Q: What does Yoko Ono have in common with the Somalians?

A: They both live off of dead beetles ( Beatles ).

She found out the hard way that there is nothing good happening in somalia, and that none of them should be allowed to enter this country.

It is a natural as a location for the second state for the “Palestinians”. Ocean, lots of sand, Satan’s Siren Songs five times a day, and loads of darker skinned people they can lord over.

Some people just refuse to acknowledge reality and insist on their naive worldview....until reality smacks them in the face.

This is really sad. Why would anyone go there? Then, I never could understand why Obama would “vacation” in Pakistan.

I think you’re talking about Keith B. Richburg’s “Out of America: A Black Man Confronts Africa” published in 1997.

Richburg was a WAPO correspondent based in Nairobi for about three years. There’s plenty in his book about Somalia.

I’ve read “Out of America” three times over the years, and may very well pick it up again, it’s that good.

Richburg is presumably a liberal, but he’s also a real reporter.

As an retired newspaperman myself — various small dailies around the South for 25 years — I usually can tell within a few pages whether a writer is trying to push some agenda, or is he just going with the facts, hurtful as they may be to his personal prejudices.

And we all have personal prejudices. The question is: Do you have the mental fortitude to recognize a fact when it jumps up and tries to bite you?

Richburg’s “Out of America” passes the test. I cannot recommend this book enough.

Perhaps they could explain the Somali pirates?

Wow! Talk about bad judgment... The now-dead “journalist” must have chewed-on too much quat.

$18,000/year for a nice lifestyle is the claim.

If you only live for 2 months, $18 K will serve you nicely:)

I don’t post photos but you could have chosen the photo of her eating in an Ontario restaurant what looked like the biggest plate of food I’ve seen outside of the Coney Island Hot Dog Contest. It was in a Somalian restaurant in a town called Rexdale, I believe. It’s what I would call a photo of “the good life.”

She made a stupid choice, actually, and barely lasted a day. Which was the President’s point.

I’m sure The media worshippers of the anti-American Omar will report this story. /s

You didn't include pictures of terrified sailors and cruise passengers being told they would be tortured and killed if their nations and/or employers and/or families didn't cough up huge sums of ransom money.

Don't preach to me about most of this thread being in poor tasted until you include those pictures.

Pirates of Somalia was indeed a non-fiction story, a true story. These people are animals.

Normally I don’t laugh when stupid people meet with death, but I found myself chuckling when I read this headline.

Notice, esp. in travel brochures, that you never see photos of the slums, or dead animals hanging above dirt roads in the 100 degree heat! A good bout of E.coli will set you straight. Did for me in Egypt...puke!
