Originally posted by Caaqil: Assalamu calaykum, The notion that somalis are nomads is a social construction that was fuelled by successive governments in somalia and the pseudo intellectuals westerners who belived them. Sxb, I guess you could argue that the 'Nomad' syndrome is programmed into the framework of Somali Social thought. Many things have become part and percel of Somali social thought. When i say Somali social thought, i mean the thought of those politically empowered nomadic 'Bilis' class (its an ugly division). The reason why Nomadism is prefered most, it seems, is because of its association with the ''Bilis' class and not the 'Boon' class. This is a mindset that needs altering and re-engineering. Disturbingly, the association of farming/fishing and craftmanship to the 'Boon' class and not to the 'Bilis'class is conceptual hurdle that makes difficult the attempts of transition - from Nomadism to Agriculturalism. In the last few weeks, I have been doing abit of reading regarding Somali artisan clans and the causal factor for their seclusion from power politics and poetic activities. I have found out that the reason for this seclusion has been facilitated by a so-called 'Nomadic Moral codes'.As legend has it, Somali Nomads didn't become craftmen or farmers due to the belief that the Artisan clans are immoral in their economic dealings, and to avoid such immorality, some sort of moral code has to be maintained. The mo money the mo problems-like philosophy. The farmer or the artisan's easy access to valued materials and possessions (capitalism of a sort), they claim, increases the greed and negative aspects of the individual and undermines his/her sense of community or attatchment to others, thus weaking the clan in general. After pondering their 'Nomadic' reasoning deeply, I realised that the formation of clan allegiances was nothing but the 'Dependency Theory' of Latin America's academics.

I have never been Arab nor other , I care not the hither and tether I ride high and right on my horse, Be it on a stray or straight path, Of lineage trailing to Somali Birth. When some are ashamed to describe themselves, they wimper before others in their bid to appease them. If I say I am Somali, and 'others from Africa' dub me racist, then I am glad to be racist. I am Somali, nothing changes that. Just 'cause I happen to share a colour and a continent with some people doesn't add or substract anything from my Somaliness.

I have seen a woman called Jordan but this time I am glad its a man who is called Somalia. Worse things could happen, we don't want that with for our country's name, do we?

And is the man one mostly respected by his Afro-Carribean community? Hehe, if an individual such as 'him' ranks high in the Afro-Carribean community, then we (Somalis and other ethinicities) shouldn't waste time on the matter in hand. As the Somali proverb once pointed: 'ama maqnaaw ama muuqnaaw!', 'Either be absent, or let your presence felt'. So we shall show our presence unlike 'some' communities. PS: Afterall, who needs their sympathy?

NGONGE, I think they are relatively a new group and time needs to be granted to them before we can learn their methodologies. Maasha-Allaah, the brothers do endeavour to inform many university and college students of western residence. It will be a sin to me to judge them now, however, you can expect of them to provide explanation of the ways in which they intend to achieve their goals. PS: Hopefully, brother Truth-seeker will enlighten us with more about the strategies and methodologies of Hizb-at-Taxriir.

'Hadaan lakala roonaan roob ma da'o'.

NGONGE, let me do alittle calculation sxb. If, 1.6 billion = 0, then, 1.6 + 1 = 0 +1 So, though 1 is added, still the substance is not altered. Now, if out of 1.6 billion, 100 with substance is created, the caculation will be; 100,000 + 1 = 100,001 substantive muslims. If converting more muslims is your argument, then, it doesn't change much. First work with what you have, then increase the good you have generated by converting more. Maybe, and I say maybe, the hizb at taxriir have a good arguement this time.
