[quote author=Animegirl post=110519397] toothless bull dog. Biden and Barack Obama, I dont see any difference, weak leaders. This single act of Putin, just show the weakness of U.S.A. My biggest fear now, I don't pray for China to invade Taiwan, is going to be bloody. China that worship "Dragon" Now I miss Trump. Trump is a diehard fan of Putin. |

Religion / The Nation Of Israel by Philipumukoro(m): 12:05pm On May 14, 2021 |
I was going to cry when I read this speech from the Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu, but at the end I said, "Glory to the God of Israel" Let's read together: Mr. Netanyahu said: Only 70 years ago! The Jews were taken to slaughter like sheep. � 60 years ago! � no country. No Army. Seven Arab countries declared war on the small Jewish state, only a few hours after its creation! � we were 650,000 Jews against the many millions in the Arab world! There was no strong IDF(Israel Defense Forces). No powerful air force to save us but only brave Jewish people with nowhere else to go. �Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, Egypt, Libya, Saudi Arabia all attacked at the same time. �the country that the United Nations gave us was a 65 % desert. � 35 years ago! We fought the three most Powerful armies in the middle east, and we swept them in six days. We fought against various coalitions of Arab countries, which had modern armies and many Soviet weapons, and we have always beaten them! Today we have: � a State (Country) � an Army, � a Powerful Air Force, � A State-of-the-Art Economy with exports worth billions of dollars. � Intel - Microsoft - ibm & many high-tech companies develop cutting edge products in Israel � our doctors receive awards for medical research. � we make the desert bloom, and sell oranges, flowers and vegetables all over the world. � Israel has sent its own satellites into space! � three satellites at the same time! � We are proud to be at the same rank as: � The United States, which has 250 million inhabitants, � Russia, which has 200 million inhabitants, � China, which has 1.3 billion inhabitants; � Europeans - France, Great Britain, Germany - with 350 million inhabitants. � the only countries in the world to send objects into space! � and say that only 60 years ago, � we were led, ashamed and hopeless, to slaughter! � we have experienced the smoking ruins of Europe, � we have won our wars here in Israel with less than nothing � we built our little "Empire" from nothing. Who's Hamas to scare me? � to terrify me? � you make me laugh! � Passover was celebrated; Let's not forget what Passover is: � we survived Pharaoh, � we survived the Greeks, � we survived the Romans, � we survived the inquisition in Spain, � we have the pogroms in Russia, � we survived Hitler, � we survived the Germans, � we survived the Holocaust, � we survived the armies of seven Arab countries, � we survived Saddam. � we will survive the enemies present Think of any time in human history ⚠ Think about it, for us, the Jewish people, � the situation has never been better! � then let's face the world, Let us remember: � all nations, empires or cultures � who once tried to destroy us, � no longer exist today - while we still live! � Egypt? � Babylon? � the Greeks? � Alexander of Macedonia? � The Romans? (does anyone still speak Latin these days? ) � The Third Reich? And look at us � The slaves of Egypt, � The People of Moses � The Nation of the Bible, � We are still here, And Hebrew is still the official language of the State of Israel today: � from the time of the Bible and now! � Arabs don't know yet, � but they will learn that there is a God. � as long as we keep our identity, we are forever. So forgive us for not worrying, � not to cry, � not to be afraid. � things are fine here. � they could certainly get better, However: � Don't believe the media, � they don't tell you alot of good things about Israel � celebrations continue to take place in Israel, � people continue to live, � people keep coming out, � people continue to see friends. Some claim our morale is low. � so what? Only because we mourn our deaths while our enemies rejoice in the blood shed & war. � that is why we will win, in the end. The God of Israel created the Heaven's and the Earth. The Guardian of Israel never slumbers or sleep! The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Forward this speech to the whole community, � and to people around the world. � they are part of our strength Share this Post with your family, friends and colleagues ����������������� P.S...

I just moved to the States last year after two years of being married to my wife. To be precise. I barely moved here 6 months and I have already applied for one of their colleges to study cinematography. First, I got my green card. Second, I have applied for their student aid and they have reviewed my application which they said they will get back to my school for further information. This will be my second degree. 1 Like |

