Cornelius,
I am done with this discussion. Go in peace. May Allah
grant you peace to be in peace with yourself. May Allah grant your
peace and the wisdom to fight for justice for all of His creation.
May
Allah grant peace and prosperity to you, me, your family, my family,
all those subscribed to the lists and all His creation. May Allah
bring
peace and prosperity to all troubled spots on earth. May Allah soften
the hearts of oppressors and bring peace to Palestine. May Allah
bring
enough peace to your heart to make you realise that people can
criticise racist and oppressive policies be they those perpetrated by
Israel, Zionists, Arabs, Africans, Americans, Europeans or Asians. Go
in peace and note that at least one Muslim has prayed for peace.
Buharry.

Subj: Re: Re: Zionism
You want to put up a show? For? ME?’
You want to rap?
Of course, I am an academic and - naturally an intellectual.
As AbdalQadir once said, “By definition, a Muslim is an intellectual”
If I am not then it doesn’t bother me.

There are quite a few in my family, you know, I am not the only one.
My better half , my daughters are too – both are distinguished - one
is a gold Medallist First /First in Law University of London ,
another
with a Masters is a well placed Civil Servant in the United Kingdom.
Here's one:
http://mccammon.ucsd.edu/~dhamelbe/resume-web.pdf
But that’s not the only company I keep.
When my son was thirteen, he was more advanced than I was at
seventeen
and when I was seventeen, I was at the top of what I liked – and that
includes any school in Gambia.
I’m just chatting man. I can rap too – even on my guitar.
Look I’m not an interesting person to discuss with. You want to make
a
name for yourself, don’t engage me.
I was only telling you (the examiner) that I intend to start with
question 12 -
and I was going to tell you about the Dhimmi status of Jews in
Islamic
lands, and the occasional massacres, pogroms, but on the whole the
Arabs , and Muslims treated the Jewish people much better than the
Christians have done in Europe, starting with Merry England ,
Spain,………
..
My mother tells me that I spoke Krio English and Fullah (with my
girlfriend BONGOR, a neighbour’s child.) when I was little.
From the age of six, when I arrived in England, I lost Krio and
English, although I do not remember any gradual disappearance. It was
as if it was an instantaneous disappearance since there was no one
that
I could speak Fullah or Krio with.
Let’s not talk about mother tongues. There are many. Interest in
India
can take you to Sanskrit, just as I expect you to be polishing off
your
Arabic, the language of the Koran…
