Reward for Obama: 10 camels! Somali Islamists respond to US bounty

June 09, 2012 16:56

First, the US State Department offered up to $33 million for help in catching the leaders of radical Islamist group Shabab, which controls much of Somalia. But Shabab has made a counter-proposal: a bounty of 10 camels for Barack Obama.

If this is a genuine article, I don't think this group quite understands how the reward system works. It reads more like a joke,  offer a low reward because the "target" has no worth!!!! If the target has no value, why kill him/her?

@CON:
Trust me, the large majority of Americans would like the rest of the world to go on with their lives, as would we. Our govt is out of control, Our "elected" officials need to be unelected, and we really, REALLY would like to just have a life of work, leisure, and enjoying life. 
And... BTW to you yahoos putting out camels as a bounty: Really? you cannot do any better than *camels*. Why not oil land? Cash? A couple choice ladies as well? Gold's nice.... 
But camels? If you're going to get people salivating- TRY HARDER. :-D

The Monk (unregistered) wrote in #2The truth was he couldn't afford more than that. The fact that he was in Pakistan, he should stop hiding behind women and children and come out and fight!!! One should stand up for their beliefs and not hire the poor or children to blow themselves up! The difference between such so called leaders is that the USA military commanders are on the ground fighting with their troops and the Taliban commanders are hiding in a cave.--------------- -------------------- -------------------- ----What a load of B.S. is this why your cowardly US army is slaughtering innocent civilions all over the world with UNMANNED drons and cruse missiles?

I think the people of Somalia would just settle for the Americans leaving them and their country alone-camels or no camels.

The way for an old, frustrated cow to come to terms with oneself is to compare notes with Monica, and see where one can improve one's self esteem.  That way, one won't make such a public fool of oneself.

10 Camels?  Why are black people so cheap all the time? They usually don't
tip either.

To those of you who have never been to the Mid-East, this is a joke. The wives of Europeans often encounter guides and locals who offer an estimate of say 50-100 camels in a flattering gesture. 10 Camels is not flattering, hence the joke. Obama will be laughing over this one!!

10 camels is way too much for O'bomba and Killary Clinton is not worth a sneeze.

To: The monk:
the USA military commanders and their troops are fighting kosher wars all over the World and slautering civilians on a much bigger scale than talibs.

Clinton is way overvalued at ten hens and ten roosters. Five ugly ducklings would be more like the going rate.

It reminds of such a bounty offered by a local tribesman here years ago for Clinton when the Americans fired cruise missiles into Afghanistan. He had then offered a sum of 150 US dollars for Clinton's head. When asked if it wasn't too small an amount for the head of American president, he replied 'No, the head of American President is not worth more than that' !!
