Che -Guevara Posted September 9, 2009 An excuse to exploit the resources of the poor masses, and recipe for ethnic strive-there are also prerequisites to meet before even one should entertain idea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paragon Posted September 9, 2009 Well, we've been waiting for the EAC to kick off from many years now. And boy, if it kicks off successfully, will this idea be very interesting to see how it ravels. It would a genuine test for East/ern Africans. If they do it without hesitation, then perhaps we Somalis would also drop the guns in amazement, or rather admiration, and apply to join the federation? It sure is a very sound idea BUT there its going to be a tricky to manour it. There are many issues that would need to be discussed. A hurried unity is not advised.

Che -Guevara Posted September 9, 2009 A hurried unity is not advised. Agreed! N we are not in position to shape any aspect of this dream not mention we have lot unresolved issue with neighboring states. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taleexi Posted September 9, 2009 Agreed too!, we've got lots of preliminary exercises to do before even entertaining ourselves the idea of the east African confederation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paragon Posted September 9, 2009 Yup. But my question is will we Somalis ever break out of bacda nagu xiran? We will grow economic sense as opposed to the bravado of empty nationality sense? This could mean big money for Somalis you know? Big bucks, you hear? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chimera Posted September 10, 2009 ^We have bad leadership at the moment but Somalis must never lose the sense of a national identity they currently have. It's largely responsible for Somali success in other countries including those in EAF like Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda Somali Enterprise in Uganda Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted September 10, 2009 I am sure gabar yar oo da'daada jirto ayee leedahay ee yaa lagaaga hormarin, Mr Dutch. And in the meantime, act like a combination of Ruud Gullit (Guuleed) and Rijkaard coolnesses. Speaking of them, I was watching this the other day. What a classic, tension-filled game it was. My man Voller, my kinda of guy, being red-carded, so was Rijkaard. Ar kooxda Jarmalka maxaa ka dambeeye. Voller iyo Matiyoos (as Soomaalis used to spell his name that). Adi ma xasuusan kartid ciyaartaas, that World Cup game being played in 1990, probably dhaybar kuu xirnaa. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chimera Posted September 10, 2009 are you sure she has a daughter? I still have a younger brother whose single. In 1990 i was 4 and out of my diaper phase Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
