ReplyDeleteKutawaliwa na warabu ni maafa ya kibinaadamu, kwa vile ni jamii yenye uwezo mdogo sana wa kufikiri.
ReplyDeleteMimi nadhani hata matatizo tuliyonayo sasa hivi Z'bar ya kubaguana na kutokuelewana yanatokana na urithi (legacy) ya Waarabu.
Kule kwao wote hawafahamiani, kila siku wanapigwa na wazungu kwa ujinga wao!
Ningesema tuwashukuru tu, kwa kutuletea Uislamu, lakini nimekumbuka Uislamu hapa uliletwa na Washiraz ambao kijografia ni watu wa kusini ya Iran.
'Wrong attitude' za waarabu ndizo hata zinazo itesa nchi ya Iran ambayo ndiyo pekee watu wake waliokwenda skuli.
Ndio maana kuna wakati waziri mmoja wa Kenya Moses Wetangulla: aliwahi kusema "It's a geographical accident for Kenya being in the horn of Africa which's close to Arabian peninsuler"
