Not all Somalias are created equal

[NGONGE]

^^ Don't tell me that. Tell it to those making a great fuss about the article.

[Kamaavi]

Why only Somalis when neither all mankind are created equal?

 

Misleading title. I say.

One is tempted to think that Shashank Bengali is another pseudo pen name of JB.

 

He fiddled with it for 10 minutes before I realized he had no idea what he was doing. When I walked over he was staring at the keypad blankly.

 

QUOTE:"Have you ever programmed one of these before?" I asked.

 

"No," he said finally, and handed the phone back apologetically. So the BlackBerry has yet to reach Somaliland. But it will.

 

LOLLLLLLLLLLLL, how many times have you seen the scene before, lol, I mean faraxs pretending to claiming to be an expert in something they haven't got a clue about.

[NGONGE]

^^ Actually, BlackBerry has reached SL. Even JB is getting one (I'm told).

[Suldaanka]

The *YOU KNOW WHO* Club are now going to hate Mr. Shashank Bengali for writing on his experiences.

I am sure the Blackberry device can be found from anywhere, but I don't think the Blackberry service is available through the local Telcos.

Man It can't be JB ,,, he is just one liner like me.

 

But can it be NGONGE? I have the feeling.

^^ I'm flattered, saaxib. But this is not me.

Not All somalis are created equal

I never thought a skinny, monkey looking somali would hold a KKK supremasist viewpoint.

May I ask what is the aim? If its to boast, ya all dont need that,WE get it,your enclaves are at peace,erm there is Democracy[

], maxaa kale yaa all very pretty too..What I am I missing here. :rolleyes:

Don't mind them, they both miss their sugga daddy. The thought of Xamer Caddey gives them wet dreams, but since that's out of reach now, they gotta settle for "my village is better than yours" b*tching

[Peace Action]

When I've gone to Somalia, the first question I've had to grapple with, as a foreigner and therefore ransom bait, is how many armed bodyguards to hire. Not so in Somaliland.

 

This is pure lie. Not only western visitors are assigned body guards but even those who rent houses have guards assigned to them. I know this for a fact. And don't forget foreign NGO's were killed there.

The writer of this piece would even be Xaaji Xundjuf, who knows? The secessionists have developed a way to use random names, any names, English, Arabic Yemeni like mutazairo and soon you will see Japanese or Nigerian names promoting the case of the traingle...

[Mintid Farayar]

Wow!!! The amount of venom this article has generated...

 

Interesting...

 

Nothing has changed since the 1960's

[Duufaan]

did we see any similar article posted in Kismaanyo or Baydhabo these days.compare the rate of the crime Kismaanyo or Baydhabo. In eyes of these people Iran is not safe not alone south somalia.

[Sherban Shabeel]

Personally, I find it a bit disrespectful to gloat over how "Somaliland is so much better than South Somalia" when Xamar is burning...
