasnt somalia an italian colony? how comes all these word are all english. is that because of english being a lingua franca of the world.

Xenophobia is morally repugnant and justifying it, as you seem to have, on the policies of the BBC is even more odious. I don't know what you stand for but I for don't share such sentiments. If you don't agree with what the BBC is doing, take it up with them.

That is what the ignorant always say. They mistake intelligence and knowledge for arrogance. It is not arrogant to know more nor is it arrogant to stand up against xenophobia and bigotry. It's an honor to be grouped with Christopher Hitchens, he's one of my heroes. I gather you only like arguing for the sake of arguing.

^^ in future, maybe you should be sure of what you post up. u didnt even like the programme u wanted us to watch. that shuddy if you ask me.

who cares. anyways we should cater for diversity. people are different. i am proud of my regional accent.

ok lets not insult each other and stop calling names, we are in the same campaign here. some people like your good self can clearly think outside the box but the majority of people are a result of their environment. so if people are continually indoctrinated in the most subtle ways, they will eventually accept the coverage to be true.

what do you mean?. the BBC is the enemy of ethnics. its starting a war. a media war to single out the Muslims and blacks and other ethnics to the majority white audience. even the commission for racial equality have raised concerns about the activities of the BBC. I am afraid your comments are wasted in these discussions. stick to defending logic.

liberal media hyperbole. The BBC is deliberately putting too many ethnic faces on TV - disproportionate to the number of ethnic minorities. no wonder there is an increase in xenophobia and attacks on on muslims, blacks and ethnics.

what were you up to all these years.

Dear Diary, When will I get out of my dead-end routine? and explore the world I continually dream about day after day after day after months and months and years!
