Found a gorgeous Penguin Classics novella at a free library. This author is totally new to me.

Always Israel and the US with weird votes.
Russian Embassy in Kenya/Посольство России в Кении@russembkenya
❗️UNGA Adopts Ghana's Resolution labeling slave trade as gravest crime against humanity A long overdue recognition. The transatlantic slave trade devastated #Africa and shaped centuries of inequality

One example in Kalenjin; the version of raising a white flag in war was raising grass (kipkandulit). If the enemy does that, they've surrendered, you can't kill them. Raising grass can also be used to seek forgiveness locally.

@rerei_nathan Is that like Ethics in War?

Air Captain Mr.Khorramshahr thinks otherwise.👨✈️🚀

Iran doesn't even have the ability to cross the Persian Gulf by water or air. Just so you know.. most of the talking heads in Iran live in an alternative state of non-reality.

@Bygones_24 I read that the Turkana came later after the Borana and found them herding these strange necked beasts so I kinda wondered where originally did the Turkana come from if they never had camels in the north?
English
Its really same thing. Tamas was original cushitic for girafee. When somalis n rendile got camel they called them camel.
Kipchumba Arap Maina.@Pchumba__sawe
Northen kales call camel tamas
English
By Kipsigis old raiding ideology, the current economic activity of mulot and sharp boys is not a bad thing😂, maybe what need to be learned from the old way though is how you leave something small for the victim. Like how they used to leave at least a cow for the victim raided

I wouldn't even bother doing a Ngubu substack but c'mon, the Jugaadifiation of Kenya isn't something to be proud of! Ama Kenya is the new Nigeria? Smh

Jugaad (Indian) means finessing a system, tricking or beating it using legal and sometimes illegal so long as it's not openly noted and one could get away with it. Its Kenyan equivalent is "ujanjez" something here we like to call "sharpness" and "streetwise".

@LLoiteri81924 Back to Nilotes - Western Nilotes we know kept cows for prestige and for dowry (dinka is expected to pay upto 300 cows for girl).
Eastern Nilotes have KULE - iteso/maasai/turkana
So it is unlikely Kalenjin retained CAk/Chak from its old nilotic days.
That is rigours history
English
Interestingly, Kalenjin changed from Eastern .Cushitic aano to Chego for milk. Datoga retain the Eastern Cushitic loan word for milk.
Arap Rerei@rerei_nathan
In Kalenjin (Kipsigis based) 1. Chego - milk 2. Lolong'oiywek - fresh milk 3. Mursik - fermented milk 4. Sumbarariet - cream 5. Masachek - remnant liquid after creaming of milk

@Bygones_24 @shirleyketer @FourthArchetype @SpryVoice @Wambuguu_ @TiskTusk I read that the Samburu and Turkana came sometime after the Borana who they found keeping "strange animals" camels and had warriors. I'll try to find the exact record taken from oral history. Also, check out this.
QME
Did you know? Wosek in Kalenjin = milk mixed with charcoal/ash for preservation.
The same root appears in Oromo (wosee/wosa) — milk treated with ash or smoke.
Definitely Mursik/Wosek might have Oromo/Borana roots.
Chemosi@pkarnet
@Bygones_24 @LLoiteri81924 Kipsigis in menjo sing.."Anyiny chechon bo Borana"... Meaning we learnt a think or two about milk from Borana community
English
Well, the colonial edifice had to go - eventually. I took most of the carpets in the statehouse and a few of topnotch fittings - my guy who does demolition normally calls me for such deals - before demolishing kilimani or westland houses - I go in and buy whatever is great.

After enjoying her money then she asks me
"Are we ever going to have sex?"

The great Jewish physician and scholar Maimonides:
"With regard to a gentile idolater with whom we are not at war... we should not try to cause their deaths. It is, however, forbidden to save their lives if their lives are threatened. For example, if such a person fell into the sea, one should not rescue him. Leviticus 19:16 states: 'Do not stand idly by while your brother's blood is at stake.' This does not apply with regard to such individuals, because they are not 'your brothers.'"
From Mishneh Torah, Murderer and the Preservation of Life, 4, 11

@IntrepidKomen @TheTsarCule Yeap they overfly Syria and Iraq like they own it.. Basically the desired fate is to be just that, a rug they can walk over whenever

You're one of the people who are going to be completely appalled when Iranian Civil Society is finally free to tell you what the IRGC has been doing to Iranians.
Moi era numbers will pale in comparison.
I@W_Asherah
Looking at Iran fighting back, one has to wonder if they're keeping them in that state to prevent whatever they would become from ever seeing the light of day. Them Persians would flourish. Hope to see a world where they/we get to exist free of colonization.
