  1. I love the end when the tall skinny ladies pokes the guy in the face! lol and in the end the guys run away! loool Classic.
  2. Loool. Your Somali is good, you sound like Isslaanyaar of aadi laa joogta near Burco. By the way if you are Burco, then this is doomed love. Paragon is not allowed with 40mile radius to Burco girls. There is a standing court order against him. Otherwise as I said; I saw him sitting by the bus stop, picking at a rose, saying she loves me, she loves me not.
  3. Don't worry I will send you his number! Pluz he told he, he would die without you, so hold on a bit longer!
  4. Fantastic; here The ladies kick ***!!
  5. Beyond perverted. Have you not figured out how to PM him yet. Paragon, see weye, help a sister out.
  6. ^^^I read JB's one... does not sound like the JB we know. Paragon yours is boring can you write about something exciting?
  7. Thierry: NOpe that is not my argument, don’t assume. Let me tell you. My reasons for boycotting M&S is not because it contributes to the economic development of Israel. No, because then I would have to boycott others such as Tesco, Sainsbury yad yad ya and so many more who contribute to the economy by trading with Israeli farmers and companies. In fact it will be impossible to get rid of everything that has passed thorough an Israeli company. Computer chips, software’s the list is endless. My problem with M& S is because of two reasons; 1) M&S' imports illegally produced goods from occupied Palestine often by the hands of exploited Palestinian labourers. This is illegal according to international law and in violation of EU trade agreements. (this was reported in the Guardian in 2001) 2) In the same year in the annual conference; they started to sponsor (15%) the Israeli defence and security budget. That is not trade Thierry. I’m not going to bother about the rest of your argument, because all is says to me is I’m worried for myself and my survival, so I will keep quite while they get abused. Don’t worry our turn will come for endorsing and supporting the oppressions. Then we will wonder why no one is speaking up on our behalf. Looking after number one and making excuses eh. Lazy I don't expect you to understand the most basic things, this would be expecting too much. I never claimed to be a good Muslim. Beenta iska daa and learn how to read. Most of the boycot camapign are none-Muslims. Last thing I need from you is advise. Keep it, you need it. :cool: I've wasted enough time on this thread. Haa diin maacaanatood McDs ppl. **Sorry poster for the Hijack. I'm out.
  8. Boycotting McDonald or any product is not going to solve the problem after all our Messenger traded with the Jews in Medina and they were the same people that broke the treaty to secure Medina from any outside assault. DO you really want we to tell you how silly and flawed this argument is??? Do you want to explain to me how that is even a logical argument? Remember the boycot is not because they are Jewish. Also someone posed a similar question to Br Khalid Yasin in one of the lectures I watched and he stated that such acts might backfire as Muslim products might be boycotted. What Muslim products are sold in Isreal? I would like to know, so Please do tell?
  9. Ngonge, what is pointless is arguing with you instead of doing something worthwhile with my time. While I don't doubt you have tons of knowledge about shares and subsidiaries even with particular references to M&S and McDs, I just told you, and I'm tell you again; NO sir, even in a globalised interlinked market, I don't and I will not. Do you know why?? BEcause I make it my business not to and while most people can and may get confused by the package I don't. OK. Now Mr. Know it ALL/ FULLY. I don't really care what you know, but what you don't is that people perception and taste changes all the time. M&S knows that too, hence their image clear up and marketing campaigns. You say it is pointless to go against this, because it is a waste of energy and you are bound to fail. I say I can’t fail till I try, and if I do, it is not a problem, I will try something else. I am highlighting your ignorance of the subject you are fighting for. You highlighted nothing but your fear of failure. I already told you I was aware they are ot a corner shop. I understand their scope and grip, yet I still choice to go ahead because I know M&S supports Israel with approximately $233 million in trade every year as well as their contribution to the IDS. My aim is to a but a dent in it. P.s. Do you know M&S started an ethical marketing drive to counter the negative impact of the boycot camapign? p.s.s.

  11. ^^^What has that got to with anything and how do you know what her/his intentions are. Forget that even if that was his intentions they are wrong and you are wrong too. There is nothing funny or entertaining about this level of stuip*idity. Neither one of you are my buddies. :rolleyes:
  12. NGonge, it is not all or nothing. The aim is not necessarily to get them bankrupt. The aim is to stop them contributing financial assistant. They will not lose their Muslims customers because most people don't equate underwear and food to politics. So that is your campaign then is it not? once people equate the two and they understand the connection, your job is done, they can either continue buying or they may spend their money elsewhere. But if people fail to make the connection and you don’t tell them, how can you blame them for buying food and underwear? Lastly Ngonge. Don't insult my intelligent, I do not buy M&S subsidiaries or companies they own shares in or with. And I know exactly what I am doing, just because you don't understand or it makes no sense to you, it does not mean it is pointless. :cool: P.s. Everything seems impossible at first!
