Marry us or die

[Leila25]

I have heard stories of forced marriages by Al Shabab from relatives in Xamar. A father cant refuse his daughter to a "good muslim" man from Alshabab or else he is accused of spreading Zina and fitnah. The more marriages the better for the society whether you are willing or not does not matter.

that advo thread, about Kim K and Reggie Bush has more substance than this nonsense

lol. When you interview " 60 Somali refugee communities in Kenya and Yemen", then these are the type of stories folks will make up in order to pass as legitimate refugees. I don't really blame them. Just think about our elders assylum stories and how they came to west. I am actually surprised there are no stories of homosexual minorities being persecuted. Now, That's an assylum banker right there.

Because there are no legitimate Somali refugees fleeing al-Shabab persecution? They cant all be fleeing AMISOM (retaliatory/defensive) shelling surely?

There are, of course. But, as the paddingtonbear pointed out, mostly people can tell what is nonsense and what is not. Alshabab whipping women for not attenting jamaca, alshabab removing peoples teeth, alshabab checking bras, and alshabab making women only walk with female donkeys? Come on, don't be a desperado and cling to every single story some zionist blogger makes up.

Why do men find this particular story so difficult to believe?

It happens...its been a fact for a while, its just getting printed now...its not a refugee sob story, and its not even difficult to believe... you would think the story said they were making pornos with aliens

They divorce couples if the man cant afford to keep his wife in a big hijaab (most poor Somali women just wear a gambasaar), and then marry her to one of their muriyaan. They reward their fighters with women and young girls, willing or not

You have to remember a lot of their fighters are young men, without any knowledge of the deen. I remember seeing an interview with an Islamic Courts fighter, he said he was raping women a few weeks before, now he was enforcing Shariah law

[Paddington Bear]

It does, but I dont need to get into that.

Humbug! You are no different than the Shabab kids who post on here about their heroism and how the Islamic flag is going to fly high in the skies of Somalia. Both are as pointless and deluded as each other. Still, that is your choice and I am not responsible for your education. But don’t mind me when I mock your pathetic propaganda pieces.

Deluded....... you defend the indefensible because they 'mean well', haye I'm delusional so ma'ahan

the question is not that it happens or it can happen, i just have a problem with the source

Again, I don't doubt Somalis, people who have lived in anarchy for twenty years, let alone Alshabab, are capable of attrocious actions. However, some things are just propaganda and not worth taking seriously.For instance, apparently Alshabab got some dentist to start removing peoples teeth. Utter bullocks. But I bet you would still rush here to post it.

Anyway, washington post wal bila macni, Somalia o dhan islamka qabsan dona, amisom wa la qaban dona, sheikh easyjet wa la qaban dona, puntland ditto, somaliland ditto, feministland ditto. Walaw karihal kafirun, walaw karihul qubriyeen, walaw karihal cilmaniyin, walaw karihil qabiliyeen. And there is nothing somalis in the diaspora can do but wail and post cheap-smelly propaganda from jeffrey gettleman. allahu akbar. walilahil xamd.

Run, Mad May, Run. We shall meet in your next madeup story.

The marriage thing can easily happen. We are talking about Somalia after all. But when the same source tells you that she has been forced to pray in the mosque on Friday you start to know this article is nothing but nonsense.

Al Shabab’s opponents wants to claim the moral high ground yet still try to sell us such cheap and very transparent propaganda. What are we, cadaan?

Somalilander and Djibouti guy;
Wax ku quseeyo xagaan kuma taal

lol it doesn't concern them but it does concern the writers of this article? I don't understand the logic of these kids

[abdisamad3]

Allawi had plenty of reasons to flee. Al-Shabab fighters, she said, once whipped her for not attending midday prayers at the mosque. Last month, she was forced to prove that the man she was walking with was her husband.

One minute Al Shabab is compared to the Taliban and is against women working, leaving home or mixing with men. The next, they are evil men that beat up women who miss prayers at the mosque.

God! Will feeble propaganda ever end?

atleast if they are going to tell us lies why dont they tell as a dressed one instead of throwing a naked women into our eyes..
