POV Watch

Isn't the impression that the "Fulani War" was a pure Fulani-Hausa ethnic conflict a POV?--iFaqeer 22:27, Sep 15, 2004 (UTC)

Shaihu Manu!

To SimonP

Thanks to SimonP for the edit making the clarification I was seeking. I think he deserves an award. This is a slightly political point of view, but in this day and age, when the "fundamentalist" right-wing of Islam co-opts people like him, it is very important to point out that the right way to start a Jihad is by a legitimate leader chosen and/or recognized by a community; not by individuals.

PS: in case you are wondering about the heading above, it is the exclamation a Hausa-Fulani might utter where an English-speaking Westerner would go "Jesus Christ!" ("Manu" is a Hausa shortform/nickname for "Usman(u)") —iFaqeer | Talk to me! 20:16, Oct 1, 2004 (UTC)

Staring cleanup

Saw that this had a "wikify" tag, so I fixed the internal refs, and collected others. Re-wrote the introduction, but the body still needs a re-write for style and the adition/ streamlining of content.T L Miles (talk) 19:11, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
