Somalia has some very notable scientist and they won't be hard to find. One or two billionaires out of forty five million from the richest nation is not the best thing. Oprah trashes black people with her media and Jordan builds prisons for them after they buy his footwear.

Let us ignore this entity named axum barbari its like a fungi it needs to have its energy off others to survive

Oprah, Jordan? Try self made success David Steward of St. Louis(I'll let you look him up). And America is far from the richest nation per capita or by raw numbers, no matter how you slice it. How about occupying the best strategic spot on the most resource rich continent? I WISH we had that opportunity. Mogadishu should be putting Qatar and the UAE to shame right now. Not receiving aid from them.

But, for guys like you, barwaaqo. It'd be best if you just stay out of this. Because sadly there are far too many far too many fanatical anti-jareer/adoon/madow/negro whatever terminology, ad infinitum, somalis who will go out of there way to do what they can to try and diss/harass AAs and other people of black African descent for us to not give them a dose of their own medicine. This is a rarely spoken about attitude ingrained deeply in the psyche of MOST somalis from what I can tell to some extent and is fostered to a greater extent when a group of them gets together. So, just minding our own business would mean for us letting them get away with throwing stones at us from their mm. thick glass house. Guys like you are the exception to the rule, thus why you and ES should just check out of the battle.

Seriously these characters lost the battle before it even started. LMAO!

The AA GDP is around 2.2 TRILLION repeat TRILLION. If it were a country it would be around the 15th or 16th richest. That's way more than the Somalia GDP.

Seriously if AA's really wanted to, especially our top investors we could economically SWALLOW the entire country of Somalia. Similar to how those rich white real estate owners were doing to Cuba back in the day(and are about to do now).

Hell I think we would make the country more valuable than it is now and actually take ADVANTAGE of its long coast. lol!

David Steward I haven't seen him on the billionaire list One or two billionaires in a country that has been the most wealthiest on earth up until China over took it it a few minutes back is not the best thing. America is still the richest nation by assets and no other nation is even coming close when we talk military industrial complex.

Oprah and jordan Sport and Entertainment. Where are these billionaire AA businessmen Steward obviously must be paying a lot of overhead because he isn't on the list, even if he was that's it undecided That's not anything for a people with AA numbers in what has been the most richest powerful nation in the history of the world. Economics control the social and the AA society is more raggedy than every street in mogadishu.

This isn't a battle it should be a dialogue we don't know what axum is could be another agent out to do a job. If we fall into his trap that won't say much about our intelligence. If you are not an insecure AA then you know already it's not anything Somalis can say or do that should hurt you to the point of wanting to indulge in some silly online battle with them.

I want to foster greater awareness of pan africanism throughout this discussion and more bickering with even more sides joining is just defeating the entire purpose.

David Steward's Worldwide Technology holdings, is the 3rd highest grossing privately held company it the city of St. Louis with a 5.04 billion dollar revenue in 2012. That's more than 5 times Somalia's entire GDP. Take a min let that sink in for a bit and then rethink your position that AAs, as many problems as we do have, are anywhere NEAR the level of crisis that somalis are in.

I don't know what fantasy world you live in, but the richest and most prosperous countries on the earth are the ones with where the median income wealth is the highest and the ones with the highest transparency rate for it's citizens to advance in class. The wealth of a nation is judged by it's most representative persons, the middle class and their ability to advance not by the aristocracy, fyi many, id say most in fact, of which come from old money families which have ties dating back to the slave industry and someway shape or form here in America and who's wealth continues to grow to this day. And you expect AAs to just be breaking into this mold so easily when even your average white american has a greater chance of being struck by lighting than to do it their selves? And your statement about the military industry only serves to fuel my point. How is frequent upward social ascension suppose to take place from the barrels of the working class when a fifth of these same peoples tax contributions don't go towards providing the amenities necessary for such but towards funding this nations rabid "defense"(aggression) campaigns? I mean, we're talking a one percent budget for public education and even less for small business loans. America of all of the 33 designated first world nations by the Credit Suisse Global Wealth Databook has the biggest discrepancy ratio of median wealth to mean wealth at 6.60 due to this country being so top heavy with it's wealth. So, yeah I'd say the market of become a billionaire in America is largely cornered by an extremely thick glass ceiling with the people who are already there and have been there for generations.

Now, lets talk about Somalia, because I see this is a subject you and other somalis keep trying to avoid, and how it's a nation on the most resource rich continent occupying the best strategic location on the continent with a long coast with vibrant fishing waters. So, exactly how is it that your people are having famines and literally dying of starvation over there? Not only that, but it's resources are largely untapped. There is MASSIVE opportunity there. Somalia was consider prime for investment at one time. Remember the America oli company Conoco’s had multimillions of dollars invested there, which many people speculate was the real reason for the deployment of troops to Somalia in 1992. But uhh.....you guys blew the lid of of that arrangement to say the least when blackhawk down happened and foreign visitors who invested in your Ubsom bank were kidnapped(Oh well, back to al-shabab style sharia halah banking then). Somalia has all of the natural tools set in place for your nation to be the shining star of both Africa and the Muslim world, so why is it instead the most economically barren place of both?

Yes yes yes I understand his company and what they gross that's very terrific I'm thrilled.

Fantasy world I just call like I see it should be obvious to anyone with eyes that america has stolen raped and robbed every corner of the earth and transferred all that wealth back here.

You bring up a good point somalia and many africa nations don't have things together themselves, all the resources you could imagine and yet no substantial progress. Religion has a factor into that.

The minds of the people have been colonized just as the physical state has been.

2. Why does Somalia have the CIA running free and committing various operations, further destabilizing the country?
3. Why does Somalia has one of the largest coastlines in Africa, which is a plus for fishing and yet people are starving from famine?
4. Why does Somalia have one of the lowest GDP's and GDP's per capita in Africa? If not the world?
5. Why is the Somali IQ at a 68?
6. Why haven't Somalis contributed anything in the field of science or engineering?
7. Why doesn't Somalia have a central government?

Try answering these thing instead of going on about trivial things such as past history and looks. LMAO!!!

And mind you my ancestors not only made history by being the first to have the most successful slave revolt in history, but also defeating three "white" world powers at the time and kicking them off their own island. Something never achieved by Somalis.

While Somalis were getting colonized by the British and Italians(lol!!!), my people were trying to fight European imperialism. Which Somalis were under.

Now, lets talk about Somalia, because I see this is a subject you and other somalis keep trying to avoid, and how it's a nation on the most resource rich continent occupying the best strategic location on the continent with a long coast with vibrant fishing waters. So, exactly how is it that your people are having famines and literally dying of starvation over there? Not only that, but it's resources are largely untapped. There is MASSIVE opportunity there. Somalia was consider prime for investment at one time. Remember the America oli company Conoco’s had multimillions of dollars invested there, which many people speculate was the real reason for the deployment of troops to Somalia in 1991. But uhh.....you guys blew the lid of of that arrangement to say the least when blackhawk down happened and foreign visitors who invested in your Ubsom bank were kidnapped(Oh well, back to al-shabab style sharia halah banking then). Somalia has all of the natural tools set in place for your nation to be the shining star of both Africa and the Muslim world, so why is it instead the most economically barren place of both?

The fact that you know all that tells me you're aware of the 'whys' of collapse, but who knows? You could as well choose to believe that it's due to the 'average' Somali having an IQ of - what was it - 68??
