Hard Truths
--- "Most men would rather deny a hard truth than face it" --- Tyrion Lannister
This will be the first in a series of posts entitled "Hard Truths". We, as country(Somalia) and as a global religious community(Ummada Muslinka), have been crippled by our refusal to face hard truths and our soothing reliance on ignorance, superstition, dogma, and fairy-tales has made us, without question, the shithole of Planet Earth. As the saying goes, Ignorance is Bliss. Why face the hard truth of inescapable poverty, starvation, and famine when you can spin tales of "batrool baa Soomalia laga heleyay, wacad'alle" and "yuuranium'ka adoonka baa dhulkeena ku duugan, aahaay"? Why face the hard truth of pervasive religious intolerance in every single Muslim society, down to the local community & family level, which in turn directly leads to global bloodletting on a historical scale, when you can just denounce anybody who doesn't believe whatever shit you believe in as a "murtad, kaafir, innovator, hizbee".
The difference between us and the West, is that in the West, conspiracy-theorists and religious-literalists are viewed with rightful derision and are the butt of every joke. In stark contrast, we ennoble and exalt our conspiracy theorists and religious-literalists. Because they are us. And we are them. Because we would rather blame our wretched existence and our ever-present failures and defeats, no no no, not on ourselves, never that, but on Ze Germans, and Ze Yahood, and Ze Faqash and Ze Jinni. Without a hint of irony, some of us(udun, haye duqa) will say: "Wacad'Alle, Yahuud lacnad baa saaran", as they lead the world in various high-tech fields and revolutionize entire industries. China and India, 5000 year old civilizations, have to beg tiny little Israel for their tech needs. But all that doesn't matter, because as, Udun/Kaafie/Granpa/AbuukarSubeer all know very well, "yahooda wa lacnad baa saraan, jahanama'ba sugaysa, aahay, waa caynkaa ina adeer. Aakhiro zamaan'ka, xataa geedaha waxay ku oran, "Muslim'ow, waxaa igu daba gambanaayo yahoodi oo kaalay shaqo ka qabo".
And so, as we yearn for the return of a non-existent mythical glorious past(the Caliphate, which never existed but that's another story), as we dream and pray for the End-Times(Aakhiro Zamaan waa sanadka soo socdo, aahaay), the rest of the world continues it's marvelous march into modernity, leaving us stuck in the mud and muck of religious dogma, sectarian division & bloodshed, and conspiracy-theorizing.
Hadaba, as Jid-Toosiye's, as Correctifiers of the Errant Path, as a Reformers of the Grand Reformation, it has fallen to us band of brothers, led by men like Tariq Ramadan, Adnan Ibrahim, and Leftist Jid-Toosiye to enact and foster a radical paradigm-shift in the way we understand, interpret, and implement Islam, as well as the way we practice our dhaqan/culture.
But before the Reformation can plant itself in the hearts and minds of those who need it the most, the masaakin masses suffering from centuries of shitty dogma and even shittier governance, before the Reformation can take root in our collective wadno & caqli, there first has to be a willingness, a readiness to face painful reality as it is, not as we want it to be; to accept hard-truths and deal with it using ice-cold reason and passion-free logic, not what some Mother-Hubbard who lived in the 10th century said or did.
And so here we are, on the eve of Ramadan, a test of sorts: are we willing to accept Hard Truths? Let us find out. For if Golaha Barakaysan ee SomaliNet is unwilling(or unable) to accept hard truths, then there is very little hope for the masaakin toiling masses who are deluded and misguided by corrupt men-of-the-cloth and the tyrants(religous or secular) that govern them.

Re: Hard Truths
Delusion: The illegal occupation of Palestine will end, and the Zionists will be kicked out of Palestine, and all of Palestine will be governed by the Palestinians/The Caliphate/The Mahdi. The lion will lay down with the lamb, Ned Stark never died, it was a "gotcha" by GRRM, and Tupac Makavelli will be resurrected on the 20th anniversary of his supposed death.
