Lets all from SOL sign under a petition and further deliver it to rest of other somali communities around our known adress, so to gather more signitures. Soon enough we'll get enough signitures so to convince the Swedish royal academy to nominate this sensational guy from minneapolis the Noble prize( belonging to our new category we will suggest "lingustics"). Maybe the comming year (after him) I might be nominated of having the ability of speaking the Norwegian/Swedish, English, Somali and Arabic languages quite fluently, and beat this white fu#ker who can speak Somali

Alisomali, so you basically identify as black because the "white mans world" tells you so? How pathetic,and disgusting really Somalis are Somali first then African and then global citizen. "Black" and "white" is a social construction mainly used in America, and stems from a racial hierarchy inherited from slavery times, and now they poison the world due to their strong position in the global media. You calling yourself "black" means that you are submitting to this social order and denying the great diversity in Africa and the rest of the world. Somalis and people from the congo are as much different biologicly as we are different from those who come from Yemen or Turkey. The majority of Somalis are a special African type that resides in the horn of Africa, as north Africans are a special type of people that resides in the north of Africa. I'm sorry but me and a person from Nigeria have nothing more in common than i have with a person from Korea or Sri Lanka, we only share the name of the great landmass called Africa (never mind the distance) and skin colour due to tropical sun radiation, nothing more. There is no common language family, there is no such thing as African culture that extends through the whole continent, and no historical connection between Somalis and Nigerians. So why accept this narrow minded grouping, just because of such a superficial thing as skin colour, which is a result of tropical adaptation and not biological connection? We shouldnt descend to irrational categories such as "black", "white", and "yellow" since they make no sense. Human diversity is not simplistic, and the diversity among us should be celebrated rather than oppresed by grouping people in such careless and unfounded divisions. Europeans can atleast be proud of being quite far ahead than Americans on realizing these redicoulas groupings.

People don't even look this relaxed in a movie theater.Of all the legislaters in the world you might think the ones in Somalia are the bussiest ones, where are the documents, pens, papers etc? Not even a single table to write on, the place is instead full of cameras and mobile phones as if they are in a consert hall. May God bless Somalia!

I say f3ck Somaliweyn, we seriously need to see what's the greatest benefit for all parties, there is never gonna be a whole united peacefull Somalia. Let Somaliland go there own way and may Allah bless them and make them a great economic partner with us, and we Puntlanders should focus on whats ours and try to keep up with the rest of the world which is moving at warp speed. If Moqdishu wants to be a battle ground of international enemies then please tell us the results when it comes, but we I'm sorry don't afford the time watching the game. There is no space for bullshit, Fu#k Somaliweyn, we can only succed when devided, time to face reality and see where our potential lies!

Please tell me this is a joke?? Oh wallah we are doomed, Wallahi billahi we are doomed as Somalis! How is it possible in these days and age that a high positioned minister such as Ghedi could say such a thing as " he him self (Abdullhi yusuf) is puntland...depending on large soldiers as puntland" and the incompetent prime- minister goes on saying " I'm highly sceptical because that would be the end of Abdullahi Yusuf and his so-called government" WTf? Seriously what kind of prime-minister in history has ever shown such weak loyalty to his government, as saying in public "his so-called government"? This is disgrace and a great scandal it only displays how weak this government is, and the whole country as well! I say all support to Cadde muse, he seems to be the only rational figure in this drama. F#ck somaliweyn, its just a dream, its own prime-minister doesnt even believe in it!

Emperor this pic below can't possibly be Somalia, back in the days, let alone contemporary somalia because the only city that remotly looked like this was moqdishu, and we all know moqdishu has no mountains as we can see in the background of this pic. how many of those buildings were build with white man's money? What do you mean "white mans money"? Ivory coast is very rich in natural resources, infact its really strange and bizzare that the whole of Africa by now does not have such cities as i posted above, considering all the wealth beneath the soil of the continent. If this is a serious vision and project, then mashallah!

Just look at Lebanon, the country was in total destruction and shambles after the civil war. since 1991 they have decided to reimpose Beiruts former glory, oh man they have succeded. Once again Beirut has become the banking district and Paris of middle east. Enjoy!

Magnificent, Abidjan tower below, already under construction

Ivory coast(Abidjan before the war)

Sudan (khartoum) on its making, they have already started constructing.

