    @normandavies76035 years ago A really hard life endured by the nomadic peoples of the north Africa. The Sahara may have been a paradise many thousands of years ago, but, not in our times. Knowledge of the desert helps the people and what knowledge these nomads have.

    @julieearp95494 years ago The fight for water will be the Third World War, even Kofi Annan said that. All I know is that I miss living in Mauritania. Hard environment but amazing people. 100% Muslim, but they still accepted me as a peace corps volunteer. And they live represent Islam so well. If someone came to my host family, they could stay as long as they wanted. Water was the first thing offered, then a shower, food , and tea. No one stole anything. I left my wallet w passport, $$$ and identity in a taxi twice in the capital and it got returned. Even if someone was poor, they still gave to someone that was homeless or stricken by polio. That is the Islam I have experienced and Mauritanians showed me the good part. Mashallah, I miss you Mauritanians. ... 2
