Riz Khan - The vanishing Somalis - 18 March 09 - Part 2

Last summer, more than a dozen young Somali-American men disappeared from the US only to turn up as fighters in Somalia. Why are young Somali-Americans getting radicalised and taking up arms? Is the chaos in Somalia posing a world wide security threat?

okay why is the 1st speaker speaking like he is not a somali.. stop referring to us as They rather than We..

[Hmraja]

The Islamic republic of Somalia will prevail, once the UIC gains control and establish stability and prosperity thru the ruling of Islam.

[kulankk]

People listen, Somalia is DONE. we may as well give it a new name. after 20 years, I don't really think anything else can be done UNLESS UNLESS all of us somalis are removed from the country. is that possible? lol

[Somalilander20]

I bet if I asked you to spell trigger you wouldn't be able to idiot ! That's why Somali's are coming to your country and taking over all the good jobs and starting business all over the United Kingdom & many western countries, while your ignorant retarded ass is making minimum wage at a Gas Station or a retail store.  And were making 200 thousand plus a year. Don't even talk about IQ...

[Somalilander20]

And all the sudden when Islamic leaders took power in early 2007 and kicked out the money hungry politics supported by the U.S.A for many years. Now the U.S.A and many other western countries are accusing Somalia us a terrorist STATE! Umm interesting Well how come Somalia was not an TERRORIST STATE 18 years ago???? When you guys were supporting the money hungry politics with weapons???? Huh you tell me!

[Somalilander20]

And you also have to understand for many years the corrupt leaders of Somalia were financed by the U.S.A and many other western countries. They were financed with weapons to kill each other by the U.S.A because the U.S is afraid that Somalia is going to go back as it was years ago, the most powerful country in Africa on top of all were are all Muslim & Love our faith.

[Somalilander20]

Further more YES I do agree with you on one thing what is taking place in Somalia has nothing to do with Islam point blank period! ignorant corrupt leaders or should I say money hungry politics are trying to run the country with their own interest not the people's interest. That's why Somalia has been a failed STATE for more than 18 years. Because corrupt leaders are fighting for power and the people are against it. UNDERSTAND...????

[Somalilander20]

Mad dawg Listen man... Somali's are not Arabs we are African 100% But our religion is Islam were all Muslims and love our faith. Yes we do put Islam over Africa, over clan-ship & over anything because we worship GOD Almighty and believe that there is no GOD accept GOD. Islam has been around since the world was created you should do more research about Islam before you post ignorant comments.

[zaphania]

Man U don't Know what Islam Means, First ask urself what islam means, then i better tell u better understand That Human beings are not the islam, But The followers of Islam, If u truly believe in Islam, U can't Kill a single Human being and if u do as a muslim is as if u have killed The all Humanity, U see that how horrible account it is, Man real Muslim never Kills, But A muslim has right to defend Himself incase is attacked, my questions is who are promoting war in this world today?
