I was at Heathrow the other day and I saw this somali family who needed some help with intepreting; the family was from Norway and consisted of a bearded father who looked pious, a hijabified mother , three daughters of between 7-10 all wearing hijab and a son.

The officer said, he needed to take fingerprints and they refused. I asked why they were refusing and they told me that they had applied for asylum in the UK.

Please note cheating is a human characteristic and not confined to somalis. What is unfortunate is that we have so called islamic features.

In Scandnavia, a friend of mine who worked at the social security office said that when a hijabified somali women came for an appointment every employee at the office chants "HERE COMES THE LIAR"

That is the sad part. Cheating is not a Somali thing, Ive seen Nigerians and Zimbabweans cheat and scam the system dry, but they are indistinguishable from the ordinary black person on the street, so no one will know they are from Nigeria or Zimbabwe. Somalis stand out like a sore thumb because A[ We are Muslims and B} We look different from other Africans.

Such a sad state of affairs.

It is not only we are diffrent from other africans. We do the scams as an industrial scale. How many families migrating from all over europe to UK just to cheat the system and later fighting over the Haraam money and exposing each-other.

Somalis are not that genius to siphon considerable amount of money. Their apetite is filled by few dollars for the halal grocery and a section 8 voucher/council house, period.

Other nationalities rob the country blind, look at the Irish, Italians and the Jews in America..or maybe u have no clue but all u see is the poor mother trying to save some $ for the kinfolks back in Somalia who have no other means of support.

Leave Somalis alone and stop the holier than thou attitude I am sure u all have yr skeletons in yr closets

Nice touch on making it look like these corrupt families are doing it, so they can send more money to relatives back home.

I won't go further into that, what I will say is: what kind of message will it send to the children when their parents view fraud so lightly? It will severely damage the Somali communities for generations to come. Criminality will become a recognizable feature of the Somali culture, not that it already isn't.

Or are you trying to tell me it's permissible to steal from gaalo?