Happened: I’ve noticed this forum for a very long time that they do not appreciate literature, unless the topic has to do with nudity, snake related article, soccer (which I am not against), music, and other frivolities. In America here I am, literature is sacrosanct. Please whoever is the director of this forum try to give attention to literature as much as you give to other genres on this forum. Thank you. 2 Likes |
Literature / This Is How A Poetic Madness Goes. by Philipumukoro(m): 9:47pm On May 09, 2021 |
ALOAGOA, MY FRIEND, WAS A GREAT MAN. Sometime in April, 2001, around somewhere in west Africa I met a man. In African village, anything can happen just as you have anticipated. Well, this is how my story began. Long ago when tigers used to smoke, I took an oath with an old man in the dead of night. This creature, whom I have not seen till date since both of us went on our separate ways after we undertook an oath of secrecy. The oath began with red liquid; a sacrifice so to speak. Listen, I have watched a man before dug his own grave in a forest of thousand demons. But the man in question told me he had buried ten offspring of his and none left to bury his carcass. I am the only poet of a dramatic madness left in my kind; others died by claiming too-know-attitude. A goat had one time in past sued my uncle for a sheer comparison: “Philip, you are as stubborn as a goat” I slapped my first teacher at the age of 5. When I got to 15, I collected my teacher's lady. But Aloagoa my friend was a great man. He told me, under a willows tree, that he would love to become a literature writer, so that he could right the wrong in the society. But his demented father killed him at the age of 16. (Your passion, your profession.) Then, eventually, I saw I Aloagoa again under the same willows tree a decade later, crying out like a prophet in the wilderness: “Eli, EIi, Lama Sabachthani.” Without mincing words. Aloagoa was trying to fight his demon. It was obvious to the blind and audible to the deaf that the handwriting on king Belshazzar’s wall: “mene mene tekel upharsin” needed no further explanation. History doesn’t always repeat itself. Sometimes it just shouts: “why can’t you just listen to me.” But Aloagoa my friend had become a shadow of himself; he looked haggard, wore two shoes that were not fellows, then managed to uttered some incoherent words that had bottled up in his heart for far too long amidst of tears that brimmed in his eyes. He said, “I had, but tailed a dirge singer who concealed the gulf between world of the dead and the living. I have become a killing mechine from the day an owl killed my vulture.” The night is nobody's friend. He ended up lamenting profusely amidst the following words: “Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.” The oath. We live in a fast-fading world. There is nothing in this life that is worth dying for, and none is worth living for but the good deed of man. In fact, we live in a cruel world; and we are in a fast lane. as unbelievable as it sounds. And this is not the actual world where you do the right thing, act the right way, pour your heart and soul to help other in need and expect the same in return. In fact, you may not get nothing good, whatsoever, but getting hurt in the long run by setting your expectations so high in futility is inevitable. So, in African forest: either you kill, or you are being killed. So, choose one! My friend, Aloagoa, had a son whom I don’t want to talk about. At that age? And so what! No man has fought his community and won. The society made you... fool! Yes. The old man entered an oath with me, that in my entire life I should not tell anyboby(not even Aloagoa's son), the secret he had told me that fateful night. But the Achiles' heel. I had slaughtered alot of red head-chickens , at feast and festival with my grand-mother's knives. But nothing else shall remind me of bloodshed than that. Please do not kill a man who has not said anything from his mouth to fault you. Remember that in every family, there is a witch, or a bad blood. Amongst twelve, Jesus had Judas— his disciple. The oath I kept for a very long time. But who among you don’t know that “patience” has an expiration date? “Life is a tale told by two idiots,” I said to the old man. “Watch your tongue boy, ” he cautioned. But I continued anyway without minding if his cow was gored. “Sir, we live in a world where morons are barons; a world where thieves are chiefs. In fact, it makes one to ponder and ask: ‘What is the meaning of this life?’ You came into this world naked, crying that you don’t have anything. Then you began to labour effortlessly to acquire as much as you can either by hook means, or by crook means, and but only to leave this world empty without any of the things you have gotten. It makes no sense!” The old man slit Aloagoa's throat because... the oath. Yes the oath. Let me school your kindergarten mind. Take a picture of a hanging rabbit before you join a killer squard or a suicide bomber. Well, one day for the debtor, so many days for the creditor. Aloagoa was killed because his father caught him where he was... The oath! |

Literature / Poem by Philipumukoro(m): 6:23am On Apr 27, 2021 |
THE VIRUS IS MAN-MADE At the threshold of fate: To be, or not to be. A virus was nursed and doctored By unknown serial killer At a dawn of a new decade. Killing both high and low. Without anytime soon, to slow. In my quizzical glare, ten thousand fell. Like the seeds by the roadside. Which silent modern science. And the world still fidgeting, Like med students before cadavers. No more lab rats but human experiments. Does earth now loathe carcasses Like a vulture that is over fed? Because we are all vulnerable To this serial killer! But where is our mount Zion? For how long does God really care? And where did we go wrong? Or, this is a purge — That was long overdue? Yet no clue to the cause-effect. Twenty first century — no vaccines! The gods are not to blame! For every dog has its day. And for every man is his own architect. But God is not a man! He tempts not, but tests. This is an epistle of hope. You must stay alive to telltales, Only if you adhere to the commandments. As the Romans do to the Papacy! Because, this too shall pass! Like the Spanish flu of yesteryears! But first, we must turn to our Maker. The only hope for mankind! - Umukoro Philip. [color=#770077][/color] |
