An FBI advice list on how to prevent being scammed by these charity frauds . . . most especially concerning this Haitian disaster. . .

• Ask what percentage of the money you give actually reaches the needy. You also can designate how your donation is to be used.

• Don't ever donate cash. Make the check out to the name of the charity, not the person asking for money. And get a receipt with the name of the charity on it. Do NOT give your credit card number to telemarketers or use it on a Web site of a charity you have not checked out.

• If the person seeking your donation asks you to give more, that may be a sign that something is wrong. Legitimate charities are grateful, not demanding.

- . . . wonderful sermons . . . thanks

- I think I need to brainwash myself with those sermons . . .

There is physical evidence that Yele.org actually issues receipt for any donation that you make to them and also that it shows on your credit/debit card statement . . . meaning that at least you can trace it . . . somehow.

@ JeSoul,
The title of this thread which u labeled "That Ungodly, Unholy Book in the Bible called Songs of Solomon" is, in a nutshell, your perception of that book in the Bible. Also i have taken note of your EDIT #2, which you claim not to be against the book, But with regards to the Thread title and your Edit Notes for me it looks like you are holding a two (2) edge sword.

And dont get me wrong, I'm sincerely not comfortable in Spirit with the title of the thread as it is written because in a snap shot of the title it portrays a different message entirely from what you claim to have meant, Hence, if your Idea is the opposite I suggest the title be modified. With reference to the below post:

Always try to make sure that whatever message you are trying to pass across is not misunderstood.


@ No2Atheism,

Your entire post above looks like Politics, dont use me as a stepping stone to express your concern to the person in question.
I dont see any reason why u should speak on behalf of JeSoul as she do understand my point and the reason for my provocation and simply referred me to the former.

Hence, I overlook whatever you have posted above and will not respond to your post on this one. I will just deal with the poster, Thank you all the same.

. . . do you mean what i think u mean . . . .

- The bottomline is I think your post as regards Jesoul is defamatory . . .

- I know her personally, hence I know enough to know that your post as regards her is defamatory. . .

- If you take time to go through the thread you would see that your post which i responded to . . . is inappropriate . . .

- Do more research about Jesoul . . . then ask her whether i am just a faceless nairaland user

- Once again there are jokes and sarcasm inherent in my statements and jesouls. . .

- Please know more about people before making defamatory post . . .

- If i am outrightly violent against you . . .would i be talking about casting out the Pharasee Spirit . . . . . .

I dont see any reason why u should speak on behalf of JeSoul

I am speaking on her behalf because I know her outside of nairaland.

I apologise for any insulting statements I made towards you . . . please accept my apologies . . .

First and foremost, so called Aburi pact has always been a fraud that was perpetrated by ojukwu against an illiterate Gowon that could not read what he signed during the conference.on getting home,Awolowo and co thwarted the igbo plan qnd informed Gowon that Aburi was a secession plan by the igbo from nigeria.this is the root of igbo annoyance with yoruba.[/b]all the same credible wars are never won by "guerrillas" which the uniformed igbo armies were at that time.so nothing would have happened if the igbo didnt go to war with the nigeris government and her peole.however,the igbo would have even got a better place in our democracy rather than being treated like outcast !

[b]Edit:

- The highlighted statement is highly interesting and of high significance.

- Do you have further evidence for the statement highlighted above.

- I am interested in knowing more about the statement highlighted above.

if the report is true, what is the companies name . . .

- Thanks . . .


- Would give those links a check . . .

can someone please explain to me why i keep hearing the phrase over population . . . how exactly are over populated.

bawomolo:

Nigeria isn't a wealthy country when you consider per capita income.
we are overpopulated. We don't have a presence in haiti either

how are we over populated exactly . . . is that ur opinion backed up with facrs or is that wat the west says . . .

Beaf:

I will label his people anything I want. His people are his family who brought him up warped. They are thieves.
What has Mid West got to do with this, as well as the other crap about the West cheating the Mid West? Did I say any such thing or is something eating you?

- does that make it right . . .

bluespice:

they might have helped but not in large droves
moreso there aren't that many [b]honest NGO [/b]that have international presence

exactly the question is honest NGO . . .

@Jesoul

Which of Paul Washer's messages should I start with . . . there is a lot of them . . . an i sincerely do not know where to start from . . .

N.I.Gboi:

you got it right. At times, i feel the US military are trying to make more money for the government (individuals) and maybe expand the US 'territory'

thanks for correcting my grammatical blunder . . .

Bandit C.:

to dreamara, yeah i sound like a black nazi nigerian. Where have you been all these years, seeing US carrying out airstrikes that wipe out innocent families at a go, huh? Where are your sympathies for those who have died because of unjust wars based on lies and boosting self ego. Where is your sympathy for children dying in iraq, and people who have no more hope in life just because of some evil wars, eh.

Sorry to shock you but a lot of my friends here are US soldiers and they are totally tired of these wars driven by pure nonsense patriotism and self importance. They wanna go home.

