Jerusalem Post: Why No Viva Somalia

[GENERAL_SNM]

Palestine is more developed than 99% of Africa. This is why I spit on those that whine and bitch about Plyshitin

Thats a bit harsh mate. Considering they've lost 80% of Palestine proper and most of them are in refugee camps outside palestine and the reminders are harassed and abused by the occupying Israeli forces. What could they have ever done to you for you to hate them. Are you hating them for being unlucky victims of jewish colonization?

You misunderstood my point. I sympathize and call for the liberation of the Palestinian people. However, I happen to have problem with people who trivialize the tragedy in Somalia while fixating about the Palestinian rights. Charity starts at home.

And let's not use occupation as an argument. Majority of the Somali lands are occupied by Ethiopia and Kenya and gross human rights violations are taking place in those territories. I sympathize with the Palestinian people because I believe that an injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere.

Listen bro, the difference between the situation in Somalia and the one in Palestine in my view is that one is self inflicted and if Somali's wake up tomorrow and decide they want to better themselves they can, but they choose not to. However the one in Palestine is totally hopeless they wont be in any position to change their situation because they have been forced of their land by a nuclear power. Ethiopia and Kenya are not sh!t 2 third world countries both on the verge of imploding are occupying our land is not something to scream help about, its fockin shameful. We could in all honesty bring both to their knees if all Somalis united can you say the same about the Israel.

Ps, the situation in Xammer and Jerusalem is different because as you are aware the third holiest sight is not located in Xammer but Jerusalem. So it is more important.

It basically means law any form of law It comes form the Arabic language sharciya.

General-SNM.

You miss my point and contradict yourself.

They most of the time associate it with sharia law. The Islamic law.

So, we didn't have a word for "law" before Islam?

Yet, while your heroic despot used the crops of the Bay and Bakool people to feed his armies to retake the capital, it was the Mahdi Caydiid who spent more months calling for food aid to be sent to Somalia in the wake of the Dictator's created famine.

Thanks for proofing my point. The man you call the "Mahdi" became the number one targeted man by the country whose citizenship you now claim (USA) because of starving Somalis and using U.N donated food as a political tool (ironically enough the same thing the article you posted deals with--starving Somalis and food aid). But while this article topics about lack of attention for Somalia, you were on the side of the people committing starvation when Somalia was getting help.

People got fed up and left because of you and today you lament them not helping? Amazing.

But then again you are the guy who calls the day 18 American servicemen died trying to help stabilize Somalia as a "victory for the Somali people"? The same day we now understand to have been Al Qaeda's first venture into Somalia.

You should be stripped of your citizenship and sent back to live the life many innocent Somalis have been condemned to live in by the warlords you supported.

There is a Somali world for law; Xeer. Xeer means customary law.

Ah, thanks

[The_Emperior5]

Well there is a word we have a xeer which is the same as sharciga . Sharcigu wa Arabic.
But we had sharci before islam its just we used to call it a different word.

Voltage, why don't these hutus appreciate what Siyaad Barre produced in the first place isn;t he the one who made Somalia economy one of the best in Africa, no one was starving then. Now he is blaming the former government of starving the Somali People when ironically they are the ones who put themselves in this position.

Granpa it is not even about Siad Barre or the government. Even if the government was bad and it should have been overthrown, what legitimizes what the warlords Abdiwahab supported did?

I mean the old government is just a crutch for these people!

Remove the government and there is no excuse. If the warlord Abdiwahab supported had good reasons, why did he not accept Ali Mahdi as president when he was declared by the USC? If the aim was to bring down an unlawful government (as is alleged) and not personal ambitions to ride to power using clan and destroy the nation if he couldn't, why did that warlord demolish the city of Mogadishu when his partner in rebellion (Ali Mahdi) succeeded to the presidency before him?

There is no justification sxb. The government is an excuse. You remove that government from the picture as happened in 1991, and the puzzles line up into place.