Hard Truth: The Jewish State of Israel is here to stay. There is no force on Earth(or Mars or Jupiter) that can 'dismantle' it. Not the Mahdi. Not the Caliphate. As long human civilization exists, so will the Jewish State of Israel, a state for the Jews, run by the Jews.
Who here is willing to accept this hard truth?

Re: Hard Truths

Maybe not, maybe you need to be slapped across the face with some cold hard facts. Ok. This is what I'll do. I will give you the absolute best case scenario you could possibly hope/wish/pray/dream(isn't that all you do?) for. And then, I will take you by the hand, and show you, that even in this wildly unrealistic best-case-scenario, the Jewish State of Israel #staywinning.
Fantasy best-case-scenario: Sometime over the next century, the long-awaited The Mahdi makes his appearance. In short order, he's able to unite the warring, bickering, Muslim masses into one Super-Caliphate where his authority is Supreme. He then marshals all of the natural resources of the Muslim world, and under his guidance, the Caliphate becomes the world's leading economic and military power. The nations of the world race to pay tribute to him and to benefit from Muslim tech know-how and resources.
We good, we cool? Isn't this fantasy what your shuyookh be telling you? For argument's sake, I'm just giving you the fantasy-khuraafat you believe in. For argument's sake, I'm accepting it as reality, just to show you, that even with that fantasy-based, best-case-scenario, you're/we're still a failure.
Now, we come to the paramount matter of Al-Quds/Jeresualam, which before the Rise of the Caliphate, is recognized by the rest of the world as Israel's eternal capital.
So, just like Umar bin Khattab, came to Jerusalem himself to accept it's surrender; The Mahdi travels to Jerusalem for the same purpose, but unfortunately, not the same outcome.
The Mahdi: Hello, mother-hubbard, hey, hi, how you durin, My name is the Mahdi, i be coming to
Avi Ben Zion: Shalom, homie. Wuz good witchu doe. Uh, dap?
The Mahdi: *exchanges dap to further peace*: Mr. Ben-Zion, Just like my predecessor, Umar bin Khattab, did 1500 years ago, I've come here to accept the surrender of Jerusalem. And just as Umar was magnanimous and merciful ,so will I be. You can keep your wealth but you will vacate the settlements, orchids, farms, and cities you illegally occupied since the 1920s. To make this transition of power as peaceful and smooth as possible, and to preside over a era of peace, I will appoint a Emir of your own choosing.
Avi Ben Zion: Bro, uh, I'm not sure I'm following you. This land was a desert when we came here in the 1920s. Through sweat, blood, toil, tears, and a little bit of murder and thievery, just like you guys did when you burst outa the Arabian Peninsula in the 7th century(editor's note: when we do it, it's justice; when they do it, it's illegal occupation) we created an Garden of Eden on earth. We are self-sufficient in water resources thanks to our world-leading desalination techmology. In fact, we've been exporting water to some of your emirates....for free... as a gesture of neighborly-wadaag We're self-sufficient in food & agriculture. So why, oh, why, would we surrender? I mean bro, we just wanna live in peace you know? Let bygones be bygones.
The Mahdi: Naaaaaaaaaaaaaah, son, you guys are illegal occupiers of Palestinian Muslim land. Muguu waa iska bac'bac'san jirteen, but now, I done come on the scene and it's time for y'all to dip-set back to Europe and Russia where you came from.
Avi Ben Zion: Most Esteemed Bro, With all due respect to your Bro'ness, We cannot accept your proposal.
The Mahdi: Ok, um, um, have you taken a look at your satellite feeds over the past few months, specifically the border areas
Avi Ben Zion: Yes, we have.
The Mahdi: And what do you see?
Avi Ben Zion: Well, according to our geo-spatial experts, there is a 10 million man army lining our borders from Golan to Sinai. Kinda weird, but whatevs.
