 Politics › Re: Nigeria's Pan-african Movement Presents BABA BUNTU, The Renowned Pan-africanist! by jhubril(m): 8:23pm On Dec 06, 2015 |
The madness called pan-Africanism holds true for idiotic and ego-driven scum like you guys. What is Pan-Africanism? Some unfounded baseless empty struggle for imaginary liberation. Wake up buffon,this is the 21st century. Embrace science and technology! Support the movement for the universal brotherhood of mankind! |

| Foreign Affairs › Bombing Syria To Save Syria:some Reflection On The New Western Coalition. by jhubril(op): 10:15pm On Dec 04, 2015 |
BOMBING SYRIA TO SAVE SYRIA:SOME REFLECTION ON THE NEW WESTERN COALITION. Instead of standing alone without its key European ally,the US has warmly received the UK in its air campaign against ISIL,adding a more serious weight to what is now a global coalition against violent extremism. But this is clearly unconnected with the aim of this article looking at the tragic consequences such action will bring to Syrians who are already exhausted by war. Rather than celebrate some pro-active measure underlined by the recurring theme of self-defense in international relations,it is extremely important to assess the profits this new ebullient coalition stand to make in war-torn Syria. I would like to make clear that,in 2013,the US president,Barack Obama,mounted tension on the international scene on the basis of some "red line". At that time there was an increasing urge to carry out a surgical operation in Syria against the Assad regime. There are two ways to understand what happened;one is to be aware that Obama drew what he called "an international red line" for Assad;and the other is to know that Assad crossed the red line after what was allegedly the use of chemical weapon against unharmed civilians by the regime. The latter's act,as it was understood,was clearly the green light eagerly needed to proceed with military action,and any corresponding event,if there was to be,would not only justify the operation but also strengthen the common resolve to ultimately effect regime change in war-torn Syria. But that was never going to happen as China,Russian and Iran shored up their support for the troubled president. And basically,it all seemed that homeland security was not going to be a major cause for concern in 2013. For all they cared ISIS could wreck more havoc on the regime as long as it is in line with intelligence plans,and more opposition was going to increase the gradual destruction of an enemy institution. Washington must do nothing but pussy-footing! Anyone who does not understand why the earliest move to bomb Syria failed as Congress disapproved and as the British parliament turned down the initial proposal,may not be aware that there was no genuine reason to go to Syria. This may have been based on the lack of profit or,at best,a strategy to buy enough time for its desire to see Assad go down the drain. Whatever the reason or pretense,it will be unfair to turn a blind eye to the hypocrisy of the US or UK involvement with Syria,any day. Another step further to see the coalition in its true light must surely begin by highlighting fact about Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait and the subsequent chemical attack on the Kurds. They once told us that it was right to use chemical weapon in Kuwait;but doing same in Syria amounted to war crime. Hypocrisy is the right word for a country as morally bankrupt as the United States of America! As if that is not enough, we have not forgotten that the invasion of the two East Asian countries,Pakistan and Afghanistan,following the 9/11,left much to be desired. It is easy to see what became of the invaded countries after their departure. The countries are what can now be called a small corner of hell. More's the pity! L.J |

The National Cake( One Act Play) The action unfolds at Bisi's compound. Dawn approaches and the chill from the street creates a very warm atmosphere. Bisi: (puffing a long cigarette)Chop make I chop na wetin da town be that. Who no go wan chop if spoon da him hand? And they talk se person we go follow devil chop,him spoon go long. This our country no be America or China where u go da fear to steal money from treasury. If you wan chop make you chop quick quick.

I have taken this blessed morning from the hands of God as a perfect gift. It is,therefore,at this moment of thanksgiving that I have been inspired by the unending quest for a better world to prepare a list of good reads for those who want to start fighting today for a better future. They are books that attest excellence and intellectual notoriety,and like a bill awaiting enactment it might be necessary to do a first reading,a second reading,and a third reading. Here comes the list: 1. Why The West Rules--For Now,by a Stanford University History/Archeology Professor,Ian Morris. 2. The Wealth and Poverty of Nations,by an emeritus Professor of History and Economics,David S. Landes. 3. Why Nations Fail,by two renowned economists,Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robbinson. 4. The End of Poverty,by a renowned economist, Jeffery D. Sachs. 5. The Mystery of Capital,by Hernando de Soto who is the author of two major books on economic and political development: The Other Path, published in 1986, and The Mystery of Capital, published in the year 2000. 6. Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism,by the brilliant revolutionary and theoretician, Vladmir Lenin. This one book is his most popular work. 7. From Third World To First,by Lee Kwa Yew. This is a great read laying bare the strategies and plans which transformed Singapore. 8. Dead Aid,by a famous African economist and scholar, Dambisa Moyo. It is a flood of vitriolic theses revealing the death of aid as strategy for development. This book was once criticised by Bill Gates. 9. White Cargo:A forgotten History of Britain's WHITE Slaves. This book tells us a great about the IRISH SLAVERY. It introduced me to a deep contemplation on the nature of the African slavery. Slavery,I have concluded,is never an excuse for our position in life. The Irish were once slaves;that did not hinder them at all. 10. African Philosophy,by a Unilag Professor,KC Anyawu. This book tries to explain the major problems of constructing a valid philosophy in Africa. It asks ,is there an entity called the African philosophy? It is ground between the emotional plea for an African philosophy and the rational rejection of an African philosophy. 2 Likes 2 Shares

I strongly recommend this book: Why The West Rules For Now,by Ian Morris. It a book of great synthesis touching upon numerous factors that contribute to Western lead. IQ and other controversial topics are analyzed thoroughly. But I must confess that from the first to the last page nothing of spectacular importance is said about Africa. Just passing remarks made to accompany footnotes. A whole chapter contains several predictions about the future;there the author admits if the western lead is no more,the next will most likely emanate from China as it continues to unleash its potentials. * This prediction excites considerable laughter when he says that the world should be prepared for its new language: Chinese. |

It's the first time in decades that a NATO country has shot down a Russian or Soviet war plane, and the first plane Russia has lost since it began its campaign in Syria.

Happening Now: RUSSIA SUSPENDS MILITARY COORPORATION WITH TURKEY. Russia's defence ministry has announced suspension of military cooperation with Turkey and Sergey Lavrov, foreign minister, has cancelled a planned trip to Turkey following the downing of a Russian warplane near the Turkey-Syria border on Tuesday. The Russian Sukhoi Su-24 warplane was shot down for allegedly violating Turkish airspace, angering Russia's President Vladimir Putin, who compared the incident to being "stabbed in the back". Russia also warned its citizens not to travel to Turkey, saying it was unsafe, and deployed a warship to the coastline near where the plane crashed. The plane crashed in Syrian territory in Latakia's Yamadi village. Aljazeera |
