Talk:Haroun (Fadhiweyn)

Latest comment: 2 years ago by Elinruby in topic Trojan horse

Nelson Daily News edit

This is a small town newspaper in British Columbia. Possibly it was reprinting something from elsewhere, but I do not automatically accept that it was a reliable source for events in Somaliland. I have therefore removed the following text: "According to Nelson Daily News, Faarax Sugulle was the head of the Haroun."

Unclear text edit

"The Darawiish consisted of roughly a dozen administrative divisions. The haroun was when they would all assemble for political discussion:[1]

Most of the forts were evacuated before assault; the Mullah's haroun had ceased to be a rallying-point, and the dervish forces dispersed and were defeated

"

Unclear if Bartlett is the source for the blockquote or the relationship of the blockquote to the text above it. Elinruby (talk) 09:23, 11 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Trojan horse edit

The phrase has a specific meaning and is not usually used to denote disinformation and deception in general, as seems to be the case here. Elinruby (talk) 09:31, 11 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