  13. Xiin, you implied Ibitisam buu daandaan isoga digya haadaa, so don't judge him on this. I'm not impressed :rolleyes:
  14. The blogging has been used to spread lies, lies and more lies. So people blog to counter those lies...well at least I do.
  15. Johnny B. No I don't blame the passive Muslims fully, but along with few other factors, I blame passive top dogs (i.e the Muslim insitutions & leaders, parents) who have largely negelected the Muslim youth and allowed the gap, which has allowed extremist to take advantage of young ignorant youths. I blame all the failure of Muslims at the feet of Muslim institutions and leaders. AND I blame the Masses for not fighting for better leaders and better institutions which are capable of providing directions and defending them if need be. So in my view at some stage, it is everyone’s fault.

  17. Looool. This is funny Hahaha
  18. Ngonge, don't worry about feeling sorry for me wallalo. And stop patronizing me! So your reasoning is that M&S are too big, well placed in the world market to make a dent n their profit. My reasoning is that every Muslim has a conscious, and if you remind them often, and bug them enough, they will follow you. I know that ethical consumerism is on the rise within the non Muslim population, my campaign is aligned with that. In time inshallah it will make a difference. If it does not, then at least I did not contribute. Your objection is based on you being too lazy and too aware of corporate power of M&S. Hence you decided it is impossible before you even tried to do anything. The typical mind of a defeatist. You said it was not because the task is too difficult that makes you sit on the fence, but when I directly asked you about the contribution of Muslims and whether that has a direct result or not, you side stepped the issue. The difference is, I think Muslim support and contribution to M&S can make a difference, you don’t (although you realize this logically flawed as I explained in my last post (i.e. M&S will shrink again)) Edit: No Ngonge. The reason people go blowing up buildings is because passive Muslims give them no alterative ways to channel their angry. They tell them everything is pointless and worthless and they only thing they can do is make dua and stand by and watch. Passive Muslims stand around screaming it is Xaram to get involved in politics, or Xaram and pointless to do campaigns or engage with non Muslims. We should just keep our head down and take shid from the society they say. Some say we should blend in, others say lets create a society within the western society. Let them mock us in this world and Allah will avenge for us in the hereafter. They will murder, kill and torture Muslims because what do you expect they are Kufars. We will sit here and cry and make dua, because there is no point doing nothing else, what else is there to do brother? Oh I know lets have a debate about it, yes we'll debate about anything and everything over some tea, but lets do jackshid. THAT is what ruined Islam, that is why people blow themselves up. Because the young generation lacks the basic Islamic education, so when people come to them and say Oh I do have something you can do as well as making dua, they do it without a second thought convinced that it is better than doing nothing. Passive Muslims gave extreme Muslims a void to fill, Passive Muslims make active Muslims job harder, because they work against us and under mind us. P.s.s. Speaking about Campaigns, I'm doing one against Israeli dates sold in all Muslim shops during Ramadan. I’ll be in your area, I better not see you buy any!
  19. Loool MS DD, ninki baa laag ceey. You guys are evil and harsh! lol. Shooting a brother down. Men are each others worse enemy. I can understand me and Malika, but you guys :eek:
  20. Unknown1, don't listen to A&T. I don't know wuux sheegayo. In Syria, they call men Ibtisam and ladies Ibtisaam.
  21. You just contradicted yourself dear NGonge. My point was that Muslims both here and in the Muslim world contribute substantial to M&S. I did not ask what its original base was. Yes, M&S has a strong middle class customer base, but in recent years they branched out. The new customers are largely made up of Muslims and foreigners in general. This has allowed M &S to reach levels it has not reached before in terms of profit, number of branches. Which is fine to a certain extent. BUT my problem is not with the white Middle class English customers. My problem lies with the Muslims who have contributed to this expansion and continuing to sustain the growth of M&S. If M&S still relied on its grassroots customer (i.e. the British Middle Class) It will not have enough profit to be throwing away percentages to the Israeli defence budget, like they are doing now. They will go back to their strong hold areas. How much would you estimate the Branch in Dubia contributes? or the one in Edgeware Road for example. If they spent their money else where will it not have an impact? is that a realistic goal? P.s. Passive Muslims is the reason Muslims are humiliated across the world. It is the reason why anyone can do and say what they like about Muslims without blinking. It is the reason the essence of our faith is disappearing. Passive Muslims are the enemy within.
  22. I thought he had a daughter? or he got married? Either way congrats to the brother.
  23. ^^^She already told us that lady! Keep up. LOZ lol, I don't think so. Lool Ngonge, it is impossible not to feel guilty. But why would you put yourself in that place. Erm I know people who went out people for months coz they felt gulity Ms I agree with LOZ. Kick him silly. Those are personal things you should not get from a stranger.
  24. Ms DD :eek: :eek: They say everyone has a price. I'm still looking for mine. I don't think it is true though.
