Friday Sermon


Today I chose to tell you the story of Caterina Migliorini!
She is the 20-year-old Brazilian beauty who announced her decision to sell her virginity in an international auction!
This beautiful woman may be a prostitute in the eyes of some ignorant people, but in my opinion and in the eyes of many rational people, she is a pure and pure human being who taught many Arabs and the West the meaning of honor!

In 2011 AD, 13 children died as a result of poverty and cold in a very poor state called Sint Catarina in southern Brazil, in addition to hundreds of poor families who began to suffer from the spread of diseases and their transformation into epidemics.

For a whole year, 20-year-old physical education teacher Caterina Migliorini did not invite an international charitable organization that did not appeal to her to save her town and city from the scourge of poverty, but all her attempts failed.

In 2012 AD, this beautiful Brazilian woman announced via the Internet her decision to sell her virginity in a global auction in order to help the poor and build homes to shelter the people of her city from the heat of summer and the cold of winter. This news sparked great controversy in Brazil and a violent attack on her from the newspapers.

After just one week, the number of participants in the global auction reached 890 businessmen from all over the world!

An Arab man from the Gulf paid her $1,500,000 in order to take her virginity, which caused a great shock to Katrina, especially since it coincided with the events in Syria and the increase in Syrians displaced from their country.

The next day, Katrina canceled the auction and sent a message to the Arab businessman: “If you thought about the poor for one hour a day instead of your penis, you would eliminate poverty in your countries.”

Katrina gained wide fame around the world because of her stunning beauty and extreme humanity. She won hundreds of international awards and honors and became a global star on a reality TV show in exchange for a contract for the agency to build all residential homes and help the poor in the state of Saint Katrina.

And we keep repeating,
  Honor is in your minds, gentlemen,
  In your consciences, in your hearts, not in your genitals!!

I wish you could learn from Katrina the meaning of “honor”!

PRESIDENT HASSAN SHEIKH MOHAMUD: A WINNER IN SOMALI FOREIGN POLICY, BUT FAILURE IN DOMESTIC FRONT

WDM EDITORIAL

There is no denying that the current Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud has achieved tremendous foreign policy successes despite criticism of his domestic approach. Somalia’s ascent to membership in the East African Community Block and lifting of long running arms embargo on Somalia are significant foreign policy achievements few believed could be done. And with the expected Debt Relief, Somalia is moving forward. But, a sound management of these policy successes, together with the Federal Member States, is key to a successful implemention. Congratulations to the President HSM. Despite its challenging domestic problems, Somalia is back in the world arena because of the President’s tireless and exceptional efforts. In that regard, HSM proved to be a stateman.

However, his domestic policy is nothing but total failure. What is needed now as a policy priority could be summarized as:

1. National Reconciliation to ensure a cohesive society, good governance and promotion of federal structures and institutions-building of his government.

2. Elimination of Al-Shabab menace in the country.

3. Rebuilding of the infrastructure of the Capital City of Mogadishu and clearing the mess being created everytime it rains, which turns the City into water ponds of an inhabitable environment.

Ceaseless overseas travels by the President since he came to power are now paying off, shutting down any criticism against his foreign policy adventures. He is well advised now to address the acute domestic priorities that could bring his regime down, if not tackled with immediately.

4. Somalia is a clan society that require delicate balance amidst acute clan rivalries to seek harmonious coexistence in power and resources sharing.

5. Checks and balance of power between branches of government and their separation are among the areas of serious concern in HSM’s administration.