The Mahdi: Uh-huh, uh-huh, and perchance, do you think those 10 millions soldiers, which is the largest single army that has ever marched in history, are there for sight-seeing, qadar yar oo dalxees ah?
Avi Ben Zion: Well, we were thinking it was a military exercise of some sort, you know. We've never had problems with your Caliphate so there was no problemo, you know bro?
The Mahdi: And if you surrender, hand over Jerusalem, and go back to Europe, or stay and pay reparations, guess what, we can still maintain that "no problemo" record and peace will be had for all. So what do you say, Avi? Shall we have peace in our time?
Avi Ben Zion: You know what, man, I've been trying to be polite all this time, but you done woke the dragon. And so I say to you, sir: "LIKE A SOMEBODY, FUK YOU BIK"
The Mahdi *stunned silence*: You can't talk to me like zis! I am Ze Mahdi, I have Caliphate Basaaboooor!
Avi Ben Zion: Whatever man. Eff outa here with that BS. Tam'bout surrender Jerusalem and go back to Europe. Ni99a, maxaa isku malaysay?
The Mahdi: Ok, mada'faking guy, ok mada-asshole bastard guy, if i snap my fingers, my 10 million man army will storm the border, and it'll be a wrap. I've got an army at your doorstep that is the size of your entire population. I've got the whole wide world paying tribute to me. I'm the GOAT, like what do you not understand?
Avi Ben Zion: I would not advise invading the Jewish Homeland, broski.
The Mahdi: Why not?
Avi Ben Zion: Because the minute your soldiers step one foot on this Promised Land of Yehovah, you will have officially dun goof'd, and the consequences will never be the same.
The Mahdi: conse-...what??? What r u talking about?
Avi Ben Zion: Do you like Mecca? Hmm. You like Madinah? Hmmm. Would be a shame if something happened to...
The Mahdi: YOU MADA-ASSHOLE, you would never dare!
Avi Ben Zion: Bruh, you da one coming here with a 10 million man army tam'bout we gotta go back to Europe? I'm just sayin: don't start nu'eh, won't be nu'eh. You start su'eh, it gon be su'eh.
The Mahdi:


Avi: Well, I'm just saying, we have a couple of nuclear submarines in the Red Sea, the Mediatarinan, the Indian Ocean, and the Pacific, and uh, should you choose to invade my country, well, just think of the biblical verse: "from to dust to dust", except this would be radioactive dust, if you know what I mean.
Arright folk, I'm tired of all this typing. You get the point. Even in this fantasy best case scenario, even with the entire Muslim world united, even with all that, Israel still stay winning, still stay thriving. Why? How? Because instead of dogma and fairy tales, instead of "hal al' Quran makhlooq ow ghayru makhlooq?", instead of "yaa shaykh, as'shiica/al'axmadiyah/al'zunooj, hal yuctabaroon muslimeen? Cir'dahum xalaal yaa shaykh?", they dedicated themselves to science and technology until they led the world in any number of high-tech fields. Because instead of wishful thinking and "khayr baa imaanayaa", they have contingency planning for every single possible scenario. Famine? Got a plan for that. International boycott? Got a plan for that. The Mahdi invading you with a 10 milion army? Got a plan for that. Murder my athletes at the Olympics? Fuckin A, I got a plan for that, and you won't like it One. Single. Bit.
So my question to you is: Are you willing to accept this hard truth? Or do you still think that boycott & divestment, or demographic growth will somehow force Israel to stop being a Jewish state?
Palestinians have 3 choices, axlaa'hum mur:
- Be subsumed into Jordan, Egypt and Syria.
- become citizens of Israel
- some form of weak, watered down autonomous self rule, you know, the same way PG County has local autonomy over it's school-board(not even, i think), but is governed by the State of Maryland, which in turn is governed by the Federal Goverment. So yeah, Palestine will basically be PG County.
