We are Africans and we have been in Arab league ...
Since we have become a state ,we have been supporting Arab cause....
To ask you question ,is the Arab league a racial organizations...or it is a
political organization....?
Does the Arab league needs more members ..?
If Somalia keeps to be an Arab league member ,is it mutual interest or not..?

Finally I will remind you ..Somalis are very proud peaple and blieve very
superior ...and I hope you will not be decieved by their colour and language..

Abdi,

You have plenty of time to answer this simple question without insulting anyone
let alone compromise the creed of ummah?.

Despite, I'm against this Arab club for ideoligical reasons, I'm sure, Somalia
as a country and populations did benefited from the membership of Arab league.

Before I go off air let I add this, Somalia never benefited from it's
membership of OAU. That's why many Somalis- except few who failed to read our
history with sincerity- as of today refuse to characterise themselfves as full
member of African clubs. This statement hold very much water in the historic
sense if not political discourse of Somalia contemperary display it loud and
clear.

It does not. The Africans usually hold on to their old masters. That is
why Africa can never be fully independent.

I remember reading a National Geograhpic magazine which had an article about
Morocco wanting to join the EU. I laughed.

When African countries are in the Commonwealth of Nations, they are
holding on to their old masters, but when the US is in NATO, they are in a
strong alliance. Get real, dude. You're not making a point here.

It's just a bunch of Nations that have something in common, and come
together to help one another and to make some sort of Unity. Anytime such
countries come together, business is carried out more easily, and people
generally move among those countries easily. Nigeria has carried out MANY
decisions (sometimes terribly wrong) independently of the Commonwealth of
Nations, so try again.

Who was talking about the independence date
of Nigeria? We are talking about those African
countries that joined and are still in the Commonwealth.

Hey, wonder-lady, Nigeria was not falsely listed
and everyone of those countries in the list are now
in the Commonwealth?

Nigeria was one of the first African countries
which joined in the commonwealth, but she was
later banned from it....but was recently reinstated
to the Commonwealth after her election.

What is the difference between Nigerians and other
African countries that are in Commonwealth?
Are they better than the other African countries in
the Commonwealth?

When the old lady comes to one of these african countries,
the africans would bow their heads down before hand shaking
her...that is the rule and that is not false.
Besides, the "Commonwealth membership entails acceptance
of the Commonwealth practices, including* the practice of
acknowledging of the British monarch which the Heads of
Government in the commonwealth recognise the lady as a Queen
and take orders from her.

Then, Nigeria was not falsely listed as you claimed.

Nigerians bow their heads down to the lady and whatever
comes down from the heads fo Government in the Commonwealth.
Nigeria(as other African countries in the Commonwealth) accept
the orders of the Heads of Government in the commonwealth
which recognise the old lady of England as their Queen.

There is no difference. The Africans must bow their heads
down for the old lady in order to great her.

BROTHER, MOHAMED,
Let me tell you something, first of all we are not Arabs nor do we call
ourselves Arabs or regard as Arabs. So Brother, I think you have got the
wrong information.
secondly, we are africans and we do not like Arabs and thier language eather
and that is why we do not speak arabic.
but we only share the Islamic religion.