I only see four buildings standing upright in a deseart hole, is this something to be proud of, as if its some kind of supernatural achievemnet whay do i see alot of somalis in dffirent forums constantly celebrate when a tiny bui´lding in somalia has been raised,lol seriously whats up with this mentality, do we have such low expactations on eachother?Wallahi its pathetic, Imo we from Puntland should not celebrated such modest constructions, atleast not untill cities in our part of somalia looks something similar like these african cities

Regardless of what this little girl from Somalia who made her self a name in the Netherlands does in her life, the facts still remains. Somalia is the lowest of all lowest countries, hate this creature as much you want but for sure its not her fault of this unfortunate position of most Somalis around the world. You people need to start focus on real time issues concerning our nation and what your grand children will inherent after your death, no need to talk about Ayaan as a devil while your country lies in shambles. In 2006 we have people calling themselves "Islamic court" fighting people calling themselves "warlords against terrorism". Fuc#ing disgusting and embarassing!

Ayaan hirsi or these savages who destroyed our country in the name of Qabil and warlodism and now also Islam! Yeah keep pointing your attention on the right direction :rolleyes: Typical!

The women who can't feed her babies is lazy? the African man who is dying form AIDS is lazy? All who suffer unimaginably ARE LAZY? i don't think so. the situation is not about laziness but ineptness to govern. It's not about black character of failure its about the history of SLAVERY, COLONIZATION, and continued SUBJUGATION that the blacks can not overcome. If anything the Black race should be credited for surviving all these injustices. But the one important trait we lack is resiliance an ability to bounce back up again to the times of greatness of Mali, Ghana, Songhai! You sound like a west african negro, what has songhai, mali and Ghana's "time of greatness" anything to do with you as a somali. I'm disgusted by how some somalis these days sound more and more like these afrocentric lunatics talking about past glories and blaiming everything bad on the whities. Africa stinks because of the negro, period. God was in a bad mood they day he created the Negro no doubt about that. Slavery and other explotation( that still continues) is not the whiteys fault, its the negroes fault for not being able to protect his people and himself, and has still not learned to do so. blacks are like little children, no sense of responsibility, discipline or foresight thinking at all, whenever a black gets money the first thing he does is to buy unnecessery shit, the words saving and investment does not exist in the negro mentality. lets invite the white man back to Africa, the time they controlled were the only time this god forsaken continent had any kind of greatness or glory, atleast people didnt starve under their rule. what a shame that such a beutiful continet is inhabited by the most sorry people of all human races. I've always wonderd how Africa would be like if it was inhabited by non-blacks, im quite sure everyones dream would be to move to this paradise. But today when people think about Africa, they actually imagine how hell looks like. No need to talk shit anymore we need to be honest to each other, we need to put the cards on the table and face the facts.

hahaha he brought it to himself. Such morrons we have out there http://www.stormfront.org/forum/showthread.php?t=284873

Here is an excerpt from the book of an officer who was in the middle of the turmoil and also wrote this during the time of British and Italian occupation, he had been in other African regions but was placed just after WWII in Somalia by the British military when they were taking over the defeated fascist/Italians territory. And this is what he wrote during his stay. As all the dark eyes, hundreds of them, turned to watch Ali and his white companion walk through the sitting crowd to a table, I knew what it must be like to have tried this as a black man in a white man hotel. Yet every eye I met was friendly. I never met anti-white feeling of any kind in my swift in Mogadishu, but was not expecting to anyway with Somalis, who had never smarted under any inferiority feeling. A Somali always felt himself to be twice as good as any white man, or any other kind of man at all, and still does, even when he is wrong(....) there is nothing so depressing as hearing some unhappy ***** of an ex-suburban memsahib fretting at a hotel table because there is an African sitting at the next one, and watching the African listening to it in silence as he eats. But for the Somalis their natural intelligence is second to none and when the education factories start among them they should surprise Africa and themselves. An Italian priest I knew, who had spent over thirty years among the Somalis, he made only two converts, and it amazed me that he got even those two. I never saw a Somali who showed any fear of death, which, impressive though it sounds, carries within it the chill of pitilessness and ferocity as well. If you have no fear of death you have non for anybody else’s death either, but that fearlessness has always been essential to the Somalis who have had to try and survive hunger, diseases and thirst while always prepared to go to war and fight their enemies, be it fellow Somalis in blood feud or the Ethiopians who would like to rule them, or the white man who got in the way for a while. Of all the races of Africa there cannot be one better to live among than the most difficult, the proudest, the bravest, the vainest, the most merciless, the friendliest; the Somalis. Gerald Hanley Warriors Life and death among the Somalis Anyone read this book and what's your opinion on Hanleys text on our brave Somalis?
