This guy isnt Somali.

What makes you think that? He said he immigrated from Somalia 15 years ago in other interviews.

The jingoism is over the top, and I cringed a little bit when he said he was fighting terrorists in Iraq. But he was attacked for being a Muslim, and his patriotism and army service is good publicity and should help his case.

He may be from Somalia but he's clearly not an ethnic Somali. Just saying.

He looks baajuuni or one of those people from the swahili coast. It's not relevant, that's y I end my above post with 'just saying'.

I guess he could be, but I hear the accent of someone who speaks Somali as a first language, not a Bantu language. And I've definitely seen ethnic Somalis who look like him.

Yes ur right, there are ethnic Somalis who look like him in terms of facial features but u can tell in aanu dhiig Soomaaliyeed lahayn. It's a subtle marking of ajanibiness only discernible to a Somali.

The strong jawline is the one thing that stood out to me. Although I've seen other ethnic Somalis with that feature, it's rather rare.

I am starting to think maybe you are RACIST sxb. Not all Somalis look the same. If he said he was Somali, that should be good enuff for you and not try to dig in into his lineage. I dont think we all look the same.

And for the guy, i really do hope he sues the Qashin and get's as much LACAG as he can. The aircraft company he works for has already pulled down their website after this incident and i hope they fire him.