Didn't have to be this way, but it sho' 'nuff is reality. And boy does reality BITE, and boy is it's bite painfully harsh. The weakness, stupidity, and irrationality, of the previous generations of the Muslim world and the Arab world, centuries upon centuries of fake-ass tradition and calcified 'madh'habs'(all madhabs allow slavery to this very day), is what led to this painful present-day reality, and the even more painful reality to come. If men-of-the-cloth mother-hubbards, didn't shut down Ijtihaad(innovative independent reasoning), if they celebrated innovation(bidah! bidah!) and creativity instead of chopping of heads for heresy, if they actually applied the Islamic principles of Equality, Justice, Tolerance instead of paying lip-service to it and perpetuating heinous evil of slavery, the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution might very well have happened in Damascus or Baghdad or Istanbul or Cairo. But nah, B, we wanna be pure, purity is what we seek. We are "special" and "better" than other religions who have changed by modernity. /s
Israel ensured it's eternal survival and growth the very minute it made it's 1st nuclear device; up until that moment, it could've been defeated. If the Ay-rabs got their shit together, they could've easily, and I mean EASILY, defeated Isreal in '48 and '67, and anytime prior, but no, just like us Somalis today, they divided themselves into a thousand and one sects, groups, statelets, and ideologies. And so, even if the whole world boycots Israel(which will never happen, but for arguments' sake), even if the Mahdi/Nabi Ciisa come out and a Super-Caliphate arises, even in that best-case Romantic Fantasy............... the Jewish State of Israel #staywinning
All thanks to Science, Technology, Unity(qabiil qaran ma noqdo), Modernity, Reason, Logic, and a pair of Huge Swinging Xininyo.
So do you accept this Hard Truth now?

Re: Hard Truths
Gibberish. This fella named Leftist wants to brag about Israel, his false reformation, but then he does not believe in any thing that Islam stand for. He does not even believe Islam's third holiest shrine, and yet he is running with "reforming" Islam?
I remember in one of his previous posts, him talking about bringing Bahai and Qadyaanis (aka Ahmadiyya ) as part of mainstream Islam in his so-called "Reforming" Islam project.
It makes you wonder why people who left Islam has an obsession with Islam at the sametime? If you don't believe in Islam, the Muslim Caliphates, the Masjid Al-Aqsa being the Third Holiest Shrine in Islam, what is this bogus "reform" that these people are running with?
The history of Jerusalem, its current fate, and its future has clear Muslim prophesies. No need to go in detail in a forum, but as Muslims, we believe it will be the last seat of the Muslim Caliphate, led by Son of Mary - the True Messiah - (peace be upon him). How it will come, don't ask me, but that is a clear prophesy in Islam.
With respect to Israel being technologically advanced, why do they then need American economy and military aid every year if they are highly advanced? What about the German war reparations that continued from 1945 till today? I am not sure how this guy can overlook Turkey who is same par technologically with Israel, if not even more advanced, than his darling Israel? Israel's GDP is $291 billion whereas Turkey is $822 billion USD.
The lush greens that you mentioned in Occupied Palestine - where your darling Zionists are planting there - are the box-thorn tree (aka Al-Qarghad tree) that has been mentioned in a clear hadith. I will not get into the details of this, but every devout Muslim knows and believes the details of this hadith!
There are no hard truths we need to accept, and you have not presented any of them. You and your likes are dreaming. Truth is, the same Islam that you hate will prevail and your fake "reform" will never materialize, your beloved Baha'i, Qadyaanis, and your bogus "Reform" project led by the false prophet fella named Adnan will never find presence in mainstream Islam

Re: Hard Truths
If in 1988, I would have said the Soviet Union will collapse next year, everone in the world would have laughed. The amazing thing, about nations powers, empires, etc. is that no one realizes it's over, until it's actually to late. That being said, much grander nations have come on gone, nothing is forever, technology or not.
