nothing above the familia. - 09-04-2008, 02:30 PM

Well I am proud of my ´Fries´, ´Arabian´ heritage. (both people produce the best horses btw lol)

I don´t think in borders, my (fries)dutch ancestors were sailors/shipper and my (arabian) moroccan ancestors were nomads, hadj. when my fries fam came to amsterdam(holland) they were looked at as immigrants 120 years ago, nowaday the ´holland´ is synonomus for the netherlands, what was known as Holland and Friesland is now considered one....my arabian ancestors settled in Morocco after and they traveled all across africa and the middle-east, allmost a century ago some of my fam were on hadj but ended up in Malta.

nobody choose to be ´where´ they are now and ´what´ they are now , I´m just proud of my fam because we never basically are our own ´country´ lol, with our own history and we all had different ´nationalities´ even if we lived in the same ´country´ but most of the time not.







Yo Noodle about the ´free people´/Amazigh: I have read many things about them (probably have some ´Amazigh blood to lol) and what amazed me was that I couldn´t find where the originally came from(africa/middle-east) but people started calling themselves the free people after Shesshonq (forgive the spelling) the first libian/amazigh, Pharaoh of Egypt, 8 amazigh pharaohs followed after. u know that the amazigh live in the year 2977 +- right?

Here is the interesting and very controversial part, many people think I am mad for this theory but what the hell I´ll just drop it the bomb: Moses was an Amazigh. don´t laugh yet. he never called himself moses....the free people were slaves in egypt ones.

what was the first thing Sheshonq did when he became the pharaoh? indeed he took over the land which is now known as Palestine and Israel, Jordan etc. we are talking about 1000 BC time period...

now people call me crazy, but look at the EXTREMELY paralel lifes of Sheshonq and Moses, from infant and outsider to emperor, there is no evidence for an exodus, but we have evidence that thousands and thousands of people started calling themselves the ´free people´ after he became pharaoh, thats when the year count started and thats when Egypt/Khemet Changed forever.



there are a thousand reasons why I believe what I believe I recommend everyone that is interested in history to do some research about this u will notice it´s not just a wild theory. the knowledge and the wisdom of the sands tell us a lot.

Totally

One thing about Scotland though...lots of people seem to think we're not part of Britain? -.- I've seen lots of people think Britain = England...its pretty annoying. But if we become independant it wont bother me anymore
