    Reer Puntland, do not show your wounded fingers for everything would knock up against it...wa taaalo .They say there is a dignity in suffering, nobility in pain, but a I guess a failure in Brussels is a salted wound that burns and burns.. All these threads are not coincidence, right ? Haha

    Are you referring to me? I really thought he would mention Somaliland considering Kerry did it.

     

    It is unfortunate, but, this president is very divisive.

    "The true Somali is an extremely lazy person, for his dignity does not permit him to do manual work; he generally employs himself in watching his flocks, or he will lie for hours under a shady tree, his praying-mat and water-bottle beside him, while he drones, to a sort of chant, songs about his former fights and about the stock he has looted. The manual work, meanwhile, is left to the women and the dependants. The Somali is a Mussulman of the Shujai sect and is very religious in his own fashion. In appearance the Somali is an Arab, and sometimes a hand-some Arab. Treat him with confidence and consideration, he is cheerful, intelligent, willing to learn, and true to his code of honesty. Treat him harshly or unjustly, he becomes sulky, obstinate, mutinous, and dangerous. He is an excellent scout, a wonderful marcher, and very proud if confidence is shown in him. It would be fatal to the peace of the country if the Somali should be treated with that contempt which is often shown to the black races by Europeans."
