He was well dressed and looked very sharp. Compare that to your current president of southern somalia who wears over sized suits with no underpants.

Edna is just masha'Allah. She'd look better with an Abaya though.

How do you know if a man is wearing pants or not?
PS Egal (aun) was the last of the Somali political giants....the present politicians are a disgrace to the nation.

OMG!!! What a stunning photo! I could have fun analyzing this, but I will be brief. The most glaring thing is--President LBJ is in the photo at all! Wow! He was a giant of a bully president! LOL Poor Humphrey- who is standing looking sad. (Humphrey airport here in Minnesota is named after him) He was bullied by LBJ to his wits. Is that his freaking wife? She looks like his mother. This must have been after Kennedy was shot. Post 63, lady bird his wife looks healthier and happy.


Now--back to the Somalis. Edna looks refined and petite. She is wearing a simple evening gown, sleeveless, with woven golden thread and a matching simple golden falling earings. Quite capturing the era of Jackie Kennedy days. (unfortunately this tells me she was gaalo type) She looks exceptionally pretty for a hawiye woman. (is she Hawiye?) I have not doubt LBJ was attracted to her. That devil. Look at him standing/cutting between her and Egal. Egal looks exceptionally a smart gentleman. A little bit unbalanced female hormone in his body, evidenced by his big futo which can be viewed even without his back exposed. He wears the exact large reading glass of Obama senior. (go google him) Obama's dad was a reputed genius in academic, I have no doubt Egal was too. I don't like his small hands though, it bespeaks a shortcoming of a bigger picture.

side notes: Egal has the spirits of Winston Churchill, they both have that naturally depressed soul look who abuse alcohol. Egals face looks like the black Churchill version.


Overall, Mashallaah.

Indeed he was.

AUN.

I personally know here. I met her in Somaliland when my uncle was president, she was the foreign minister at the time. It's clear she is arap of Issaq. She's a well spoken and articulate woman. Her manner of dress did not allude to her being a gaalo. Frankly, that's how people dressed in those days before the jilbab became en vogue.

How do you even know that?

Basra you didnt see where humphreys left hand creaped off to?

Baasto

I saw it. I didn't feel the need to point it out. As u can see, his fist is clenched. Had it be unclenched, open, and the fingers lingering towards Edna's booty--that would have been another story. Humphrey was the consummate gentleman. I don't think he was the ladies man type. He had an inherent Midwestern polite persona, contradicted with LBJ's rough and coarse texas manliness. The funny thing is--Kennedy used to belittle and some what bully LBJ, albeit in a gentle, psychological way, and LBJ took it. Because how can u not? Kennedy was the president. Kennedy used to rub him with his good looks, sophistication of style and brain, and patronize him for being a big dumb bully. Kennedys brother---who was attorney general despised LBJ. They used to constantly fight and Kennedy would be between them. Sadly, LBJ learned the bulliness from Kennedy and did it on Humphrey.


Side notes: Look at the Somali goons at the back round? Are they body guards or just fellow qabils?


Edna---surprisingly looks cute, if only she was not too dark skinned. A tinge of brownness would have been welcome. (light skin is over rated)

Am "I" revealing too much knowledge? Sometimes I make an effort to suppress my genius in any subject in question. But I cant help it.

Basra,

You let me down today by mistaking Edna Adan Ismail of the great Arab subclan of Isaac for a Hawiye Bantu Back in those days Hawiye woman had only one job in the Somali society referred to as boyaso (maid) or jariyad in North.



You should know that Isaac leaders don't mix with Hawiye, even Godane who lived amongst the Hawiye did not marry from them.

In 2014 Hawiye woman, still 250 years behind. Still dressing like boyaso who is going on a date with a Badouin Sheikh. Even the jacket was picked up from Karmel Mall. The Hawiye male is no better. He can't even do the second button of his over-sized baggy suit jacket. All in all what we see is that Hawiye lags in class and sophistication as well as rule of law.

Hawdian.

Never seen an Isaq who hate Hawiye so much.

If anything there is more history and bad blood between Isaq and Daarood (not that am saying you should switch) so i wonder where does all this hate stem from?

waar ma qabadh bey ku diideen

cigaal's wife and the two other women are all dressed in a similar way.
very hard to tell who's muslim and who's not.
i would say president johnson's wife is the closet to being a muslim, at least she has her entire arms covered.

Jalaaludin,

I do not hate Hawiye. I hate nobody. I am only putting things into perspective and I understand for Somalis everything is an emotional note.


Edna in Munich received by the mayor.



I had the pleasure of meeting Edna in Hargeisa.

Hawdian



U r funny. Thanks for posting the photos btw. The second photos shows a later date photo--all the parties are slightly older. Edna seems to have up'ed her sense of fashion. My question is --why were they a frequent visitors to the white house? Yaab badaana. Did edna fcuk LBJ??? I am beginning to think something fishy huuno.



PS Edna is arab isaaq? Habar jeclo?
