Imagine wasting valuable time on researching something for the sole purpose of instigating a qabiil bash session. All this coming from Mr 'Somalinimo' himself. Give us a break mate. Originally posted by Adam-Zayla: Brother me no disrespect but i really don't get where your going. Is your topic's purpose to discuss what fueled the 'previous stagnant European countries' into becoming seaborne Empires? Is it to envisage a strong Somalia competing with the rest of the world? Is it intended to be a haven for pessimism and self doubt because of the current state of our country? please, clarify yourself and i will continue to contribute tomorrow when i wake up, cause right now, i really don't know where your going brother! Good luck in trying to get any sense out of him saxib. Many have tried but are often left 'baffed'. I'm starting to believe its an intended 'confusion policy'.

^Is your beef with Universal? Have you tried to look into their claim that the guy was arrested? Media people are arrested in SL saxib.

Weekend ayuu ka hadlaya and it's Tuesday! Where is JB today?

^Govnt can't stop the use of charcoal saxib. But they must try and ensure enough gas is available to anyone who wants it and guidance on it's safe use. If I see one I will run a mile because reer Africa safety garanmaayaan!

Good going.

I think the letter is addressed to the wrong person (the media bias part of it anyway)

It's not a grant but goes towards your child's trust account. Child can access when 18 but interest based of course. I should have bought that internet cafe when I had the chance. The tax man baan dhici lahaa by now

Wish I could 'not get up' and stroll into work at 11 then have cake and tea :rolleyes:

^It's not the actual slogan but the need for someone to assess it's claim that I found funny. Many claims by companies are assessed as to their accuracy. This will be an interesting one.

How can one carry $150k in his pocket(s)? Illaahay ha u naxaristo. Amin.

^Man Utd will be top before our game against Everton next Monday Rafa is 'disturbed' is what Fergie said Chelsea need to get rid of Scholari. ps saw this game last week

Don't care for the topic but this comment of yours is WRONG, Norf. Egypt won it SIX times and will probably win the next one too. I haven't seen them in the 5 World Cups I have seen but I have seen those they tend to beat in the final Hope they make it to SA next year. Have to admit they do have a good team.

^Why not inform him and us? How do Charter schools perform vs normal schools?

DAVID CAMERON, CONSERVATIVE LEADER "It's obviously a completely unacceptable thing to say and it's right that he has apologised. "I think it's important that in the great institutions... we root out attitudes like that. That has to go right across the institutions." Asked whether the Army should take further action against Prince Harry, Mr Cameron said: "He's made an apology and I think it's apparent he's clear about that, and that's enough." AKI NAWAZ, MUSICIAN AND POLITICAL ACTIVIST "This word has caused massive offence to our community and people, not just recently, but for years and years. "To somehow paint Prince Harry as being naive or innocent is just absolutely a horrendous analysis. He's been brought up in a privileged background, had the best education, travelled the world. "It's absolutely disgusting and I think he should be dismissed from the MoD. We don't accept these things, we've had to live with this for 40 years. "This is not taking a politically position, this is having some kind of moral decency towards people from different communities. I mean all I can recall is through my youth being at concerts and skinheads at the back sieg heiling, calling me the 'P' word. "The Ministry of Defence says it aims to tackle racism, well here's your best opportunity to show us what you actually want to do about racism." RICHARD FITZWILLIAMS, ROYAL WATCHER "I would say to those who would see the language that he used and are naturally much offended, look at the context in which it was made and remember that it was three years ago. "There's no question that he's undergone a journey so far as his own character was concerned. He was a real wild child, then overnight he became a hero - as the press would have it - for being in Afghanistan for 10 weeks. "A line has got to be drawn under this and we've got to move on. Of course it will embarrass a lot of people and there is no question that he deeply regrets it. "On the other hand there's the swastika incident, people remember that, that's the problem with these incidents, they stick in people's minds. "Though I think the News of the World are blowing this up somewhat out of context, because if you look at the actual footage, that is the test of it. Was he intending to be offensive and insulting? I don't think so." NICK CLEGG, LIBERAL DEMOCRAT LEADER Mr Clegg told Sky News: "He shouldn't have used those words, it will have caused considerable offence and has obviously caused him a considerable amount of embarrassment. "He has apologised, quite rightly, and I think we should now move on." Asked if he would fire a member of his senior team for using such comments he said: "I would almost certainly have to yes. "But it is not a question of whether Prince Harry can be fired, he has apologised, he has apologised profusely. I think we now have got to draw line under it, but it has obviously caused considerable offence." INGRID SEWARD, MAJESTY MAGAZINE "I think it was a private video, he was talking about a friend of his, they were having fun and they were calling each other nicknames and I think it's been taken out of context. "Yes, it would be very offensive if Harry went around calling people Pakis in a racist way, but this was not meant, you know, it was meant more of a nickname. "I mean, Harry's mates call him Ginge or Ginger - that could be equally offensive to people with red hair." MOHAMMED SHAFIQUE, RAMADHAN FOUNDATION "Anybody who uses derogatory terms such as the 'P' word and other words are obviously from a different age. "He is trying to portray this image of being caring like his mother, who was a great woman, or his father who's a person who's widely respected across the world. He's a thug." PATRICK MERCER, FORMER TORY SPOKESMAN Mr Mercer was forced to resign as a Conservative spokesman for suggesting that being called a "black *******" was part and parcel of Army life for ethnic minority soldiers. He says this incident is very unfortunate. "Whatever went on inside the platoon three years ago - perhaps it was friendly banter, I have no doubt at all that the Prince was on very good terms with the officer from the Pakistan army who was in the same platoon with him. "[but] the fact remains that he is a prince of the blood royal and he must know that everything he did and does is under intense scrutiny at all times. "All I can say is that in the intervening two or three years... he's done the country, the army and the Royal Family an immense amount of good and I very much regret any damage that these careless, thoughtless, pointless, silly comments will have caused him." KHALID MAHMOOD, LABOUR MP, BIRMINGHAM "This might have been said in a light-hearted manner but ultimately it's offensive to a lot of people. "He needs to understand that this is not acceptable, especially in light of the office that he is going to hold in the Army and as a member of the Royal Family." http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7822723.stm