Soldiers returning in body bags is not what i derive joy in but bitter reality. If the tool, called Iyke keeps promoting US might on these boards, i 'll keep reminding him of it's painful consequences which is ''soldiers returning in body bags''. Sorry for the bitter truth. Wars and invading other peoples' Homelands would never make you safe rather keep hurting you.

Don't let your blatant likeness of US remove you from the reality that US went from a country the whole world rallied behind on 9.11. to a country terrorizing every single nation on earth.

You think i wish US harm? Wait till you get over to europe. I just tell it as it is, hate it or love it, your choice.

- The highlighted part is the whole basis of US military atttitude . . .

- War is money to them . .

- Life means nothing to them  . . .

- I suspect that they sometimes instigate wars simply to make money . . .

- People abeg try and aid the Haitans anyway you can . . . those people have gone through a lot . . .

- Try and send your donations to organisations that you are confident would really use the money for Haitans . . .

Cus I would not be suprised that some organisations might actually end up using the donations for their administrative nonsense which in the end short-changes the Haitans. . .

Beaf:

Is it not the same North that organises military coups? The way to resolve this once and for all is for the country to split.

I wonder o . . .

why do i have a feeling that Northern apologists are the ones advocating for a coup knowing that such a coup would allow the North to once again rule the country for an indefinite number of times . . .

JeSoul:

Maven, fabulous does not begin to describe you 

Is this a Sister - Sister no mens allowed kinda chat or wat . . . . . . me I am a gbeborun . . .

macroworld:

Bandit C, Thanks, even full American citizen's want some answers to establish their Country is not playing up. I personally think the best way to clear this whole air is for a thorough investigation which is independent of US and Nigeria. At the end of the day integrity must prevail.

The other aspect of this case that is of concern is:

1. If Haskell's claim of some smartly dressed guy helping the suspected bomber on the plane was wrong>
   a) Why has the smartly dressed guy not come forward and claim who he was and he is not an Agent?
   b) Why has the KLM/ Delta Staff an the final boarding gate not come forward and tell of his/her story?
   c) Why has Amsterdam/ Schipol not released the CCTV footage of Mr. Heskell's case that that mutallab was helped by a suspected agent?

2. Another passenger claimed someone was filming in the aircraft>
   a) Who was this person ?
   b) If this person was filming coincidentally, he would have come forward or sold his footage to the press for some serious money, nothing is forthcoming.
   c) Was the person filming had a crystal ball and knew something dramatic was going to happen on the flight ?

3. The other person that Haskell claimed was also arrested throws up some calls for concern.
    a) Who was this Indian guy whose bag was sniffed and arrested. As soon as he was sniffed, Haskell claimed they were told to immediately evacuate the area. This suggests bomb was found in his hand luggage, I would guess ?
     b) Why was his arrest not aired by the press but only Mutallab's?
     c) Haskell claimed FBI initially did not make a claim that a second person was arrested. Later on Haskell claimed FBI admitted ( after days) that someone else was arrested. Haskell now claimed that story have now changed and FBI is now claiming the person arrested was not travelling on that same plane?
     d) Could this be possible, when initially Haskell claimed all the passengers coming off the flight was separated for interrogation/ interviewing by FBI and this was when they suddenly brough sniffer dogs and this Indian man standing metres away from Haskell was sniffed and Interrogated and arrested?

4. One thinking is why would mutallab or those supposedly assisting him not want him to go through with his passport at Amsterdam. Could it be that they would send his name through on the manifest to US for pre-flight clearance and this would be matched with the Interest list by Homeland security ( which his name is on). I believe this is the usual practice ? Did US confirm that his name was sent through on the manifest before the flight took off.

There is so much silence over the nitty gritty of this case and this is meant to be a major issue. My argument is Nigerian government should be asking questions on this and other associated issues. Except if people just want to let things go, I do not think anyonehas got to the bottom of this.  

if the person is filming Farouk . . .then does that not bring up the possibility that the person knew before hand that the bomb would not work  . . . or does it make sense to film something knowing that you and the film might not even survive . . .

Tsiya:

Will anyone be suprise with what the say? After all they still believe Oduduwa came from the sky

@Tsiya

- our supposedly northern friend . . .what is bitting u . . .

- I hope you are not worried that you would no longer have access to free crude oil and federal character job appointment or what . . .

dreamara:

Dude.I've got two words for you:SHAAAAARRRRRAAAPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!You sound like a black Nazi Nigerian!!!

- Who is black nazi nigerian.

JeSoul:

This was a very very good read! thanks Seeker.


And No2A, I def caught your entries too and you're right on the money when you say a lot of the problem arises because of the degenerate state of our minds when we read that book.

Exactly . . . that is why I personally know that if pregnancy is wirelessly obtained merely by the thoughts of a man . . . I would have become a Biological Father by now . . cus damn . . . my mind  needs to be thoroughly formated, null-written, then formatted again and then washed with bleach and then finally rebooted.

@Jesoul . . . I have read the emails . . . hence I am waiting for the response to the other emails . . .
