Yero my friend,
 
You missed a wonderful opportunity to earn your stripes as a prolific  
journalist worth admiration. I want to thank you for your regard of me as I hold  
you in equal esteem. What you failed to do was to assist Jabou in recognizing  
where I called the southside of Chicago as "Shitside". You did not share with 
us  where I did, nor did you advise due-diligence and honour in community. 
Allah  would have loved you for it. We must not worry too much about Haruna for 
his  life is an open book for all to see and comment on. Our individual 
relations  with Allah and Community hold more gravitasse and hope for our own 
salvations. I  am a bit disappointed in you too. I am not sure why you found it 
valuable to  drag Ousman's name in your "mediation". Ousman is a solid Human. He has 
 demonstrated that to us all. Ousman will not malign any in this community 
for  expediency sakes. I advise you forgive his name from soil.
 
Your "friend" Haruna. I encourage you to work further to stand up for truth  
for life's worth. For Rabbil Aalameen sakes.

Sister  Jabou & Ousman,

Ousman, greetings there! I keenly followed the  debate of my friend Haruna. I 
think that he is too much into this Edwards  fellow to an extent, far in his 
support of him-'el d' gore.' Having said that,  he deserves a pardon from both 
you and Jabou. If Haruna were of the Black  Panthers like my friend, Dr. 
Larry Pinkney, that would have been another  excuse I would take from him, for the 
later alleged of Obama’s pretentious  black blood but dines the opposite. 
Further that he boycotted their rallies. I  will check my archives to forward the 
said piece which I didn’t end up  publishing. But it is obvious if Obama 
joins them in their activism, there is  a tendency to loose the opposites' support 
today. So he (Obama) is playing his  politics well. 

On the other hand, Haruna’s John Edward Darboe won’t  make a bad president 
like some of the world’s characters observed, notably  Bush and Blair moving 
the world to wars. That’s a complete turn-off.  

In my view, Obama is a hope for liberation for both the minorities and  the 
many others trapped in the ‘color’ panorama. The latest smear campaign  
against the guy about attending ‘dara’ at younger age, or being from a Muslim  
family is in fact a plus to the guy. The Clinton Campaign is not scoring  points 
with it. In fact, hardly will any listen to them. If such is to be  raised at 
all, then that would violate the very religious tolerance they are  preaching. 
It brings to memory our Muslim brother in Congress from Minnesota  whose 
records of modesty is in the open-The Honorable Keith Ellision (May God  prolong 
his life.) The US congress came to disarray upon his decision to take  oath 
using the Holy Quran then. The ‘storms in the tea-cups’ then were not  justified 
because what you believe in, take oath with it. 

Lastly,  Haruna missed the beauty of Chicago when he had an opportunity to 
grace UGAMA  on Labor Day (September 2007) at the mid-west conference. He was no 
where to  be seen or heard on the phone despite numerous fruitless efforts, 
but those  that did will not tease at Chicago in the way he did. 

So my challenge  to him is to layout John Edward Darboe’s plan of actions.

Otherwise,  thanks for the debate, and all three of you have some educative  
points.

Regards, 
Yero.
