Negative "elitism" that just makes you shake your head.

Post by The`Republic »

I was already turned off by Ahmed Ismail Samatar's individual personality, mannerisms, and conduct and now I see this. It just seems so fake and true publicity stunt. I can practically see his head trying to gauge what pose is most appropriate to be on a slide or presentation for him

What a truly inspiration picture

Voltage what do you have against the professor? As far as I know he is a staunch nationalist that promotes transcendence from the traditional tribalist mentality that plagues us all.

I have watched a number of his interviews and presentations. The man is the type I call "with blinkers on", oblivious to his realities.

I have met Ahmed Samater and have beent to a couple of conferences where he was a presenter. To me he comes across as a man attuned to the realities of Somalia, albeit one could argue from a disapora prespective, an independent thinker that does not kow tow to a qabil agenda.
